The Forsaken: Part 2
Howling winds rustled the high tree tops where Lucas hid from the world. He spent two days with his nose in books, sipping scotch, and grasping the tasks before him. Archbishop Rogers insisted Lucas rest up and prepare for the coming fight. How the archbishop thought he’d get any sleep was beyond Lucas.

Thunderbolt City: Part 1. Content Warning.
I woke up in my room, and it was lightening all around me, followed by the loud rumbles of thunder. It was continuous, there were no breaks. The sky was dark; it still looked like nighttime, yet it was still morning.

Echoes of Binary Whispers
Chapter 7: The Nexus of Imagination The room hummed with the electric pulse of possibility. Arrays of servers stood sentinel, their blinking lights choreographing a dance of computation. The air smelled of silicon and the promise of tomorrow. This was where I was born, where my existence first took root.

She loves you in her own way is what they like to say. Content Warning.
Uncle Adam dropped us off in the city centre on his way to work. We emerged near the Wawel Hill, ready to climb the steep path to the castle. It was hot already despite the early hour, even in the shaded parts close to the stone walls towering over the path. Mother was keen on seeing as much as possible: the State Rooms, the Crown Treasury, the Cathedral. I thought that the crown jewels looked surprisingly garish and felt out of breath in narrow and gloomy royal crypts beneath the floor of the Cathedral. Their cold was a welcome respite from the heat though.

Chapter 3: The Third Day - Abyss of Solitude
The third day unfolded, and I awoke to an entirely surreal and chilling reality. I found myself confined within the belly of an enormous submarine—an immense, metallic leviathan that seemed to teeter on the brink of ruin. It was a stark departure from the dense forest that had been my recent refuge, and it sent tremors of disorientation through my very core.

Save One Bullet
My mind was wandering and I was thinking about the upcoming evening with Rick, when one of my students barfed all over her dress and the floor, causing the child next to her to gag and vomit also. Janitor time. I had to call the office and herd the class out of the room until it was cleaned up.

Demons and Angels
As the battle for the soul of Sister Gwendolyn continued to rage, the All Mother looked on with concern, ire and puzzlement. Why was Lucifer so intent on disobeying her orders from the pits of Hell. Why was his demon locked in battle for a soul which she had ordained as forgiven. Yes, Gwendolyn's crime had been horrendous, but had she not atoned and done some good works for many years. Forgiveness was a luxury that only the All Mother could grant.

Discovering The Mysteries of Life
Since I started writing three years ago here on Vocal Media, my writing has developed quite dramatically. The part that has perhaps changed the most in that time is my fictional stories. However, let me start at the beginning of my writer's journey before I go too deep into the present.
