Getting married was not an item on Eddie's to do list until Myra put it on there. Now it's there, with thousands of sub items to take care of; all neat little boxes waiting to get crossed off. There is only one problem: Eddie doesn't know he already ticked off the 'get married' box years ago. Excerpt: Wedding proposals can be big and romantic, very small and intimate, or anything in between. You could take your beloved up for a ride in a hot air balloon, hiding the ring in the picnic basket. You could get down on one knee on a stage, watched by thousands of people who cheered for you. You could take them to your favourite spot in the park and declare your love right then and there. Or just propose after dinner in your own home, finding a quiet moment to tell them you want to be with them forever. Eddie guessed it depended on the couple: everyone did it in a way that suited them. You could say the way it went down for him, fitted them as a couple.

This version will remain up, however, I highly recommend checking out the newer one, since it is more representative of my current writing style. Light shines down from the heavens, illuminating the Earth below. But every so often, a beam falls down from above. If you know how, you can catch it. If you don't, you destroy it. And when you collect enough rays of light, you hold the power of the sun, moon, and stars in your hands. Only one has mastered the art. Only one can capture the precious light, and spin it into ethereal thread. Her name is Celisae. In order to solidify an alliance for three tribes, Celisae is asked to weave three dresses, one of sunlight, one of moonlight, and one of starlight. There's only one problem - Celisae is not a weaver. Written for the ONC 2020.
