I sit among the bare branches thinking of loneliness. How tight a grip it has. How deep the roots of fear must go. It must be a horrible life. To live each day unable to move, unable to intertwine with another. My legs dangle beneath me, free of any confines. What would it be like, … Continue reading Bare Branches

What Does the Future Hold?
I attempt to consider what the future holds for me and I can only manage to hold a few dozen possibilities in my mind at once. The variations are as our parents told us, infinite. We can be almost anything we wish to be. The real decision which many of us put off, giving one … Continue reading What Does the Future Hold?
Mistborn Trilogy
It took some time to finish this trilogy. Partially because I was invested in the hunger games trilogy, and partly for the fact that I didn't want it to end. A very good friend of mine spoke of this series years ago. I brushed it aside like sand, yet it continually reemerged in our conversations. … Continue reading Mistborn Trilogy
Life’s Carousel
It seems to me, the meaning of life is lost. Maybe that is why no one knows it. As if the human race is on a carousel trying to look out at the crowd. Yet we are all moving far too fast to find our loved one's hidden among the blurred faces. Constantly moving, swirling … Continue reading Life’s Carousel
Catching Fire
I am hard pressed to say that Catching Fire, book two of the Hunger Games series, is even better than the first book, but it is. Just when I thought I knew what was going on, just when I felt like I had a moment to feel relaxed, everything is ripped away. My world is … Continue reading Catching Fire
Mistborn Review
According to a very good friend of mine, this is second best only to Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card. I would have to agree with him on this account. Brandon Sanderson creates a stunning system and follows it up with one twist after another. It was very difficult to put this book down because … Continue reading Mistborn Review
Hunger Games Review
To simply describe this book as amazing would be a huge understatement. Such a simple description would not do it justice. Everything from the characters to the plot and sub plots were all very well put together. From the first page I was hooked and could barely put the book down. I had to force … Continue reading Hunger Games Review

Three Jobs and Still No Money
We must be missing something, or maybe it is just me. I got to thinking, during the non existent time that I have, that there must be something I am missing. I have no time and no money. I work three jobs, go to school full time, write on the side, and try to have … Continue reading Three Jobs and Still No Money
It’s time, to make time
There is something very wrong with how things are now days. I will be the first to admit, my life is not nearly perfect. Even when everything seems great. When all is going well in my life, there is something missing. It is a dark hole, hidden away from all thoughts and emotions. It is … Continue reading It’s time, to make time
