Something Relocated

By
The mansion was scurrying with soldiers of just about all shapes and sizes, makes and builds, and ethnics but their experience in the field was certainly not extremely varied -- all of them looked exceptionally well trained. A sight Dev, Ian and Ed had last seen right before they left the Agency and embarked on what would inevitably be their final assignments for little more than ten years.             "Tell me again why we ever agreed on doing this?" Dev said under his breath as they walked up to the huge doors, which had been guarded by a soldier, or mercenary on either side, like little bulldog puppies guarding their food bowls.             "They're so lifeless," Ian said even softer than Dev. Ed who had heard him merely glanced at him, then walked up the steps and onto the raised area before the doors.             The soldier on the left surveyed the three of them.

A story about a bug...

Drama, a small essay

By
Drama is a concept that is not only omnipresent is real life and society, but also in decision making and how we as a people look at things. I am a writer of drama fiction. No matter how much "sci-fi" or "horror" I always attempt to write into my stories, I always end up writing more drama, and honestly, I don't mind that fact in the least. As much as I love my Stephen King novels, or the next, up and coming Stephenie Meyer (save me) book, I always find myself drawn more towards that old and dust covered Jane Austen or Nicholis Sparks novels.

Sure, one would say that drama is what makes life what it is -- it is both excruciating, and wonderful at the same time. One would say that perhaps there are too much drama for one to handle at the same time. But both of those examples are only looking at one aspect of drama: th
