The germ of the idea for this began when I read a story by another author on Lit that was set at Burning Man. Having been to over five Burns, to me that story felt more like someone writing about rumors and hearsay. Admittedly, everyone experiences Burning Man in a different way, so maybe that was somebody's. If so, I'm glad it wasn't mine or I wouldn't have...
***** This is one of the kind of chapter that I usually dread writing. You get a bunch of relative strangers together in something where there are things going on and you need to find a way to get things said and out of the way. This time, I just gave in to the notion that things don't happen with any synchronicity between a lot of folks concurrently. Ther...
Agent Solo stepped out of a black town car as it pulled up in front of my building. As I stepped outside, Solo grabbed me and pulled me into the lobby, away from the cars view. "What the fuck?" "I'm sorry, I know you don't believe me but I swear I didn't mean for this to happen this way." I tried crossing my arms while I held my bag in my left hand, still...
BETH The soft sound of the alarm in my mobile phone at the bedside table woke me up. It was six AM, and I was feeling like hell. I was hurting bad and my throat seemed to be on fire, I felt that it was closed and I couldn't swallow even my own saliva; I felt feverish and each and every joint in my body was as if it had its own life, such was the intense pai...

Mother smiled. 'I might have to drag him out by the ear.' The nurse had a put-upon air about her now, doubtless thanks to Alex. Heather followed her through a...

For anyone who missed (or has totally forgotten) the first three parts, here is a brief résumé. ***** Mary Rose is twenty-nine with the face of a mischievous schoolgirl, jade green eyes, auburn hair and a body to die for. Although her high-flying career as a...
* * Charlotte * * Finally, we were on a plane and on our way. We would meet the girls tomorrow for lunch. It had been frighteningly hectic for both of us; more school and sports for Sheri. We took every chance possible for dinners and nights; neither of us was happy (or satisfied) with what our schedules allowed. Sheri had moved more of her things in. That...

Charlie was a character who was in parts two and three of Seducing Zoe and in part three she attempted to seduce Zoe with disastrous results. I've decided to do a separate stand alone story about Charlie and another woman, Casey. To make it slightly more realistic I've brought the timeline forward by six months for Charlie. Charlie sucked hard on a cigarett...
