Ocean WarriorChapter 1 This was it! He was finally here. Zulemar looked out over the large expansion of crystal blue water. His green eyes were lit with excitement as he watched wave after wave rush to the shore. The weather was perfect with the sun high in the sky and the wind helping the waves grow big enough to catch the young surfer’s attention. If there was a better day than today, he had never known or even imagined it. “We made it,” Kyle ran up and slapped him on the back. “Can you believe it?” He had shaggy blon...

La NariusPrologue I sit atop Mt Aren on the island of La Narius, looking out over the place I have been queen of for hundreds of years. This is my home. The only one I have ever known. I will always do whatever it takes to protect it. I am Evana. Amphitrite, goddess of the sea, and Gaia, goddess of the earth, worked together to create me. My hair was made from the golden sunshine, and a bit of sea was added to create my cerulean-blue eyes. My wings are wide and reflect the many colors of the rainbow. I am a fairy and wa...

I will say, for now, that I am sorry for all the pain that I have caused you. It is my hope that enough time has passed that you can hear me out. If not, I will understand and not bother yo...

Little Ash GirlChapter 1 There was a slight breeze blowing across the barren wheat fields on either side of the winding gravel road on that long ago day. I felt it in my bones, though it wasn’t a cold breeze. I wonder now it was a warning of what was to come. We feel the wind, but we seldom listen to it. Perhaps we should. The wind has been places and played witness to things that are far beyond the reach of our imagination. It knows what has come before and perhaps it also whispers of things to come.

The Career ChallengeChapter 1 “I can’t believe you are finally home!” Cara Donahue squealed with delight. She dropped her oversized purse onto the bed and pulled her childhood best friend into her arms for a big hug. “I have missed you so much!” Amile Anders pulled back to look at her friend, “I missed you too,” she said, her brown eyes locked with Cara’s bright green ones. “We have so much to catch up on. Tell me...
