Rituals Beyond The Stars
Magic on other planets.
Many civilizations across the universe saw technological advancements as magic. However, one civilization in particular insisted that magic not only existed but that they had advanced it well beyond the galactic council’s precious technology. Amused and curious researchers had been dispatched to the homeworld of the Hinoi civilization of the Yeanides system. The researchers never arrived, however, according to their last transmissions the ships simply no longer existed. Hinoi mages swore the ships had never arrived and they had no idea what happened. Magic required willing sacrifices to work, but the rules didn’t say anything about aware sacrifices.

Witch Hunter
Wind gently shook the leaves of the trees. An outsider would feel at ease. The man cautiously scanning the trees knew better. Ranchers reported missing or mutilated animals and almost every family in the area had a child go missing over the past year. He walked a bit further before his senses were assaulted. Rotten plants and a few animal carcasses littered the area, threatening to overwhelm him. Witchcraft always blighted the land. Hunting witches was dangerous, most people would never dream of it, but it was the only way to break his curse, for him to become human again.

About Writing
Most people talk about things that bother them as a way to vent their emotions, another way is through writing. As I sit writing in my car, I ponder how much writing, in itself, has helped me become the person I am today. I have endless amounts of pages filled with poems, stories, and sometimes random blurbs. Writing is a window into your soul. The simple action of writing has benefited me; by helping me to achieve a better memory, helping me to learn and grow intellectually, and helping me to communicate my emotions.
