Fools' Gold door RyanMaxfield

In the shadow of Colorado's jagged peaks, Lake City clings to survival-its boomtown glory long faded, its people hardened by flood, fire, and failure. Eli Grant arrives looking for honest work, but honesty is hard to keep in a place where desperation breeds betrayal. Forced to toil in the unforgiving Isolde Mine, where pay is a distant promise and survival hangs by a thread, Eli stumbles upon an abandoned shaft hidden deep in the mountainside. Driven by resentment and hunger, he hatches a dangerous plan: to steal high-grade ore from the mine and hide it in the abandoned tunnel. He tells himself it's only fair-after all, the mine owner, Jeb Carlin, hasn't paid him a dime. But in a town where ambition burns hotter than the forge and trust is as rare as a gold vein, secrets don't stay buried for long. As Eli's stash grows, so does the risk. When another man discovers the hidden ore and spins his own tale of newfound riches, greed, and deception spiral out of control. Soon, the mountain itself becomes a battleground, and the promise of wealth leaves neither man untouched.

GRL Heard Around the world and other short stories door Glory_feeling2

This is a collection of short stories that are about places I would like to one day visit, but for now there are all chapters of my imagination. I am the Grl heard around the world! This is actually written for my Great Uncle Atty. Pio Frago to read. We live in two different parts of the world, and this is my way to reach him. It is also a collection of stories I wrote to keep my (virtual ticket) going per se! As a baby, I was personified as the little girl who 'cried' around the world by an airplane passenger in Hawaii. And in a way, I still like to get my 'voice' heard, but now through words in a story and my poetry. So, if you are willing to join me for a 'virtual ride' to a place I call my own, please do. My Grandpa passed away on Aug. 15, 2017.
