Readers,
My new story in the Sex Date Series Memorial Day – Remembrance has posted.
I wrote in the first Hannah and Zack Sex Date story back in August of 2020 about a fictional war in Poland that took place in the summer of 2028. I just made it up, why not 2028 was 8 years in the future. Almost 2 years before the Ukraine – Russian War started in Feb 2022. In early 2022, when I was deep into writing about the events of my fictional 2028-29 characters, I had no idea how history was to play out with the war still going on in Ukraine. So I skipped writing about Memorial Day weekend 2028. Could there be a war in 2028 in Poland? I hope not, but the possibility exists.
In the last few weeks, I finally felt I had a story idea and was able to write about what happened to Brock that July of 2028 with more clarity now that a real war has been going on for over 2 years, I understood what the new modern battlefield could look like a few years from now. I did my best to get the knowable details right of equipment, uniforms, and feelings, even studying how tantra sessions work.
I used the backdrop of Memorial Day for Brock, Bob, and Zack to reflect and honor those fictional events and have little fun at the same time. In the story I also explore a new type of stress therapy, tantra, and include a couple of crossover characters from the Wilkins and Friends Home Nudity story.
I hope you enjoy this short story. I am a Veteran myself and enjoyed writing it. I have also spent a number of years in Poland and regularly visit and have friends in Ukraine constantly under threat. I did my best to imagine how and why a short violent campaign might play out.
This morning, I went out and helped plant flags next to the headstones of local Veterans at our cemetery. It was a good experience, and I will now continue to do so each year I am in town.
As always, thanks to my editor Steve for the good edits and feedback.
