Perhaps things would have turned out differently. Maybe I could have avoided what was to come. Maybe it's a game life wanted me to play, and there's no forfeiting or escaping. I simply have to follow the rules and hopefully make it to the final round, even if that means that I'll be buried six feet underground like him. __________________________________ "Things happen when you least expect them, whether they're good or bad, and in my case, it was everything and more."- Linda Smith Linda Smith, in a million years, never expected her life to take a crazy turn. To be handcuffed and blamed for a death no one saw coming. With a new identity and a new life, she is determined to find the true suspect. Can Linda prove her innocence, or will she share the same fate as Jacob, her now-dead boyfriend? Warnings: *Language Involved* *Violence/fights* (mainly on Chapter 33) Cover made by @lyspynen

Diaspora | ✘, écrit par PencilingRellenitos

A shriek in the night, a lightning strike and lost of sight, a guest here wakes up in the bed, and somewhere, somebody, is dead. The fifty tenants gradually wake to panic and disorder at the Black Estate-and gather around the dining room, where Delilah Black has met his doom. Hushed whispers, faces turned, a rumbling suspension-natural death or a deadly disposition? Whose hands has enacted Black's final fate? Who forced the living to abdicate? Was it the widow-are those tears of joy? Or the disgruntled maid in Black's employ? "The jealous friend!" One supplies. "The reckless teen!" The voices rise. "No, the man who sought fortune and fame! He's the one-" "Enough! She's the one to blame for Black's demise!" The doctor sighs, and rises with a dark display, "The man has died from foul play. Fifty guests and one attack-we must decide who killed Delilah Black." ¿ Award: 3rd place in short story 2020 Seasonal Awards (1st addition)

Eleven Shorts +1, écrit par ShireenJeejeebhoy

Eleven short stories, posted one story at a time: Two little girls, in two different eras, yearning for their parents. A shy girl in a new country. An uncertain woman dancing back into life after the death of a spouse. A thrilling short short. Mother and son argue over what is dignity, what value her life. A creepy little short that won an honourable mention in the Hart House Short Story Contest. The bureaucrat and his ever-so-busy day. A party that glitters and excludes ones who don't fit. A daughter rebels. A mother and her youngest, a conflict without end, that only death can solve? Murder stalks the homeless in Toronto's innocent streets. I hope you enjoy these stories! The ePub and Kindle versions include a bonus romance, written in 1919 by my grandmother, about two people who have to face danger to find each other. There's a story in that: My mother’s sister and mother liked to write poetry. My mother’s mother was a stellar speller and a killer Scrabble player. But I had no idea until recently that as an adolescent she had written and submitted stories for publication. I don’t think her queries were successful. And it wasn’t long before she got married and started riding the Wall of Death as a living with her husband. And so in honour of that century-ago effort of hers, I reproduced in the ePub, as she typed it errors and all (or what I suppose to be errors as grammar is different between countries and eras), the story my mother – her daughter – found recently in an old envelope postmarked from London 6:15 pm 23 SP 19 (23 September 1919) to Miss D. Searby. Purchase "Eleven Shorts +1" at Smashwords or Amazon to read it. https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/82913 http://www.amazon.com/Eleven-Shorts-1-ebook/dp/B005ICFNWK Copyright 1988 to 2013.
