Two 5-word stories… or one?
Me trying to blog this week... is rough, I'll tell ya. But, after staring at the blinking type cursor for twenty minutes while daydreaming about my next gas station celebrity encounter, something quite magical happened... I typed five words. But then I kept deleting and re-typing them. But then... I wrote them twice! And then... …
Just another lil’ something I wrote.
Also for a creative writing class! So, what did you guys think of the first short story I wrote? Hopefully, you liked it, and you're ready for another one!

Just a lil’ something I wrote.
For my creative writing class. Hey, homedogs! I don't know why, but my computer browser always wants to correct "homedogs" to "homologs"... But, anyway, I'm back this week with... not one, but TWO short stories I wrote for my creativity class focused on writing! This one's gonna be the first, and it went off a …
Reading Red, part 5.
THIS IS IT... THE FINAL PART. After part 1, part 2, part 3, and part 4... it has come time to either kill off or save our main character of Red, Anna. This has honestly been a great journey and I've learned a lot in making these audio readings for you guys, so I hope …

And now we continue with reading my short scary story, Red. https://youtu.be/Fu5__xrtYFs Red, part 4. I screamed out and shot my eyes open. I was forced to see him standing over …

Oh, and here's part 2 and 1 if you think you missed anything! https://youtu.be/JF7QzUx12a4 Red, Part 3. My cries had softened by now and I could begin to hear him shuffle around my side once more. “You know,” …
Reading Red, part 2.
Hey y'all, welcome back to my blog and our series (see part 1 here if you missed it!) of Reading Red, where we read and enjoy a hand-crafted horror short story I wrote myself about 2... actually 3 years ago (happy belated new year...).

Reading Red, part 1.
Yeah guys, I told you I was working hard on something special!!! So, remember how I got a halfway decent microphone a few days/weeks ago??? Well, I finally put it to use! Not with an entire novel audiobook yet, but still. I recorded a little something! A little something... called Red. A short (horror) story …
A short story writing prompt
Well, I had to take my laptop in for repair last Friday, and I still haven't heard back about it. I miss it so much. So, also, that unfortunately means I don't have a laptop to work on during the day. Luckily, my sister has been lending me her work laptop at night, but by …
