A Magical Journey: Confessions
Part 5 of a Fantasy Microfiction Series
The trees were thick, and there was no trail to follow. "I confess, this wasn't how I expected to spend my summer vacation."
Their guardian swatted a branch out of the way. "I thought I'd be able to give you back at the end of the day, yet here we are."
Both twins ducked the backswing. "It's not like we knew we'd be stuck here. Quick trip to fantasyland, back before dinner."
Their guardian stopped in place. "I suggest you start running."
"Why?"
"Wherever this is, the police aren't around to hear you scream. Or charge me with your murder."

Just One Flirtation
Miss Elizabeth's fingers danced over the pianoforte, keeping Darcy trapped in place by his offer to turn the pages, and Colonel Fitzwilliam thoroughly entertained. "I have many tales of his time in Hertfordshire, though I am afraid it is not at all to his credit."

How the Harvest Mouse Came to Suisun Bay
A long, long time ago there was a family of harvest mice. Mice are common, but these were unique – born to those who had lived in the salty, marshy bay for many generations, these mice ate and drank from the sea as well as the land and rivers. For generations, there were only the southern families, scattered along the marshes of Corte Madera and in the San Francisco Bay (U.S. Fish & Wildlife, 2013). One family, however, would undergo strife and conflict before reaching a whole new world. What became of them after is another tale entirely – but this is how their story begins.
