    by Caleb Fast
    Kinn System “She’s nearly ready to be scuttled, sir,” First Officer Reddy says with a salute. Looking out of the bridge’s forward viewing area, Captain Mali can’t help but sigh. Floating haplessly through space ahead of them is the Cambridge, an old frigate that had seen more action than most, but it hadn’t seen nearly enough to earn its salvation.

To the right of them, seated in a rocking chair, was their maid. An African woman in her late thirties who, until a few moments ago, had captivated them with stories.  The room adjoining had fallen deathly silent, disconcerting from the previous moaning and screaming they’d heard.

  • Bad News
    by Caleb Fast
    Alright, I have bad new. 🙁 If you’re seeing this, then there aren’t enough stories in the genre you want to check out! I know, it’s sad. But, there’s good news. What is it? YOU can write a story! Yes, you! Everyone has a story in them. No, we might not be the best at first, but we’re humans and we’re made to learn. Made to adapt. Made to create. If I was able to convince you, then please be sure to check out the page Write With Us and start going through the stories you’ve already written! 😀
