Priya Ardis
“Soft sun shone down on a misty cathedral at the opposite end of a football-field length courtyard. The cathedral had a long pointed tower with beautiful rose and ivory stained glass windows. Pink-petal flowers and deep green ivy climbed the stones from the ground to it’s roof. A large fountain stood in the middle of the courtyard with water falling from several lion’s heads. Between the misty air and rolling slope of the earth, the grounds reminded me of a long lost fairy tale.”
― Priya Ardis, My Boyfriend Merlin

Stephanie Bedwell-Grime
“While his brain lay slowly dying, Bevan felt his body come back to life.”
― Stephanie Bedwell-Grime, The Deadwalk
