Life was good; I had fun with my children, I was reasonably secure financially, enjoyed my job at the school, and I suddenly had a far more interesting relaxation technique to 'deal with stress'. I had a reasonable social life based around lots of friends, many of which I'd got custody of after the break up -- which again I think says as much about Parker a...
You may recognize some of the characters in this story from my previously published 'Hearth and Home', as this could loosely be called a sequel. All characters engaging in sexual activity are over the age of 18. ***** I couldn't breathe. It felt like this great weight was sitting on my chest, and I didn't know how to get it off. I felt helpless...suffocat...
My second story follows a girl that starts to discover herself. Let me know what you guys think, and for possible future direction of the character/story. ***** I was in my freshman year at college when I had this..."awakening." I'm not really sure what else to call it. I went right to college right after I graduated high school in a small town. There wer...
Once again, I took Randi's invitational theme "Sharing is Caring" a little too literally. This story is in two parts -- the first much, much darker than the second. However, without the first part, the second doesn't make much sense, so please, bear with it. Very grateful for her editing assistance. Part 1 -- Something happened on the way to Heaven. There...
Have you been to a rock show? Did you end up down front in the mosh pit, packed in with thousands of jumping bodies, hot and sweaty as fuck, people crowd surfing over the top of ya, their feet and other random shit hitting you in the head, and you're elated, jumping with the human wave, bouncing off your feet to the beat and rhythm of the music, which is pum...
Thanks to the lovely gentlemen who braved my horrible grammar and terrible sentence structure and edited all 24k words. Without them, you'd be grimacing at least every second paragraph. ~~~~~~~~~~ I was cooking dinner when my husband announced he was leaving me. At first I didn't quite hear what he was saying. Our five year old daughter was trying to tal...

The meat coma hit Vicki before I paid the bill. She looked down at her distended belly, which had just added a scoop of ice cream to the beef she'd eaten. She let out a very non-lady-like burp, then leaned against Liv and started to fall asleep. "I think she reached her limit on schnitzengruben," I said with a laugh. Liv didn't get the reference, but Blazing...
*This is another one that's been sitting around for far longer than it should have.* -- It was a quiet, cold Wednesday evening, and my shift was about three hours old. There were still a few minutes until I would stand and start the hourly walking patrol I did of "my" six story office-block. My boss, Bill, still gave me shit about that. "Unnecessary, comp...
