What if your destiny was bound to something small? What if it was bound to something as small and insiginficant as which counter you used in a game of monopoly? That certainly seems to be the case for Troy (car) the taxi driver, Louise (Dog) the kennel owner, Billy (Ship) the singer on a cruise ship, Nina (iron) the journalist, Douglas (Boot) who has been fired from every job he's ever had and Gavin (hat) the local councillor.  

After holidaying together at the same North-East caravan park in the mid-eighties, why are they all finding their way back to the old park twenty-five years later.  Is it fate or are there even darker forces at work?

While her best friend Cassidy snacks on brie and boys in France, Darcy Li-Quinn must face her last year of high school and the unpredictable wrath of her sister, Danica, alone. Darcy's plan for dealing with Danica and her heinous friends is simple-be invisible. But first, she's promised Cassidy she'll do 'one brave thing'. Mustering the courage to say 'hi' to the cute boy on the bus, Darcy expects rejection or indifference. She doesn't anticipate a grumpy ghost with unfinished business who needs her help. Suddenly, a quiet year of flying under the radar looks increasingly unlikely. *** Rationally, Hunter Viera knows that his brother's death wasn't his fault. But that doesn't stop his guilt about Archer invading his every thought or lessen the grief sitting heavy in his chest. Changing schools offers a fresh start, and Hunter's plan is simple-be invisible. But he hasn't counted on Darcy, or her ludicrous claim that Archer speaks to her from beyond the grave. Suddenly, a quiet year of sitting on the sidelines looks increasingly unlikely. *** This is a story about hearts and hope and public transport. This is Darcy and Hunter's story (and a little bit Archer's too). *** 'Get A Life' is my entry for Open Novella Contest 2023 and is inspired by the following prompts. 20. You finally build enough courage to talk to that cute someone you see every day on the bus. Their face turns dark as they respond "You shouldn't be able to see me." 9. There's an urban legend that's been circulating for years about a taxi cab that doesn't take you where you want to go, but where you need to go. One night, you stepped into this cab.

Is love in the stars? in the air? or, in the cards? Can we find ourselves during a long walk on the beach? a short walk on a pier? or, a quick bike ride into town? Would destiny call through the reeds? as a bellowing horn? or, as a barking dog? Do you believe in fate? destiny? or, the after-life? These are questions that thirty-one year old Janie wasn't even considering, she didn't need to. She was a good girl, she followed the rules. Her life had direction, she was on the right track, or so she thought, until last December when her comfortable little world unraveled. Comfortably married for a few years to her college sweetheart, steady job, great dog, nice apartment. While she and Tom's marriage wasn't a Hollywood romance, she was confident that eventually, in time, and with some effort, there would be a house and children. It's that time of year, the height of the holiday season, the second week of December to be exact. Too much seasonal hype Janie always thought, holiday decorations in full force, parties galore, so much good cheer. Last year, at Janie's company's annual holiday function, there was plenty of food, way too much alcohol and an overabundance of Joy -- everything changed after that party as her personal life became the popular topic at the office water-cooler. With the holiday season rapidly approaching, again, Janie finds herself surrounded by the usual merriment, but she is sad and alone. Her husband's infidelity has forced her to face re-inventing herself as her dream-life crumbled. Not only was she subjected to stares and whispers at work, but she was forced into a new space socially, and residentially. Most recently the death of her long-time canine companion, Maggie, has been the icing on her 'emotional' cake. Now she must rebuild her life, alone. With no plan, direction or hope she feels lost in the dark until a random stranger offers more than just 'a light.' Join her on a magical tale of love, loss and personal discovery.

Uki Violeta had been feeling so stressed and angry at everything, lately, and his boyfriend, Yu Q. Wilson, had felt it as well. The latter decided he had to take the matter into his own hands and took the man to an amusement park. He wanted to show him he could still have fun in life. He knew the reasons behind Uki's mood, and he wanted to show him this wasn't the end of his life. And who knew? Maybe going out would be a good thing for them - and a lot of other people!
