You are about to go into labour. | Sarina was in denial. Maybe there was a mix-up. She knew they sent the wrong papers to the wrong people sometimes. She knew she'd received multiple confirmation letters. They're was no way it wasn't her.

You are about to go into labour. | She knew it was going to happen, even before she *really* understood what went on in the cramped rooms of the hospital's Maternity Ward. It was like a memory from the future...she could call it up just as easily as she could what she ate for breakfast. To her, it felt like it had already happened; she felt its panic, i... | 0 | 0 | 198 | 15,277 |

I remember in the 6th grade when Mrs. Dautree clickity-clacked into the room, perching her spectacles on her beak-like nose. The chain which connected sight to her neck was strung with beads of glass, refracting rainbows onto the linoleum floor. She told us of our FIs (F... | 4 | 0 | 198 | 15,279 |

The pictures of him in her parent's home display a man of strength and driving ambition.

“Your Majesty, we are moving as fast as we can, please hang on!”
Waited for forty long years with the velvet weight on her head.

I hate my life.

[OT] I created a writers hub for short stories and novellas called Chapterfy | The site looks great! Just a couple of questions:
For longer pieces like novelettes/novellas, will there be a way to optionally feature a cover image? For authors who use them, it would be nice to give authors the option to display their work on their profile as a sort of gallery of cover images instead of normal li... | 4 | 0 | 43 | 15,288 |

[OT] I created a writers hub for short stories and novellas called Chapterfy | Hey, signed up and posted a story.
Do you have a format for short stories? I've added one as a story with a single chapter, but it seems odd for a short story.
Also in Social Links, could you add a section for "Personal Blog" or "Personal Website"? | 3 | 0 | 43 | 15,293 |
