(This is dedicated to my husband who encouraged and "pushed" me to try writing.) * It's a lonely world when you grow up in a broken home. When your parents can't get along and you are pulled from one home to another during visitation, it's hard to understand what you're supposed to take to heart and learn. How in the world she grew up with a sound mind is...
--// Hi I'm Kate. I hope you don't mind the slightly less literary format and whatnot. Originally was written as just a blog/journal entry. Hope you enjoy! *** When I was 18, during my last year of high school, we got a young substitute teacher, he was like in his 20s, of course older than me and my friends but still younger than most other teachers by a m...
Ethan could see her as he turned to do another lap in the pool. Each time he came up for air, his eyes automatically sought her. Ms. Smith, or as he knew her, Paige. She was sitting in a chair by the edge of the pool looking down at the papers in her lap. Dressed in a tight skirt and button-down blouse, she really didn't fit into her surroundings. Thanks t...
A pretty and obviously affluent forty-something woman in a very short maternity dress approached the short, dark man in the Homer Vargas wing of an erotica bookstore. "My God!

Silverfang said she and her two attendants would be here for the day; I can't wait to see the look on her face when she sees who all will be he...
Ch. 01: Mom in a school uniform 'That was your school on the phone! You've been skipping classes!' Rose crossly spoke. 'Sorry mom. I went the first day, but it was so different, I didn't know anyone. . .' Janice shrugged. 'We had to move to a cheaper apartment, you know that. I'm sorry about the change of schools, but we just have to make the best of it,'...
This is the kind of reader Homer would like to "know." ***** A pretty and obviously affluent forty-something woman in a spankingly short maternity dress approached a short dark man in the Homer Vargas wing of an erotica bookstore. "My God! I can't believe it," she exclaimed. "You are ...you must be ... Homer Vargas!" "Now why would you say that?" the man...
(Thanks to Drewau for editing. Comments and feedback are always welcome and appreciated. All characters are 18+.) I was curious and hesitant about my second class for the day. I had to skip it yesterday to get my physical done. The class was called Human Sexuality: A scientific study of human reproduction. Before yesterday, Human Reproduction wasn't somethi...
Young Cassandra looked with some satisfaction at the paper handed back to her. An "A" was inscribed there in red marker, followed somewhat enigmatically she thought, by "Please see me after class." Idly she flipped through the essay, revelling in the little compliments written in the margin. "Great use of metaphor," was one, "Excellent ironic overtone," anot...
In 2037, a NEW WORLD ORDER was positioned firmly in place. Decades before, many of us thought by this time there would be wars to fight over natural resources or we'd be on the receiving end of a constant pummeling by natural disasters owed to climate change.
