For those who found my last story a bit difficult to take, well, this one is at least somewhat less hard on the reader. Or at least it's intended to be. Fighting the Frost Raelorn stood on the edge of the city and shivered. He didn't know which city it was, nor did he care. They were all the same. Cold, indifferent steel and concrete, air thick with dirt and noise. He was ready to stop. He'd been searching too long, and he was weary. Too, cities were not known for being gentle to his kind. The evening was bashful. The sun folded over the sulking Mexican valley. The Holy Ghost, or some tranquil breeze, shuffles the desert trees and stretches shadows over the walking sands. A lone road unwinds the palm of its hand through the warped mountains. The pavement is bankrupted and neglected.  Not a soul to wander or a mind to wonder. In fear of weaning off the silence, even for hunger, the morning birds catch their worms without singing their morning songs. I wouldn’t dare ask questions

After our initial open house, where you saw the contents of our little virtual music club here at Music Up Close, we will be highlighting different rooms each month, but always ending with our cocktail meet-and-greet at the SonicBids Lounge. For September, Club Ladies brings a look a Teisha Helgerson, the frontwoman for the band Amelia.

The Studio’s reviews this month feature beatbox artisFrom The Life of Henry Fuckit, 1950-2015 by Ian Martin The sun was down and Birkin switched on his headlights as they pulled out into the road. The onset of dusk seemed rapid, more so than in Cape Town. They were traversing a plain. Open and flat, its boundaries dwindling into the murky middle distance, without feature except in the west, where the last pallor in the sky provided a backdrop to the occasional silhouette - a weirdly shaped hillock, a low jagged ridge like some rough beast sloucMister Sister occupied an old, abandoned seaside resort beside a wild stretch of coastland, a rundown property he had added to and developed over the years. Rows of ornamental palms had gone completely wild, ballooning between tangled mango trees like the heads of distraught women. A white walled, tinted window comfort zone had been erected on a cliff facing the sea. At one time this complex must have been chic and breezy, with its spacious atriums, glassy balcony’s and rambling kidney-shaped te

These things are what most people suppose make a person wanted among society. What if you could take those features, and trade with your recipient, wouldn’t that be great? On your half or course, but what about the victim…             James “I’ve always

Illustration by Idiots’Books As it turned out, his prison infirmary time didn’t last long at all. Kettlewell had faded fast from the riot, headed back to the guesthouse and got the lawyers on the phone. He’d shown them the stream off of Perry’s phone and they were in front of a judge before Perry reached the jail. Perry was led out of the infirmary with his arm in a sling. His face was still painfully swollen, and he’d managed to turn an ankle as well. At least his hearing was coming backWe rejoin the story as the three touring cyclists are devising a plan for what to do about the massive wind.... Stopped alongside the road, with the roaring wind in our ears, we tried to come up with ideas for what to do to carry on. Running nose to tail wasn't giving any relief. The wind was so strong, there was no draft. Besides, we were afraid we would take each other out working so hard so close together. The wind couldn't last like this, or could it? There was some debate upon this point

Peaches // Photography: Leah Pritchard It somewhat defeats the point of setting a festival in St Malo, a tall, beautiful walled town in northern France, when the first acts of Friday afternoon play in what feels like a sterile Milton Keynes conference centre. After taking a sleepless 12 hour ferry crossing to arrive in 26˚C heat, it’s embarrassingly difficult to sit in the dark of the Grand Palais and stay awake through Mark Kozelek ’s opening set.

He painfully surveyed her beauty from a distance as he waited for her response. Neither of them was distracted by the rain drops that were falling on the roof of the old barn that held so many of their precious memories. Eliza looked at him, no longer with the eyes of adoration that once held Tom in high regard. Instead, they carried the weight of years of pai

September 1st was Outer Alliance Pride Day, and Cheryl Morgan has a round-up of some of the posts associated with the day , with some context about the John C. Wright post that sparked the idea–and there’s the posts linkage on the Outer Alliance site itself .
