She Crazy

A short story on madness and truth — “She’s going through that phase again,” said Mom to Dad, shaking her head. Mom didn’t know I could eavesdrop on their conversations late at night. She was clueless about many things in life, but that specific thing was the one thing I needed her to believe. However, she didn’t. Sofia…

The Black Walnut Tree

A short story about distant memories — “One, two, three, four, five,” I can still hear my mom say in the kitchen while counting crackers and packing them into our lunch bags before we left for school. I stare at the poor family in northwest Oklahoma from the top branch of the black walnut tree. The tree…

Climbing Up

A Short Pride Story “Let’s go for a walk, Marie,” Brian said tugging his hair behind his ear. He did that every time he had to either confess something or apologize, or both, his sister mused. “Ok,” Marie said with a nod. The two siblings walked through a path that…

The Third Glass of Wine

A Thanksgiving Story — “Maggie,” Justin yelled as he climbed down the front porch steps. “Wait!” Maggie turned around. “What is it?” “You can’t just leave.” Maggie cocked an eyebrow. “Oh, really? Watch me.” She resumed her fast walking out of that place and quickly got to her Kia Sportage. Justin stopped her from…

Extra

A 100-word short story “That'll cost you extra,” the hotel manager mumbles as I head to the luxury sauna. “The hot stones,” he adds, pointing to my tray. “It didn’t before,” I snap. He recedes, eyes drooping. Who’s going to stop me after all? They all knew about Josh’s little…

The Visitor

A short story about the unexpected — “Again?” Jocelyn mumbled while drying the dishes. She had lost count of how many times the tall woman in a black dress and black veil had walked around her property, most precisely close to the porch. The mysterious woman with a stern look on her face would stare at Jocelyn’s…

2029 — What Lies Within

A teenage view of an unexpected epidemic — September 17th, 2029 “It’s everywhere now,” Mom says in panic mode, rubbing her sweating forehead. She rushes to the two-door refrigerator and commands as she opens it, “throw them all away, Aimee.” “What do you mean, Mom?” I ask, my eyes bugged. “It’s all contaminated,” she says. “The CDC just…

Yet You Don’t Believe in Miracles

A prose poem about life’s magic — A group of nurturing and self-sustained cells have brought you into this world. Smiles and tears greeted you when you first opened your eyes, and yet you don’t believe in miracles. Every day the sun and the moon trade places, giving each other space in their own glory. Yet you…

What These Curves Won’t Tell You

A Ballad of Weight-Related Struggles — Body image — what a profitable industry! Everything we need to learn on how to fit in, literally. From gyms and exercise programs to body shapers, miracle shakes, supplements, and vitamins. They definitely have a lot to say to women (and to men as well)! But wouldn’t it be amazing…
