The abandoned Wing..
As a child, I always loved visiting my uncle's house. It was an old, sprawling mansion with sprawling gardens and countless rooms. But there was one part of the house that always piqued my curiosity: the abandoned wing. My uncle always warned me to stay away from it, saying it was dangerous and that I could get hurt. But as I grew older, my curiosity grew stronger, and I found myself drawn to the forbidden part of the house.

Morgawr of Cornwall, England
I haven't mentioned this in a bit, but anyone who has been following me for a while knows that I maintain a massive list of ideas for things to write about. I'm always adding to it, and at the time of writing this, the list is over 1,000 items long. To choose what I write about, I use the old trusty method of generating a random number. Sometimes, themes come up, and occasionally, the randomizer happens to do something even more interesting, like Morgawr, a sea monster of Cornish folklore.

The Unseen Price
It was a stormy night, and the rain lashed against the windows of the small, dimly lit office. The timepiece struck night, and the hopeless salesman, Mark, sat hunkered over his office, his eyes bloodshot from hours of gaping at the computer screen. He'd been floundering to meet his deals targets for months, and the pressure from his master was getting unsupportable. With his job on the line, Mark felt as if he'd no choice but to resort to drastic measures.

Appalachian Grandpa Tales: The Little People of Kepchki
I sighed as I took in the destruction in the shed. It had been like this all week and I was getting a little tired of it. Something had been breaking into our sheds and chicken pen, and I was at a loss to determine what it was. It was big, but it was also smart, and neither doors nor windows seemed to bother it much. It ate meat, as the four new chickens we had just bought could attest, and grains, as our ripped open sack of fish feed and chicken feed could attest. I had wondered if it might be a young bear cub, but Grandpa thought it might be a fox, given its craftyness.

Trapped in the Booth
I hadn’t wanted to go to Applebees, but my friends insisted. I’m not opposed to going out to have a meal, but I hate going to the Applebees in our town. It’s a gathering place for every half drunk Chad and happy hour drunk who doesn’t have enough money to drink at the yacht club but too much class for the Tilted Stool. We aren’t big drinkers. I mean, we like to tie a few on sometimes, but these guys get downright sloppy. We get the booth as far from the bar as we can, but it’s still so damn noisy in there! By the end of the night, we’re all yelling at each other just to be heard over the jukebox and the drunks. I spend the rest of the night with my eardrums pounding and my head ready to crack open.

The Bad Harvest
In the small city of Ravenwood, the afterlife crop was the most important event of the time. It was a time for growers to reap the fruits of their labor and to celebrate their hard work with their families and musketeers. But this time, commodity was different. The fields were barren, and the crops were withered and rotting on the vine. It was as if the earth itself had turned against them.
