It was my favorite thing to do, to find one of those wild Utah sandstone canyons where only one person a month is likely to visit. They aren't the most dramatic canyons, in fact they are pretty plain, but not easily accessible to the ATV junkies or cattlemen. A long backpack in, without a definite water supply such as a spring, and not part of a National Par...
Greetings beloved readers, this is the second of a five part series. I will post each chapter about a week apart. Many thanks to fellow authors and occasional collaborators Friskee_cpl who gave me notes on the story and whose stories served as a vital inspiration for this tale. * Roy was watching the lifeguard on his platform angrily bleat on his whistle w...
Chapter 9 – Birthday Party About 8:55 Tuesday morning, as I did four days a week, I wandered into the lecture hall where my introductory poli sci class was held. Finding a seat on the right aisle near the front, I took my jacket off. I then plunked my denim-covered ass in the seat and pulled my poli sci notebook from my backpack. Just before the professor...

We did that Thursday afternoon so we stayed another night at the hotel. We were scheduled to meet with a smaller group of executives Friday morning and present the revisions. Meagan had...

Jake has gone to retrieve his mobile phone from Beth's house while Annie has left to have lunch with Nancy, her sister and their father. The way things have gone so far, it would seem that each will get its own chapter and the...
Author's note: This is version 3. I went back once to edit inconsistencies/continuity errors and really embarrassing editing mistakes, and now I've edited it so I don't have to retcon later on. I wrote the first of these purely as a one-off satire, then it grew while I wasn't looking. I've now worked out the rules of the world properly, so here's another ed...
Gifted Grifter #11: Julie's Revenge We arrived in Vegas late after a long day of driving. It was prime poker time, but we were too tired from fifteen hours behind the wheel to do anything but drag our bags upstairs, make love and go to sleep. I was up first the next morning and lay in bed anxiously waiting to see how Julie would be. I was very concerned a...
It was a sunny warm Friday in June and the start of a wonderful weekend at the jersey shore. Newlyweds Mike & Maria were on their way to a well know beachfront resort. Maria was a beautiful woman, born and raised in Italy, standing about 5'7" tall and a perfect figure on her twenty-two-year-old body. Her long auburn hair blew in the breeze as Mike motored Ma...
The sun was high in the sky and it was getting hot when Cindy reawakened. She laid in bed for a few minutes contemplating their farewell lovemaking. It had been unsatisfying and frustrating. Her husband had been too determined to confirm his virility to pleasure her. If not for their previous lovemakings, she would have resented Carl's selfishness. Cindy's...
