Tessa said the next issue will feature men in (and out) of...
Wil stared up at the grey building that loomed over him. He'd parked his car down the street and walked to find the address, since the road had a crater-sized hole in it. It looked like some roadwork had been abandoned in this area. Now that he looked around at the other buildings, it didn't look like anyone lived here -- at least not anymore. He looked at t...
The subject line of your email read simply "An Invitation." I knew it would be something good. No matter what we had done together, I'd always had a great time with you.

I was in the cockpit of my boat, doing chores. I sensed someone on the dock and looked up. A small figure was looking down at me with a tentative smile. "Hi, I'm your new crew. Brian sent me." She was about five-six, slender, with dark hair and a very direct gaze. Hardly anyone except Brian, who had been stolen from me by a wealthy Swedish yacht captain,...

Rain splattered against Alex's window looking out of his sixth floor office. It is weather typical of Portland and irked him to no end.
