Friday Fiction - In The Dark Moment Before Dawn - From the Vault 2012

A short story wot i wrote in 2012, inspired a little by Patrick Stewart's powerful episode of Who Do You Think You Are and any number of real life people.

In The Dark Moment Before Dawn

'Come back,' she whispered into the freezing air. 'Come back to me.'

FridayFiction - Brasso And Death - From the Vault 2013

I wrote the follow short fiction inspired by a jokey comment by a friend while she was making a Xena: Warrior Princess costuem.

It is really rather dark and there's a Content Warning for depictions of violence and death. It's darker than I expected, so be aware.

Also, I wrote it in 2013 when the scenario seemed mostly unlikely. Today... maybe less so.

FridayFiction - The Road - From the Vault 2012

 I wrote this in 2012, and I only vaguely remember the exact circumstances behind the writing but the images? Still seared in my head.
