The Daylight Room and other short stories by michaeljdawson

'You should write a story about that.' It's a line that writers hear a lot, a bit like comedians in a bar being told. 'Here's a joke for you.' Best to smile politely and change the subject or get a round in. There are occasions when I didn't do either, and there will be occasions I don't do that in the future. These stories are and will be the result. I also include the background to the story for the curious but I'll keep the identities secret. I don't want you chasing them down in search of ideas for your next novel. :) The Daylight Room: A very young boy understands that what he did was wrong. What he doesn't understand is that the punishment is much, much wronger.

How People Are by kullman
4 parts Complete
A meticulous grifter tries to stay below the radar by hiding out in a privileged suburb, using a fictional family as a cover for his schemes. Murder, mayhem, HOA wars, and PTA meetings ensue. Basically, if you like self aware narrators, sarcasm, satire, and dead bodies, this one's for you. It's super short you can read it in like forty five minutes, so as opposed to binging a whole series it's more like watching a Netflix movie you become unreasonably attached to. Trigger/Content Warning: violence, some disturbing imagery. Family issues, mention of substance abuse.

Gideon has everything going in life. He has a nice flat, a girlfriend, a mistress, a good paying job, and today he's been promoted to the CEO in his firm. He has everything he has ever wished for, so why does he feel empty inside? Not wanting to think about his feelings, Gideon goes out with his colleagues to celebrate his success as he challenges life by driving his car wasted without any regard for the consequences. Why would he? He's bigger than life. At the same time a single mum is driving her car adjacent from Gideon, oblivious of his dangerous driving style as she is in the middle of a heated argument with her teenage daughter, the tension making her younger daughter cry. She turns around to silence them both but unknowingly diverts her car to the other lane and crashes into Gideon's Porsche. The accident happens in a flash, pushing Gideon over the bridge and the other car into the railing, resulting in the death of a single mum. Gideon barely escapes drowning and is pretty pissed as he has to walk all the way home. But strange things happen, and he realizes his life isn't the same anymore. Will Gideon be able to redeem his selfish ways, or will he be forever trapped in this dangerous world? Short story darkromance-mystery-thriller

《 Highest Ranking: #5 in Vampire 》 "Is that Marcus? Marcus as in, from our High School Marcus!" Casey squeaked. I spun around, not quite believing her, but there he was. He strode through the school like he owned it and my god, he could've. He'd changed over the four years he'd been gone. It was like god himself had carved him from a statue. His cheekbones could cut a finger and a jaw that could slice a hand. He was taller, more muscular. He looked nothing like the boy that went away. He wore a blacket jacket and ripped jeans, his grey eyes studied the school as every female studied him. Suddenly, they slipped past every other person's eyes and landed on mine. No surprise etched his face, it was like he didn't recognise me. Until I saw the corner of his mouth lift up. ~~ Best friends, Diana and Marcus planned to do everything together. They would go to college and live in the same dorm room, they would always be best friends. But, Marcus went away. Without expecting him to return, Diana uses her heartbreak to change her life. She becomes popular in college.. Then one day, he shows up. But he's changed, he's darker, more silent and definitely a lot more hotter. He'd grown taller, his face sharper and he drew eyes from every woman on campus, even the guys. He spoke to no one and didn't even acknowledge her until she spoke to him. But something was very off. Very off, indeed. Cover Design: @newsies- Copyright @tavanalee No Rights Reserved 2018

Once Caleb reached the bottom of the stairs he quietly opened the door and tiredly switched on the light "Jayden it isn't morning yet buddy you need to-" he froze in place staring at a man he didn't know standing in his living room. The man stared back at him like a deer in the headlights, he looked a few years older than Caleb, had stubble growing around his face, dark brown greasy hair that wasn't styled in any particular way and was wearing full black aside from the muddy navy blue trainers he was sporting. "Who the fuck are you and what are you doing here?" Caleb demanded in a hushed whisper, he also noticed the black backpack the stranger was carrying and the open living room window he'd clearly used to gain entry, the vase that was previously rested on the windowsill lay in pieces on the ground, that must've been the crash that had awoken Caleb from his tranquil slumber. "Just a passerby, no one much" the strange man whispered back an air of mystery hanging about his every word. "Inside my living room?" Caleb replied folding his arms and sizing the man up, after his beating earlier in the evening he wasn't exactly fighting fit, the intruder was also taller and muscly, there's no way Caleb would win if it came to a fight. "Consider me Santa Claus alright? Now go back to bed kid" the man answered calmly pointing at the door as if Caleb was a child. "I'm not a little kid anymore, I'm 18. Santa isn't real" Caleb responded harshly taking a step forward, the man noticeably took a step towards the window eyeing Caleb up with a smirk.
