Children of Two Worlds – 4.2
Chapter 4, Part 2 They crowded into Braxton’s SUV and Sam, still mistrustful, took the motorcycle. Abigail sat on Cassie’s lap, huddled in her arms. Images of Mariah’s limp form replayed over and over in Cassie’s numb mind. If she had been there, she could have helped. If she had called immediately, maybe they would … Continue reading Children of Two Worlds – 4.2

Why Writers are like Gandalf
Howdy! I had this epiphany this morning on my way to an eye doctor's appointment. I was driving along thinking about the writing I wanted to get done today, which somehow transitioned to debating how I would fare during an adventure, which somehow transitioned thinking about Gandalf and how he got Bilbo to join Thorin … Continue reading Why Writers are like Gandalf
Children of Two Worlds – 3.4
Chapter 3, Part 4 “My name is Doctor Charles Braxton.” Cassie automatically stuck her hand out. After withdrawing it from Braxton’s firm shake, she shoved her hands in the back pockets of her shredded jeans. “So you said something about explaining?” she asked. “Right!
