Smell of the Crowd

by Maddy Bell
Copyright© 2022 Madeline Bell

Life has some certainties, birth and death of course, but the rest is a mix of Minestrone and Spaghetti, some of which we have no direct influence over. We can however decide whether we want Parmesan or other seasoning, we can give Gnochi a try, doesn't mean we'll like it but at least we'll know. Gaby has reached just such a point in her life, she knows she likes Pizza, she's not averse to Spaghetti or Lasagne but is Gnochi for her? The Gnochi in this case is doing the singing with BlauHase on a more serious level, as a 'hobby' its fine but could this be a change of career? Well you don't find out without trying so that's just what our heroine is about to find out in this, the 27th book of the Gaby saga.

Aurora - Chapter 1 - The Plan

Submitted by on

Aurora Book Cover/Image

Brian just wants to be normal like everyone else. His best friend helps hatch a plan that will make that happen. How will it all turn out?

...we both looked down at my torn pants and started to tell the story.

This is the first chapter, in what I hope to be a near novel length book. Chapter 2 is with editors, and work has progressed well on Chapter 3. Your comments and encouragement will help speed me along.

This story will always post FIRST to LG Tales, then to TG Fiction dot NET and then to BigCloset.

Chapter 16 The intrigue continues

I picked up my phone and scrolled through the telephone number list.

Until a few days ago that would have taken me all but 10 seconds but now I had at least one minutes worth. There was nobody on the list that had a number the same as this so I tried to call the number back but there was ‘no service’. Was it a joke from someone. Should I go or not?

You might as well have been subjected to

The attic suite was finished first so Kylie and Larry moved into the suite while Kylie's mom, Eveyln Masters, moved into her second floor bedroom. Tony and his mom, Rachel, would move in the day before Thanksgiving.

by Maeryn Lamonte

CAUTION: This chapter contains a short description of police photographs which may be unsettling

“I'm sorry Miss Raeburn. We did everything we could, but it just seemed like she gave up.”

I nodded. A fresh tear trickled down my cheek and I brushed it away. I'd thought I had run out of them.

“There's another thing. The police are here. I'm afraid they want a word with you.

“What happened? Lose a fight with a bottle of peroxide?”

“Ha-Ha,” Steve retorted, frowning darkly. “Can we please not talk about this on your front porch?”

First, I'd like to apologize for the delay in posting this part. Real life has kind of dominated my time of late, so the next part may be slow in arriving as well. Thanks to all those of you who have stuck with the story thus far.

I'd like to take a moment to thank Angharad, Karen Taylor and PB for their support and proofing skills.

Chapter 15 Lunch with Sis

All I could say was ‘What’s wrong…what’s happened?’ to which Julie put her hand on mine and said ‘Don’t worry it’s just something that happened this morning.’

I was at a loose end after I dropped you at work since mum decided I didn’t need to take her to town so I called in at the Health club for a coffee and to read the newspapers until the shops opened. Who should come in but Rachel Atkinson. Remember she used to fancy you at school but you were too shy to notice. I denied this of course.
