Is it possible to write a story in 750 words? Fuck, yeah! Is it possible such a story will be any good? That is entirely for you to decide and me to find out. * * An arrowhead of birds soars high in the cold, grey sky, as if pointing a way out of this prison. My gaze shifts from the skylight to the solitary picture hanging on my wall. At times like these,...
Her name was Eve. Now she wasn't a fox by any means but she had a body that could stop time. Her legs were full and sculpted and her breasts were voluptuous without being outrageous. She carried that sweet round ass high and it was the first thing you noticed about her. She exuded sexiness and propagated unadulterated sensuality. She wore her hair very short...
They had sat at the far corner table so many times before, when egg creams still were on the menu. Their weekly conversations had seeped so deeply into the cushions of the tangerine banquet seats that the waiters knew when to surprise them with monogrammed anniversary cheesecake slices. Back then, it was Sinatra piping through the speakers in the ballroom di...
Love and Sex in the Time of the Coronavirus Spring 2020 "It is not a lack of love that drives most marriages apart, but a lack of trust." - Felix Francis in "Triple Crown," 2016 # "Paul, what the fuck is going on?" My wife rarely used profanities before the epidemic. A month of working daily fourteen-hour shifts as a nurse had strained even her Chri...
(Saturday night, Las Vegas strip) I've only been to Vegas twice - once last weekend and once right now. The first time, I didn't even want to go, only going to shut up my best friend Chaz, who's more than a little reckless. He set up a bachelor party under the guise of going to Cleveland to misdirect my fiancee Marilyn, who would have been a little bit nerv...
The two-story house was typical to most houses in Southern California, covered in stucco with a few areas of fake looking stone to make it look slightly different than the neighbors. I stepped onto the front porch and knocked on the front door. No one answered right away but I could hear music and laughter inside so I knew they were here: They being my oldes...
Madison and I met as freshmen while registering for classes at the university. We said "Hello" whenever seeing each other on campus and had a few classes together but never dated. Madison was so attractive and never without a boyfriend. Yes, she is blond with the face of an angel and properly proportioned curves. It just didn't seem possible for me to be one...
Athena is an experienced woman. Experienced women know things, so she knows the more she knows the more complicated things become. Her relationship with the mysterious man sitting on the couch behind her is a case in point and nodding to her likeness in the mirror, and as if carrying on an exchange with someone other than herself, she silently insists it is...
Thursday August 14th started like any other day. My morning commute to work was uneventful, and the day itself was slow. My job as a financial analyst in mid-town Manhattan keeps me pretty busy, arriving early and usually leaving late. Most days I do not get to leave until 7:00 pm or so, but this day turned out differently. At 4:10 PM on this hot and sunny...
"What's on your mind?" she whispered, turning her head just enough so that she could look at me in the dimly lit Brooklyn bar. She said it in a slow, dreamy way and I watched the words as they left her lips and found their way to me through the music. We'd drifted close enough together that our legs were touching and the colors in the room swam a little as I...
