"Politics find common thread everywhere," Mustafa Machar said to himself, as he languished in his little cell, awaiting his execution. In a few hours, the sun would rise, and for the first time in centuries, he would be there to greet it. It would be the very last thing he ever saw, for the light was lethal to his kind. Can't escape genetics, Mustafa thought...
Avalon has never underestimated the humans' lust for advancement. They pursuit technology and knowledge blindly without caring who they hurt in the process. Fortunately, he is not one of them. He is from another world, another time. His species is often looked upon as the most advanced in the galaxy, the pinnacle of organic life. Their, and his, intelligence...
I was slogging my way through grad school with no real goal in mind. Most of my friends were trying to line up internships for the summer or some form of "meaningful" employment. I was not so inclined. Instead I took a job as a bike messenger. OK, with the Internet and overnight delivery services this was a career headed for extinction. My job as a bike me...

My name is Kal and I was once known as Hercules, the God of Strength among the deities of the ancient Greek Pantheon. Anyone looking at me would see a tall, good-looking man with light bronze skin and pale green eyes in his early twenties. I currently inhabit the body of a former devotee of mine. Jared Floyd, a young man with amazing talents who hails from...
I have always had a love of cats, especially Tigers and other "Big Cats." I am an attractive 25 year old woman with tanned olive skin, standing about 5' 11" with long legs and a well toned body. I have perfectly sized breasts, a flat stomach and a tight arse. I am currently going out with a biological scientist, I don't really understand exactly what he does...
"The American oligarchy spares no pains in promoting the belief that it does not exist. But the success of its disappearing act depends on equally strenuous efforts on the part of an American public anxious to believe in egalitarian fictions, and unwilling to see what is hidden in plain sight." ― Michael Lind Numbers Guys: definition: "Teetering on the pr...
** This is an idea I had for a serial story that takes place in a future where men are ruined and women dominate the Earth. If there is interest I may continue the story. Hope you enjoy. ***** It started as a treatment, though an accidental one at that. Much like Viagra was designed for heart medication and the other effects were only discovered during tes...
