Excerpts from a public notice board in the not-so-distant future. Down with undead monsters!!! Ever since the rise of Resurrection Technology, the world has run amok with undead “pets.” Skeletal and zombie predators represent a serious danger to our ecosystem. They must be stopped! Resurrection Technology for all! Skeletons don’t kill people. Bad skeleton trainers […]
Another Sunday post borrowed shamelessly from XKCD. I think this one might actually be scientifically accurate due to being written by an actual scientist doing science stuff. It looks like the kind of thing that would happen in 2021.
It’s against the rules. I’m only here to observe. But, I have to. Running over, I grab the reins and tie them to the edge of the post just in time for the reluctant law officer to jump on the horse and…. He doesn’t really want to chase down the person he’s been tasked to […]

A rainbow sky melts down onto sparkling flowers that exude sweet smells, like candy and summertime and home. All around us, the fairies of […]
Writing is hard, even at the best of times. It’s like digging deep beneath the surface of soul and skin, drawing blood, occasionally hitting bone with lightning flashes of pain. Once you have enough to get started, maybe, you pause to look at what you’ve done. You clean it off as best you can, hiding […]
“Why did you decide to have me?” Monica pauses in the middle of the book she was reading. Her hands fall to her sides while she struggles with what to say. “God gave you to us as a precious gift from heaven.” In other words, they weren’t planning to have a child. But that was […]
