Edited by Red Martha. In "Joanne's Metamorphosis" my male protagonist was a successful writer of country music; I've only borrowed a sliver or two from that story theme. My musical tastes are eclectic; I enjoy classical, jazz, blues, classic rock, alternative rock and country---pretty much anything other than gangsta' rap. My son reintroduced me to country...
This is chapter 5 of "Our Song". I strongly encourage readers to read chapters 1-4 before reading this one, but for those of you who do not wish to, here is a short recap. *** Owen, the narrator, goes with his friend Joey to a pick-up bar. Joey has just found out his girlfriend was cheating on him, and needed to get fucked to ease his pain. Joey hooks up w...
While it wasn't my intention to have this long a break between chapters, setting up the cliffhanger in the back of the cab was planned. Suffice it to say, the action picks up considerably in this chapter. As always, I owe many thanks to my friend and editor, stevieraygovan. He helps me take the germ of a story and make it the passionate tale you have before...
Prologue: If you have read chapters 1 & 2 you may, by now, have realised this is a true story. The names have been changed along with some of the minor details but the basis of the story is true. This all took place in 2001 and I fell "head over heels" in love with Sandy. * Story Continues. Sandy and I came to an arrangement. She needed money to live and...
The woman didn't just enter the restaurant where I was having lunch; she swept into it, filling it with a sudden infusion of energy. She walked up to the table where the two ladies she was meeting had been sitting – she was fashionably late – greeted them warmly, then headed to the ladies room. I couldn't keep my eyes off of her as she walked by my table....
Author's Notes: First and foremost, Always Faithful is a work of fiction; no characters depict any known persons. To the best of the author's knowledge, there is no women's clothing manufacturer by the name of Business Lady. This is the first part, about five percent, of a much longer story. I intend to submit successive parts frequently. Since the story is...
THE MEETING "Bruce, I'm glad you could arrange to meet me here this evening. I know the lateness of the hour may be inconvenient, but I think I have something that will help us both." "Dr. Gama, I was rather surprised at your call for this meeting, and especially for you wanting it to be confidential, and not for me to tell anyone, especially my wife about...

If you choose to do anything described in real life with real people you do so at your own risk. 2. All characters are fictional and any likeness to any living person is...
[Author's Note: Sorry for the delay in posting this chapter--I had an emergency to deal with.] I spent the rest of the session trying to calm and reassure Leanne. "Mark doesn't strike me as a particularly rash person. He's obviously very upset, but I don't think he'll get on a plane and just disappear. It's much more likely that he's still in town, and th...
I was almost afraid to open my eyes in the morning. I didn't want to see if I had only dreamed I was lying in bed with two wonderful women that I loved beyond my ability to imagine and who loved me the same way. When I did raise my eyelids the image of Mitra's beautiful face rushed toward me at the speed of light and reassured me that I had not dreamed her,...
