along with some slides showing preliminary designs.
Regardless of my planning, nothing prepared me for the anxiety I
felt when I walked into the conference room. The room was simply decorated,
with an elliptical conference table, a dozen or so chairs, and a few
abstract works of art on the wall. The room conveyed the essence of

... next 365 days. Instead of trying too hard to lick her boots, I tried my
best to be my natural self in front of her.
Still, I could not shake off the ice-cold image that she possessed
in my heart. True, her corney jokes sometimes sent me into frolicking
laughter, yet at other times these jokes simply fell flat the moment she
uttered them. My lovely class, however was always ready to laugh at the
right time and place of her amusing stories. Afterall, we would not want to
run the risk of her temper erupting in front of us like Mount Saint Helens
spewing molten rock and breathing fire.
Alas, life ...

Practised that too in her head over and over in the nights. Listening to them in
the corridors. If Mary shits herself again tonight she can sleep in it.
Listening to the cries and the calling, I have to get home. I have to, the
children want their dinner. She sits in the bus away from the window. Afraid to
look out. Cars and people on the footpath. People watching. For her. Tom says
it's a nice place, Mum. Warm and clean and friendly and plenty t ...

Our dog, Ginger, ways managed to find the really tough spots were my brother and I had failed our search and took her share of the magical jellybeans.

On Taunting Lacy Lou
Number of Words: 793 / Number of Pages: 3
... She had died peacefully and painlessly. At least those thoughts are what I clung to after waking up drenched in cold sweat and tears. With the whisper of a breeze, I was flung back into the watercolors of my memory, and one nightmare mural of my childhood protruded.
The heat lavishly fed the dirt pathway with the first freezer pops of summer. School had been out for three days, and lobster bodies grazed at home. The sun showed no mercy to my small town during June. I would be turning twelve that summer, and my brother would turn nine. Every summer my brother and I traded jobs. We could either fee ...

"In Africa?" I said in disbelief.
"Yes, here. It's that important."
"But Lyle--"
"I'm an animal over here!" He hissed into the phone. "I can't tell you
any more. I don't dare. Please, Niles, don't tell anyone what happens when you
