Stoney River: Ghost Memories
Book Review: Blackbirch: The Beginning by K.M Allan
K.M Allan is a writer I have been following since before she became that beautiful mistress of words; an author. Time and time again I have been inspired by her tried and true writing tips. So, when she published her first book, The Beginning, I had to read it, if only to see her writing techniques in action.
He Has Gentle Hands
A blind boy contemplates the arrival of his newborn sibling without favor based off the whispered experiences of a school bully.

Banshee
Fingers tap the window, made of ghosts and mist. It wants me.
Dusk Queen
She slides into the silk, the maid's fingers on the buttons. Hundreds of buttons . . .
Immortal Spirit
She is that which never wavers, silent in the face of bloodshed, smiling in the face of the storm. She is loyalty; forever inspiring.
Guardian Angel
She came from the woods, her hair deserving of jewels and her face as sad as a dying tulip.
Diary Of A Foster Child
A foster child, Jay Baker has been alone since birth. With no one to talk to, his journal pages become his family as he chronicles his journey toward adoption.
Imagination
Worlds come to life, as with the written word, a picture captured in dreams.
B is Butterfly
B is Butterfly . . .
Edward Said
"Is it true you do not spank me because I am blind?"
Father said nothing. Only his breathing sounded as Miles' heart sank. It was true, after all. It was not love; it was because he was blind. Disabled. Different.Â
Silent Witness
Our roots are deep, vines between the knitting needles.
