Layabout. Part 4 of 4

Chapter 4

As we moved into the summer season, the main sales at the Village were swimwear and we weren’t needed so much. We spent that time with the drama group. The first show we did was a stage version, greatly edited, of ‘Some Like it Hot’ as a farce. It went down well, and then we worked on another show where we played a married couple. That was the one where we were seen by an agent from London.

The Old Alhambra -3-

The Old Alhambra

This tale is complete in Six Chapters which will be posted at approximately weekly intervals

This, the third chapter, is entitled

Faces in the Mirror.

Readers should be aware that this is primarily a Ghost Story.

The TV/TG element is crucial to the plot but occupies a comparatively minor part of the text.

Those wishing to absorb a little of the ambience prior to reading should visit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pW4ThXetHkI&NR=1 and hear Helen Shapiro sing the last verse and refrain of the song that runs like a thread throughout the tale.

The Unicorn's Gift - Part 4


The pain grows ever stronger,
Like a blackness on the soul
Ever near, and ever dear
It grows beyond control.

Though night can be a comfort
a refuge from one’s plight
To flee into a darkness
As deep as any night.

But, fears once held in darkness
can sometimes set things right,
for only from the darkness
can you see the farthest light.

She paused, aghast at a sudden thought. "You're not a cheerleader, are you?"

"No," I said. "Never have been, never will be."

"Oh, good!" she cried, with obvious and immense relief. "I mean... not that there's anything wrong with cheerleaders!"

White Satin

By Melanie Ezell

She was finally ready.

It had taken more than thirty years to correct God's little mix-up, but it was worth it. She still wasn't perfect, the severe cut of her dress working to hide the few traces of masculinity she'd never be rid of, but if he loved her as is, she could live with a few flaws.

As her march started, she donned her veil, and stepped out the door.

The Unicorn's Gift - Part 3


I see your face before me,
my friend of many years.
It’s distant, and looks strangely
through the shimmer of my tears

Your face, so sad in anger.
Our lives so many lies.
Your features look familiar,
but you have a strangers eyes.

I can not hide the me inside
for what I need to be.
It’s who I am, mistake or plan,
that’s all there is to me.

Marcie And The Amazons: 5. Blue Water

Cameras flashed, and the crowd surged forward around her. I had to move fast, or they were going to cut me off.

Here are eighteen stories of lumberjacks and bodyguards, fishermen and drag racers, plumbers and financiers who took a risk and fell in love with someone unexpected. They're a lot of fun and one or two of them might make you laugh-out-loud or even get a little teary-eyed. You should take that risk -- after all, romance is worth it.
