A story in the The Props Master Universe
2013 Clitorides Awards third place for "Best Erotic Fantasy." Wayne is your typical long-hair hippie-type theatre student at ICU in 1968. He has a talent for making props that are very realistic. He enthusiastically recruits first an English exchange student and then an anthropology professor to work with the touring production of "Hamlet" to England. Strange things begin to happen and he is drawn into a centuries-old circle of witches. He might be the next vagabond priest: The Props Master.

What if you got a second chance—not just a redo, but a whole new shot at fixing your biggest mistakes? That’s the wild ride Joshua Harlow is on. It’s 2051, and he’s a man haunted by guilt, regret, and the love he lost. But when Death himself offers Josh a shot to go back in time with one wish, he lands in his childhood (1996), reliving life through new eyes. With humor, heartache, and a dash of hope, this is a story about redemption, love, and the chaos of starting over. For Love and peace!

This is another romance plus a bit. It is set in the Liverpool area of England against a civil engineering background. To say more would spoil the plot. There is no descriptive sex.
