The Fourth of JulyThe point is, I fucking hate fireworks. Explosions are prettier, anyway. Also, they are more productive. It's like you're recycling space!
So anyway, that's pretty much... it.

A Walk on SandFor miles there was this unsettling stillness, represented by a calm ocean and empty beach. Behind her, Ninette’s footprints were the only ones to mar the wind-swept sand. The air was so quiet, she could hear her heart beating, a low and quick sound, like the sound of the last bullet in the box, a flat tire on an unfamiliar road.A Walk on Sand
This was the sound of her heart on the beach. This was the sound of Ninette’s own body despairing over its captivity.
She sat. The sand crept up her toes, cold and dry. She felt the sweat on her palms on the sand as she leaned back to look up at the s

The WidowThere is a shattering sound as the glass jar falls heavily from her hands. “Dammit,” she curses, almost in tears.

She had red hair and freckles. Would her baby have freckles? Was that genetic, or happenstance? Ramona’s mother hadn’t had any freckles, and she’d never known her father. Maybe her father had had freckles.
Samuel was dark. His skin was the color of mahogany in the shade, and his hair was so ti

Achille Lies DownAchille didn’t want to be here. He hadn’t signed up for suicide. “If I get home I’m going there in a cof—”Achille Lies Down
“Hey, quit muttering…!”
Achille started at Nino’s voice hissing right in his ear. “You’re the one—” the butt of a rifle came down hard on his helmet, cutting short what would have been a witty comeback. His helmet spared him any real pain, but he got the message: head low, shut the hell up.
Achille cast a glare at Nino for good measure and then turned his dark eyes to the front. Well, it wasn’t so much the front, as the bac
