The Ballad of Rika Strong-Arm - Episode 3
Thankfully, sparring matches with Fynn never got quite so intense as that one match again, but I was far from done with my training. We avoided full force throws, or other maneuvers that could disrupt the crew, but Fynn was still trying much harder to hit me than he had been before. Part of me wished we could train with less intensity, but I understood the importance of using real force. In the event I was required to wield a blade, I would need to strike with intent to kill, or be killed myself.

The One Backpack
My wife says: Men have lived with women since the time of Adam and Eve. The strange thing is that men do not know much more about women than Adam did at that time. To this day, men look at women as if they were seeing them for the first time, and do not understand even the simplest things, such as a woman's tears. I experienced such an incident in my childhood, which is still unforgettable.

A Vision of Life
I was sitting in my favourite chair watching Enid work she has always been very house-proud a place for everything and everything in its place. That is always one of the crunch points between us. Enid is king-like in the tidiness stakes, while I am more of the dirty rascal. We no longer talk anymore. More often, or not I ask myself, was I glad to cheat on Enid? Would I do it again? The first time I cheated was with a girl seven years younger, her name was Anya. I met Anya when Enid and I had one of our massive arguments, probable about money or something minuscule. I stormed out and consoled myself in my local The Star. I am not sure if Enid knows about Anya and my clinches, or for that fact our many clinches, even clinches in the marital bed. The thought of us being caught even gives me goosebumps now just thinking about it.

Immortal's Throne
Donny Reese: Sep 12, 2019 “We are not a school, we are farmers harvesting the future!” That line had my parents salivating and a week later I was on a bus to the middle of nowhere. A scrawny kid plucked out of Phoenix, Arizona because of an essay that was truly “profound”. Yes! The essay was profound, profoundly plagiarized. I didn’t write a single word of it, I probably should have mentioned that before getting on the bus to Mass Burial Site, USA.
