    Donald H Sullivan

    I'm a native Floridian, retired from the US Army, I started writing in the army, mostly training and tech manuals. Boring stuff, but it whetted my interest in writing. I've written sci-fi, thrillers, mysteries, humor, fantasies, horror, and more. I'm now living in NC. While in the army, I served in air defense artillery, military intelligence, and psychological operations. I also worked in Federal Civil Service as a quality assurance specialist, ammunition surveillance. I love writing, reading, most kinds of music, and animals--especially dogs.

      A Royal Visitor

      As Carma gazed from her cottage window, she came to a decision.  She would leave the village forever.  Life in the village was becoming intolerable.  She was no longer invited to parties and dances.  Boys that used to flirt with her now shunned her, and the villagers treated her like an outcast.

      Her mother’s voice came from the kitchen.  What’s all the fuss?  Who’s out there?

      We have a visitor, replied Carma, from the palace.

      Her mother burst into the parlor, shedding her apron.  By the Seven Spirits, Carma, you haven’t been trying to use your silly magic spells, have you?  If you’ve...

      No, Mum, I’m not so foolish.

      The man reached the gate and stopped, held at bay by the two dogs.
