DANNY'S BIRTHDAY The phone rings. It is Christa, my friend Danny's wife, "Hi Frank...Danny has just left to pick you up." "OK Christa, Starr has the rental car and should get to you within the hour. I gave her some extra money so the two of you can run into Louisville, get some new clothes and the toys we will need. See you there." The plan was working...
(Not a stroke story - unless your mom's reading it to you.) Troy didn't look like a troll in the traditional sense of the word, but he didn't look like an ordinary nineteen year-old either. His rounded shoulders, girlie thighs, and pot belly belied a physique born not from living under a bridge, but from surfing the internet every waking minute of the day....
HARLEM, USA Although Harlem is but a few thousand yards from some of the wealthiest families in the country, most do not cross 110th street, for that means coming face to face with the ugly realities of life. On a hot summer's day, like today, fire plugs are turned on full blast. Children from the neighborhood run around soaked, doing their best to remain...
I've always enjoyed making puns. To me, they symbolize a quick mind, able to look at things from many different perspectives. I had no idea that this enjoyment would lead to my 'pun'ishment. It started the day my car's headlight burned out. With no idea where to go to get it fixed, I asked my friend, Paget. She recommended a place, so I drove my car over t...
"This is a deer camp?" Shawna Miller stood in the entry of the cabin, her eyes wide, "It looks more like a log-built resort!"

Note: This character is an offshoot of the series 'The life of Desiree' and introduced in Chapter 2. This one is a little darker than my other stuff but not so bad. I have trouble with my protagonists always wanting to embody the best of us. This one is a little different. Enjoy. Chapter 1 -- Jenna tells the story her first mission. My name is Jenna. I a...
The end of the story. I part from these characters with real regret. It's been an experience for which I am endlessly grateful, most of all to Grandmaster dweaver999, il miglior fabbro, for creating these people and this world, and letting me into it; to Laurel and Manu for giving me the opportunity and the place to tell this story; and to my fellow authors,...
Back a few years ago when I was a younger man in the service. I was stationed in the Midwest very near a college town. Now at this time we were involved in something called the Vietnam War and if you were in the active service and near a college town you would not think to get lucky in any way shape or form.

First I would like to say HELLLOOOO, it has been awhile yes I know. I have been very busy which had not helped my writers block. It had been so long I had to reread my stories and I have got to say my grammar still sucked. Ah well if you can't make fun of yourself who can you make fun of right?
