I'm going to be making some changes to my Red Canary Stories blog. I've created a separate blog for my Polaroid photography because I felt like they're overshadowing the content on this page. I've been getting more and more serious with my photography and have decided these two mediums need to be separate. Transferring the existing posts from this blog to the other one is going to be such a pain, but I think this decision will be for the best. Stay tuned!

The Girl in the Wych Elm: Part Three

  3. The Men in the High Tower Alexander chuckled with amusement as he waited for Solomon and his entourage to arrive. The Mayor of Wych Elm had called a meeting with the Silver Hightowers. Alexander wondered if his ancestor, Barnabas Hightower (the first patriarch of the Crimson branch), was turning over in his grave. “I’ll probably see the old bastard in my mirror tonight.” He laughed as he played with the engraved lighter in his hand. The twin Hightower families had always despised one another. So, it was bizarre that Alexander would invite their long-time nemeses to Old Cahawba for an in-person meeting. Many of the lower ranked Crimson Hightowers were against the decision, not that their opinions mattered to Alexander. He was their family head, their patriarch . There was no democracy under his roof. “Mr. Hightower,” a maid poked her head through the door, “Judge Solomon Hightower and company have arrived.” Alexander motioned for the maid to let them through. “Yes sir.” T...

  10. The Fractured Table.  The Lightwood and Goodman families often alienated themselves from the other three High Families. They had grown exhausted with the Hightowers’ constant fighting and clawing at each other’s throats. While the DeSanguis family aligned themselves with the Crimson Hightowers, the Lightwoods and Goodman refused to pick a side. They remained neutral. Unfortunately, their neutrality didn’t come without consequences. The two families were often left out of important matters and the last ones informed. Over time, Lucia Lightwood and Donovan Goodman formed a close bond which they found comical. Science/medicine and religion had historically always been at odds. “Your incision is healing well, Lucia.” Donovan tossed away his gloves and stepped over to the sink. “I’m guessing Lucilla’s still in the dark, yes?” He asked, washing his hands. Donovan then plopped down on the stool to write a progress note in Lucia’s chart. “She’s going to have anot...

  1. The Body, the Tree, & the Conspiracy There’s an old regional saying, “The road to damnation lies between two Towers.” Proverbs aren’t just timeless sayings; they’re statements that express common truths or give advice As the hour of Cecilia’s death drew closer, the old, disease afflicted woman began to cackle hysterically. Evie, Cecilia's granddaughter and long-time caretaker, was taken aback with trepidation. She was surprised, and sort of relieved, to see her ailing grandmother in such a lively mood. The last few weeks leading up to that moment had been rough. Cecilia had stopped eating and didn't say or interact much. Evie was certain her grandmother's time in the Mortal plane was almost up. "My dear, Evie, do you hear that?" Cecilia raised a frail hand to her ear. Evie looked at the dying woman with bemusement. "No... No, I don't hear anything, grandmother." All the young woman heard were the caws and chatters of the Nighthawks...
