*Chapter 2*

And They’re Off!
 
 
“Er…” I offered.

“Ach sorry, Innerthausen, Paul Innerthausen.”

“Tali was um, telling me you were riding.” How much of a doofus does that make me sound?

“Mark, everyone calls me Cav though.” Mr C offered his hand. “I think we crossed wheels in Poland last spring.”

“Of course, you are the sprinter no?”

I don’t know if it was loyalty or stubbornness that had motivated me to still go with it. Loyalty or stubbornness that made me continue our quest to adopt a child.

Here’s a gargoyle that kept me up about an hour last night insisting that I write it.

Morgan sat on a curved oaken bench at the edge of the parkway surrounding the harbor. It was late afternoon, and, far to the west, the sun was hovering just above the water’s edge. “Seems like everything’s getting ready to die,” he said sourly and flicked his half-finished cigarette into the water.

“When did you first notice?” asked a very female voice.

This is a gentle coming-of-age story about a college-aged boy becoming the girl he knows he truly is.
With the help of his two girl friends he becomes Susanna as they teach him all about life as a girl.
Please note this is a gentle, sentimental tale and although there is some sexual content it is inferred, NOT graphic and tagged where it occurs.

I straighten my short black pencil skirt and my clingy, translucent tights as I jump in the back of the pink London cab. I slip my stiletto heels off and stretch my tired toes, satisfied that a hard day’s work is complete.

“Don’t let those toes get too comfortable,” Viks teases as she gets in the driver’s seat. “Aren’t they going to be supporting your entire bodyweight later tonight?”

“Ugh, don’t remind me,” I mock-groan. “I mean, it’s not that I DON’T like ballet, it’s just- haven’t I worked hard enough today?”

Synopsis

Ashley touches an alien artefact one day and an alien invades his body with incredible results.

Chapter 5

“Matt,” said Lorna, “stop being silly.”

Matt grinned and Jav realised he’d been joking.

The Lowe brothers find themselves in the U.S. western territories, during the era of the Old West. Where they meet the Midnight Bounty Hunter.

Who is this mysterious Midnight? Whom had no past. Is he friend? Foe? Or, someone in-between?

And Ed, Bob, Annie, and John, are hot on the heels of Lewis and Stan. Unfortunately, they are not the only ones closing in on the Lowe brothers.

CHAPTER 29
“You ready, Gerald? Ernie’s here with them two officers!”

I took a last look in the mirror, making sure my tie was as straight as I could get it, the medals just so, my black beret with the badge sitting perfectly. The red hair didn’t quite go with it, but couldn’t be helped.

Chapter 13

*Ding Dong*

The door to the Walters home opened and there was Donald standing in the doorway.

“Come in ladies, come in.”

“Thank you Donald. However, I wish we were here under better circumstances.”

“Jocelyn said this was an official visit. I think we both knew that sooner or later it would come to this. Brit just doesn’t seem to get it and just won’t stop playing these pranks on people.

Anyways, we can discuss this all over dinner. Come into the kitchen and sit down, dinner is almost ready.”
