THE BEGINNING This is the first story in an experiment involving two storytellers, daughter and mother. A Tale of Two Mothers is Tess's account of being raised by two mothers and ends with Tess meeting her partner, Karin. Her mother also has a story to tell and so to spice things up I've decided to do The Courtship of Rachel in parallel. First we have a cha...
A FUNERAL AND A WEDDING In the previous story, Tess tells of the events leading up to the breakup of her parents and introduces us to Birgit. In this story she tells us more of the secret affair between her mother and Birgit, as well as the dramatic effects of her father's death. This is part two of A Tale of Two Mothers.

All characters are fictitious, over eighteen and all sex is consensual. I look forward to reading any comments. A car pulled out of a parking spot at the perfect time right outside the door....

For those who do not know about the mone...
