There is a song behind her lips, words trapped in her throat bound by a barrier of doubt. She wants to be heard, to speak the words of her soul. She feels them leaking out little by little, but they are incoherent and clouded, unable to release the song that is her. She is a voice waiting to be heard, words wishing to be ( Read more... ) -

Everyone has been discussing what they are reading lately so I thought I'd chime in. I had started the Darkover series many years ago after getting Landfall from bifemmefatale as a gift. I read through The City of Sorcery and stopped. After that I just kept rereading those. The stores around Margali are my favorites so I think I just stuck with them. Well, I ( Read more... ) -

His tiny hands cradled the pod of compressed seed starter. He was impressed when it expanded to 3 times its size after adding the water. He carefully poked his fingers into the seed packet and plucked out a pinch of tiny seeds. With a precision surprising for his age he delicately sprinkled them over the soil. He ( Read more... ) -

As much as I’ve grown to dislike snow and winter, I’ve always found it to be a lovely sight to see snow covered trees.

The full moon hung brightly that night, as they sat in her front yard. His head lay in her lap as she stroked his hair. Occasional, unnecessary words flitted between them.
