When I was through 'getting serious' with Jim, I sat back down in one of the chairs near the fire, lit one and tried to relax a little. Slowly, my pulse and breathing returned to normal, and I was aware that Jim had gone upstairs, leaving me alone for a moment. I walked into the kitchen to get a cold drink, and noticed that, after all this time and activity,...
From the corner booth, three piece-suited Andrew "The Axe" Culligan glared around the Muncie Chef Supreme. No business, poor location, part-time hours. What a joke. Just another rundown fast-food burger joint, interchangeable with a thousand others littering American highways. It would be shut down, soon - he'd see to that. He'd earned the title "The Axe."...
Greetings readers! This story is not for everyone and in fact it is meant for a very few individuals who may show an interest in my work. Voting is on if you care to but it really isn't necessary. So sit back and relax, enjoy the story and I hope it makes you think. "All rise. County court is now in session with Judge Richard P. Carmack presiding. Judge the...
My friend Phil was the quintessential bachelor not getting married until he was nearly forty, thirty-seven to be exact. He owned a gym, drove a new Corvette convertible, and was a regular, every night, at all of Boston's hot spots. Friendly and personable, Phil knew everyone and because he was such a popular guy, everyone wanted to be his friend. Every weeke...
For years my wife and I heard about the Renaissance Festival near our home but never attended. Somehow I had an image of a bunch of people sitting on blankets watching people pretend to sword fight, it is NOTHING like that. We had friends who went every year and invited us but I always declined. Finally, I rode there one day with a friend of mine on our Harl...
It had been a typical Wednesday night at the bar. A few regulars sat at the bar stools slowly drinking themselves into a stupor after a day’s work or whatever they do before they come in. A random table of coworkers still dressed in business attire drank their gin and tonics and laughed periodically throughout the night. There were a couple of ladies, maybe...
I think this one is a little better than my last submission. Please let me know if you like it. Rick stared at the computer screen in wonder, swept off in a river of thoughts. His mind reeled over the desire for Jane Preston to actually be as she described herself in her bio. And he was simultaneously filled with another sensation, which was probably env...
So, um, I've got a bit of a problem. I'm not sure how to say this so I am just going to say it. My name is Theodore Emmett Xavier, and my friends call me Tex. It's essentially my three initials, if you will. I know, I know, you can't have three initials. Hey, if Hollywood actor Jonathan Taylor Thomas can do it, so can I. Anyhow, where was I? Oh yeah, I was a...
It was just after 6 P.M. when Anna spotted Odette on the barstool. She was dressed for hot weather with her white Capri's and spaghetti strap, navy camisole. On the other hand it did not matter where Odette was; she could generate her own heat wave. Anna watched her for a moment, wishing they were back at the apartment so she could slide the straps off Odett...
Man, I have been feeling so depressed lately. My sexy Jamaican girlfriend Tasha Thomas dumped me for another guy. And I became the laughingstock of the University of Ottawa campus. When you're a young Black man of Haitian descent at a White school in Canada, it really sucks. My name is Arthur Saint Pierre. And these days, my life really sucks. I kind of hate...
