Eighteen year old Paul is asked to help his mother with a sewing project. Everyone
knew that Paul bore a strong resemblance to his grandmother when she was young, but
when he lets his hair down and becomes his mom's dress model, they realize that he
truly was made in her Spit and Image.

Quinn's world is becoming something very different than he'd expected. Girlish
feelings of all kinds are occupying his thoughts. A new dress for his outing with
Ricky, and some thoughts that are confusing him make his evening out one of
the most enlightening of his young life.

Chapters 1 & 2 of Part 3 were previously posted out of order. This has been corrected with the finishing
of Part 2 of the series and now the addition of Chapters of 3 & 4 of Part 3 to keep the posting organization
of this series in line with the previous postings. All mistakes made were mine. ~ Sephrena

Are We Not Men?

An old story of mine from 1997, Are We Not Men? is an obvious homage to H.G.Wells The Island of Dr. Moreau - with a TG twist, of course. As with Embers, this is submitted in it's original form, warts and all. Please enjoy this Halloween treat.
