And Now For Our Featured Newbies!
Excerpt: Darren lazily fell through the front door, stumbling up over the step and using the wall to balance himself. His jacket was glistening from the rain, his hair damp and slick against his skull. In his jacket pocket, a small bunch of battered flowers stemmed out, within a transparent plastic wrapper. Most of the stems were broken and the flower-heads themselves were hanging on to dear life.
Excerpt:
I wrote you love sonnets
You drew me pictures I won't forget
But the colors, as bold as they were
They were beginning to fade away.
Excerpt:
Fasten your belts it is time to derail,
Embrace your life with all the betrayal
Excerpt: I stared up at the ceiling, brooding from my bed. I frowned. How was I supposed to keep Luna safe with this demon inside of me? What if I was possessed at a time that was not usual and I was caught off guard with Luna at my side? “Silly, what is there to be upset about?” she light-heartedly teased. I turned my head to meet her playful gaze. Her soft perfect lips were curved into a lovely smile. Her curious, stormy-blue eyes searched my eyes for what was bothering me. Without thinking I sighed contently and moved a strand of her moon-touched, flaxen hair from her face, staring into her eyes with a feeling that everything was right in the world.
Excerpt: Yvonne looked at her mom. She wanted to scream at her. How can you not know where your husband is going? How can you not know when he’s coming back? How could you not wake me? But instead, Yvonne slid the $20 back to her mom and said, “You keep it. The truck’s running on fumes.”
