“Room Six” by George Beasley

Submitted to Contest #250

It’s a one of a kind place, this Inn is. It’s where dreams are kept and where peace is found. It’s where memories are made and memories relived. It’s where time stands still and your mind goes into solace. It’s nestled right on the banks of the Cape Fear River in a small beautiful North Carolina town. It only has eight rooms, each with it’s own charm. Six of the rooms have a semi-private porch divided by some wooden slats that go almost to the ground. The old wooden porch swing is my favorite. Each of the river side rooms has one. They...

“The Writers' Museum” by George Beasley

(excuse the mess..it's still in edit)She came to the museum everyday. She always made her way to my exhibit. She came with friends from time to time making sure she brought them right past me. As if she was showing me off. Oh my, how beautiful she was, long brown hair and big beautiful brown eyes that match her ever so elegant style. Her presence in the museum was intoxicating to all that saw her. She seemed to flow like a light wind when she arrived. It only made sense that she came here every day, she was a great writer herself. It’s ...

Submitted to Contest #241

According to Wikipedia, betrayal is defined as “the breaking or violation of a presumptive contract, trust, or confidence that produces moral and psychological conflict within a relationship amongst individuals.” Is this a story of betrayal or the story of a mother wanting to save the life of her son? You be the judge. At the age of five, I trailed behind a group of individuals, accompanied by my mom and the evil person she had married. We were entering what would be my new residence. I had been removed from my home because of th...

“Teardrops” by George Beasley

Submitted to Contest #239

I’m sitting here watching the lake today. It’s a beautiful day; the sun is shining so brightly, and the wind is very soft. With every bright day, there is always a chance a storm will pop up. Suddenly, the wind shifts direction, gaining strength, and I observe the clouds swiftly advancing over this picturesque lake. I can see the storm brewing in the back side of these clouds. The clouds are getting darker and darker, and they are twisting in and out as if they are playing with each other. As the storm draws closer, I retreat from...

“The Fire” by George Beasley

Submitted to Contest #232

The Fire Recently, I was challenged to write a story about someone who must keep a fire burning, surrounded by total darkness. I have been thinking about this for a few days and have been pondering what type of emotions I will have to explore to write this story. This has triggered a host of troubling emotions and thoughts. The darkness in my life has always been real. The memory that stands out to me is when my brother, Mike, and I were dropped off at this lady’s house during the week. She ran some type of off-grid daycare. We wer...
