Catatonia of The Fairies
by David Hill
I have always known myself to be called, Katie Spears, and that I am the 28 year old younger sister of Janet, the highly successful and beautiful older sister. Because of this, I never felt as if I belonged in this family, in this world, always felt out of place somehow. It wasn't until two years ago when I was "diagnosed" as they believe, that I finally discovered the truth about myself and that this feeling of not belonging had been the truth all along. I discovered who I really am, where I am really from, and that brought such peace that I had yet never experienced. But also this brought a sense of despair because I still remained in this world, this plane of existence, and had yet to reach fully my final destination and true home.
Although the world labels me "mentally-ill", I, alone, know the truth about who I am. I am the queen, the Queen Fairy, and my true identity is Catatonia. This is the place I find myself in moments of meditative stillness; my ultimate escape and destination.
Realizing all of this these past two years came when a presence I had long felt with me but never quite understood, who brought himself into fullness of my mind, that of Bumpass, my guardian angel, my higher self, and my King. It is when no one else understands or sees or accepts, he truly knows and he who has promised to take me home, when the time is ready.

Troubled By Joy
by Diane Nichols
I was invented by Mr. Ted Lawson, an engineer from United Robotronics. He is most famous for inventing V.I.C.I, or Voice. Input. Child. Identicant, infamously known as Vicki, the robot he adopted as his own child, rather hid away this amazing invention in a closet in his house in the suburbs. Vicki was an early and primitive version and thus Ted continued to fine-tune his invention through the years. He eventually realized that hiding robots in his closets was not the smartest thing and also saw how beneficial this technology could be to the world, but mostly to his pocketbook. What the hell was he thinking all these years? Thus, he began selling his creations, making a fortune, divored his wife of many years, left his family behind, and moved to the Hollywood hills where he dated a string of Playboy bunnies, only keeping Vicki for times when the bunnies couldn't be found. His life ultimately ended in his Hollywood mansion, alone, with only the hollow, mechanized voices of his many robots, unsuccessfully stemming of the haunting cries of the many he had wronged and realizing the error of his ways.
Meanwhile, the United Robotronics grew more and more successful, in fact it united the world over, creating the one-world government all the right-wing Christians and the conspiracy theorists warned about and obsessively worried over. But enough about that! Did I worry? Did I care? No, I'm a robot. Not even sharing the factual information about my creator and his demise. It is no trouble at all.

Two On A Match
by Ray Robison
My name is Danielle Rodgers, the second wife of Michael Rodgers and the step mother of his son, Jimmy. His first wife died in a car accident due to her excessive drinking brought upon by the depression over her son's ailing and potentially fatal illness. After her death, Michael went into a tailspin, dedicating his life to finding a cure. He dated various women, only to test to see if they were appropriate "matches" to save his son, if not, he'd break it off suddenly and without explanation. Then, he met me. When I failed to be a match, he attempted to break it off until he saw how dedicated and patient I was in caring for Jimmy.
So, we got married. We settled down to care for Jimmy together and to pray for a miracle. I believed that Michael gave up his quest to save his son, but an offspring's life at risk will prompt some rather dangerous notions in a parent. Michael was committed to his cause.

London Fog For Here
by Mig Windows
Hi, I'm Sam. I'm somewhere in my twenties, if you're wondering. I've always wanted to be a barista, until I became one. Now, I realize its not all its cracked up to be, endlessly making coffee drinks for the faithfully addicted to the 'bean' can become a bit tiresome and make me wonder where my life is heading.
Still, it has its perks. For example, members of the opposite sex seem to find all baristas sexually appealing which results in good tipping. However, there is one boy that I find rather appealing myself. His name is Sam too, though perhaps not short for the same thing. Mine is Samantha and his is Samuel, most likely, but who can tell, really these days. He's cute in that slender like a breakable reed kind of way that makes you want to walk with him in a mighty windstorm just to see...only problem is, he's got a girlfriend or a love interest of some sort. They come in together and I'm always trying to grab his attention away from her, always. That's like my main mission in life now that I've successfully procured the barista gig.
