Sunset in the Mojave. Next to their battered Wagoneer, my friends Barry and Marta squat on their hams finishing the dinner dishes - scraping the remains of my notorious pineapple venison chili onto a sun-burnished rock. Tomorrow the ants will have a feast. Marta's friend Wendy, a woman I'd never met until this morning, kneels near our small fire a few yards...
Another boring morning in traffic court. One of the tickets I'd written--45 in a school zone--was being disputed. Plenty of cops don't show up for disputed tickets, but if I wrote a ticket it was for a reason, and I certainly wasn't going to let some metrosexual on a cell phone go 20 miles over the limit and then get away with it because I didn't feel like g...
Zerafina awoke to the sounds of hooves striking the cobbled road. She slowly raised her head off of the makeshift pillow that she had made from her satchel bag and looked around. The two strings of control that she had tied to the skyyrim with the lust spell guided her eyes to where they had stationed themselves. They had already dressed in their armored kil...
Hi there, As the title says this is the second chapter of this story, so if you're unfamiliar with the preceding chapter you might want to read that one first. I want to thank all the readers who took the time to rate/comment on the previous chapter. And a super special thanks to Sophie and Jamie, for their assiduous proofreading and editing. I hope you'...
Punky's Diary -- a Friend's Experiences, collected by Selbryth. April 13, 2007 More of the Paris thing... Charlie and me stayed in her luxurious apartment for almost a week after the show, basically fucking each other's brains out. And as the days went by, she seemed to get more and more comfortable being, well, herself I guess you'd have to say. She'd pa...
An hour later, I was drying my hair after taking a shower. Arden and John were waiting downstairs with my sister for us to explain what Shades were and I'm sure they wanted more information than that. I threw on a pair of yoga pants, tank top that showed off my stomach and an over-sized sweater that opened down the front. I continued to dry my hair as I walk...
Matt Nameless ate cereal when his wife Carol Coleman entered the room. He looked up & smiled to see her looking all-professional in a black skirt suit. "Looking good," he said. "Will it do, do you think?" she asked, straightening her black jacket. Her luxuriant blonde hair was short with left side bangs. He was shirtless & wore gray sweatpants. "Totall...
Vinnie gave me a heads up with a phone call. "Freddie, guess who is here?" "I have no idea, Vinnie. Who?" "C'mon, guess." "Britney Spears?" "Nope." Now, you have to understand that Vinnie sounds exactly like John Travolta when he played Vinnie Barbarino, which is what we nicked named Vinnie after watching Welcome Back Kotter reruns when we were kids....
She is the least appealing girl I know, not that she's ugly or anything, she's just ... sour-looking, that's the only word for her, sour — she appears sour about everything, not that I know her very well, even though she's been around for most of my life. She has this small round mouth that she always puckers and purses like you do when you're tut-tutting or...
Savann looked like a smaller version of Earth. There was a mix of browns and greens with a couple of decent sized blue areas and sections of white clouds. Laruun summarized her planet, "After watching Earth videos for the past 10 years, Savann is an animal planet, with thousands of species of animals, but only 6 that are civilized. There was the feline spe...
