I sensed it. She wants to go out, to Nino's for Mexican food and drinks. We haven't been in months so I was surprised when she told me. She asks me to fix her a drink so I make us both Margaritas. As she dresses she goes out on the deck to smoke a cigarette, but when she comes to finish her beauty ritual I smell a hint of the hemp. By the time she is ready,...
Thank you to my editor Ditee. ** Sam looked at the caller ID on her cell, then pressed ignore and put it back in her bag. That was the third time Blake had called while Sam was out shopping with Maggie. "So are you going to tell me what the hell happened with you and Blake?" Maggie knew something was up, Sam always answered her phone for Blake, even if i...

Prologue The Reverend Jackson Wilde had been shot in the head, heart and testicles. Right off, Cyrus figured that that was a significant clue. Whoever wanted the Reverend dead certainly did not stop at just emasculating him: Blood was splattered all over the sink and cabinets; collecting in a pool of blood underneath the body.

The cavern was dimly lit and in its centre was a stone well, and stood next to it was a werewolf. Lyara should have been alarmed, but there was something familiar about the beast's eyes. "I hope you recognise Aela, even in this form," Skjor said. "She h...

In time -- seven more years, to be precise -- she knew her place in this odd new family, the Wilkinson family. Her nearest sibling, in age, anyway, was a boisterous jock named Elizabeth. Liz rode horses and rowed crew, an unheard of predisposition in 1919, and she was big-boned and coarse-humored, too. Liz had started college the year before, at Penn, and sn...

Note: My wife and I traveled south for the holidays to attend a football bowl game. We arrived the day before New Year's Eve, and attended the game on New Year's Day. We had excellent seats around the 35 yard line and got there about two hours before game time to enjoy the sights and sound of a bowl game. About one hour before kickoff, six folks dressed in t...
Show And Tell 2: Gone Bananas There were a couple of bananas on the table when I got home from school. Everything seemed quiet in the house so I thought my step-sister Maryanne was still in school. Rummaging through the ref, I couldn't seem to find anything I liked. So I went back to the table, grabbed the bananas and headed for the TV. There really wasn't...
