Just another day

Just Another Day

With the recent stories of Nick the Superhero I realized the story that started them all doesn’t exist on Misadventures in its present form. To that end I now bring you the original Nick the Superhero story. You can find the other stories at these links: Blade of the Broken …

Cracked

Sorry but this has been an odd week. Need a quick breather with a blast from the past (originally posted on October 6, 2014). Cracked “Step on a crack and break your moma’s back.” Little Jimmy sang the rhyme as he skipped across the sidewalk. The broken concrete spiderwebbed with …

The Masks We Wear #horror

Still recovering from surgery yesterday. Doing a blast from the past because it’s what I have the energy for right now. The story was first published September 15, 2014. The Masks We Wear “We all wear masks,” Carl said. Dr. Carl Sanderson started the lecture the same way every semester. …
