My Little Black Book
It all started with that little black notebook. I'd received it in the mail on my birthday. No sender was listed and the enclosed note simply read "Happy Birthday!" I flipped through the empty pages and wondered who sent it. The notebook itself was clearly high quality. It had an elastic closure and an attached bookmark with lined pages. Whoever sent it even personalized it with my name at the bottom. I didn't need a notebook though, so I tossed it on a shelf and planned to keep it there.

LBB.
“Come on you pussy, hit me!”, she spat, her words like venom. She had nothing left to lose, and her world as she knew it was crumbling around her. He took a step towards her. She had struck a nerve, had she? He was positively seething. His dark, narrowed eyes were fixated on hers. This was the most emotion she had witnessed from him in a long time.

The Table
"You have no idea what you're asking." "Thirty thousand for both, or I take neither." The first book, the one the old man had originally offered, was enormous by any metric. A foot and a half by over two feet long with four full inches of deckle-edged paper between its red leather covers, it sat like a plump idol in the center of the kitchen table. There had been a design tooled into the cover once, something lovely and meaningful, but the same hands that had worn the silver clasp black with tarnish had smoothed it into obscurity.

The Door in the floor
Though the house was old and need a lot of work, the rustic look was just what the young couple was looking for. Getting away form the city is what they needed, more specifically, what their marriage needed.

Oh little book
The book had arrived only a week ago and now a relative I never knew about was dead and I was $20000 richer. My logic is telling me that it can’t be the book yet my senses are screaming at me that it was the book.

Ember
Tears streamed down her face as she stood on the cliff edge, mixing as they ran down her cheeks with the rain that was falling in sheets across the vast expanse of steely grey. Sobs wracked her chest, the sound of them drowned by the waves crashing on the rocks below. Snot flowed from both nostrils and her hair was plastered to her forehead, but Meg didn’t care. Who was she trying to impress? The unfortunate dog walker who would find her once the storm had passed? The coroner performing her autopsy? It didn’t matter now. None of it mattered anymore, now that it was all about to be over.

The Little Black Book
It's a fact that If you meet a man from Ireland and he tells you he was born in 1980, you have a 10 to 1 shot that his name is John Paul. There’s a club of John Pauls, a nod to the Pope and the weekend he spent touring Ireland in 1979, a time when half of Ireland whisked itself into a frenzy of Pope John Paul II adulation.

Little Black Book
On the way to the bus, I stopped to smell the roses. There were many roses lined up and down the streets of Salem, Oregon. The euphoria from the wonderful smells lit up my nose and made my head dizzy. The smile I had on my face and the happy feelings I was having were leading to a crazy and manic state.

Five Misconceptions About Setting Boundaries
“Personal boundaries define you as an individual. They are statements of what you will or won’t do, what you like and don’t like, how far you will or won’t go, how close someone can get to you or how close you will get to another person . . . they are your value system in action.” — Gary and Joy Lundberg

Templar's Hill
A hidden secret sat below the 2000 year old tree. Aubri began to dig with pure curiosity. Sweet old Aubrianna lived a comfortable, sheltered life. She grew to be a modestly well off archeologist. Aubri fell in love with history as a child while intently listening to her grandfather's mesmerizing stories of Templar's Hill. She knew it well since birth. The small historic settlement was the home of Aubri’s ancestors for centuries. The ancient hill was only steps away from the family's cozy 4 bedroom house converted 300 years earlier from the bones and body of an ancient Templar's church. One of Aubri’s favorite stories was about a great ancestor named Elizabetha Vierrak V’Ungerstonn.
