    Present Circumstances

    Present Circumstances

    No matter what holiday you celebrate, or what traditions you keep, being away from friends and relations during these times can be difficult. The holiday season is made even more challenging for those that must work away from their home when they would rather be celebrating with family. But sometimes duty calls. And in these times, we can only hope that the work has meaning. For Captain Chris, our character this evening, these are his Present Circumstances.This story was written by Phillip Clark.

    I Side With The Witness

    I Side With The Witness

    We all have a job to do. For some people, this is a mantra that they repeat to themselves for their professional life. For others, it is much more personal. But the simple facts remain that work needs to be done, and we all must share in the responsibility. Of course, this means forging relationships to help us accomplish what we need to. But who do we side with? Often, you just have to take a shot, and hope that you have a good ally. In tonight’s short tale, we find out why one person states I Side With The Witness.

    I Won’t Go Back To The Other Side

    I Won’t Go Back To The Other Side

    It has been said that “the road to Hell is paved with good intentions.” But who determines the quality of anyone’s intentions? Is it purely for us to figure out for ourselves, or do the manifestations of intentions define whether they were good or bad? In tonight’s story, which is related to an earlier story of ours titled “Gather The Pieces,” Dr. Casey Edwards gets a chance to explain his intentions. So let’s be open minded while we listen to him explain why I Won’t Go Back To The Other Side.This story was written by Phillip Clark. It was directed, engineered, and edited by Phillip Clark.

    Fear Not The Shadow, But That Which Cast It Not

    Fear Not The Shadow, But That Which Cast It Not

    Fear is one of the most basic of human instincts. However, it doesn’t do anyone any good to just be afraid. Fear is a driver - something that is supposed to push you into action. Of course, it helps to know the difference between a legitimate fear and an irrational one. That being said, our story tonight can’t discuss every fear, but it can give you a simple warning about one: “Fear Not The Shadow, But That Which Cast It Not.”
