Hitch Pepper
— angsty, dark, gritty —
ongoing
Hitch Pepper might've had a stupid name, and a personality that drove me crazy, but that didn't stop her from being gorgeous. Everyone knew it, guys and girls alike.
And my buddy Phil Childress sure knew it, which was why he plucked up the courage one night in '76 and asked her out after years of pining for her.
I was happy for him at first, until things started to change and she stopped being my buddy's girlfriend in my eyes.
I didn't plan to fall for a mess of a girl with a stupid name like Hitch Pepper, especially when that girl belonged to my best friend, but I did anyways.
Beyond the Broken Angel
— historical, mysterious, romantic —
completed
Giselle Saunders was 10 when she first met William Dare. She thought he was attractive and sweet, but their meeting only lasted a few minutes.
She was 13 the next time she met him. She still thought he was attractive, but no longer sweet. In fact, she found him quite rude and infuriating.
She is 20 when she meets him again. He's still attractive, and still infuriating, but it's during this meeting that she learns something new about him.
He's from the year 1937, six decades before Giselle was even born, yet doesn't look a day over 25.
The strange part? His aunt tells her that she's no longer in the twenty-first century.
The even stranger part? She's telling the truth.

Question: Have you ever set off a fire alarm?
I remember a few months ago I was sautéing onions in my new stainless steel pan and I got it wayyy to hot and didn't realize I was burning them until I looked up and my whole house was filled it smoke and then the fire alarm went off.
I went into panic mode and opened up all the doors and started waving a pizza pan at the smoke detector like a lunatic while the front door was wide open and the whole neighborhood could see me.
