Fraulein Dietz was inconsolable for days about the fire that had gutted the library, but no look of suspicion settled on Willie Froehlich. The cause was clear, she said. The electrical wiring in the building had not been renewed since it was installed at the turn of the century, and it was just one more reason why it was so important to have everything at Ra...
Author's Notes: Gang Aft Agley is a work of fiction, no characters or situations have any basis in known persons. The story continues the theme I generally use, that of a happily married couple wherein the wife attempts to add a lover to the family mix. In this story the couple has a girl child. Let me be very clear, the child is not involved in any way in a...
Chapter 4: Andrew's Story We had spent an evening of love and sex, Dee Dee and I. It was time for me to be off. We both have work in the morning. Oh, boy. Wonder what that's going to be like? She was lying partially under the cover, one arm thrown carelessly above her head, her eyes closed and a sensual, lazy smile on her face. I could see her semi-nude f...
After my lesson in being loved and told to take on the offers from the university, hands marched me down the hall and filled a duffel with stuff. Clemmie, Kim and Selma all had their signals straight. I was ordered into Selma's car, driven to her house and folded into her bed. I was awake just before the alarm went off in the dark at 5 am. Selma had my arm...
It began with a relatively innocent prank. It was as innocent as pranks between old friends go. Matt and Dave were lousy drinkers and just could not manage to keep up with me some times. I had come from an Irish family and had been drinking since I was 10 or 11 years old. A few tours in the army added to my tolerance to heavy drinking. Matt and Dave always d...
This story was inspired by a prompt I came across, as well as a Hallmark movie I saw once. Inspiration comes from all places, doesn't it? Randi, I appreciate all of the time and effort you have put into this day. Thank you for everything (including editing this for me). ***** But if there is any further injury, then you shall appoint as a penalty life for...
/ /Author's Note: This story, Terrible Company, is sprawling sword-and-sorcery fantasy satire with a diverse cast of characters. Over its many chapters, those characters will have interactions (both with each other and others) that cross many of the lines that exist between Lit genres. I have come to believe that breaking the story into those different categ...
This is part 2 of a story beginning with ‘Wife Got Caught’. It was written because both my fans requested it. I mention that to let them know neither of them is alone. It is always good to have safety in number. If you haven’t read ‘Wife Got Caught’, let me recommend it. I happen to think it is quite good. If you haven’t read it, please do so before going to...
Thanks to my editor, Nymphwriter, and my loyal beta readers who found my errors and made suggestions to improve my story. Any other errors you may find are mine alone. * * * It's said that opportunity only knocks once, and am I ever lucky I answered that knock. Looking back, though, my childhood wasn't all that lucky. Dad and mom both worked to provide eno...
It was definitely a typical Monday morning! Winifred Sommers just barely managed to catch herself before she sprawled across the New York City pavement. Freddie, as she preferred to be called, had been certain that the door to the "dinner only" restaurant, adjacent to the classy motel, would be locked. She hoped to jiggle the door enough to catch the attent...
