Sasquatch had clown feet. He practically tripped over them as his puppy vigor and scatterbrain led him all around the house, poking his nose into every nook and cranny, and there were plenty of those. Madeleine, Cain’s mom, put together a house that was almost regal in its simplicity. Every room was open to the … Continue reading The Back Forty, Ch. 1.4

Sex: A Layman’s Guide to Bedroom Novelty
Okay, let’s get this outta the way. I do not intend for this to be a sensual, erotic, mildly or severely dirty, or even suggestive post in any way. This is truly only meant to ridicule the author. And the only reason I’m doing that is because the following is a sampling of the text … Continue reading Sex: A Layman’s Guide to Bedroom Novelty
Going it Alone
Never underestimate what a simple act of kindness will do for another person. After years and years of honing in myself a survival instinct that has manifested itself in my now innate ability to handle most things by myself, I don't need much.

For so many people, the certainty of addiction provides a sense of stability or normalcy to our lives that can’t be matched. For better? Sometimes. … Continue reading The Certainty of Uncertainty
