Chapter 1 here. Chapter 2. The aroma from the seat assaulted her nose. The smell of fresh sweat, of stale sweat, and — peyew — sausage! Did they just finish unloading miners? Liljiana pulled out a fresh scented tissue and held it against her nose while she tried to connect the two pieces of the … Continue reading Tribulations of Tayvan Tours – Ch. 2

What is the meaning behind the words? What's the moral of the story? You know, the theme - what does it all mean? Which theme is in all the stories? Can I answer that? Do I really know?

But the story will (read: most likely) be published in September. Enjoy! Scene 6 The internet search didn’t produce the results Hella expected. The records in the Titles … Continue reading Scene 6 – The Old Woman & the Mad Horse
