As daylight dawned the day following Gabi and Lenore night of hit sex, I was loading my jeep with art supplies. I had wanted to do a landscape of the shrimp boats since Gabi and I moved to Key West. It was a perfect day with a cloudless sky and daylight until 9 PM. I saw Scott and Crystal strolling arm and arm toward our house. Scott, smiling ear to ear g...
My wife and I live in a lovely suburb. Semi detached heaven. Husband's work, wives stay at home and kids go to school and college. An ideal situation I think. But unfortunately my wife Jenny or Jen for short gets bored and unlike me has never experienced hard times, poverty and no money. I have sought to make sure that doesn't happen. So far so good. But Jen...
Caleb paid the driver and tipped him a C note over. "Have a goodnight sir." "You too Biru." The cab driver smiled; his fare tonight was not typical; he'd asked his name and smiled as he made sure he pronounced it correctly. The man had sat quite most of the ride, but he put off a pleasant air and when he spoke to Biru he spoke to him, not at him. Mos...
I was the bachelor of the office. No big deal. Thirty three years old. My life was solely composed of working or working out. I had mostly gotten the results I wanted. Eighty a year with benefits, insurance, the whole package. After work I'd go to the gym and train for a fight that would probably never happen. I stood six-foot two at 195 lbs of muscle, and e...

It's my birthday again. After sixty-one years you'd think that birthdays wouldn't be a big deal any more, but they still are to me. One reason for that is that my ten-year younger wife always pulls out all the stops to make the day special for me. Most men get tools and such for their birthdays. Not from my wife. She works hard to make each birthday extra sp...

*Author's note: I've been asked many times where the name komrad1156 comes from and I've at least partially explained it each time I've been asked. I speak Russian fluently and my dad was born in November of 1956 and there you have it. My mother is Ukrainian. She emigrated from the Soviet Union in the 1970s during one of the large waves of Jews seeking to e...
Taylor guessed that before Thanatos it wouldn't have been usual to find the wreck of a fishing trawler in a field outside Derby, miles from the sea. But having grown up in the ruins of the old world where the only things that mattered were food and shelter, people tended to take these incongruities in their stride. He sat out on the cracked foredeck cradlin...
This is my first submission. I would like to thank xtchr for the very patient editing and the remarkable job he did catching my bad capitalization and punctuation. Unfortunately I added to this after he finished so a few mistakes may have sneaked in. He also gave me much needed encouragement. That said this is fiction. Yes I borrowed some from reality, but n...
