Author's note: This story is based on the song 'Tecumseh Valley' written by the late Townes Van Zandt. As far as I can tell, the song itself is fiction; this story certainly is. No characters in the story are based on any living or deceased person. It is set during a major recession in the US in 1880. Conditions portrayed in the story are as I imagine them...

For Laurel and all the others who inspired me. Laurel started all this with her post last Oct: 10-20-1999 12:18 PM A Reader's Perspective (just my opinions, of course!): I like stories that have a story to tell - meaning, they aren't just slices of life ("I woke up, had sex, went to work, boffed my secretary, went home and did my wife again." For me, a g...
Welcome, dear reader, to my latest story. This is a romance -- or rather it is two romances because I wanted to try and tell a story from two separate characters' individual points of view. This means three things. Firstly, there is, in places, a degree of repetition as each character tells their own versions of events. Secondly, that the story is rather l...
Chapter 1 Laughter and happy chatter echoed through the sunroom and kitchen of the Dillon house as Maggie and her old friend, Trisha Lincoln, caught up on the happenings in one another's lives over the past months. The two hadn't had a chance to talk since the Christmas holidays when the Lincoln family came to spend a few weeks in their vacation house in Co...
Note: This story has no basis in fact. It is a fiction. A fantasy totally from the recesses of a mind that is sometimes called into question, whether it is rational, or not. Please read it from a slightly askew point of view, because that is the way it is written. Enjoy. The writer retains all rights to the work. * Chapter 16. Our ship comes in. (FBI l...

Author's Note: This is an attempt at a longer-format story. It could have been posted in many categories and it takes a while to warm up. If you're looking for quick-and-dirty, you'd best look elsewhere. As always, constructive criticism is welcomed. * * * * * "Why are those men all looking at me?" Amber wondered as she emerged from the surf. She was feeli...
If you haven't read East Meets West, Part 1, then I suggest you read it now, otherwise this story will make no sense to you. I would also like to add that I don't write sex stories . . . I write stories that have sex in them. Hopefully, the sex enhances the story, but is not the primary reason the story was written. Sex between consenting adults who love eac...
Chapter Ten We were on the bridge, and had barely entered light speed, with ten days ahead of us. Well, I was on the bridge with Bellona, the others were in the nursery with our babies. Bellona said, "It's done," in her usual sweet tone of voice, but I could hear the conflict in it. The future looked bright for us, but I felt that same doubt and regret ab...
