Looking toward another long, uneventful weekend in this Middle Eastern country, I decided to spend several hours in the desert tranquility. Hiking and catching up on some reading seemed the perfect answer to pass the time of day. Because it was never wise to venture into the desert by oneself, one of the Filipino workers volunteered to accompany me. Pulling...
Chapter 13: Trapped "Uuuuggghhhh..." Adam groaned as he stirred. His throat feels so scratched up, and he has a horrible salty taste in his mouth. His head is spinning like he just woke up from a horrible hangover. He coughed as he tried spitting out the salty taste; it's like the whole inside of his mouth is caked in with salt! He can hear...

The first week went by quick. On Monday I had my first day in school. Not many kids in the school mind you. Barely about four hundred I think. I saw William on my third class that day. "Hey bro! How's it going?" He smiled and stretched his hand out towards me. Wearing a jean and blue t-shirt. "Great man! Wondered when I would walk into you?" I said as I...

I heard his voice booming across the swimming pool. Moments later he was holding out his hand and welcoming me. My hand was almost lost in his meaty paw. My friend Paul had taken me to a pool party being hosted by Stavros. This tanned, jovial Cypriot bear had a reputation for having a big heart.

I was staring out my office window at the worst blizzard in New York history when the phone rang. I answered the ring and recognized the voice on the other end. Eric was calling from his house in the Keys. Eric is a successful advertising executive with a house in Key Largo, a condo in New York, and offices in New York and Miami. In addition, Eric is an a...
My name is Josh. I was eighteen, just graduated from high school and eager to move on with the next step in life. I couldn't wait to get to college and really find out who I was as a person and find my sexuality.
