Flash Fiction: A Bit Of The Future – Part 1 of 2

From days far-flung forward, I give you dear reader:

A Bit Of The Future

— 

“It won’t hurt a bit.”

Syringe inside my arm. A cold steel table. The doctor walks out of the room, tossing his gloves into the disposal on his way out.

My body goes numb, and limbs flop onto the surface of the table. The harness tightens, and the whole thing moves horizontal to the floor. My head lurches forward until a strap straightens it up. My eyes are so heavy…. Continue reading

Microfiction: Piano Player

“I get to play. I get to play. Wrong note. Wrong note. Wrong note. Wrong note. Wrong note.” His little fingers leave red marks on the white keys.

“Hahahahaha. Don’t you love the songs I play?”

His wrists dislocate. The music gets faster. Continue reading

How To Make Monsters

Quake in fear my readers! Quake! For the storm approaches and soon, oh so very soon, my creation will walk amongst the world. And it will bring fear, and sorrow!

How’d I do it you ask? Fool! You think I would stop here and simply tell you the secrets of evil? The recipe for monsters?

Do you really think I have that big of an ego?

Because I totally do. So let’s get started! Continue reading

Trailer Talk: Goosebumps

It’s Halloween time boys and girls! So just like last year, I’m going to be doing a bunch of spooky articles. And what’s more spooky than a child-friendly horror movie?

Plenty of things actually. But in any case…

It’s Trailer Talk time!

Dammit, the marketing-inspired, nostalgia-fueled, remake-everything-from-the-90’s trend finally got to something I like. And what’s even worse is that I’m going to fall for it. Continue reading

Microfiction: Fire And Blood

Notice: So…I know I said I would have a Monthly Mentions out today…but there was a bit of a change of plans. I don’t want to leave you without content though, so enjoy this microfiction!

“Blood. Blood and fire.”

She raises the staff above her head. The mask obscuring everything.

Except the mouth. The white, smirking teeth. Continue reading

News: Computer Issues

Hey guys…I’m sorry to say that there won’t be a new article today. Over at casa-de-coolerbs, I was having a few issues with my computer and it prevented me from getting an article ready for you guys.

Don’t worry, I’m already almost done fixing it, and will have a Monthly Mention for you come Wednesday.

Have a nice weekend everyone.

Sorry Characters: Eight Ways You Might Die

So, you’re a character in a novel? And you just found out your author plans to kill you off? Well, I’m sorry to say there’s no hope for you now, but you can at least feel prepared for it. Here, allow me to list off some of the ways you could potentially face your demise!

The Eventuality

Honestly, did you really expect to survive this kind of situation? You’ve been fighting monsters all your life (metaphorically or literally) and have been doing detrimental things to keep at it rather than look over your life choices. You been dancing around death the whole story, and now you’re going to trip. You really can only blame yourself for the demon bite/accidental drug overdose. Continue reading

Microfiction: We

I can’t trust it. I can’t take that risk. It’s come too close before. Once my date says she needs to go use the restroom, I already know it’s over for her. The door closes behind her and I’m up.  My silverware clatters and my chair falls over. It’s a subtle noise on carpeted floor, but it’s enough.

Trailer Talk: The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 and The Maze Runner: Scorch Trials

Well, I haven’t done one of these in a while. And I’ve actually read both of these books, so…

TRAILER TALK TIME!

The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2

I’m really late to this one. Like, this trailer came out in July. But I started this website with me reviewing The Hunger Games (and Ender’s Game,) and I am not going to let this movie series go out without my two cents on the matter. Continue reading

Flash Fiction: Teatime In A Curious Place

A story with some characters you may be rather familiar with…

Teatime In A Curious Place

“I really don’t feel like being logical at the moment dear. Could you return when I’m in a better mood?” the man says, smashing a few tea cups with his cane. Continue reading
