Valentine's Day isn't for everybody. Especially when you're young, gay, and in the closet. But what if you got a sweet little message anyway? Maybe the right gesture, at just the right time, could change your mind.

A short story to warm the heart. Enjoy!

A part of Cia's 'Flash Fiction' challenge for the GA Newsletter, this short 'one-shot' story details the experience of a gay sibling coming home from college to meet his younger sister's boyfriend for the first time. Is he imagining things, or does he see more of himself in this boy than he expected?

The early mass leaves a man reflecting on his past.

A response to Prompt 645

A short, one time, story about a boy's obsession with a former close friend as they begin to grow older. Keeping track of someone on social media can, occasionally, be just as much of a curse as a blessing.

I'm not sure when I wrote this tbh, about six years ago??? A short piece about a college boy named Bill who meets his interesting hallmate, Eddie.

This is complete as a very short story, but am looking to expand on it if the feedback is good. /emoticons/default_smile.png">

I had never kissed anybody before tonight.

Something about it was so electric. So surreal. I kept trying to use enough of my practiced sense of teenage 'cool' to determine whether or not this whole experience was really happening to me...but my mind kept drifting off, mid thought. Carried away by the powerful current of untapped hormones and unexplored feelings within me. Dizzy. Lost. Swept up in the undertow of a moment for which I had no previous precedent.

A place for moggy's words to be shared. Poems and sayings.

Thank you for taking this journey with me.

A man finds himself alone in his room, with photos taunting him.

Taunting, with no need for words.

Prompt pieces in a high fantasy setting:
Teague Imlach is a young wizard. He's been brought up isolated on the mages' island since he was a toddler and is a bit awkward as a result. Now he discovers friendship for the first time. There is much to unearth from a person's past as you get to know them, especially if they have seen war, the edge of the known world, and lived a full life before you were even born.
And maybe there are different kinds of friendship.
