FEATURING:
Every Heart Has a Limited Amount of Heartbeats by Martin Johnson ( Serendipity , 2015)
We will all die, and those who are already dead slowly becomes faint memories, that can be awakened, and relived.
I Blinked and I Was 30 by Andrea Silenzi ( Serendipity , 2015)
On Andrea's 30th birthday, the universe gave her an impossible assignment. Could she use that day to come to terms with everything she’d done before, and everything she’d hope to do now?
