*** Authors Note: Part 8 obviously picks up where Part 7 left off. While I make the suggestion to read from the beginning, a couple of refresher notes: Characters previously introduced: Phil - Main protagonist. Wealthy 40-something white male who reshaped his entire life following a workplace accident. Has had a lifelong tendency to act rather impulsively,...
Chapter 12 was roundly criticized by readers, so taking their comments to heart, I have rewritten the final chapter entirely, letting Steve tell the story. I've used no editor in this project -- it started as a solo effort and remains so and all errors are mine and mine alone. All participants are over the age of eighteen. This is a story of fiction and any...
It was almost spring thaw. Preparations were chaotic. Early on it was discovered that many of the plants would not flower for two or three years. Priorities have altered, the children's park had to be shifted from SHU's prevue. Another school was added just to oversee what changes, additions and modifications that would be needed. Thank goodness for the chil...
Hello again! I hope everyone is doing well during these troubling times. Just a very quick foreword: This is the second to last chapter of Sekhemkhet. It's unlikely that the next chapter will include any erotic scenes; it's just something to round out the story and give you a bit of closure. So, get your kicks while you can ;) As always, please leave a com...
Other People's Problems "So, I'm balls deep and just as I let loose there's this loud crashing noise, right? I hear the noise, but I'm not paying any attention. You know how it is, just as you're getting your nut? Nope, nothing's getting through to my brain. The door bursts open, and there he is, and the kid is seriously pissed." The cop looked at the nur...

Hi there. Welcome back once again. This is the last planned story in the Conversations series, and once again, I've tried to put a new spin on that devastating discourse between spouses; here looking at the question of trust. Trust is a vital part of every relationship. It's one of the three legs of the stool that is marriage - take one away, and it topples....
*I have been asked a very good question: if men are so rare and valuable, why aren't they treated better? One reader provided the best answer. In the American West in the last half of the 19th century, in many areas men outnumbered women 10:1. Women enjoyed protection because of their rarity, but they had no control over that protection. The gained no excess...
I hope readers who have not followed this series will find this entertaining - but of course I recommend reading the backstory. Comments are much appreciated. * Our lives had been strange over the last year. Penny and I had gone from a very conservative and straightforward (although pleasant and satisfying) sex life through a period of swinging and swappi...
I know of no vetted statistical information on it, but my belief based upon empirical evidence is that the majority of marriages, even among people who truly are in love, go stale after a while. When they go stale depends upon the people, especially their goals, what they are exposed to in the media and daily life, and their upbringing. After twenty years of...
