Highlights From This Year's
Young Writers Group
Untitled Short Horror
By Jack Laura
I was on my way to Cape Cod, Massachusetts around 4:00pm, so I need to stay in a hotel. It's now 9:00pm, and I'm at my room at the hotel. I thought to myself that the counter clerk was kinda off, but I didn't mind it.
After an hour I went to sleep, then the phone rang. I answered is and it was the clerk saying, "There's someone in your room!"
I panic!
I saw eyes. They were yellow. I ran, tripping halfway, but I made it to my car and drove the rest of the way to Cape Cod.
I like to believe that that man was caught and got the help he needs.

A Feeling in My Veins: The Story of the Cold Blooded Killer
By Jack Laura
I was in some guys car. I waited for him to stop but I got my knife ready, but then he was gone. I realized I was heading towards a tree! I had to jump out, but I crashed. I was still alive. What could have happen? Then I get a feeling in my veins. I turned pale, I cut my face into a smile. So go on a rampage after the fall. I was never seen again.

The Ghost That Lived in My Closet
By Jack Laura
Something in my closet was making a strange noise so I open the door and there was nothing. What was I worried about? 2 hours later it came again, I open my closet door and there were eyes. But it disappeared so I go back to sleep. 1 Hour later I hear a creak on my floor board. It was a black figure, and it started to charge so I run outside to call the cops. Then the cops come and talk to me saying…
There was no one there.

The Figure That Lives in My House
By Jack Laura
As I carefully enter my house the door shut behind me. It was weird, this was my home, who could be doing this? I don’t worry so I watch TV. 1 hour later I go up to my room to go to sleep. An hour after that I wake up and I hear breathing to my right. I thought it was just my cat so I go back to sleep 30 minutes later. I don’t know what woke me, but there was a black figure standing there! I make a break for it, tripping halfway there I call the cops, and they say it was a homeless man who had been living under my bed for weeks!

Summer Sense Exercise
by Clara Bates
Dappled light swims over long grass and weeds, alive with bugs that crawl, and bugs that hover. The see-saw song of crickets and cicadas mingles with the chatter of birds, gradually overpowering as the shadows grow longer and the sun bruises with the coming of the night.
