In Dripping with Red, I cover the story of the Lebecky family, who are haunted by a creature of sorts, more of a shapeshifter, who first appears as a white bird, his feathers dripping with the red of blood. It follows them over generations, watching their every move, waiting to attack. In each chapter, it is a different generation of Lebecky's, with the shapeshifter in plain sight, but they never see it as the one who haunted them for centuries.

A short story written for the Red Feather Award Summer 2019 Writing Contest. @RedFeatherAward Also a first draft- The gates between the world has been opened. Creatures long forgotten have been released. Creatures good... and evil. Creatures seeking revenge. Grizela West (Griz) is definitely not normal. She doesn't even look human, which led to her being thrown out of home at an early age. After accidently killing a person (she closed a lid on a bin that was later emptied with a man inside), she is on the run from everything she has known for most of her life. The people who she has grown up with, who has helped her, are hunting her. They aren't the only ones. A being, one of those who has been imprisoned until being released, wants revenge. It won't stop until it dies, or until those who it hunts is dead. After finding a scent that is different but similar to its own, and to those it hunts, it will search far and near for the owner.
