Magic of Music

Thwarting Fate

Desperation made my hands shake as I poured the salt circle around myself, meticulously checking that there was no break in the line.

The Hollow Tree

There is a legend in my small town, about our Hollow Tree. No one knows how long it has been there, and no one knows where it came from. It has been a focal point of our culture since any of us can remember. The Hollow Tree earned its name because it is seemingly hollow. When you rap on the […]

Sunshine Resort – Part 2

This is Part 2 of Clever’s short story. You can read the beginning here. … I was determined to find this killer.
