The Quantum PrisonerThe rain in Oakhaven didn't wash things clean; it just turned the world into a different shade of grey. Elias worked at the Oakhaven Power Station, a hulking concrete beast that breathed soot into the lungs of the town. He was a man of routine: coffee at 6 AM, the same grease-stained jumpsuit, the same twelve-hour shift monitoring the humming transformers. He was a ghost in a town of ghosts, a...0 Comments 0 Shares 0 Views 0 ReviewsPlease log in to like, share and comment!

The Last of AbbotsworthThe storm came on a Tuesday, which was fitting, because storms had always come on ordinary days in the South. They did not announce themselves with fanfare or prophecy. They simply arrived, like death or bad news, and when they were done, everything was changed and nothing could be put back the way it was. The electromagnetic storm hit Abbotsworth Plantation at dawn on a Tuesday, and by noon...0 Comments 0 Shares 2 Views 0 Reviews

THE LAST GREAT GATSBY'S WARACT I: THE JAZZ CLUB (20%) The piano player at Le Diable Noir was playing a tune Nick Calloway had never heard but felt he had lived. It was slow and sad and sounded like a man walking through a room where everything he had loved had been taken, and he didn't know when it happened or by whose hand, so he just kept walking. Nick sat at the bar with a whiskey that was half water and watched the...0 Comments 0 Shares 1 Views 0 Reviews

The Snake BloodThe Snake BloodAct I — The SparkThe supermarket on Atlantic Avenue smelled like dill pickles and old bread, the way Polish shops always did, and Danny McMahon liked it that way. It reminded him of his grandmother, who had come from a village near Galway and who could make a potato bread so good that Danny's father used to eat it with jam like it was cake.Danny was thirty, an Irish mechanic who...0 Comments 0 Shares 2 Views 0 Reviews

The Absurdity of LawIn the city of Omonoia, the architecture was designed to make people feel small. The buildings were vast, windowless slabs of grey concrete, and the streets were laid out in a perfect, dizzying grid. Julian Gray was the city's most successful lawyer, not because he knew the law, but because he had mastered the art of the Absurd. Julian's specialty was "Ontological Litigation." He didn't argue...0 Comments 0 Shares 2 Views 0 Reviews

The Bureau of Minor CorrectionsMr. Smith worked in the Department of Fate, Sub-division 4: Minor Corrections. His office was a beige cubicle in a building that seemed to have no beginning and no end, filled with the rhythmic clicking of a thousand typewriters and the smell of stale coffee. Smith's job was simple: he processed "Fate Tickets." When a citizen's life went slightly off-track—a missed train, a spilled coffee, a...0 Comments 0 Shares 4 Views 0 Reviews

Title: The Clockwork HeartManchester was a city of soot and iron, where the sky was a permanent shade of bruised purple. Silas worked in the depths of the Ironworks, a cathedral of steam and screaming metal. He was a genius of gears, a man who could hear the heartbeat of a machine. But Silas had a secret: his own heart was failing, a congenital defect that made every breath a struggle. The conflict began when Silas...0 Comments 0 Shares 6 Views 0 Reviews

ACT IDr. Julian Frost found his own biography in a Taiping archival document, written in 1854—twenty years before he was born. The discovery happened on a Tuesday, in the imperial archives of Tianjing, where Julian had spent the last three months cataloging rebel propaganda and religious texts for his forthcoming Oxford publication. He was thirty-two, a man of meticulous habits and rational...0 Comments 0 Shares 7 Views 0 Reviews

The Silent Garden of Ashes## Act I: The Outset The mud of the Belgian frontier had a way of swallowing everything—boots, hope, and the occasional scream. Julian, a Lieutenant with a penchant for Keats and a gaze that seemed perpetually fixed on a horizon only he could see, stood amidst the ruins of a shattered hamlet. His white dress uniform was a scandalous anomaly in this grey wasteland, a stark, fragile beacon of a...0 Comments 0 Shares 7 Views 0 Reviews

The Starlight InheritanceI. The stock ticker never stopped, and I had learned to love its relentless chatter the way a sailor loves the sound of waves—because it meant you were still alive, still moving, still somewhere between where you were and where you were going. I was twenty-six years old, and I worked on the forty-second floor of a building on Wall Street that smelled of cigarette smoke and ambition. My job was...0 Comments 0 Shares 4 Views 0 Reviews

Blood and MagnoliasMagnolia Hall did not so much stand on the land as lean against it, the way a dying person leans against a wall that will not hold them. The porch sagged on its left side, where the pillars had rotted from the inside out, swollen with moisture and then collapsed, leaving the veranda to tilt like a ship taking on water. The magnolia trees that gave the estate its name had grown wild and tangled,...0 Comments 0 Shares 6 Views 0 Reviews
