Can We See Too Far?

Posted on September 6, 2023September 7, 2023

by Den Blonde Ulven July 19, 2023 My father and I performed some optic experiments near Virginia Beach in Norfolk, Virginia.

Stasis Treatment

Posted on August 28, 2023

by Michael Kingswood Some folks call dead bodies stiffs.  And boy, they ain’t kidding. Couldn’t tell you what happened before then or how I got there.  But when I opened my eyes on the cold stainless steel of the medical examiner’s exam table and looked up at the bright fluorescent lights shining down on me,…

O’Bannon’s Talisman

Posted on August 21, 2023

by Michael Kingswood Humidity made Carl O’Bannon’s shirt cling to his torso, almost completely soaked despite not being out and about all that long.  He felt like he was sweating a river, though in reality it wasn’t all that hot out.  It was like an ocean itself was condensing on top of him, and he…

Posted on August 16, 2023

by Michael Kingswood Hot wind blew past Thurim, bringing with it the scent of impending rain overtop the other, more earthy odors that seemed to permeate the grasslands he was traversing.  It whipped his cloak around behind him as he peered down from the hilltop where he stood.

Posted on July 31, 2023

by Michael Kingswood Ray knew he was in trouble the instant the lights came on. It wasn’t the two grim faces staring at him, round cheeks and narrowed eyes so similar the two men had to be brothers. No, it was what Ray saw past them that clinched it.  A broad window through which he…
