Jacob's Stories
Good Spy Mate
I used to live in a big house in Sidney, Australia.
Party Rock
The party ship crashed into the planet of no parties. Miraculously, all of the inhabitants of the party ship survived, thanks to their ginormous automatic airbag system they invented prior to losing their minds to the booze. When they walked out they decided to throw a new party.

Smog’s Fog and Sog
There is a jazzy looking man who lives alone in his mansion. He has 3 dogs and 3 hogs in his backyard. In his free time, he tends to a large ranch and has lots of farm animals to care for. He does not have much of a life outside of working on the farm, but he is dedicated.

Fighting The Fear
"9-1-1, what's your emergency?" The woman on the other end asked me. As Jackson continued with his seizure, I panicked, trying to tell her that he was scaring me. She sent an ambulance and stayed on the line with me, telling me to remain calm. They took him with Lulu in the back.

Life’s a Beach
When the email came, it was brief and blunt. "I have left the keys at the house," it read, "One beneath the turtle potted plant and the other under the mat. If you fail to find them, may I recommend nearest Four Seasons?" There was no signature line.

Little Robot Puppy & the Secret Pickle Colony
The robopup was a cute little robot puppy that had a big head and a tiny body. It cuddled along its owner's leg, panting and licking the leg. It was ready to follow its owner on a grand adventure! It waited. And waited. And waited. Then it realized its owner was dead.

I'm a rare prosecutor with a backbone, going after the rich and corrupt who knowingly and openly plotted to destroy the world with climate crime. The temperatures are rising and the wildlife is dying, and those mafia oligarchs continue shattering CO2 records. I'm gonna fight em.

Bonaroodoodoopalooza: Part II
I’m the freshest spiral galaxy in this quadrant. I’m clouded in purple gases, I sparkle with newborn stars, and a pulsar at my heart flashes in time to the rhythm of the cosmos. The only problem is I have no one to talk to. I’m amazingly lonely.
