Apprehension

"Lurking, lying in wait like a predator, it conjures up a fog; my apprehension is causing me to mistrust everything around me. Through that fog, I discern the form of my tormentor. At the top of that form are glowing blue eyes, not with the mischief captured in family photos, but with mayhem – the mayhem that is going to be unleashed on my world that I have no power to stop. I shake my head as the fog dissipates, slowly rolling away, taking with it into the night the shapes that disturb me. I...

Wishes

"I open my hand and force a smile, step to the fountain and close my eyes. I make my wish – the same wish I'd always made – and squeeze my eyes tighter, release the coins, and hear the plunk as they hit.  Opening my eyes to watch them sink, slowly swaying from side to side, they submerge under the glowing surface of the water.

Crushed

"Crushed and unable to breathe, still enveloped in the sunshine with my eyes wide open to the beautiful sky and the colorful swaying tree tops far above me, I'm experiencing the paralyzing horror of those pitch black scenes from past nightmares. Daylight won't protect me. Nothing will save me. It's an omen; even when I think I'm beyond danger, I will not be safe. I feel it as sure as I feel the sun; I will never escape." ~ Excerpt from "Three Rules" by Marie Drake

Fear

"Continuing on, disoriented in fear, I bolt in the wrong direction. The ground crunches below me; twigs and branches reach out to tug at my clothes and hair, clawing at my skin as I frantically brush them away. I'm finding it difficult to move with shaking limbs, my whole body vibrating with terror. My churning stomach collapses on itself making me want to double over and drop to my knees. I'm not going to make it back to my parents' house..."

A Meme With Three Rules In It

After purchasing a paperback copy of Three Rules, he is enjoying a drink in the sunshine. Although he intended this to be a joke about weather in upstate NY, When I teased him that I hoped he didn't sit outside like that to read the whole thing, Ron Monette is quoted as saying "....Lets just say your next publishing should be released in the summer, lol Hard to put down." 25 January at 12:53
