It was three years since Sophie and Bob's wedding day. They had been going out for 4 years prior to that so they knew each other very well before they committed to married life. They were both very committed to their careers and they earnt a lot between them so they had decided to put thoughts of a family on hold until they were married. Sophie had experienc...
Silvia Keenan was normally a woman who exuded confidence, but in her fifty-seven years, she had never come close to committing a crime before. As she walked through the doors of the Commerce Bank and Trust, she was sure that everyone would see how nervous she was, and certainly she would be stopped and arrested. The safety deposit boxes were across the large...
"All rise," the portly man announced. The entire audience stood up. "His honorable Judge Sven Carlsdotter presiding this day the 17th of July in Stockholm District Court. This hearing of the state versus Dr. Christiana Swensen is now in session." The judge abruptly entered from a door that stood directly behind the bench and sat down without once looking...
Let me know what you think. I'm a 'comment whore'. ;-) * In their clan house, Gunnar Rolfsson leered at his oldest sister. "So, Mia, are you attending the Mid-Summer Fest this year, again?" Mia sniffed. "Only as a spectator. I think six children is quite enough, thank-you very much. Now that I'm a grandmother, it's time to turn reproduction over to the ne...
I receive many comments on the length of my tales. Equally split criticism of being too short or too long. I thought I'd explain my highly complex system of deciding length. I begin with what I want to say. I start writing. When I've said everything I want to say, I write, 'the end'. Any questions? This one is relatively long (28 'Word' pages). About the on...
Talia's POV I was practically shaking, the idea that someone I trusted had betrayed us had my wolf prowling in my mind. I pulled out my phone and dialed. "Uncle Clark, there's a problem," I said. I told him what had been reported to me about the behavior of the Copper Creek pack, leaving out who told me and why they were watching. "Alpha Justin Heranus and...
Dr. Emeril Cox sat at his desk, watching Linda Foster, waiting for her response to his long description of his group fertility procedure. He'd delivered this speech so many times, each time altering it for his audience. In this instance he hadn't even been entirely sure about offering this technique to Mrs. Foster. He felt he was a good judge of character an...

Okay, in this chapter we meet Alza's cat, and things get interesting. Most of the basic everyday details have been given, so it will start sounding less formulaic and more like a story. I love feedback, but if you have issues with how things are in the story, just bear with me, and I will see what I can do to fix it. Enjoy! In the morning, around 10ish...
Widder Jones was 31 years old. I was the only one to know for sure because I'm her doctor. I also knew a lot of other things about her after her office visit today. My name is Kendall and I am a rural circuit doctor in the Ozarks. My medical school education was mostly funded by a program that requires me to serve rural areas for a period of time after I gr...
