Oh God not blogging! By Chris Keys

Let me begin by apologizing to all of you, who like blogging and feel it serves some meaningful purpose in your life. I started writing because I want to craft stories that would spark the reader’s imagination and provide them with entertainment. I wanted to write stories and novels, that may not revival Hemingway, C.S. Lewis, Arthur C. Clark or some of the other literary greats, but they would

A flash horror

The Incubator

Brian pressed a finger on the lump, which had developed on the side of his neck. He had awoken a week earlier to a bitter taste in his mouth, not unlike when a gnat flies down your throat. A few days after this lump began to form.

Jerking his hand away, Brian furrowed his brows in a look of concerned confusion. He swore there was movement when he pushed into the firm lump. Looking closer at the bathroom mirror, tiny ripples could be seen as if the area beneath the skin was bubbli… Continue

The Angel

This is my forth draft and I'm still not happy with it... Ever have one of those? Anyhow, I'm posting it anyway because I'm kind of tired of messing with it. :) Here it is...

The Angel

With sounds that of scraping I drug the knifes blade.
First one side than next like I'd mastered the trade.
For hours I'd sat here perfecting this tool
to use on a villain; a task master cruel.

"You wouldn't," she whispered, her smile slyly mocked
I in my chair slowly back and forth rocked.
Her whispers had pla… Continue

In Loving Memory of Lillian (Cook) LaLonde

What is held in those eyes as they seem to stare back at me unblinking? It's just a black and white image of two sisters, merely toddlers. One sitting on a stool dressed in white. She stares wide eyed at the camera as her older sister stands next to her. The older, has her hand gently on the lap of the younger.

To many, it's just an old photo. But what the camera did not capture that day was the scene upon which those tiny eyes were focused. A mother, pregnant with the next child, stood behind… Continue

Calling All Moms!

I'm having a 'Mom Chat' on my site this coming Thursday from 8:30pm to 10pm. I'm using the Ning chat feature, so I think you may have to sign up on my site but I would LOVE to have you attend!! My site is in its infancy and I could use your participation if you have time. I'll be doing this event monthly. In the future I'll have an assigned topic (that we will always be at liberty to stray from) but for this time we'll just gab. Though, I may send out an ice breaker question to get us rolling.… Continue

We're starting to Grow!

Hey Everyone,

     We are beginning to grow as a network.  I'd like everyone to make sure that they drop by our new member's pages and leave a welcome for them to let them know that we're glad they are here.  Also, don't forget to send out invites to others that you think might be interested in joining.  This can be a great network, but only if we make it one.  Word of mouth is powerful.  That's what networking is all about.    Together we can make this network rock!
