My Apocrypha 2: Goof on the Roof
Goof on the Roof was a Waynesville-St. Robert phenomenon. I’m not sure how many of you people remember this, you people who were there in ’89. It was in the paper, in the ads. There was commercial time bought from the radio station, KJPW. They played country, country & western, and me and Less always…

The Shieldmaidens 14: Lioness
And I bow as I step onto the dance floor, and the strings strain, and the bodies around us move. Bodies of abusers and saviors. Rose dances with Olsen, Destiny with Tiger. The music plays, we all twirl, and I take each of the next stories out onto the floor. The waltz is the most…

Rise of the Storyteller 31: Call Backs
I was leaning against the wall in the hallway before school. There were kids everywhere. Teachers. There were colors and textures, hair and eyes, and all of it made of the world a swift moving wave of emotions and sensations that brought my head to swimming.

Rise of the Storyteller 30: The Four Queens
I won’t talk about my sophomore year. I plotted my own death three times that year. I ran with the worst people I could find. I hurt people, and myself. I dated a spattering of girls I left behind me like a carpet of broken hearts. I had been abandoned and it was drying me…
