    Caffeinated Speculation: Have you seen the trailer for “It”?

    All right, where are my Stephen King fans? Are you obsessed with his books? Love his movies? If so, this post is for you! So, this week the brand new trailer for Stephen King’s “It” came out. (You can watch it here, if you’re brave enough!) I have a confession—I probably wouldn’t have even known this movie was coming out if it weren’t for my teenaged girls. See, we happen to be pretty big “Stranger Things” fans. (Like we have a countdown for season 2 in flashing neon lights d

    Flash Fiction Friday: A Cry in the Night

Dylan nodded. “Yeah. Some rich

    Flash Fiction Friday: Darla’s Friends

    “More tea, Angelica?” Darla’s missing two front teeth made her smile appear bigger than normal. “And how about you, Mr. Snuffles? More biscuits?” The girl leaned forward to serve, but knocked the pitcher of juice into Mr. Snuffles bowl. “Oh dear! Sorry about that!” She scurried over. The door opened. “Darla?” Her mom glanced at the empty chairs around the table. “Tea with your imaginary friends?” “Yes, mother.” “Be good.” Then she left. “Angelica, would you shut the door plea
