Gripping the ferry railing as hard as John braced himself against the rolling waves of the ocean. The weather off the coast of Maine was brutal this time of year. But, his Grandfather had summoned them, so there was no choice in the matter. John gripped tighter as the waves splashed hard against the bow.… Continue reading Inheritance
[Note: I realized there was a significant auto correct/spelling error in the last episode: “possess” ended up as “process.” This is the weakness I suppose in this writing every day and publishing format. Most things end up as some form of a rough draft, especially when a lot of other things are going on in… Continue reading Jin and the Solstice of Blood (Part 29)
