    About this ebook

    **Everybody knows it's either sticks and snails and puppy dog tails or sugar and spice and everything nice.

    But is it a fair game if there are only two choices?**

     

     

    Midnight; a magical hour but there's only one night a year when it happens twice.

     

    It's been agreed that the clock is changed across the globe but is it also agreed that the occasion is special?

    Judge for yourself because anyone who stays up to see the hour rewind can be welcomed into the Game Of The Hour Lounge where for an hour (hence the name) you can roam to your heart's desire.

    Play once, twice, a hundred times you can wager as many chips as you can create. Win a bear the size of your house, spend your hour at the buffet or chat the time away with the other players. Do whatever you like! The choice is yours.

    But beware if you don't play *and be more aware* if you do.

    You won't miss it, but it might miss you.

    Crow and their sister Trisha are about to experience the once-a-year midnight and all that comes with it. Will they survive the hour?

    Step right up, place your bets!

    -

    A short standalone story about sisterhood, identifying as nonbinary and how one might affect the other.

    Who knew coming out of daylight saving time could be so exciting?

      Diary Of A Country Mouse

      Mar 3, 2020

      THURSDAY, 10 DECEMBER. Giles shows us the sample mice and I am, as if for the first time, overcome with joy. Perhaps when I was a child I had feelings like this—but not in many years. I look, for instance, at a small gray mouse, smaller than the othe

      The List

      Mar 10, 2024

      “So, who’s on your list?” Nick looks eagerly at me. I take a sip of my coffee. “What list?” “You know. The list.” He shovels a handful of popcorn into his mouth. “She’s on mine.” He nods toward the TV. “Keira Knightly?” I ask. “Yeah.” “I still have n

      Perfection

      Jun 9, 2020

      For years I could barely write a page. I thought I was becoming a virtuoso of smallness while the grief, which is wordless, occupied an ever-greater volume. My friend lived in the estates on the bad side of town. Let’s go to the forest, she said when

      Turning Black Queer Rage Into Black Queer Joy

      Oct 1, 2021

      I have never been comfortable setting a place at the table for my anger. I always invited passion and excitement in and tolerated anxiety at the time, believing it was a by-product of my two favourite guests. But where was contentment, calm and joy?
