Why I was brought in to solve a mystery of people getting and staying healthy was a bit curious on its own. They were all terminally ill. And in quarantine. Yet one nurse and her student "angels of death" had been able to reverse this deadly disease that modern "medicine' had created through...

She was different - and could be mankind's savior, or it's worst enemy. The third generation born after a freak accident, her kind were shunned by humanity. Because they meant walking death. Until one human showed her compassion. Then her gifts came to view. Her parents and their parents...

Rose doesn't know why she survived the accident and everyone else was dead. It was horrible. And she hasn't been able to cry since. Even at the graveyard where she was now. And then she looked over a few rows and saw a guy standing in front of a grave marker of his own. He looked too...

The third time she was beaten up by a different roving city gang and this time left for dead. The guy who saved her life wanted to help solve how she ended up that way. What wasn't working was to be anything they wanted. White, Black, Male, Female, Gay, Straight - someone was always offended,...

Time haunted her. It didn't do what it was "supposed to" when she was around. It ran forward, backwards, sideways. Sometimes time helped her solve her problems, sometimes it made them worse. For a lovely young woman, you'd think there would be young men lined up to talk to her at any...

What happens when politicians get old and can no longer be trusted? Out of power, living on a trust fund, her philandering husband living his own life without her.  Only her dreams of one-time fame (and an often re-filled case of wine) to keep her company, and her old campaign adviser...

Tragedy struck. And I never had a reason to smile after that funeral. Or talk to anyone other than I had to. I'd rather sit in my room and re-read my Nancy Drew and Box Car Children books. Until my Dad brought home a puppy from a farmer down the road - last of the litter. Dad got this...

TO DREAM OF TALKING WOLVES AND CROWS might be strange to some. To act on what they tell you to save some wild pups in an abandoned building with an unknown menace threatening your life - well, that might be crazy. Kelly liked to read. And she had an active imagination. So talking to...

How Can You Save Your Own World When You're Stuck In Someone Else's Dream?

She...

The nightmare came as usual, and woke him in sweats and a blinding flash of light - also as usual. Right on his birthday. Their birthday. No prescription or alchoholic drink did any good. Didn't even give him a buzz. Long walks, working at some hands-on project - those were the...

**An unintended result of a terrorist bombing a children's hospital,**the Lazurai could kill a person without touching them. The government made it worse by their experiments. All the children wanted was to feel love like any child. When they grew older, their powers increased. And they found...

A couple of days after the cities died, I was there. Dancing. Whether it was appropriate or not, there was no one around to care. I had things to celebrate and this was my way. Because I and my family were still alive. And perhaps it was a wake for those who weren't. It...

I was walking in my pasture one sunny afternoon when a pair of hands pulled me into the underworld. Once I arrived, I relaxed - a bit. Because it was an old friend. Carol. A time-bender and now a Lazurai as well. Meaning she could walk through rock - and other things. "Hi John. How have...
