A few years ago my job took me to Athens, Greece. It
was a short trip-only six days-but the month was May
and since all my recent excursions had been in the dead
of winter I was really looking forward to this.
When I got out of the airport that Tuesday afternoon I...
My name is Violet P. Snicket. Quite a few many years ago, I grew up a Baudelaire. That seems a lifetime ago.
My husband, Lemony, may have told the story of my childhood to you. I admit he is a great story teller. He added a lot of details that are certainly interesting and entertaining...
The beat of the bass guitar, the drum pounding, the rhythm of the music pulsed as though at one with Sandys body. She closed her eyes. Holding a hot iron away form her and the ironing board Sandy spread her knees squatting as she swayed, her hips rolling from side to side. One, two, three to the...
We moved in late May and looked forward to the coming
hot weather. Tom got some friends of his from work to
help us move everything into our new apartment quickly.
The complex was set up with four units in each building
and a court yard between each. They were actually town-
houses with...
The call was said over the microphone backstage and the actors knew it was time to get in places. Kelli was so excited to go on stage. This was her first leading role as Sarah in the farce, "What the hell is going on?" The play was about Sarah, a businesswoman comes home to her apartment from work and...
Leila's Picnic Weekend, Part 1
Leila woke up and looked at the clock by her bed. A few minutes past half-past nine. David was going to pick her up shortly. She thought back to Wednesday. She had gone with him to a strip bar. And David and Cyndi had stripped her naked. Stark naked, except for her...
Leila arrived at the medical building just five minutes before her 10:30 a.m. appointment and took the elevator to the tenth floor. Her new job required a complete physical, and she had decided to combine that with her annual checkup. Since her old schoolmate Maria worked in Doctor Hillock's office,...
"It was a million to one fluke" 19 year old James Stockwood thought to
himself as he finished copying the video tape and ejected it. Removing
it from the recorder he went downstairs and out of the house only to
return 2 minutes later minus the tape. Then taking, a deep breath,
he picked up the...
It was a hot spring night, I was on routine patrol, and
being relatively new to the job, I guess I was still
pretty green. I was working my way back to town when a
beat up Chevy flew past me. I thought I recognized the
car as I took off after it. I caught up to it and hit the
lights. I was...

Die Chefin Teil 2Am Mittwoch ging sie früher als sonst in die Agentur, da heute ja der Abschluss und die Präsentation der Kampagne, die gerade in Arbeit war anstand. Sie hatte ein mulmiges Gefühl im Magen, da zum Abschluss ja die Kunden kommen würden und sie nicht auf Gnade ihres...
Leila had spent the morning cleaning her apartment. It was now nearly two weeks since she had first met David. She could hardly believe that she remembered the day she now thought of as "naked Friday" almost fondly. She still blushed occasionally when she thought of the six hours she had spent...
Nancy Johnson was no stranger to travel; as a free-lance writer and
photographer, she had spent much of her life abroad, visiting and writing about
innumerable locations about the world. At 54, she often went with her husband,
who followed his own pursuits while she engaged...
"Mrs. Johnson! Mrs. Johnson! Let's go. We've got a different program for you
today!" She moved wearily, looking up at Clarence, standing beside her cot.

seemed quite early.
Clarence immediately enlightened her. "It's...
