I apologize....
I apologize to everyone, ive been super busy with the season picking back up. I've got some fresh ideas I've been churning over in the old brain... The more people that contribute to this group, the more fun and interesting it can be. I'd love to see us all work together on some stories and creating universes for our characters and stories to live in and thrive. Nothing is out of line. Everything is acceptable. Write your heart and write how you feel and the truth will reveal itself in the writing.

The marble
*I was inspired to write a Lovecraft-style reverse cosmic horror short story. Let me know what you think about it and if you can guess exactly what am I describing here 😉. Keep in mind that English is not my first language. Thanks for reading!* The Radiation runs. It has always run, from the beginning. It tries to outrun the fleeting galaxies, to out run the end, to reach the beginning. Everything runs in different directions, but there is only one that allows it to escape the end, to chase the beginning. For a brief moment the Radiation grazes something. The immense mass of it marble slows time for the Radiation and it notices the immense marble. The radiation have grazed many marbles in it's run, but never like this one. If the Radiation could feel disgust that's what it would feel. The marble reflected short waves, in the spectrum of the blue. It was impossibly smooth and at the same time tiny indentures and raises rippled it's surface. The marble was covered by a shifty, clear compound. Ever-churning. And where ever the compound writhed on it self, it formed sickly pale emulsions all over the vast and flat expanses. Worst of all this sustenance seemed, maybe due to some sorcery or weird effect, solidify it self on opposite sides of the marble, creating rough surfaces made by the same material apparently, but coalesced like pale, cold scabs on a wound. But not everything was bare or covered in scabs or sweat. Almost imperceptible relative to the amount of the mass was a some sort of green fur. In the region where the marble was scorched by the light of it's uncaring star the green fur receded. And when the horrors seemed most insurmountable the Radiation noticed... creatures. A veritable infestation of parasites of every shape and size inhabited the marble. They were born, multiplied and left their rotting carcasses on the marble. Eating each other or the green fur, which was it self alive, in a mindless attempt of perpetrating the infestation existence like a terrible multi-headed Uroboros! The Radiation fled. As it has always done. As it will always do. But hoping that it will never again meet a marble like that.

The Oklahoman - PART THREE
When Eugene and his father arrived to the boy, he was whimpering like a baby. Disgusting, Eugene thought to himself. Even though the boy was clearly barely twelve, Eugene was utterly sickened by his weakness.

The Oklahoman - PART TWO
"Make sure you got that fucking thing in your sights, boy. You miss, we don't eat." Eugenes father spoke so close to his ear he could smell his rotten, filthy, disgusting breath. His father was forcing him to kill another one. This one looked like it'd be good dinner. He was chubby. Wandering around, confused, probably dehydrated. He cocked the hammer on his .44 caliber rifle and waited "Come on boy, take the goddamn shot you idiot!" Eugene learned to not rush the kill. If you rush the kill, even if you got it, it never tasted as good. "Hit him in the gut boy. We don't want him dead, keep him alive so we can eat on him for as long as possible. He's a fat fuck, look at all that blubber!", his father laughed. Even at one hundred yards away, Eugene could see that this boy was a waste of human existence. Fat. Red hair. Pale, ugly skin. A true city slicker that had lost his way. Bad luck for him. Dinner for them. He took a slow breath, kept him in his sights and as he exhaled, slowly, he pulled the trigger. The gunshot echoed through the plain like thunder. He saw the fat fuck grab his belly, heard a quiet scream from far away and watched him fall to the ground. "Hot damn you good for nothing worthless mamas boy, you finally did one right thing!! Ha ha, yes you did!" Eugenes father jumped on his horse and beat it so hard it screamed before it ran off in the direction of the shot fat fuck. Eugene stood up, knocked the dust off his clothes and got on his horse. He too, beat the horse and rode full bore towards the dinner. He was starving.
