Something Wicked Top Story - October 2023
“Ostend te,” I whisper. The wall has vanished and in its place, a winding stairway appears. Faint light lines the walls as candles flicker. The stone walls feel slick and cold as the wall guides me down the stairs. I follow down the steps as mice scurry past my feet. Warmth hits me before anything. The fire that warms the cauldron is strong tonight. Mine and my sister’s magic has become even more powerful from the drought.

Unexpected Roommate
My wife and I decided to go on a second honeymoon for our fifteen year anniversary. My darling wife chose Brazil because she wanted to see the rainforest. We booked a resort on the edge of the river and signed up to take many different tours of the different levels of the forest. Sounds like the perfect vacation right? That’s what we thought too.

Shades of Blue
“Hey mom, could I dye my hair blue? You know like Sherri’s” I asked her one day on my way home from school. I was in the fourth grade and had been sick and the doctors didn’t know what was wrong with me. She said we’ll see and that she would talk to my dad that night about it. From what she has told me about the conversation with my dad, her pitch was that I had so much going on at the time and had so many tests coming up it’s not really a big request. They both were in agreement that if it made me happy I could do it.
