Interlude: Molo The third night after Kal wakes up The monster girls drew straws to see who would join Kal for the night resulting in the frog girl, Molo, winning. Afterward, they continued drawing straws as Oona noted who won and made up a list to set up a rotation for the rest of them. Kal didn't see any of this. As soon as Molo was declared the winner,...
It'd been one of those really, truly, horribly, awful days. I was rewarding myself with a bottle of sweet Riesling and a romcom. I'd considered printing out a picture of Keith and throwing knives at it, but I didn't want to ruin the walls. I uncorked the bottle and flopped onto the couch, remote in one hand, wine in the other. The previews for the movie s...
The bulk of the actual fable is taken directly from the Grimm brother's story. In olden times when wishing still helped one, there lived a king whose daughters were all beautiful, but the youngest was so beautiful that the sun itself, which has seen so much, was astonished whenever it shone in her face. Close by the king's castle lay a great dark forest,...

CHAPTER 1 Radio talkback host James Froggatt ran the 1:00 am to 5:00 am 'Sleepless in Orion Show' transmitted by an obscure radio station in Indiana, well north of Indianapolis. After finishing that shift on this day he understandably yawned his way through the early morning emergency meeting called by station manager Doug Hart. Personnel were asked to take...
I submitted a joke, but it was rejected. As a new writer and a man who doesn't read instructions, the minimum 750 word requirement was unknown to me. Being a long-time reader of the Loving Wives category, a satire has always had its appeal. The idea of a combination of the joke and the satire consumed my twisted mind. The original joke is quoted. Everythin...
The weather in Chicago sucks: the winters are cold and last too long, and the summers tend to get hot and stifling, but in between these extremes you get days in spring and fall when you can feel nature downshifting and changing gears and you feel yourself accelerating too, the seasons pushing you towards something new and exciting, somewhere you haven't bee...
Frogs get bored; even enchanted ones. In the beginning the costumes and princesses are fun, but enchantment after enchantment, well it just gets old. It's particularly frustrating if the frog is stuck with an enchantress who is not very bright. I mean the stories you have to endure as she reads to her "pets," it's simply nauseating. Just this morning she cam...
Hi everyone. I´m putting this story in the category "Mature". It is officially described as "spring meets autumn". Well, this story is more like "autumn meets winter" and if that grosses you out, you are hereby warned. Most of my stories are connected. Manfred is Dr Walrus, a minor character in "Mate", and Stella has a bit-part in "The Meaning of Life". Th...
