We spent almost all of January getting the house ready to sell. In my mind I had begun calling it Faith's House. It seemed to make leaving it easier. We gave all of Faith's clothes and things to Goodwill, as well as some household goods, like our bed. We went to Cambria every weekend. By the end of the month two things were sure: Our house was on the market...
Chapter 5: Grandma Ellie Dear Reader, I'm sorry for the long time it took me to write Ch. 5; it's been a cold winter in New England, and I've been away in warm lands. You'll find Chs. 1-4 interesting, but Ch.5 makes sense by itself. Don't forget to vote, and send your comments and suggestions. Thanks. Andru. * * * * * Several months had gone by since Joey...
On the last Tuesday in January I was walking back to class from the cafeteria when a tall guy in jeans and t-shirt fell into step beside me. From the corner of my eye I saw him glance at me, and I waited to see what he wanted. It happened, now and then - people had heard of Ali or me and were curious, or worse.

Chapter 1: Introduction During Spring Break of our senior year at Florida State, my friend Chelsea convinced another friend, Samantha, as well as myself to come home with her to Rome, Georgia, to relax a bit. This was out of character for us, as wild, beach vacations were more the norm, but we had gotten into a bit of trouble the year before in Daytona duri...
The atmosphere around the house evened out for a while. The wife got off my back about who the daughter was dating and I wasn't as curious since I had the website and her college confession to tide me over. Our interest in her love life would only flair up when she would go out with Derrick. Her mother would go nuts wanting to know who she was with and I'd g...
I was bored. It doesn't sound very good, does it? No, I thought not, I wasn't too happy about it either. I had even gone to the hair salon yesterday and listened to silly womanly gossip just to be around people. It didn't help my feelings of loneliness but my red hair was now curly and shiny. I guess that was good. I had been in Oregon for six months now. I...
This is not a sensational story. There is no extreme sex or outlandish characters. It's a simple story of a frequent occurrence between fairly ordinary people; me, a forty year old married woman and Jack a forty five year old married man. Yes, it's about an affair. It's about the reasons why they happen, it's about the emotional as much as the physical as...
--Chapter 1-- Jayden and Richard were sitting on Richard's bed chatting when Jayden stuttered a little. "You stuttered a little, you OK?" "Mm? Oh yes I'm fine, it's just..." He trailed off and gestured meekly to Richard's groin, where there was a 6 inch long lump. "Does this startle you?" Richard said this with a smirk. "Uh um a little..." "Tell me J...

Puppets who kill Offices of the Voice, Ludgate Circus Tuesday 4:40 pm Dan slumped down into the empty desk opposite Amy. He picked up a Styrofoam cup from his desk and tipped its contents into his mouth. "That's nearly eight hours old." Amy said without looking up from her computer screen. "Doesn't matter." He replied. "I struck out with the Iraq connec...
