Sudden Turn Leo Driver Twisting and turning—God, how did I get here? Oh, I remember. I was walking home like always. It was dark—it was always dark. Looking back, it was stupid to complain about the walk. At least I knew where I was—now I don’t. All it took was a slip, just one. IContinue reading “Spook-tober 2025: Day 7”

Spook-tober 2025, Day #3
Twisted Nostalgia, by Amber Averay Why is it that the more we have, the unhappier we are? Is it the build up of pressure that comes with every achievement reached? The need to have more, to push ourselves harder, to never accept what we have as the best for us? I see people who buyContinue reading “Spook-tober 2025, Day #3”
FWIMC: Part Two
Mystery As I drew closer to the door, my nerves sang with a tension I’d not felt before. The path was dark and foreboding, but with every step I took it felt like a veil was being lifted, and the house I knew and remembered came into focus. I blinked several times, because my brainContinue reading “FWIMC: Part Two”
25 Days of Terror
Day 2 The Mix Up His favorite color used to be green–now it was blue. It seemed like such a small thing, but as his twin–I would know.

Danger Coming to Pass
She hadn’t seen the signs before it was too late, and now she was fleeing for her–how did she let everything come this far? How had she been so naive?

Spook-tober: Day 16
Fatigue by Elizabeth Averay Sun glaring and hot, it bears down on dry cracked desert. Nothing but sand as far as the eye can see. Nothing to drink, no shade, just suffocating heat and sand. How did I get here, I don’t know. The last thing I remember is going skydiving. It was a birthdayContinue reading “Spook-tober: Day 16”
Spook-tober: Day 15
Smouldering by Elizabeth Averay Running, running, running. Can’t stop. Must keep going. Have to make it. Not allowed to fail. To fail is to die – that’s what Granddad always says. So I keep running. I have to, they are after me. Two days ago I showed them what it’s like to be under ‘fire’.Continue reading “Spook-tober: Day 15”
Spook-tober: Day 14
Autumn Nights by Amber Averay Check out Amber’s Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/TheEnchantmentSeries Abby sat on the verandah, wrapped in a blanket and lost in a thick book. Dusk had settled in, and a light rain was falling, pattering against the tin roof with that soothing sound she’d always loved. A gentle wind stirred, carrying in its fingersContinue reading “Spook-tober: Day 14”
Golden
He didn’t want to be like everyone else. He’d been raised to be poised perfect, and professional, but inside he was none of those things. He loved his family with all his heart, but their expectations were crushing and unrealistic. He wanted to change all of that. He wanted to be free to make hisContinue reading “Golden”
