It was a Sunday afternoon in May. I had spent the whole weekend outside in the sun, enjoying the warm weather. Excitement buzzed in my house all weekend. My brothers friend Josh was home from North Carolina and he was coming over to spend the night with us before he had to go back. It was about 5pm when I saw him walk down the hall passed my bedroom. I was...
AUTHOR'S NOTE: The following is NOT a story. It is a SCENE from a marriage and part of a longer story that may or may not ever be written. Consider it an addendum to the recent "Ghosts and Shadows" short novel. Readers of that story may have noted how the lives of Robert Sandler and Gail Hunt eerily paralleled the lives of Hugh and Mary Davidson. Like the ol...
It was generally regarded that the joint US-Soviet lunar landing marked the beginning of the end of the Cold War. Technologies on both sides of the iron curtain were utilized for space without restriction by the start of the 1970s.

Today was the last day before classes start tomorrow and you were feeling quite nervous. You were all alone in your dorm room curled up under the covers keeping nice and toasty.

He held the pumpkin up and smiled. He liked the way the smoke seeped out through the carved out facial features of the gourd. Placing it back down at his feet, he...
"That's her right? The Ice Queen?" "Yeah... I heard she pushed some poor girl down the stairs on her first day just because she didn't like her expense! It was for staples!" "Oh yeah, I heard she tried to sleep with Grayson and when he said no, she stripped down in his office. I can't believe he's still so nice to her! He must be an angel." "I heard sh...
You come home from work. I greet you at the door with a tumbler of something strong, just what you wanted after a long stressful day at work. Your eyes travel up and down my body, taking in each detail from head to toe. My hair, a halo of soft brown curls. My makeup, dark smokey eyes under my cat eye glasses and plump red glossy kissable lips. Around my neck...
Last night we had stayed out late playing cards. We had gotten back to the cabin very late, for some passionate lovemaking on that canopied four-poster you love so much. Then we had fallen asleep in each others arms. Me still not being sure I’ve forgiven you for beating me at my game, you not sure I haven’t let you win. The smell of sex and ours sleep engu...
Watching the leaves tumble slowly, softly, silently to the ground, of course I thought of her. I thought of her beside me, snuggled into the hood of her jacket, pretending not to be cold.
