A lot of people don't approve of interspecies relations and I honestly think these bigots need to get over themselves, seriously! My name is Karen Elroy and I'm a young Black woman living in what's left of the City of Ottawa, Ontario. Three years ago, before the zombie outbreak, my life changed. I met this charming older Black gentleman who introduced himsel...
Grimacing with every step she took Thelema forced herself to keep walking, every inch of her body protested. She'd been running through most of the night, a fact she found incredibly surprising, but then the body can force itself to extreme levels in times of danger. It was adrenaline that had kept her moving throughout the night, adrenaline and fear and she...

Please read Chapter 1 of Helping Out a Neighbour before this as there is a number of links that make Chapter 2 make better sense. Hope you enjoy both stories. -- o O o -- Graham was so funny to watch over the next couple of days. He'd jump at the mere sound of either Alan or Jenny next door being in the yard, let alone talking to them. Jenny and I could on...
There was no pain—not at first. I remember the piercing white light and then the deafening sounds of metal and glass disintegrating. I felt the noise until a scream shattered my eardrums—my scream. Voices, then shards of light broke the darkness. The pain. It permeated every cell of my body. ***** That was then. Now nothing's the same. Life is different...
My brother is a defenseman in the NHL and we went to a game last month to watch him play. There was my mom, my dad, and my brother's girlfriend. It was exciting we were in the middle of the second period and the score was tied 3 all. My brother was coming out of the other teams end skating ahead of one of the other team's forwards when all of a sudden the ot...
Tim and I had been living selfish, self-centered lives for a long time. Yes, we had found sexual satisfaction and bliss in each other's arms, but what about the rest of the world? What about them? We looked around every day and saw bored, frustrated, unhappy men and women. We knew it was because they weren't getting off, but how could we help? After all, we...
When I reach the throne room (the twins at my heels), I can hear the voice of the Eldest before I even show up. That shrill, matronly tone isn't one I'll soon forget, so I take pause, lingering outside the entrance for a moment to hear what's being said. "We still can't trust her." The voice of the Eldest. I can only assume she's talking about me. "She's...
Maw rousted me out before the sun'd come up. She was all fired up to gets her cannin' in early 'cause it were gonna be a hot day. The two of us worked like beavers and finished a bit after noontime. Last for me to do was takin' the rinds and peels down to slop the hogs with. Them hogs was a lollin' round and keepin' cool in dirty water and mud. Everyone know...
I hate this rain, it seems to be never-ending. South Florida, the Sunshine state. Whoever came up with that one was a wee bit off. Granted, I would never move for anything. There is nothing like the freedom of our USUAL tropical weather. I rarely wear shoes, not to mention clothes. But here I sit with my securely closed convertible top the only thing keeping...
