I arrived in New York late. You name it, and it had gone wrong in LA. Late equipment, long lines at Security, not enough gate agents, limited visibility....all the usual excuses the airlines give when they can't do their fucking job! By the time I reached my hotel, it was almost midnight. I was tired and hungry (I refuse to eat airline food no matter what)...
'We are outlaws in the eyes of America' says Flexi Girl, 'always different' I am Tonguesmith. Created for pleasure. My mother was a hippie, who dropped a lot of lysergic acid. And other strange narcotics with mystical properties. The psilocybin William S Burroughs grail-quested through Amazonia to find, but could never discover. My father was the electri...
Chapter 10 Jake sped away. He wanted to get home before Bonnie and make it as though he had never left the house. When she arrived back, she greeted him with a beaming smile and a long, lovely kiss. "Wow," he replied in surprise. "I'm back, babe," she said, as if returning from a whole other universe. They went on kissing for several minutes. "How...
Introduction: Digby Goode was just an ordinary guy leading an ordinary life. He loved his wife and his son. He even loved his job as a private investigator, despite it being tedious at times.

(sequel to part one) The tentacle slipped in through her open bedroom window, and slowly pulled the sheet down and off of Topaz's sleeping form. Without waking her, it insinuated itself beneath her torso a few times, each time looping up over her without touching the front of her body. It then smoothly snugged its loops against her and lifted her up from he...

However, the Demon Queen of the Monster Girls has come up with a plan to crush humanity's resistance to her. She has created Six Monster Queens of Stink, and has sent them out into the world to enslave as many humans as they can. T...
***I don't suppose that you really NEED to, but if you don't follow my work, it might help to read "The Smoke-Girl & her Northern Ghost" for a bit of background on Gunnar. If it helps, this is set about 983AD. Louhi is the name of a powerful witch out of Finnish mythology, also known as the Mistress of the North. She is the inspiration for the protagonist'...
Dr. Rossum entered his classroom from the door near the electronic blackboard, which was really more of a huge pressure-sensitive multipurpose monitor and tablet. Those who grew up long ago might remember the dissonance from calling green slates affixed to walls "blackboards" rather than chalkboards. With chalk out of the equation, and any color available at...
The orchard appeared, dark and still. Jordan's first time through, following the capricious Helena, she had felt rushed and much, much safer. The trees around her were dark blue, offering shadows at best to help her identify anything that may have been lingering within the woods. She was grateful for subtly glowing pathways, but was having trouble remember...
Senior personal assistant Ella Rogers sighed and thought another **^?$#@ day at the office and this one could be as bad as it gets. She'd had four principals in five years, all female, and this one was a guy, who'd been due to arrive at the weekend from France. God a male shaving while yelling what files he wanted downloaded and picking his nose as he read...
