Note: There's no graphic sex here, folks, so if that's priority read no further. However, if you find compelling two would-be lovers, both married to other people, caught up in moral conflict, read on, because that's what this romance story is about. ***** Tim No, I wasn't surprised to learn that Addison Weil, a late wave baby-boomer, was married with gr...
(Chapter 18) "A Moment of Madness" (circa-1988) The six mile Metro journey to Newcastle was relaxing and uneventful. The train was packed with Monday morning commuters heading for their all too boring and familiar places of work. As usual everyone was wearing their trademark sour faces and no one offered a kind look or even a hint of a smile. Men reading...
It was four o'clock. Clock on the wall said, "That's all!" and Suzy was out the door. The day's tasks weighed on her brow heavily and she decided, quite out of character she would later snicker, to purchase a very necessary bottle of merlot on the way home. It was a four glass day. Jerry the $8.00 an hour CEO was more than his usual obnoxious ass. Four accou...
AUTHOR'S NOTES: This is a departure for me, a soft sensitive narrative. It is not dark and dangerous. I have no idea where this came from, but it is an experiment, as all my stories are. My only warning for this one would be for my fans (if I have any), as they might find this sappy and boring. ***** The wine's bouquet scented the room as they gazed serene...
"Sam, where are the kids' passports?" I could hear Justine's voice from where I sat upstairs on the third floor in my home office. Her French accent made the "the" sound like "zee." "Check the top drawer of your dresser," I hollered back. After a few moments, I could hear her answer, "Found them! We can't plan a trip to Disney World without these." Though...
You should know from the beginning that I'm not into bullshit. I'm not so much a writer as a doer. I can express myself elegantly enough when the situation calls for it, but mostly I don't think it's worth the time it takes. So what you're about to read is going to be largely simple and straightforward, without lots of fancy phrases or figures of speech. My...
"So, this is the famous Kari Wuhrer, eh? How have things been for you of late?" I spoke from behind the sultry screen siren, known for iconic roles such as Maggie Beckett in Sliders and Allison from the Prophecy. "Yes, that's me. What can I do for you?" the actress looked up from her table on the outside patio section of the bistro, the look on her face su...
The chapters unfold in a sequence of true events from 1966-2005. (Chapter 9) "If Only" (circa-1973-1975) The forty-five minute drive to the seaside village of Newton-by-the-Sea council offices each day wasn't something he looked forward to, but the increase in salary and the positive signs for promotion far outweighed the negatives, so the decision to ac...
Linda felt itchy. It was not a parasite or pest problem it was the filling of the moon. Every night the moon grew wider and brighter, every day she could feel the wolf within her drawing nearer the surface. It was as though the fur of her beast tickled her skin from beneath as it paced, waiting. She couldn't remember being this aware of it before. It could...
This is mostly a narrative of how I wound up in a war zone and the results thereof. There is only minimal sex in this story. I hope you enjoy it. *** Ordinance has been going off for about half an hour now. Most of it has been too far away to worry much about it personally. But every now and then, one will explode nearby, probably around fifty feet or so a...
