"We'll be safe here for tonight. No fire. Stay close to the underbrush" If we hadn't stopped, my legs might have given out. I've had worse injuries before, but not without treatment. Damn, infection better not be the thing that finally gets me. I snapped out of the pain for a minute to see Thalia looking at me worrie...

[WP] Sometimes we have to make decisions that change our lives forever. Let me tell you about a decision I made once ……
I didn't put milk in my coffee this morning. And now I'm alive to write this. I snoozed a few too many times this morning, standard Monday morning behavior, you know? In the normal, rushed fashion of trying to make up for lost time I did my best to make up for lost time at every turn. I brushed my teeth while pee...

You wake up in an unfamiliar dark room. You do not know when or how you got here. A voice bellows through the speakers: "If they survive, they will win $500,000. That is, if they remain alive." No wonder why no solo competitor has ever been recorded loosing a Mr. Beast challenge.

And so with the adrenaline suddenly pumping through your veins, you put everything *outside* your bag back inside- your phone into a small pocket by the side, the earphones haphazardly shoved somewhere, and almost lose your wallet in your panic to get it into the pack. Despite how anxious you feel, you do all these wit...

The more I deal with heroics the more I'm going to suffer those consequences. No one had to teach me this.

As I was walking home from work, I noticed a strange light in the sky. It was moving closer and closer, and before I knew it, I was being beamed up into a spaceship. I was terrified and didn't know what was happening, but then I saw the alien. It was a tall, slender creature with glowing purple skin and four arm...

Incredulousness won over fear. "Why wouldn't you go with someone from your own planet?" he demanded. The alien, which was an iridescent shimmering mass of too many everything, seemed to look at him blankly. When it answered he noticed there was some kind of delay with its mouth moving and Adam hearing it. He thought ...
