CHAPTER 45
I tugged her out of the marquee and around behind the burger van, where the blast from the band was partially blocked, replaced by the chugging of a small electrical generator.

“What do you mean, Mam?”

“I can’t feel it, love. I mean, I can hear it, feel the sound in my gut. I just can’t FEEL it, can’t move to it!”

OOPS! This story is running away with me. It's looking like 4 episodes, sorry folks.

Chapter 7 – She was playin’ soft while Sunny sang the blues

Imagine you are shopping and suddenly you’re accused of shoplifting. What would you do? And what would you do if you told the truth, to everyone, and because of the lies told by those caught shoplifting, you are deemed guilty? Charles Thorton found himself in this exact situation, while he was at a department store shopping for a necklace for his mother’s 35th birthday. Little did Charles know who he would end up facing after it was decided by the judge he shouldn’t go to juvenile hall.

The Gibbon Girls
A Short Story
By Maryanne Peters

My father was known as “Snake” Gibbon. It was a good name. As hard men go he was not a “Bull” or a “Bear”, he was more like a snake. He was thin and wiry, which sharp, vicious features and greasy long hair in a queue down his back. He was known for getting own way, however he could, including stabbing people in the back, not always with a blade.

Feral Saga Chapter 18 - Magneto's Finale (Part 1)

by Nyssa

A Marvel X-Men Fanfiction starring Wolverine and Jean Grey

Having avoided the compulsory gender transition, Terry Harrington is now well and truly on the run and in hiding whilst disguising himself 'in plain sight' as one of the many kids living rough to avoid the feminisation draft.

 
 
"What are you doing tonight?” I asked Janey, she was doing the rounds with the wage slips.
"I was rather hoping for dinner at Chez Julianne with Rory but he's not rung yet, why?”

Men! They can be so infuriating and thoughtless, that when they do something right it just takes the wind out of your sails. I could count the number of times I apologized to a man on one hand and most of them were to Tony.

“Anna, I’m going for a run, then I’ll be back to shower.”

Anna and Dan were happily married for the last nine years since meeting at college. Now with two young girls, Tracy and Margaret, they were settling into their lives. But the good life had packed some extra pounds on Dan’s frame, and he was determined not to let his burgeoning beer belly bloom into a full pregnancy look.

I make no apologies for getting my idea for this story from Tiff Q's story about the real trouble with Covid 19.

I have adapted Tiffs 'world' of 'No female Y chromosome sperm' and cast my own slant to my story. This could become a 'Universe' Tiff.

Thank you Tiff for the inspiration, Beverly.

Finding Julia Chapter 15

By Julie D Cole

I went back to our table and sat down next to Eve to eat my lunch. I still felt in a daze. Eve obviously noticed and took my hand.

‘What’s wrong because you look uncomfortable?’
‘It’s just that Professor Nightingdale spoke to me as if she new me. She said I looked very pretty and I should take care in the sun because of my fair skin. Do I know her?’
