He wasn't idle, however, and Violet almost giggled at the rigid and jerking movements that Lorelei briefly suffered at the hands of her 'companion' as he no doubt untied her dress for her. No words were exchanged, and Violet fought to submerge a very unwelcome (and inappropriate) feeling of jealousy that he and Lorelei might well get up to this kind of thing all the time…

How could anyone ruin a handshake? This experience rarely happens in Hawai’i, but frequent when meeting others of diverse backgrounds. In The International Bank of Bob, the author, Bob Harris, quotes that, “I’m still awkward about where to put my own hand in response, so I make a joke out of it, and Hamid and I share a fun moment of goofing around (6).” There are many ways of meeting new people, such as a handshake and a hug and kiss, but no one is expected to know which gesture to use when…

getting as close as he could without escaping his prison. Ruby Ann hadn’t realized it, but she moved, too. One foot followed the other, bringing her closer to him until she could reach out and touch him. Or he could touch her. Her breathing became labored, her heart pounding in her chest and she felt hot. Too hot. She remembered seeing him for the first time the previous night, watching him as a wolf and then the man walking around after his transformation, completely naked. The thought made a…

Whilst the teasing and talking was fun, and added to his appreciation of the woman, it also increased his desire to do something about it, and prove himself to be a man of his word, and to discover if Karmen was a woman of hers. Not that there was much doubt in his mind, from the first view of her up on stage the previous night, she'd exuded…

“Sithe Eani Nothestaree. Afethe Scorgethe Propheir.” Her hands raised, fire burning from her palms. Flames raced up her arms as she stared into the eyes of the creature that had, in essence, become this house. Had become a nightmare. The words came from nowhere and yet came from everywhere. Angela’s mind and body were pure instinct. She wanted to reign it in, but she felt it taking her the way it once took Esme. She opened her eyes and saw the Sun. A burning ball of gas and light which was…

Dave Stevens is an artist from British Columbia, Canada. He created his piece at home using the hand printing technique from a woodblock plate. The woodblock was a plank piece of fur. It had little bit of grain to it, which he says makes it hard to carve sometimes and he prefers yellow cedar. For inking he used and old roller from an offset press that a woodwork teacher had fixed up for him. I particularly liked it because it had handles to the sides just like a kitchen rolling pin. It seemed…

straight line and put his paper in the curve pile of papers. "He's actually been improving if you asked me. If you even cared to look at the monitored homework, you would see as well." He bit his lip and placed a hand over her pen. "Feisty I like it." Diamond roughly snatched her hand from his and flashed her 15 carrot ring. He licked his lips and glared at the glistening moon through her window. "Hey babygirl." A voice boomed through the now quiet classroom. She grabbed his jaw and let his…
