Short Story
A Fanny Full of Wasps. Runner-Up in Whispering Woods Challenge.
I never thought my sister would die. Oh, I know her death was natural, expected. She, of all people, had been firmly rooted in such things, in the give and take of nature. Tender protection of it, and respect for its savage edge. If I'd thought of her end at all, it was the back of her, dwindling from view and swallowed by summer trees. Her stumping off to the woods in her big boots and enormous overcoat with that ancient loyal mutt at her side... and simply never coming back.

Echoes of Everwood
In the quiet town of Everwood, nestled within the whispering embrace of ancient forests, a peculiar tradition prevailed. When someone passed away, their name was carved into a random stone. These stones, scattered throughout the town's outskirts, bore the memories of those who had departed, etched into the very fabric of time.

The Unknown Planet
It was a beautiful sunny day in an unknown forest on an unknown planet in an unknown galaxy that no one has ever been to. This Unnamed and unknown planet was strange, it had two suns, one on each side of it so it never saw night and the temperature never got below one hundred, it also had one moon. That isn’t the strange thing though, this planet was the only one around it for light years. There was plenty of water, there were oceans, lakes, rivers, it looked like paradise and when it rained it was nice and warm. This strange planet had beautiful, lush forests, which spanned for miles but the other thing that made this planet special is that the trees and plants could communicate with each other telepathically. One tree could talk to any other plant life around the planet, even those underwater. There was no other life, no animals, nothing at all.
