I loved working with the...
It was ten after three in the afternoon on a totally fucked up day in June. David Stone wasn't supposed to be home until five thirty at the earliest, but he had been laid off from his job of ten years. He had come back from a lunch meeting to find a note on his desk that the boss wanted to see him To make a long story short, sales were down and someone had...

"They will allow it over my dead body!" The ferocity of Beau LaConte's angry declaration, accompanied by flailing of arms that set the carriage to wobbling, made me take fright. The LaContes had been our Mississippi delta neighbors for more than a century, but I should have known better than accept his offer for transport to the Hallow's Eve masked ball at...

I went to the game with a neighbor of hers and we bumped into her there. Her name was Rita she was there with a bunch of kids, some I knew but most I just knew of....

They had been so nice to Nora when she moved in, shortly after the death of her husband, Alan's dad. Jim was a retired banker who married late in life. He was in his late 70's now, while Sally was in her early...
Thanks for reading. There were some things that he loved about having his own place; No conversation being made just for the sake of conversation, no kitchy art in the kitchen that said "Live, Laugh, Love", and the whole house didn't smell like some damn candle warmer. There was no one nagging him if he had a crappy day at work and just wanted to sit and pl...
I am sitting here in my cell awaiting the guards to take me down the long corridor to my execution by lethal injection. It seems that I couldn't convince a jury of twelve of my peers that I was justified in killing four people on July 4th five years ago. I've had my last meal and the padre has already blessed my soul and prayed for me. But I really don't giv...
