    After what Ronin did in front of Cheech, things had to change, and Cheech was going to make sure they did. See, all of the guys in the dorm treated me as if I was a cute pet. They saw me whining about a girl, saw that I couldn’t land a lay, and they just…

    Cheech and I went to Lambert’s. It’s a restaurant out near Branson. Your meal is brought to you in a large steel pan. The meal itself is refillable. If you eat your entire pork steak, they will bring you another. Every meal comes with two sides. They walk around with extras, fried okra, fried potatoes.…

    I didn’t go to my Senior prom. I felt trapped by Mary into going with her and I couldn’t make myself do it. Prom night I spent at Harvard’s house playing Dungeons and Dragons and stick fighting. After the game, we turned off every light in his house and hid. He stayed downstairs with Brett…

    This is the story of a broken girl crumbling. This is the story of a single garment. This is a story about Ronin, I guess, and a driveway. This is a story of the Waynesville High School Mafia. The Mafia was started by accident, I guess. A slip of the tongue made by an, at…

    Well, we haven’t done one in a while, so we’re going to do another blog blast. Here are some lost stories, violent, beautiful, and at times, hilarious, about things that happened in my life that don’t really fit in any category. I will be releasing one a day at 8:00 p.m. until they’re done. Now…

    The story I just told you is ugly, evil, and repugnant, and I tried not to tell it. I cared about my cousins and I didn’t want them to know what their dad was, because they had such a great relationship and he was such a good dad. Facebook will do that to you. It…

    “Is this what they look like now?” I asked Grandma Mocking. It had been over two years since I had been back to Waynesville to see anyone, and I chose to start my attack here. “Yup, that is them. There is sweet Dewdrop and that is Ball’s Little Man. You would be so proud of…

    I’m at home. Just got out of Pizza Hut and I have a full belly. No one around at all. Quiet, til he pulls up, and I hear Billy Joel. The door is open before the knock. He steps in and puts his hands on his waist and looks at his feet. “Get in the…

    No one ever to my knowledge touched his medicine tray. We all knew where it sat. There was a kinda wide hallway that went from the front of the house to the back. Off that hallway was the tiny bathroom. Right as you entered it, to the left sat a chest of drawers. On top…

    I’m like one of those video games where your gun never runs out of ammo. It’s 5:45 a.m. but I’ve only been writing for seven hours. I will finish this story today. I do not yet see the end, but I can’t really do much more of this. This much ugly and this much evil…
