Days Like These
Note:First draft, any suggestions would be a great help! Inspired by the tragic story of Matthew Trickett. I jolt upright in bed. The acidic stench of cold sweat fills my nostrils, and the sheets stick to my skin. Rolling over, I look at my mobile. No messages. 3:04 am.

Howard Bubski Explains Why He Is Safer Than A Bear In the Forest
You have probably read the headlines: "90% of women would prefer to be alone in the forest with a bear than with a man." The same people who wrote these headlines also say one in three women have experienced being physically threatened by a man. That sounds shocking until you realize there are only 200,000 bears in the world, but 4 billion men. Then it sort of makes sense, doesn't it?
