They called my flight over the loud speaker... "Flight KL222 to Kuala Lumpur is now boarding through gate 14. Please have your passport and ticket out ready for inspection." I was heading over to KL for a conference. I was a bit nervous, as I didn't know anyone else who was going, so I was going to be in a foreign country by myself. As I joined the queue to...
Here we are, Babs, two seats. This reminds me of the days when we used to sneak out of college to the coffee shop in the high street. I don't know about you but I am going to have a cappuccino with lots of froth and lots of chocolate. How about you? Just a latte -- are you sure? What about one of those chocolate eclairs? No? I hope you didn't mind me calling...
William was a young man but his time was running out. In his mid twenties, he didn't have a lot of time to accomplish his mission. His parents and siblings had all died when he was young and subsequent research into his family tree showed that his family was nearly extinct. In fact, he was the last male of his family. He was determined not to be the last of...
This is a story about life. Not everyone's life, just the life of a few people growing up and having problems. It is not our responsibility to judge one on their skin tone but it is out there.

You're having a great night out with your good friends - one of the best you can remember for a while. You've been to a few bars and had a cocktail and a few glasses of good wine - enough to be happily relaxed from the effect of alcohol but still well in control. You all feel like a dance and decide to go to a new club that you've heard good things about....
I sat at the bar, my dark auburn hair brushing my back as I drank the Buttery Nipple shot down. As soon as he walked into the bar, I felt his presence. He was darker than everyone in the room; more powerful and complex than the crowd around me. My lips curled slightly as I felt him draw closer. "Hello, lover," I said softly as he closed the last few feet be...
Setting: Night club, downtown Vegas. Summer, warm, near midnight. I walk out of the casino after just losing my ass at the poker tables. I wander into the dance club to get a drink and hopefully change my luck. Bartender hands me my beer and I flip him my last $10 chip with an "Oh well, easy come, easy..." when I notice that he is not even looking at me. I...
Brandy Stern stood in front of her full length mirror, "not bad if I do say so myself" She mused. Standing five foot eleven inches in her stocking feet, she weighed in at 175 lbs, a far cry from her weight just six months ago. Brandy had struggled with weight loss for years, made excuses about being big boned, having a genetic propensity for weight gain, s...
"Ok, so lets play a game. Five rounds of five card draw poker. First to three winning hands gets to be in charge and the loser plays the part of sex slave." I chuckled to myself at my own suggestion, after all I played in poker tournaments and could stack the deck however I wanted. "Sounds delicious, but I have one condition" Judy said. "Winner is in charg...
