Once a Troll
Greetings, readers! My apologies for missing last week. I was grabbed by a troll and trapped in a fairy hill. I managed to escape, but I decided to write this modern version of Charcoal Nils and the Troll-Woman a little differently.

Charcoal Nils and the Troll-Woman
Turns out that making charcoal is pretty hard. |

Settling a Debt
Hello, reader! As some of you know, I just got married! Don't worry. You can still find all of my writing under the name Debbie Newcomb. And I should have more time for writing now that all that craziness is done.
For this week's story, we have a retelling of Second Sight. I updated it but decided to keep the magic because who doesn't like being able to see the future?
