Alec drove slowly down the road. Oak trees lined the evening lit road, their leaves turning a shade of brown as they gently fell, catching in the winds gust to splatter onto his pickup. "There!" Akari said with excitement, pointing to a street to the right. As Alec turned off onto the dirt road Akari oohed in excitement. Apple trees were everywhere. His excitement made Alec smile as he pulled to a stop in front of a farmhouse. "This is going to be so much fun!" As they got out an older female stepped out on the wrap-around po...
Being reborn as a bird had to have been the most freeing feeling a person could feel, Freya thought to herself. She had died with a broken heart, feeling as if a bird had gotten its wings clipped so it could no longer fly, but now she felt as if she could fly from any of her problems. She landed on a branch, feeling it bending with her weight but still she chirped with cheerfulness as a song took hold. All of her human problems were gone and now she was a simple finch, yellow feathers glistened in the morning sun as she sang her morn...
Brynn sat in the dining room of her small house with loads of fall-colored construction paper littering the length of the table with only a tiny space to do the crafts. Lilith, her friend's daughter, was supposed to be joining her soon while her mom went out on one of her monthly flings. A few moments later the doorbell rang and she hurried to answer the door. Cressida was already driving off, leaving them to stand alone on the dark porch. “Come in,” she welcomed and led Lilith into the dining room. “You’ve been busy,” Lilith...
By the time I stepped outside, the leaves were on fire. We had been in the middle of summer and now suddenly the leaves were red and orange, with a hint of yellow and brown in them. Arkansas weather had to be the most bipolar state in the world if the temperature had dropped from 90 to 70 degrees. “This is scientifically impossible,” Kyler grumbled next to me as he wrapped his arms around himself for warmth. “Arkansas IS scientifically impossible,” I replied with a wince. The wind began tearing the leaves off the trees making...
It was chilly outside as Abigail walked down the street to where the local coffee shop was located. The leaves were bright orange and red color as they caught the breeze and floated to the ground. "Abby!" A female's voice called from down the street. Waverly jogged to where I stood. "Where are you going?" "The coffee shop, I heard they had new drinks out," I reply cheerfully. "Can I join you?" Waverly asks breathlessly. The few moments she jogged must have exerted her. A nod and we walk inside where the warm atmospher...

The room was dark, the only light coming from the computer that I sat in front of. Humming along with the song that currently played on the radio, I stared at the blank page of the document I had pulled up little over an hour ago. I had no idea what I wanted to write, writer's block was the worst. The book I would soon be writing had to be absolutely perfect if it was to make me famous. "Iris, honey?" Mom stuck her head through my cracked door. "What are you doing?" Her reddish brown hair was covering her brown eyes that were exac...
