Shelling Out | Thoughtstones
https://thoughtstones.wordpress.com/about
Short stories and Verse by Martin A. Hale. Outside the prison the sun drew back its nightly shell, presenting its golden yolk and restoring warmth to the world. It was a crisp, clear morning, but inside the high metal walls of the prison it was balmy and thick with a miasma of sweat from the inmates. Columns of greenish light filtered in through translucent ceiling panels providing an ambience that made everything look pale and sickly. Eventually my pace slowed as my stomach settled. I heard the othe...
Dry meadow | Thoughtstones

Short stories and Verse by Martin A. Hale. Beyond the blackened tree line,. Like dice down the barren hill. With hub and rivet,. Like a button mushroom,. Entombed in petrified grass. In the grey distance,. A column of smoke slopes into the jagged sky. There is no one here with me. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here.

Short stories and Verse by Martin A. Hale. Sir Jasper woke abruptly from his drunken slumber, water drenching him from head to toe. Wake up you filthy oaf! A churlish voice barked. 8220;Wha . . ? Welcome to the King’s prison wretch, the guard said in a strangely foreign voice. He slid a plate of something resembling gruel across the cobbled floor, here, eat this. What had he done and why was he behind bars? Sir Jasper wracked his brain over what had transpired the previous day. Perhaps, but not. I’ll get...
Ume’s Lament | Thoughtstones
https://thoughtstones.wordpress.com/umes-lament
Short stories and Verse by Martin A. Hale. Grieving, grieving for the loss of Goldwing, a sparrowhawk. Ume could feel nothing but an intense agony, a single tear rolled down her blood-streaked cheek where she had cradled him closely as his life had ebbed away. He was now a lifeless form laying limply on the ground in front of where she knelt, an arrow deep in his chest. To Hungra, it seemed she had fallen into a deep slumber. Instinctively he bent down to pick up his only child. 8220;The bird’s spi...
The Painted Face | Thoughtstones
https://thoughtstones.wordpress.com/the-painted-face
Short stories and Verse by Martin A. Hale. Oh yes it is true! Lady Margarette whispered to the duchess excitedly. It is said that with the strokes of his brush, and by some arcane power, he can reverse the damage of years! You are not getting any younger sister, Margarette said smugly. Why isn’t that the Duke over yonder. Who is that he is talking to? Both knew well that the Lady Offington, a recent widow, sought a new husband, and cared little if the party was presently married or not. The party had end...

https://throbstone.wordpress.com/about/ep9-ares-rising
A serialized sci fi story. Ep#09 – Ares Rising. So what’s the deal Gayle? Meron asked as she leaning over a pile of rusted machinery in the primary engine room of the colony ship it was bigger than the entire hold of.

A serialized sci fi story. Ep#01 – Coolands Station. Gayle, who had just slammed his thumb with a power-wrench, jumped up and shook it. Damn it!

Goddamn it, reduced to this! Apple as she headed straight by him, a blue satchel tucked under her arm. Buy me a beer? About a...

A serialized sci fi story. Ep#03 – Sedna or Bust. Gayle sipped his cup of lukewarm coffee and stared out the viewport. Man, a whole lot of nothing.

https://throbstone.wordpress.com/about/ep2-achilles-heel
A serialized sci fi story. Ep#02 Achilles’ Heel. Over there, Meron pointed across the tarmac to what appeared to be an abandoned wreck. Gayle flinched. What?

He hated Manchester, they always won everything. Meron place...

Happy Thoughts
Monday, December 19, 2011. Others we're going to try might include:. I really think that if my mom said "Sorry, guys, no presents this year." We wouldn't be nearly as upset as we would be if she said "Sorry, guys, no treats this year." Can I get an amen? Kara, Of Course. Friday, December 16, 2011. Now, I don't know how to do any of this "attaching pictures" or "labels" or other nonsense, so this is going to take some getting used to. But here's a picture that made laugh:. Anyway, that's my smile for the ...
