Dear Heather
If this letter is late then it’s too late for me.
Below is my response to Heather Hubler's "Write Me a Letter Challenge.
Dear Heather,
I am desperate and the only way to communicate to you securely is through the Vocal platform. They are after me and I am terrified.
It all started when I published my fiction story, Out of the Shadows, on Vocal. First, my phone would ring and the caller would hang up, then I’ve received strange IRS audit letters with weird symbols penciled on them. A black van has been parked across the street for days. They don’t think I see them going for coffee in their lettered windbreakers. A black sedan parked behind them today. After confronting the agents two men in black suits took up the surveillance. I am being followed.
My cats are acting strange. I awoke choking , to find Fabian and Ella close to my face and sucking air from my mouth. Are they trying to kill me?
Please, I need your help. My story of the coven is one hundred percent fiction. None of it’s true. I don’t know anything about a murder of a news media star named Gisele.
This morning the two agents knocked on my door with a search warrant. They didn’t tell me what they were looking for. Strange, the only item they took was my hairbrush. Was it for DNA? I don’t know. Wait, don’t witches need a personal item to curse someone? Omg! I’m dead.
Heather, please get the word out, I will not harm myself. I made up everything on my story. Please tell everyone “Do not believe it.”
An owl just landed on a tree and is guarding the back yard. It’s screech is horrifying.
I’m packing my bags now. It’s the witches, I know it. They are coming for me to curse and kill me.
I’ve got to get out of here. Can I hide out at your place? I have gold coins I can pay you.
Please, I’m begging you. Help me.
Your desperate friend,
J. S. Wade
P.S. - Abcdefghijklmnopqrstubwxyz. I also want you to kno…. (Hold on a second)
Who’s there? Fabian!! You let them in? Arghhhhh…….

For the Love of Samosas
Prologue Today's post is short fiction in honor of all the hassled parents trying to keep their angsty teens in line. "Bye mum! I'm not coming home for lunch today. I'll be going to Mac's with Kelvin and his buddies before we head to his house to study for a test." With that, Adam Lim careened like the Flash out of his humble HDB abode.

Trauma Carnival
I have unpopular opinions on one of my old favorites, The L Word. First is: Jenny is my favorite character. Second: The show was originally about Jenny, her trauma, her broken identity and the way her sexuality was explored as an awakening that brought up many memories of childhood abuse.

If this sounds familiar, does that mean I'm a paranoid schizophrenic, too? (You're not paranoid if they really are out to get you.)
No heather, run and hide. They will get you too. Witches, CIA, Men in Black, I bet it's Will. I see I have some serious competition in the humor department from Mr J.S. Hmmm!. Clever, very clever.
Oh snap! I mean I'd harbor you and all, but like I can't use gold coins at Sheetz...hahaha! This was short, clever and escalated quickly. Loved it!! Thank you for this thrilling bit of fun today :)
Great stuff, Scott! The opening paragraph had me thinking this was going to be a plea for recue funds from Nigeria. This was more fun!
I love this, so funny! Well written too.
Well, nice knowing ya! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 My favourite part was when Fabian and Ella were sucking the life out of you! I loved your letter!
Funny story! I hope you find a safe place to hide but those damn owls are everywhere.
Humorous horrific tale!!! Loved it!!!
If your are reading this then you must have escaped! I hope Heather responds soon. I’m getting paranoid over here for ya. PS: loved your PS 😅
