A Fair Price (Write with Me #3)
The moon broke through the clouds and the four of them stood there, frozen, waiting for something to happen. They were in the middle of an open field, and it was as if a spotlight had been trained on them.
A House Divided
The Steward nodded to the Chatelaine. “The Baron requests that his wife call upon him at her earliest convenience.”
The Chatelaine curtsied in reply. “The Baroness informs her husband she is unwell, and declines his request. He may, however, call upon her tomorrow, when she has recovered.”
Coffee
Over the hiss of milk being steamed, and the rustling of paper coverings stripped from straws, I think; I can’t do this.
Haunted House
She’d never truly noticed it, not until she heard its voice. Heard it call to her, a cacophony of noise, like each brick was the member of a choir with their own secret song.

The Princess in the Clouds
High above the world, she slept. The SS Thorny Castle, floating high above the world with its single passenger. A girl of sixteen, fast asleep for over a century.
You could tell because airships had gone out of fashion ages ago.
Time Travel
Shakespeare has been outside my window for the past three nights. It’s rather annoying actually. He’s far too fond of composing sonnets about me, and it’s not at all flattering having my hair compared to a loo brush. At least he’s not holding up a boombox. I don’t think I can handle Peter Gabriel at this present moment.
