Paint, cold and slick, its acrylic base tortured in pigment until it cried crimson rivulets and gleamed in the pale light of the streetlamp. Concrete bathed in that same light, bare, smooth over yards and rough over inches, porous and thirsty for […]
Lithium – Epilogue – Xperience Fiction – by Liam Sweeny. Plastic capsules and powders pressed into discs and ovals and thin, oblong hexagons rested in Mel’s hand as he reached for his glass, half-filled with water from the night before.

Lithium, Chptr. 20 – Xperience Fiction – by Liam Sweeny. The streets of New York city are a river in the middle of the business day, be it lunch hour or ten a.m. The multitudes ensure that there will always be a human current of errand-runners and lunch breakers or even late-wakers going to the […]

Lithium, Chptr. 17 – Xperience Fiction – by Liam Sweeny. Mel leaned back in the lawn chair, on which he had put pillows he had gotten in trade. Andy was tending their new fire. Among the things he and Hope had done while Mel was working was a stone-lined firepit. Mel was surprised that wasn’t […]
Lithium, Chptr. 15 – Xperience Fiction – by Liam Sweeny. It was, by all accounts, a picturesque day. Partly sunny with a gentle breeze that carried the scent of cinnamon through the camp, strong enough to make the odor of garbage an afterthought. The children outside were cheerful, their voices scattering off tree trunks and […]
