Susan had been waiting for this for what seemed like forever. The series finale of her TV show she had been watching for some time. It was going to be a bittersweet moment because part of her routine was going to be ending. Mind you, she would get the answers to the questions that I [...]

FFFC/WW: Rule Breaker
Never wear a hat indoors. I press my hat firmly to my head and smile. I glance at the busy sidewalk outside of the window before turning my attention towards my journal. I don’t care what people think about me while I am furiously scribbling in my book. Rules are meant to be broken, after [...]
FFFC: Moment of inspiration
“Oh my God!” I pushed my hands against the car window as we were travelling down some random road in Arizona.,. “I have a great idea for a TikTok video. Thing is, I need to pull over right now to get out the car and do it.”My mother was used to my requests and did [...]
FFFC: The open road
(this seriously looks like the idiot Jeremy Clarkson, have you any idea how long it took me to get them out of my head to find a story?) Nothing could beat the freedom of the road or the gust of wind blowing in his hair. Ian absolutely loved his shiny new convertible and was sure [...]

FFFC: Fun and games
Being a clown is not always about fun. Mainly it is. My job after all was to attend children’s parties and performed my tricks and jokes to make their day even better. To be honest, I love my job. I have never had a problem with any of the children that I have dealt with, [...]
FFFC: Wishing
That bridge has become my special spot. It was a place where I would sit and daydream about the life I could have had, and should have had. That car crash had taken more from me than I would have thought possible. My confidence, my ambitions, and my mental health. Everything had declined, and all [...]
