Scardey Cat
The undead are not frightening; they amble around, moaning for brainsssss, while anyone with half a leg can just jump out of the way.
Blood of a Thief
On the way out of the house, the thief’s bleeding hand had grabbed my Bible from where it lay on the floor. There’s a story inside it, one that I hope they read.

I Do Not Delight In Sacrifice
I can’t lump the car crash victim with an accidental pain killer addiction into the same category as a heroin junkie who pawns stolen TVs and old women’s jewelry.
