Visiting the Iconic Storms River Bridge at Tsitsikamma Petroport Station, South Africa

It was a cold and miserable day. It was a day that you just wanted to take a book and curl up in bed. But we were out and about, because we were travelling, and some bad weather would not bother us. Close

Three Ales from Tsitsikamma Brewery for #BeerSaturday
After visiting the Tsitsikamma brewery, I had to try their other beers. I bought three of their beers, a normal ale, dark ale, and a grapefruit ale. These were three vastly different beers, and I had to

Famished by Anna Vaught - A Short Story Collection of Food and Horror | A FermentedReview
It is funny (and scary) how quick we become desensitized to the macabre, abject, and strange. Before this moment of desensitization, the slightest trace of horror might upset one. But after the moment

Overwhelmed by the Amount of Words ...
I have dreamt about being a published author. I have dreamt about being a writer. These have always driven me to write, to produce words, images, concepts, and dreamworlds. From an early age, I have always

A Short Stay in Hell by Steven L. Peck | A Fermented Book Review
