Ch. 2 (1983-1984) Dealing with loss, poorly, very poorly Several weeks had passed since Randy learned of Carol's passing. He spent his off-duty time drinking. He was managing to keep his drinking from interfering with his duties but his supervisors were more than aware and more than a little concerned. In addition, he was isolating himself more and more. T...
(Author's note: this is a sequel to the TV series, particularly the episode "Comrades in Arms". I'm not claiming this is how Hawkeye and Hot Lips's relationship HAD to be after they got home, but a possibility. Incidentally, this would be a Romance more than anything else, so be advised.) It was a placid day in the Maine coast: a calm April Wednesday with...
The late afternoon sun slanted through the windows of the house she grew up in. Maggie McIntyre woke up after a nap: her day had been longer than any shift she'd pulled during her Residency, and she still felt tired. The room still looked the same as it did when she moved away from home to college: a girl's room with lace lampshades and curtains, a ruffle ar...
Introduction This story is mostly true. I say mostly because of changing the names of the guilty as well as the innocent, but also because I have even forgotten most of the names that I did know. I am writing from a series of memories that may be somewhat clouded, and I embellished somewhat. I hope you enjoy this journey into my sordid past. This account is...
Not as much sex as some of you like. Not as much BTB as others want. More narrative than still others can tolerate. And more detail than necessary. Still, it is what it is and some of you may even enjoy it. My wife went where? With whom? ----And I wasn't supposed to find out about it! The living room had three. The kitchen two. Guest bedroom two. Master be...
If you are looking for the repetitive lines of sex don't read my work. It's been done to death. If you are looking for violence involving a woman you won't find it here. I recognize there are exceptions to every rule but damn few for don't hurt the ladies. This is close to my story, not quite but close... ***** Randy was 21 when he fell for Carol. Carol wa...
Confessions of a whoremonger. I am writing this story as a mini-series. There is quite a bit to tell of the year that I was in Korea. This story is mostly true. I say mostly because of changing the names of the guilty, but also because I have forgotten most of the names that I did know. I am writing from a series of memories that may be somewhat clouded, a...
5:03 I'd made it to Saturday. My feelings were conflicted. The time loop had been soul-crushing at times, it could make everything seem pointless. It was a lot like purgatory. But in some ways, I was quite thankful to have been caught in it. Besides the obvious- averting millions of deaths, I thought I was coming out the other side better for the experien...
**It takes a while, because it sort of a MF love story, but one with a big twist. And it follows the contours of a very much true story** * The academic job market is tough, especially for an English major. The problem is that one becomes invested, you catch the learning bug. Luke caught that bug early. Coming from a small town like Robins, Iowa, there was...
Author's note: I'm not eligible to win anything in this competition since I won something in the Holiday Contest with "The Bell Ringer," but... writing is addictive and I just couldn't help myself! Sometimes I write for readers and sometimes I write for myself. I hope a few of you like it - those who don't please be gentle! Some truth to this tale: everyth...
