  1. Raziel accepts his newest assignment. A pond. Others have failed to unlock its mysteries. Unlike other places touched by magic. Its silent. The more he digs, the more he realizes there is something hidden inside. Something that can only be fully understood if he goes in.

    Choices

    I knock softly. In my other hand the veil’s cloth buzzes. It's a constant current, almost like static due to its direct connection to the other side. Its got a weight to it too, the fabric itself was soft, like silk. It never chaffed the skin, but its texture felt almost like liquid. It stung my palm, made my stomach tighten with nausea. Every second reminding me what I was. The door handle turns, heavily creaking as the door only opens a crack. “What?” I keep my eyes on the do
  3. Ouch.. the abrupt end of this had me feeling like I was physically yanked out of the story. Don’t get me wrong I love the immersive picture you have painted of the crew, and their work. The problem that is about to arrive. I don’t want to leave. I want to keep reading. The humour has me cackling in my living room, and I am invested in their retirement list.

    Chapter 1

    Really enjoyed this small snap shot of Lee and Toby. Felt like I could feel their tension but also their history. Showing us how they knew each and how they ended up here... I wonder about the lab and their uni days. Would have loved to see more of that before as well. Overall very descriptive and engaging. So glad they found their safe place.
  5. Happy Giving of the Thanks 😜 Dailylight Savings Time, BIG SIGH. Can't say I hate it but I can't say I enjoy the adjustments that come with the change. I just let my phone change to the correct time and I manually set everything else later ( some times my car is wrong for a week, or two). I participate because I have to but at my own pace.
  6. Oh! this one I will be adding to my internal dictionary..
  7. ON it! Thanks for the encouraging words. I do see often how this community of people come together to support each other ( in my time of lurking). If i don't catch someone this time. I hope to catch someone for the next story. Questions and I are best friends so you'll find me in your PM's eventually. Thanks again!
  8. I have one - I'm experiencing first time jitters and trying not to drop the ball. I've got about 8k words in, and I think my timing is all wrong to find a editor on time. I feel like if I put in a post now ( with it not finished) its too soon, but I am mindful that with the deadline looming I need to give someone time to do any editing work. Let alone let the post be seen to find said editor, and the act of navigating the site to publish it correctly too.
  9. I've got these two on repeat this week
  10. I am writing, but I feel like there is not enough time 🫠 the more I focus on how much time I have ( or feel I don't have) the less writing I end up doing. Plus editing...
  11. I’ll have to give this alternative milk ice coffee a try. Thanks 😊 also when you get the chance to try ice coffee. Let me know what you think!
  12. There is no equilibrium between my stomach and ice coffee when lactose intolerant

    I really wish as other commenters said it was not death they faced together but exile.

    The Escape

    LOVED IT. I jumped right into this, ignored all the comments that said it was connected to another piece, and then held on for the ride. I even sputtered my coffee at one point well reading; It was funny, and full of unexpected twists ( very creative opportunity for poisoning) I loved the picture that was painted of this world, and these characters in such a short amount of time. I’m going back to read where I assume they started, and hope there are more to come!
  15. Amazing!! This post came at the perfect time.
  16. I was so ready to join in last time, but time slipped away from me. Another year, another try. Fingers crossed
  17. Love Love this story, it was literally the story that brought me here, hooked me in and kept me coming back!
  18. Excited for updates, demons and making things we enjoy a touch easier for everyone! Happy Holidays to everyone.
  19. I struggle with finding something that will fit into the Anthology's word count limit. I want to join in but nothing I've got simmering is less then 20k. I'm sitting here "oh, the next one for sure." 🫠
  20. As a kid I always viewed them as naked peaches 😅

    "He acts like a delinquent, but he’s a good guy at heart." From over where he sat, the young half-elf spoke up with a mouth full. "Heinous lies, all of it." mhm, okay, pu- Zeddis. We believe you.
