The Ritual
Posted by dewight in FREE Fiction on May 20
This flash fiction eventually grew into my novel: The Light Within The cultist pulled a hood over my head blocking all light. I could hear the other members of the cult chanting in some guttural, gurgling language. The smell of whatever they were burning was making me nauseous.

Holiday on Pintor IV
Posted by dewight in FREE Fiction on May 13
The gravity of Pintor IV was minuscule compared to Klaus’ homeworld. The local fauna floated rather than crawl or walk.

I’ll Never Forget the Day I Died
Posted by dewight in FREE Fiction on April 15
I’ll never forget the day I died. Death is one of those momentous moments, kind of like birth in its own way.

A Funny Fog

“Well that’s funny,” Marvin said. “Funny ha ha or funny strange?” Beatrice, Marvin’s wife roused from her doze at Marvin’s statement. Her hair was piled unevenly from sleeping against the car window and she rubbed her eyes as she tried to determine what Marvin thought was funny. “Strange,” Marvin said. “See that fog bank up […]

Jake Park pulled off his headphones and ran to the window; whatever just happened was much more interesting than his online game. “Did you hear that?” Jake’s door flew open as his older sister, Marie, rushed to join him at […]
