Author has written 44 stories for Life, Religion, Song, Nature, Friendship, Love, General, Spiritual, and Family.

I have no idea where most of these came from except God. I would only ask that you give your opinion of any that you read.

I would have to say that "Cue the Curtain", "Upon Realization", "Live", "Fairycastle Dreams", "Understand Me", "Intended", and "Wishing to Live" are probably my best works, although I like them all.

A big thank you to all who have reviewed and those who have put this on their favorites list!

And now a clip from the best book ever:

"What is real?" asked the rabbit one day … "Does it mean having things that buzz inside of you and a stick-out handle?"

"Real isn't how you are made," said the skin horse, "it's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but really loves you, then you become real."

"Does it hurt?" asked the rabbit. "Sometimes," said the skin horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are real, you don't mind being hurt."

"Does it happen all at once, like being wound up," he asked, "or bit by bit?" "It doesn't happen all at once," said the skin horse. "You become. It takes a long time."

5. Intended reviews
It's come to my attention recently that so many people are walking around as humans with a soul, but they're not, they are souls, with a human body. It leaves my mind in turmoil.

9. My Best Enemy reviews
I don't think it rhymes at all, but that's not the idea here. The idea, is the idea itself. The pain, the music behind it.

A life forever changed by another. Try to read the first line of each paragraph two different ways, as if the comma was a break from sentence to sentence, and as if the comma isn't there.
