Summer Job
Dru was staring at his veggs and sweetcake. Staring and not eating. The resort commissary was lively this morning- lots of workers eating together, talking and joking and getting ready for the day, same as me and Dru. Except here was Dru, not...
Mrs. Jackson
"Only six!" She had to keep reminding them of the limit. They wanted to invite every single one of their friends- she couldn't blame them for that. And she was grateful that they had so many- opossums were not always welcome, or popular. But Todd and...
A Little Help From My Friends
It was only a ten minute ride to the Kazans' house from Red's, and the squirrel spent it obsessively considering what would happen when they got there. He mentally ran back through Jason and Beth's conversation he had eavesdropped on the night...

Party politics
(This is a continuation of my story "Nate Loses His Way". Reading that first is suggested but not entirely necessary.) As with everything I post here, this is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or...
Nate loses his way
Nate blinked out of his half-sleep, partially due to the ache in his neck, and partially because his inner equilibrium told him that the jet had started to descend. He tilted...
