Scorched Earth
When the sun dies….what happens?
It ate up Mercury and Venus but scorched Earth. It was enough to wipe out all life on the planet. It grew into a red giant and then became a white dwarf. A panoply of color all sent clouds of matter through the Solar System.
It had to die. It had been burning for over nine billion years. What took so long? The humans of Earth already prepared new interplanetary bases and thriving cities on Mars. They will be underground as well and shield the people from the sun’s wrath.
“I’ll be damned. The sun’s gonna die someday,” Hanover Clemerson said.

Reaching Out
I promise her. I'd do anything for her. She's my mom. Even as Lanie and Deanna are flying home, Mom is scrappy fighting dying. She lays too still in that too-big bed with all the toasty white hospital blankets, in the south tower, at the broad end of a long slow-turning corner that delivers me again to her private room with the view she can't see through, with the beeping that tells us nothing new, and all these ice chips she can't swallow, and a flood of well-intentioned nurses who cannot do a damned thing all the same.

Love Unveiled: A Billionaire's Unlikely Union with his Servant
Love Unveiled: A Billionaire's Unlikely Union with his Servant Love knows no bounds. It transcends barriers of distance, culture, and time, weaving its way through the fabric of existence without constraint. It is a force that defies logic, a feeling that knows no limits or boundaries. Whether near or far, in moments of joy or sorrow, love remains steadfast and unwavering.
