Walt Curran was home on leave after serving two years in Naples, Italy. He had gone right into the Marines after high school and reported to Parris Island for boot camp. Three months of that and one month of ITR and he was off to Italy. It was December 1961 at Christmas time so he had taken ten days leave before reporting to Camp Lejeune in North Carolina. H...
Episode 1: The traveler and the hunter The land Malvinor is dry and mostly covered with rocky lands and deserts. But in the north, where the wide meandering Daryn demarcate the border with the Elven Kingdom, lie vast forests. A stranger had made his camp in an open spot in the forest on a hill overlooking a wide bend of the giant river. Near the delta the D...
I rushed through the flap of the large tent with my two best friends in the world. We were happy as fuck. Outside, all around us, explosive colors and nighttime musical dreamscapes filled the sky and the air and the bloodstream. We were fully into our second night at Burning Man, my first time, though the fourth for my best friends. We were rolling on...
Warren Savage only visited the Hayden saloon and required Cal's services one more time during Cal's temporary work there. He was a bit more demanding and rough on the repeat than the first time, and Cal sensed that this was something that would build in intensity until something gave—probably Cal's life.

I wasn't very happy. My boss made me take a vacation because I hadn't taken one in years. Ever since I divorced my wife, I simply drowned myself with work. I didn't want to date or even look at another woman. I was just so damn heart broken. Heather was perfect to me. I guess she didn't feel that way about me since she had an affair with her old crush from h...
I had grown up with Daniel, a close friend of mine, not even a year younger than I. (I was 18). We had went to movies together, played football together, done everything together, but not once had I ever thought of him as more than a friend. Our mothers had decided that year to send us both to summer camp, as my mother was having marital problems and neede...
Chapter 9 -- Ryan's Story -- The escape For several weeks Ryan would see Shultz regularly. They would always meet in the shower block and end up having wild passionate sex. Some nights Arthur and Geoff would be there and end up in a foursome. If Ryan thought that Tommy was passionate then Shultz was more so but it didn't make up for the fact it wasn't Tommy...
I used to keep journals, when I was a kid, but I stopped for a while. I never really liked it, I guess. I'm pretty sure my mom was reading it anyway, so it wasn't really a good place for my deepest, darkest secrets.
