Blood Driven Society
Ripping echoed from the shady room, Screams of terror vibrate the air, Stiff walking graveyard man, Macabre dead hand extended, Zombies march around the house, Jaws of life hanging open, Moaning as they hunt their next meal, Swinging bat another one drops, Survival driven by adrenaline, Bloodlust driven society, Eating their own to survive, Roaring…
Dreamscape
Why are words not boring? I speak and write so much, filling the data centers of the world, our digital and spoken library. Yet, I can’t get enough. It is fascinating what I can do with letters, combining them into words, dancing with syllables, rhyming them, creating metaphor. Forming words from every language. Some letters…

Adventure: Part 4
THE QUESTION “He ends with a question for another day, another hour, who do you believe the least important person is in your universe, why?” (Excerpt from Part 3 by thoughtscreateweb.blog) Gasps and whispers rose from the circle.

World Building: Shaman
Dear Reader, Our last world building post brought us to a far Western Island in a different universe than our own, while I directed everyone to sit before a stranger, a shamanic individual, a wise person on this floating ball of dirt and metal. His gaze shifts across each of your faces. Judging, perhaps gauging…
