I stared at the text message on my phone as my son played alone in the sandbox. 'Having a wonderful time. Thank you for everything,' it read. Innocuous enough if anyone read it, but like an onion there were dozens of hidden layers. The simple truth was that my friend was thanking me for saving her marriage. That's right, without a degree, without any experie...
Infidelity Anonymous 05: Women's Night This is the fifth installment in a series of stories about a fictitious organization designed along the lines of Alcoholics Anonymous where people who have cheated on their spouses, and the spouses they cheated on, can both find support and forgiveness as they work to rebuild their lives. There may well be an organizat...
Joshua stretched, pushing the sheets off his body. He shook himself awake as he smirked thinking of his adventure the previous night. He spoke out loud, "You are a damn stud!!" Then hopped out of bed. He started the shower just as there was a knock at his door. "Who the hell is that." he muttered to himself. He wrapped a towel around his waist and opened...
Many thanks to Dennis for editing this story I'm Dan Nilsson, married to Isabell and living in a Scandinavian town with our two kids, who were out playing with their friends when my wife asked me to sit down at the kitchen table and listen to some important news.

After I got home from McDonald's parking lot, I could taste Miko and smell him all over me. I felt sexy and guilty and nervous about what I would do in my relationship now. I got home and looked around at our apartment, our pictures, our memories. My heart, which had moments before been so thrilled by Miko's attention, was now heavy with sadness as I remembe...
She looked at her finger. Just a plain white gold band. So small...and yet. Yet it dominated her life. Theirs had been a long courtship. It sounded so much better to say "long courtship" than to say that they had lived together for six years before finally getting married. She had wondered over and over again, during that six years, when he would finally g...
(Author's note: Another story based on the song of the same name by Blue Rodeo. This is a Flash story. I hope that the comments will be longer than the story :o I would suggest listening to the song as you read this. Hope you like it.) * "Hey, it's me what a big surprise calling you up from a restaurant called the Bend. Just got in from way up north, I'm...
Here's a short one I wrote yesterday. Sadly, I have like sixty stories unfinished, including endings to some multi-part series. I swear I'll get to them sometime. Thing is, I've been in development with a team who are bringing one of my works to life, and that's been keeping me busy. Some day soon, I hope to announce it where it is appropriate. Once again,...
The 9th Installment of Omega Pride! A few warnings. This chapter is extremely graphic compared to the previous ones, and some people may find the content disturbing and disagreeable to say in the least. Second, French has returned BIG TIME in this chapter. I have put up translations throughout the story, so I hope this helps a lot. Third warning (more like...
After finding our table, ordering our food and wine I asked: "Peter, when you said you would come alone, does that mean there are problems between you and Ellen?" "Yes, you can say that, we are divorced I am sorry to say." "Oh! I didn't know that, what happened?" "She cheated?" "Did she have an affair?" "No, it was a one time thing." "How did you find...
