As The Crows Fly
Synopsis: This is a story about a 14-year old boy, his 12-year old brother, and his crows who help them survive the London streets while they hide from the watchful eyes of The Officer.
I look out through the clock’s face. Its fingers point directly up, as the gears whine and a loud bong marks noon.My crows fly their weird dance in the sky, in irregular hyperbolas through clouds and between the roofs of the buildings. One by one - not to make it too obvious to anyone who might have been looking up - they arc up and dive towards the open window just off the seventh hour.They fly in and drop pennies in the bucket I’ve had prepared in the middle of the room. Then they swerve to the side, where the slats of wood made the walls, and perched themselves comfortably, picking dirt under their wings or staring at the rest with beady eyes.“How much do you think we’ve got?” he asks me.I walk over to the bucket and dug a handful out. “Just enough.”
Stories Etcetera
A collection of short stories
I look at my brother and think how I believe that he - a boy covering his ears with his hands and keeping his eyes shut to the world - can tell me that we would all be fine and survive to see the sunrise the next day. And I don’t doubt it in any way.I hold him tighter in my arms. I sing - not for the rest of the world, and the rest of the people in this shelter - but for us. For him. I just know that whatever is waiting outside, I’d always be coming home._ - an excerpt from "Rockabye" _
Melancholia
Content Warning: may contain emotionally-heavy content about depression, anxiety, etc.
But wars aren’t only fought in grand battles in the middle of the peninsula. They aren’t just chaotic clashes between atrocious gods and a courageous (maybe stupid) hero. It isn’t just crossing swords or firing guns that eventually leads to a bleeding death and another myth that spreads to the next town.It is also, and simply, just you and your day-to-day life.At the heart of every story, at the bones of every fantasy, they are just people._ - an excerpt from "This is Bravery" _
A Strange Oasis
Current Status: Work in Progress
Mundane, simple, perhaps even pointless. A mere laugh. A pretty smile. Perhaps just comfortable night. Not everything has to become a profound story."A Strange Oasis" is a comic series that only talks about the ordinary in the characters' day-to-day life.
Project Boo!
