DB86 #1 Thanks Vandemonium1 for inspiring me to put these stories into writing. Edited by Pat Sometimes, when you lose, you still win. ** This is a revised version of my first story. I corrected some mistakes, rewrote some paragraphs, and added a few lines here and there. Enjoy.
A Dryad Story (7) If you enjoyed 'Regrets?', you might like to hear what happened next. Of course Clive isn't in any position to tell the story on here, but Sean can...
An Elements of Power Book (2) With the transition from 86 year old Adam H Barkley Senior, to 26 year old Adam H Barkley Junior complete, Adam now focuses on the future. But, the past is never quite tied up in a neat bow. Adams powers are also increasingly making identity, sexual and otherwise, a fluid and changeable proposition, who are you if you don't recognize yourself in the mirror? The direct sequel to Elements of Power.
A precocious young girl and the nice-guy neighbor have been friends since her family moved in 7 years ago. Now she's 14, and she's decided that neighbor is going to be her man. A power outage gives her the opportunity to spend a weekend--alone--with him, and she sets out to make her plan happen. And he finds out that she is smart, and funny, and adorable, and loving, and curious, and adventurous--and a bit perverse. [All persons in this story should be assumed to be 14 yrs or older]
Ben is destroyed by his wife's betrayal. While still trying to pull his life together, he meets a woman who has also suffered a horrendous past. Can these two broken people find love with each other? I hope you enjoy this story about hope and love. The two main characters are people of faith, and their actions and dialogue reflect that style of life. If any hint of religion offends you, this is your fair warning.
Annie Golden is a sweet naïve woman raised by her grandfather on a dairy farm in North Carolina. While visiting a friend in California she is swept off her feet by a man who turns out to be dangerous and insane. After escaping his abuse, she goes into hiding. But when her grandfather is attacked and needs her, she heads home knowing the danger she faces.
A middle-aged widower, his old flame, her jealous husband and their families. Ordinary people attempt to deal with jealousy and its aftermath while trying to be true to their own moral code. Perhaps they make mistakes, being human. The title translates as 'Love conquers all things,' [Virgil Eclogues 10]. Does love conquer all here? This story is slow even by my standards.

When the thugs threatened to destroy the Wat and kill the monks, this offended Thorne's Warrior perceptions. After removing the thugs and capturing their leader, he sets out to find those who sent them. He had a mission of his own.
A The Chronicles of Dan Hayward Story (57) On this day, Karen celebrates her birthday at the Go Go Club the only way she knows how, with plenty of sexy fun.
