CHAPTER ONE

The rain made it easier to rob his grave.

My shovel carved through the sodden earth, the water contorting into murky veins around its edge. Desperation drove each labored thrust, the burning ache in my muscles but an afterthought to the prize that lied in wait. Even the Valera Forest held its breath; the fog thick enough to smother the night's whispers. All was silent save for the spilling of soil under the deluge that drenched us.

Us.

As I lifted my gaze to the boy standing across from me, I found that word had lost all semblance of warmth.

An #agentsguide to 99 Ways To Get Ex-Spelled (Without Committing Murder), a YA Satirical Dystopian Fantasy #writesky #litagents #ya #writingcommunity #amwriting

99 ways to get exspelled without committing murder nuclear desert with schooldesks

The pitch

Anarchocommunist, OCD-ridden Posey Peabody has been drafted into the American Army Academy for Powerful Witches. By entry stats she’s the Winner--First Rank of her class. All is well as can be until Amelia Appleton takes her Rank with reckless, dangerous, wrong magic. And then Appleton doesn’t get expelled.
Competitive streak activated, Posey and Appleton engage in reckless, rule-breaking acts of magic and mischief. While trading First Rank between each other, Posey realizes that Appleton might not be such a weirdo after all. In fact, she’s annoyingly pretty. That said, Appleton’s got her eye on that government position through all this, and Posey would rather die than work for the fascists in charge. Posey’s intention is to truly get expelled. She wants to be the first one to do it.
Meanwhile, an underground betting ring rises up, classmates betting on whether or not Posey will have to kill someone to get expelled. Posey hopes it’s not true, but whether or not she finds out is entirely up to her.

Somewhere behind the stage, Headmaster Josephus Crimble is puking his guts out. I remind myself that it’s okay if I start to count and stop myself after the limit, so long as I don’t make it to ten. If you make it to ten, the limit goes down by one, Posey. Don’t forget.
I started at five hundred.
Drifting through the rest of the day in this half-there state, I sit with my feelings locked tight in a jar of my own design. I’ll preserve my emotions like lemons, until they’re laden with salt and mellowed in their sourness. That feeling, or lack thereof, feels warm as home to me, and my deep yearning for Nukeville ebbs into a soft ache that gently rubs my heart into a smoother, steadier rhythm. There will be no need for counting when there’s no feeling to (dis)regulate.

I'm excited to share my 99-word story for the Augur Microfiction Contest! The Ocean's Bones 🌊💀 @augursociety.bsky.social #AugurMicros2025

Text: I visit her bones on Tuesdays.

In seven seconds, my lungs will scream for air. Seven seconds to mourn a body that nourishes an ungrateful seabed.

Cracks divide her sternum into four parts. Temptation whispers, begging me to take take take. But she’s no longer mine to keep.

Memories crawl forward—unwanted parasites no different than the bone-eating worms sucking on her vertebrae.

My lungs burn, raging at my lack of time management. But I linger, thinking about her touch. Her heart. Her morbid sense of humor.

She was afraid of sharks, but men are so much scarier.

A poster in the style of "STAY CALM AND CARRY ON":

Mission Specialist

"Dame Ivy Smith felt every moment of her seventy years as the Blackhawk thundered over London. As always, the SAS men towered over her, grateful looks on grim faces. Two Oscars, six BAFTAs, a Tony... they didn’t matter. She’d earned this role, whether she wanted it or not.

"As the door opened, Dame Ivy readied her rifle. Everyone knew humanity was pushing back the adversary at last. But as she aimed at the massive beast atop the ruins of St. Paul's, she wished it had taken less time to discover that only a knight can slay a dragon."
