Off the Ledge and Rotten Days

Pen Holder

Hello! This prompt actually fits into the start of a book I am writing, tell me what you think! Enjoy! These are the first two chapters. Chapter 1: Off the Ledge The galloping of a horse disturbed the calm nature of the forest. Creatures and beasts scurried out of the way of the whinnying animal. On the back of the horse, a figure hunched and grasped tightly on the reins, whispering prayers into the dewy morning. The thunk of an arrow whipped past the distraught pair, urging the young woman to dig her heel into the sides of the horse. Its ...

Broken Chains

This is actually a true story of what God did in my life, how good/ loving He is and the hope you can find in Him no matter where you're at. It came slowly, creeping up behind me and into my thoughts. Into my life as well. There was nothing I could do. I fought and fell, I ran and tripped, I tried to be strong, but It became stronger than me.At a point in my life I was overwhelmed with trails, deep sorrow, and attacks. I'm not sure when it started anymore, but I do know there are some things I will never forget. What I thought was the end, b...

Hello and Happy Holidays. I hope you are doing well. Just to let you know, this story was rushed. I hope you do find it somewhat enjoyable. God bless you. :) I watched the hands of the clock go tic...tic...tic. Anticipating when we were to be finally let out. It was Friday to my delight, and only 10 minutes away from freedom. Every single day from now, Mrs.Fritz always forgot to assign us to partners for a project. This was her first time giving us group work. Her reason behind it? The world may never know, but her. Tic...tic..tic. A...

Hello there, thank you for clicking on this. I'm just experimenting, I don't expect it to be written well(especially in the grammar and the pov parts), but if you have a chance to read it, I hope you like it :) God love and bless you. This is absurd. What was I thinking, joining this race when I don't have a license? Never have I been behind the wheel, but tonight will be the first. The hairs on my skin are on edge as I reach a small building, lit by dim lights. The crumpled paper in my hand read the exact address I was told to come to. La...

Honey and Spice

Submitted to Contest #63

Sweat forms on my brow. My skin was exposed to the sun, and even with the cool air, it was still scorching. I lift my eyes to block the peaking light from the trees. The fiery leaves of the board tree in front of me ruffles. A few leaves part from the branches, drifting off in the wind. My eyes lock with amber ones. I drop the basket I held and round, ripen apples roll on the dirt ground. ¨Atlas!¨ My head snaps to an angry, older woman. Her face was sunken, her lips pursed as her arms were crossed. The lines on her forehead deepened. Her...
