It’s that time of the year: National Poetry Writing Month is on!

For those who don’t know the rules, the task is to write a new poem for each day of the month of April.

A collection of randomly inspired stories. The concepts can come from anywhere, and they have no correlation or connection to each other. Genres and themes will be arbitrary, characters may or may not come from my other stories, and chapter posting will happen at any time.

In other words, a story dump. Enjoy!

On New Year’s Eve, Tony from PRIME and Colt from WOOF meet.

A portion of this story was previously published as part of a chapter in Solcar.

My poetry collection for National Poetry Writing Month 2022.

Yes, I'm doing it again.

I'd like to thank Jan Hutchinson for providing daily prompts and @AC Benus for additional prompts and introductions of new poetry forms.

Last but not least: This wouldn't be possible without my friend and editor @Valkyrie.

Left to give out candy in his penthouse apartment, Seth can't even go trick-or-treating this year. Making the best of it, he dresses up as an obscure Star Trek character that no one will recognize. Asher has become a bit of a loner since starting high school. With no parties to go to, he dresses up and goes trick-or-treating in New York City high-rise. A passionate fan of the Star Trek series, he comes to a certain penthouse and is greeted by a boy dressed as Captain Kirk's son. 5 hours later, several bags of candy consumed and every possible Star Trek topic discussed, he was no longer alone.

When you think about it, being in love is a horrible feeling if the person you're in love with does not feel the same back. In fact, I'd say being in love from one side only is the equivalent of mental torture. I'm Craig, and I wanna take you through parts of my year with Joe.

This story begins with us and ends with me. It's about me, my feelings and that terrible pain of one sided love. I was 14, in the middle of puberty and all the fun that comes with that. It was also the time I think I could tell I liked boys. But of course, that had to be a secret, and Joe was my biggest secret of all.

When Jamie tells his mother she's going to be a grandmother, he's not expecting to get slapped around the face in a posh country pub, but then, no one ever expected him to have children. Explaining everything to his mother is not something Jamie is looking forwards to.

A dragon struggling with his past. A dog learning to love again. A fox finding her true self. All have a story within them, and it is my job to discover those tales.
