In April of 1860, on her 17th birthday, Anne’s father gave her Wexford, a 15,000-acre cotton and tobacco plantation. He also gave her a new body servant, whom Anne named Moragan.
Moragan is not a conventional slave. She is about 10, Irish, and has a habit of speaking her mind – a trait that annoys Anne profoundly! Moragan, does not know the rules and conventions of being a slave – much less being a body servant, so Anne trains her. It is not an easy task for either one of them, and Moragan is certain her behind will be completely worn away before she learns to behave!
As America begins to fall apart at the seams, Anne and Moragan begin to forge a completely different relationship. Moragan runs Wexford House for Anne, and she learns what it means to be a slave from both perspectives: owner and owned. Anne always reminds Moragan that she and all the other servants are only stock, and not ‘people’.
Both of them are products of their time: and as Anne learns how to govern the society under her, she and Moragan discover who they truly are.
"What does a name matter anymore? Everything I had was taken from me. Everybody is gone, dead. Even death couldn't end my suffering. The only thing I have left is this draw, a need to find the sea, and whatever lies within its waters."
"What will it take to get there?" Briccio asked fighting the strange tired feeling in his head.
"The masters themselves will not keep me from where I am headed. I will leave the bodies of anyone who stands in my way behind me."
Life and Death fight endlessly, tirelessly, for control over each and every person. A lonely man loses everything but gains an ally in death, setting into motion a chain of events that will forever change two worlds and the destiny of every form of life; from the tiny insects of the earth to the ageless dragons that soar the skies.
HERE IS A UNIQUE LITTLE COMIC-BOOK STORY SAFE FOR ALL AGES,
This is a comic-book that has two stories in it actually...
The first comic is about the Flintstones and the Great Gazoo. It is a cute little comic about friendship.
The Great Gazoo overhears a negative conversation Fred and Barney are having regarding him. He is devastated and does not know what to do to resolve the problem but he is determined to regain his friendship back to them. Find out how…
The second story is about who else but the Great Gazoo. He has just been reassigned but how to tell Fred and Barney? And to make matters worse he feels he is coming down with a cold but Zaytoxians react quite differently to head-colds than humans. Read it to ind out more....

(Still a work in progress)
“She thought she knew everything about her family but after her parents accident she found out the truth… About who they were and who she is to become…”
Leslie just expirianced a trajedy. Her parents were killed in a car accident and she is sent to live with her Godmother on the Reservation. Her first day she see's a pair of beautiful caramel eyes watching her through the trees. Little does she know she is about to fall into a world she never knew. Will she find happiness on her home away from home or will she be crushed when she finds out the truth behind her mother's past and accept a future full of excitement and dangers to come?
As the sole heir to the legacy of a Great Royal Fallen, Luca had shouldered many responsibilities in his long existence. However, as a Prince of Hell, he should have never been given the charge of caring for an Angel sealed to Hell with the Hundred-Year Seal . The responsibility of such a task was like holding the only flame in a world of darkness, yet a flame he wanted to possess. M/M
