Today, there won’t be a chapter. I wanted to instead take a moment to reflect on everyone that’s responsible for me finally doing this. These people are either inspirations, fellow writers I’ve bounced ideas off of, supportive friends, close family that helped me out of tight spots, and anything else that has lead to thisContinue reading “Author’s Note 1 – 08-25-2020”

The strangest feelings came from the strangest revelations. Perhaps it was more accurate to say that this specific scenario was strange, but I had the very correct feeling this was one of a few strange things to come today. The woman certainly looked like me, but she was far too young to be a grandmother.Continue reading “June – Chapter Nine”

My sleep in this unfamiliar new home was disrupted by the sound of bells chiming in a specific pattern, signaling what I had to assume was the beginning of the day for this city. I thought about how bizarre it was to have a specific time for waking up, but shrugged it off as somethingContinue reading “June – Chapter Eight”

I decided to voice these thoughts as soon as we left the port, saying goodbye to the busy working folk thereContinue reading “June – Chapter Five”

My gaze flew above me as I departed the Tower District to observe the birds native to this country. Beautiful creatures, able to leave any semblance of restriction behind and as frail in body as the concept thereof was in mind. Amused by this ironic duality, I almost didn’t hear the gatekeeper behind me thankingContinue reading “Arceia – Chapter Two”

As sincere and dry as ever, I thought as I departed from the red man’s company. But the girl, June, was such a porcelain tomboy. Her agitated state was filled with the fervor of naivety. As intolerable as it was adorable, I remember thinking. Without further delay nor reprehensible flirtatiousness in mind, I increased myContinue reading “Arceia – Chapter One”
