"Checking out, but what's that on her feet?"
She grips his shaft with nails a perfect match for her new red shoes. Yesterday they went shopping, spending over an hour in the shoe department of a bustling emporium, she trying on every pair of red shoes in her...
"Motorway driving enlivened"
She hurries toward him, away from the lavatory, in her yellow, short-sleeved dress. It comes down to half thigh, and is tight enough to embolden her conspicuous curves. It must be abundantly clear to any of the other people at...
"Ever wondered what became of Hephaestus?"
I’m Margot, and I’m a Sarxite.You don’t know what a Sarxite is? Well, the short version is that we’re the beings that have been written out of what you people feel obliged to call “Greek myth”. Except there’s nothing mythical...
"I can confirm that real life is stranger than fiction..."

"Our lives had taken very different paths, but here she was in the back of my car"
“Jeez,” the freely perspiring, oversized hunk of man beef said, opening the car door. “How come it always rains in your country?”I wanted to ask if a man who clearly had hyperactive sweat glands didn’t find England more congenial than...
"It seemed highly irregular, but Margie was determined to make the most of her stay."
