Three hours after dinner, our romantic week-end plans had evaporated like a fog. Deana and Jim’s parents weren’t leaving for Boston with the twins as planned until morning. And Timmy had decided to skip his team’s outing. As I watched Jim undress partially hidden behind the open closet door -- our bedroom door was open -- I knew there’d be no flames of passion burning in our bed that night. In 22 years of marriage Jim had never made love to me while his parents were under the same roof. I knew..

She found the hallowed tree where she’d spent the previous night. When she’d settled herself in the realization of a powerful pain racking her body surfaced itself. Allianna shrieked in pain as the turn from mortal to vampiress took it’s toll. The change went on for hours and left her trembling weakly. She was sobbing mutely and rocking on her knees. Even then small surges of pain coursed through her every few minutes. The thirst for blood grew steadily stronger, though she fought it with every.

When he had finally sauntered close enough to speak, Tina heard no basic human warmth in the voice, just a built-in bitterness toward life in general. He leaned down as he spoke, “You just chillin’, or looking for some action?” he said. “I’m waiting for my Father,” Tina managed to say. That earlier tap-tap of doubt became a painful thud that she was sure he could hear. He peered at her through the open window. “Have I seen you somewhere before?” “In a rainbow-ringed mirror,” she said silently...

She was the jewel in the Monarchy’s rusting old crown, like a diamond she shone in her new wedding gown. The people were eager to break from the dreary old past, little knowing that for Diana the dream wouldn’t last. She was radiant for a while at the birth of her boys, her full attention she gave to their games and their toys.

As time goes by, I’ve missed so much, your loving hugs and gentle touch. As your bodies grow too fast to see, I hope you’ll both remember me. A few hours here, a few days there, some stolen time to show I care. Small locks of hair, I’ve kept for years, to have you close, would halve my tears.

As two lonely souls cry out for love, their mates must fit them like a glove. Along the way they’ll meet their kind, but a perfect match is hard to find. Like two fireflies lost in cosmic cloud, their lights burn dim, their hopes in shroud. Their primal needs force them to try, to seek each other, though they no not why.

Excerpt

Alone down a squalid back alley, how I wish I could change and go back, to the normal existence I once had, away from my sordid world of heroin and smack. With no money for a fix, I robbed an old girl, her purse and her pension I stole, as she lay on the ground, not a thought did I give, to the pain I had caused in her soul.

The night at the end of my first week at the cabin was filled with the now usual routine. I ate my dinner of Spaghetti-O’s down at the dock. I even whipped out the evil TV tray and brought it with me. As dusk crept in I headed back in to beat the skin-chewing insects that came along with the lessening light. I kept all of the windows around the cabin opened partially; it had been warmer than usual in the Lake Asimmia area the past few days. I played some music on my laptop while trying my best..

FUTILITY Artillery shells come whistling in, like wild banshees in the night. It’s enough to turn the bravest man, a deathly shade of white. The Maxim gun starts chattering, spitting out it’s deadly hail. No one can survive in no mans land, it’s too far beyond the pale. The smell of cordite hangs so heavy, as the troops are torn apart. The dead and the dying are bundled up, then led off on a cart. To get three lights from just one match, is a stupid senseless crime. For the sniper lying just...

I wrote this ebook over a period of 18 months ending early in 2007. As with most works of this nature, it was initially a journey of self-discovery, and piecing together a number of concepts I had been contemplating for a few years. Since writing the book, my own situation has improved beyond expectation, and I now experience a totally different feeling about what I’m doing in my life-about-getting-money. On reflection, the ideas and information flowed in such a way that I was forced first to...

Sally Potter stood in the middle of her living room and surveyed the scene around her. All she could do was sigh in despair. For in every direction she looked, she felt she was being engulfed by a tidal wave of clutter. "We are the untidiest family in the land!" she declared ruefully to herself. She observed with dismay how every available horizontal surface was burdened with the paraphernalia of books, hobbies, school projects, magazines, gadgets, ornaments and games. Day after day, Sally would

THE PROMISE. Eyes meet; they are riveted. A world of meaning flows between them.

I am to be strong and bold and chivalrous?! My preference, a warm caress. I would like to know what makes her stand that way. I am to be weak and pretty and in distress! My preference, a warm caress. And I know this: I see strength; I hear psalms; he draws me nigh; Inside I stand so close to him; near the waterfront, near the sunset, near his heart, near his soul; just outside his touch. [ How to put that into words and show I care ]
