The Wraith

The Wraith are a vampiric hive-based species that harvest the 'life-force' of other humanoid beings for nourishment through suckers on their palms. Countless worlds in the Pegasus galaxy live in constant fear of the Wraith, who return periodically to cull their human herds.

"The Wraith allow our kind to grow in numbers, and when that number reaches a certain point they return to cull their human herd. Sometimes a few hundred years will pass before they awaken again. We've visited many, many worlds -- I know of none untouched by the Wraith."

I was signing cheques last night for all my bills and got a terrible writer's cramp.

All my cheques came back NSF. I guess my account has writer's cramp.

Writer's Regret

This is the feeling a writer gets when finding mistakes and typos in their old works. This feeling is especially strong if the pieces were published.

Anna had a case of writer's regret when she was re-reading her old newspaper articles.
