Late Autumn Photography

Hello, everyone! For two weeks, I have been home with covid. However, for the past couple of days, I have felt nearly normal! Today, I felt well enough to go take some pictures in the woods. I had a fun time in the sunshine, and I got a few that I’m happy with. Let me […]

What I Was Looking For | Part II

I sat alone in the silent dormitory. I was supposed to be packing my things, since a car was coming to take me to my parents in two hours. But I wasn’t planning to attend Everett’s funeral. The previous night, I had sneaked into the nurse’s office and stolen a bottle of sleeping pills. I […]

What I Was Looking For | Part I

Maisie, why were you born? My reflection gave no reply. I turned from the bathroom mirror in disgust. What was I missing? A laugh from the hall outside the bathroom startled me to action. I washed my hands and splashed my face with cold water, attempting to feel alive. All I felt was my throbbing […]

Flash Fiction | The Unexpected Visitors

For a fun homeschool writing assignment, my mom had us write a 300-400 word story beginning with this sentence: When they finally unlocked the door, they were met by the smell of furniture polish and old books. It had to have a surprise ending. I really enjoyed writing this piece, and I hope you enjoy […]

Snowy Day

We got some lovely snow a couple of days ago. The next day was bright and sunny, so I decided I had to go out and get a few pictures. There aren’t many, because I was hurrying to take them between school, lunch, and work. But I had fun! Enjoy! God thundereth marvellously with his […]

Why Do We Have Free Will?

This is a more serious post than usual for this blog, but it is part of my “days.” 🙂 I wrote this essay for school, and my mom (who is also my teacher) helped me edit it after I turned it in. It’s about the existence of evil and free will. Let me know what […]
