When I was young, people always told me I was a heartbreaker. I don’t think this is what they meant. It was a hot summer day, and I was sitting in my backyard with my best friend, Lily. We were both sixteen, and we had just finished our junior year of high school. As we sipped on our iced teas, we talked about the usual teenage things – boys, school, and our plans for the summer. That’s when Lily ...
As a chef in the year 2500, I've had the opportunity to experiment with a wide variety of ingredients that my predecessors could only dream of.

I wake up and find a sketchbook lying next to me, its ivory pages filled with intricate drawings and paintings. I sit up, trying to remember how I ended up in this unfamiliar room. The last thing I recall is going to bed in my own apartment. As I look around, I notice the coordinates scrawled onto one of the pages. They lead to a remote location on the outskirts of town, a place that few people kn...
In the year 2523, homes had evolved to become more intelligent and efficient than ever before. The walls were made of a sleek, metallic material that adjusted to the temperature outside, making it comfortable inside no matter the weather.

I love adventure. I'm always up for trying something new, even if it scares me a little. The last time I tried something new was when I went skydiving. I had always wanted to do it, but I was also afraid of it.
