I'm one of those people that is afraid of life, afraid of other people. Shy as a kid, painfully shy. No girlfriends until mid-20's, then married my first one. Thirty years later, after endless work on myself, endless therapy, workshops, challenges and successes, children, a divorce, and a passionate love affair that ended with her leaving, I finally felt no...
**Authors Note - Hey. Feedback is welcomed and can always message me :) Enjoy** I had been planning to go to the summer resort location of Julia-Ann Springs for some time now. A bit of relaxation. A bit of 'me' time. Just what I needed from serving spoilt children and teenagers in the toy shop I work at, day in and day out. Julia-Ann Springs resort was o...
It is a cool, clear September morning when Tricia arrives at the cabin. The sun has well risen but the chill off the lake defeats most of its warmth. Picturesque, is the first word that comes to her mind. The cabin, the lake, the fall colours on the surrounding trees, all of it together makes it look so appealing. She feels that she has arrived in paradise,...
As the horde of Amazons came crashing through the gates of Atlantis, Agaue knew his life would never be the same. He realized his great city full of beauty and dedicated to science, not war craft, could not resist the women warriors for long. Agaue had also heard the legends of how Amazon women took no male prisoners and of how they dispensed them by cutting...
Nothing I love more than to spend some time at home, folks. Enjoying a quiet day in my mansion on Brockton's West Side. It's one of the things I enjoy the most. You see, the world makes sense once again. My name is Shavona Lavonne. A six-foot-tall, short-haired and bronze-eyed Black woman born and raised in New England. I attend Wellesley College. I am an em...
The atmosphere was oddly conflicted as they packed up their holiday clothes to get ready to go home. There was happiness, at having had such a great time on Oceanus, and sadness, at finally having to leave. As was always the case for a vacation, they had brought far more clothes than they had actually ended up wearing, but considering that the girls were eit...
1. JASON. The Windowless Building sits in the grassy valley below our house, at the edge of the woods, on a tract of land that is leased out to a local rancher. The woods cover the hills at the edges of the valley, old-growth gnarled oaks with thick, twisting branches from which moss dangled and under which thick green miners lettuce and lush grass grew. Fr...
"We'll sleep for two years?" Brandon Pace, the eager intern, couldn't hide his apprehension before his first interstellar flight. The crisp, white body suit enhanced his lithe and boyish frame that seemed far too young to be frozen in time. "You won't notice it. You'll be asleep. It'll feel like a good night's rest, only when you wake up, we'll be at Proxim...
*Author's Note: Two things: One: I recently broke down and bought a new car. The guy who sold it to me mentioned he was in his mid-40s and his wife in her early 20s. He showed me a few pics and she was a very attractive young woman! I didn't mention my May-December love stories or my own personal experiences, but I did actually meet a real couple separated...
-XII- "Next, please." came Valentine's voice, as she sat in the operating theatre alongside her friends. She had her special book open in her lap, with a plethora of notes begun. On the left side, she had a list of characters with space to write their eventual portrayer alongside. Only three names were listed. Her own, Blackmore's, and Annie's. Though Annie...
