Changes
Greetings my excellent friends!
I wanted to give a little update. I hope you are all enjoying the holidays. It always feels like once it’s here it flies by so fast, but I’m sleepy today and glad to have the day off.
Since starting the book, I haven’t added much to this site, and I’ve been considering changing it up a little. The Lost Boys would remain the kings, but I would like to expand and…

@writersmonth day 3: seashell
She sells sea shells by the sea shore.
She's always sold sea shells by the sea shore.
Your mother would tell you of her. Warn you of her, in the same way her mother had.
In the same way her mother had. And theirs before them. Centuries of warning, to not buy the shells she sang songs of on the coast.
When you were younger, you'd ask why. Too young to question the non-answer. The simplified "Because I told you so." She didn't know the answer, you realised, when you were old enough to be able to think about it clearer.
You asked your aunt, and you'd always trusted her, but her answer was the same echoing warning.
Curiosity kills the cat, they'd always warn.
Satisfaction brought it back, you whispered to yourself as you walked to the coast one wet and rainy evening. Ignoring generations of threats and words of warning as you looked for the person they'd only ever called 'she'.
Perhaps this was simply what happened to the daughters of your family. You had your own child now, and you told them of she who sold the sea shells by the sea shore. A warning you didn't understand but there was the weight to pass the warning on.
They were old enough to carry on. They were the age you were when your mother suddenly dissapeared, when no one questioned where she'd gone. The same age your cousin was when your aunt disappeared.
You walked the coast. Looking for the stranger selling their wares.
The figure that greeted you was your mother.
She who sells sea shells by the sea shore. Her appearance unchanged, the same face you remembered the day she left. She didn't speak, but simply took a shell from the satchel she carried, passing the bag to you.
You weren't expecting her to simply walk into the ocean. But in a way, it was understood. This is what happened. This is your family.
This is a curse.

2023 Nissan Z Performance
Nissan's Z has it all from A to ... well, you get it!
Z (it’s only Z now) nails modern, yet retro, looks and power …
Not many car lines go all the way to Z.
But Nissan has been going all the way since 1969 when it launched the Datsun 240Z its long-hooded sports car for the rest of us. I thought of it as a mini-Corvette at the time and, well, I still do.
In fact, Nissan’s relaunched 2023 version, now just called Z, has a nose that reflects both…

WP: You're flipping through the morning paper and you see a large obituary, written for you...
Paper. Whether book or newspaper, she still loved the smell of it. Something carnal about it. She hadn't caught up with the times yet, and still preferred the texture over that of a e-reader or some other holo-screen. She expands her arms to read the paper, revelling in the slight ink staining her fingers, and leisurely strolled through the news, as one would take a slow walk through a garden. Best to keep up-to-date with the times, as things tended to change quickly these days. The world was much faster paced than it used to be.
It wasn't until page sixteen, that she caught a photo of herself, and saw the obituary. The years were all wrong, but that was to be expected. You didn't get to be four hundred and twelve, and expect them to get your age right. She sighs, and closes the crisp pages on her own face.
I suppose I have been here too long, she thought to herself, stretching out the morning fatigue. You had to keep moving or you'd make a spectacle of yourself. Too many people ask questions, too many scientists inhabited the place, and Dear Lord and Lady, the politicians would have an absolute fit, if they only knew. She knew her kind tended to steer clear of those places. Anything that put you in too direct a spotlight was asking for trouble.
She'd become nothing but a lab rat, and none of the Morphiani could afford that. The other Morphiani always chose the time for you, because death was like that. Unexpected, or abrupt. It just helped keep you moving, and not too involved. She'd undoubtedly receive a phone call, that would ring three times, and then disconnect, a small reminder that time was a-wasting, while she dilly-dallied.
It was time to go.
Shame, she'd really loved this little piece of Manhattan. But thankfully, she wouldn't have to go too far. She could probably even stay in New York. It was such a lovely place, and the populous was so large, she could lose herself quite easily. Her eyes flicker ever so gently from their aqua-blue to a deep chocolate brown, and her skin darkens deeply with them. Her long blonde hair pulled into itself, into tight, darkening curls of black, and as she stretched once more, she became quite a few inches shorter, her hands and feet, skull and face shrinking a bit to fit the body she now wore comfortably.
Imagining a simple white crop top, a pair of ratty converse, and a pair of overalls, she finished my tapping her lip ever so lightly to make them appear lightly glossed. Good enough. As she left her apartment and other belongings behind as she did, she wandered down the street, humming to herself.
Now, to think of a new name...

Quibble
Daily writing promptOn what subject(s) are you an authority?View all responses
Yes, I do like to quibble. I sometimes get impatient with others who do the same, but I am a quibbler nonetheless.
On my being an authority, I’d most certainly love to quibble. This blog is called Louis N Carreras, Woodcarver, and I suppose you could say I was an authority on carving. But I am just a bit unhappy…

therapy black out
Therapy black out
Trigger warning sexual abuse talk
I had therapy today and in the middle of it, my power goes out. I had to use my hotspot to connect but because I was in the dark, I didn’t turn the camera on. UGH. We were talking about trauma and specifically my mother’s abuse towards me. She sexually abused me from the time I was young, like age 2 to 13. She always had to look at my genitals…

The Jade Fox
“Here’s to putting all old things aside.”
Marko’s voice was in my ear behind me, and before I could turn around, his hands were over my shoulders and around my neck. Then he appeared before me, displaying a wicked smile that said more than words on his lips. That’s when I noticed the tingle on my throat and the cool touch of something dangling at the front of my chest. His smile grew wider as I…

Beweeg elke dag
Beweeg elke dag. Twintig minuten bewegen per dag niet haalbaar? ‘Je hoeft niet te sporten’
Twintig minuten per dag bewegen: meer dan de helft van de Nederlanders komt er niet aan toe. Uit onderzoek van het Centraal Bureau voor de Statistiek blijkt dat 53 procent minder dan de aanbevolen 2,5 uur per week beweegt. Is twintig minuten per dag echt niet haalbaar? “Veel mensen denken…

2023 Nissan Kicks SR
Kicks is cute, low-cost, and loaded with features. Perfect for a young family or kids heading off to college or a first job.
Low-cost Kicks loaded with a bevy of standard features …
Remember when entry-level cars were bare bones beaters?
I’m thinking Ford Mavericks, Chevy Vegas, and AMC Gremlins of my youth, or more recently Honda Civics, Toyota Tercels, and Nissan Sentras.
Times change and this week’s cute low-cost two-tone mini crossover is chock full of modern electronics and features that you might not…
