Author's Note: I don't routinely read stories in this category because I find the fantasies described in them often differ so greatly from mine (which, incidentally, means recommendations would be great!). So, I don't know much the psychological play out tends to be described by other authors. The two main characters in this story represent real people in my...

The first time Meredith saw him, she felt...
My sexy 22-year-old wife, Alice, told me that a girlfriend had asked her to come with her to audition for a cable TV show called "Playing A Round." I encouraged her to try for a part.

In the small New England college where I taught English, every professor was also required to take on the coaching of a sport or extra-curricular activity. I took on Drama since I had always loved the theatre. We did only one big production a semester, and the one for that semester was to be "West Side Story," a huge undertaking because of the size of the c...
I want to thank readers for their encouraging words, but I especially want to thank my friend, NoraFares for her help and proofreading skills. If you want to read great writing, catch her stories. This is a romance. There's some sexual content, but not a lot of sex here. If that's what you're looking for you may choose to pass on by. All characters are ove...
