Still feeling cruddy but better. Hubby decided since I couldn't get away to rest that he would steal me and the three younger kids away for a couple of days and come up here to the BOL. Oldest son conspired with him and he is keeping an eye on the house while we have it re-roofed. I slept...

Please post any comments for Allakaket Airlines here. Thanks, Fleataxi

Authors Note- I began this story awhile ago and have over 80 chapters which i will post here over the next few weeks. alangator At The Podium Joe Quick Part1

Context to the story... For many people the S--- long ago Hit the Fan. The borders of North America are not now as they used to be. Land was seized. Red men and white forced off their land in favour of those with more political pull. The men, who ruled well in one decade, were given the...

Some of you are bound to remember this one but some might not. It was originally posted over at the parsimonous tree rat forum but since it isn't there any longer I thought I would put it in the archives here. Looking over it I realize there are some awful editing mistakes so I'll try and clean...

Everyone: Please post all comments for Escape From the Rat Race here. I REALLY want to know what you think about the story! Thanks, Fleataxi

FMJ An orbital observation platform running in autonomous mode detected movement in the allegedly neutralized zone and pinpointed a wrecked command post as the most likely source. Drone observation of the command post in visible light could not confirm the orbital platform data but long...

The Tunnel Chapter 1 of The Tunnel (V2.0)

I haven't quite finished this one, but my health is a problem and I wanted to get what I have posted. Hope you like what I have here. NOT QUITE EDEN CHAPTER 1 The Hunt The juniper thicket was dense. At least it would stop the wind. It would have to do, Clay decided. ...

Last Day He would have much preferred to send her an e-mail or even a text but he owed her the truth. The last 24 hours or so had finally awoken him to the reality that guided their lives and he had been much happier when he was still clueless about how bad things really were. He was a little...

Here we go. :)

This is a little something I started a few weeks ago. I still don't know if I'll add to it or not. It can stand on it's own, I think, or it can also be the start of a larger story. Either way, I decided to share it with you guys. Happy Holidays! Bad ********** They were finished.

With the Water FMJ (1) The woman stood anxiously waiting on the dock in front of the weathered shack leaning on a gnarled black stick of a cane. A thick braid the color of storm clouds over deep water hung half way down her back as she gazed into the mists rising from the bayou. She...

Revelations FMJ (1) The last twenty-four hours of uncertainty and intrigue had unexpectedly culminated in a family reunion of four generations at a little place called Pop’s Garage on the outskirts of a small town in northern Nevada in what might have been a celebration under any other...

This is the first installment of a story I have been working on for a year + now. It was started as a companion piece to another story started on AssaultWeb by a fellow called Hard Rock. He was shooting up so many patriots I thought a system of underground hopsitals was called for, since they were...

I know I had this story started someplace but for the life of me I can't find it. I've looked all over. Well, I finally finished it. I'm going to post it in a couple of big chunks starting tonight and finishing up tomorrow or the day after that. I haven't done any real deep editing so it is...

Some of you will remember part of this from fs. Maybe with you all poking at me I'll get it finished. My Beloved My Dearest Beloved, I write this not knowing when I will be able to mail it to you. No doubt mail there has stopped just as everything here has. I was at the jobsite when...

Another short one that's been rattling around for a few months. Hope you enjoy. As always feedback is greatly appreciated. Jack punched angrily at the radio station buttons in his truck. He wondered for a moment why he bothered to be angry, he had performed the exact same frustrated...

Didn't want to mess with the storyline so I'll start a thread for the kudos. :) Nice to see you back writing, sir! It has my interest. RR

Friends... I kinda hate to do this--having two versions of the same story up at one time... This is my thoroughly reworked version of the first chapter of "Chi". I had an Epiphany about my writing recently. I am in constant battle with my natural tendency to include huge amounts of...

I am posting chapters of this story in hopes you will enjoy it.

Make comments here and hope you all enjoy the story. Please let me know.

Here is the first chapter of a book that has been rolling around in my head for quite some time. I won't be posting chapters everyday, more like once a week or sometimes twice a week. Constructive critisim is always welcome.. Mountaineer Sunset Chapter One Sitting straight up in bed,...

I am an avid reader of TB PAW stories! I found them after the squirrel dropped theirs. TB has many excellent writers and I have read many of them including Kathy in FL. I know and have her blog site booked marked but is there a current list of her completed stories? I know a few women I think who...

I'm a newbie here, but a long time prepper and a beginning writer. This is the first novel length thing I wrote, and it shows of course, in the defects it has. I've done 3 more since this one that improved some. It is about 220,000 words, so be patient about me getting it all posted. But...

CFI has a nice story going, this thread (hopefully its appropriate) can be used for comments, so the story stays clean. Looks like a good start, Chap

This is the second tale I wrote. It covers the quite different experiences of several families through an economic debacle and societal breakdown. I have been trying to learn a different aspect of what makes a good tale with each one. There are a lot of things to learn--style, plot,...

(Author's note: After having read the EOTWAWKI classics of "Alas Babylon" and "One Second After", I thought that I would take a whack at the genre. My story would be more from a woman's focus and would carry along a deliberate Christian/Catholic angle. I started this a week ago. Now, for the...

Alan..a bit off topic but I was digging thru some stuff I'd saved to HDD from the old EZboard TB incarnation and found 26 chapters of Forever After you'd written in the Purple Prose section in early 2001. The PP section's long gone from EZ BTW. Was there more? Did you stash a copy somewhere?

This is the Beginning of a Science Fiction story that looks as though it may be Horror for awhile, but comes back to Straight SF. Probably won't post anymore until it's done..... Should I decide to continue..... Does it grab y'all? Bright

I was a member here a few years back (different handle) and posted some of this story. I stepped away for some time to deal with some life issues. During that time I reworked the story so wanted to share the updated story. Hope that you like it. It Begins… The morning was clear, chilly but...

PLEASE put them here. Countless times people have commented on the threads. I'm hoping this time it won't happen.

The story thread already being so big I'd like to keep from cluttering it up but I'm in somewhat of a quandary about a particular phase of the story. For you folks that have been reading it maybe you'd share some thoughts with me and I'll craft something out of them or maybe they'll give me an...

Comments are greatly appreciated, and will be printed out for framing and ego-stroking and my husband's vast amusement.

A small story that I've been working on: Little story I'm working on. Monkey See

I found my self 50ish, 40 lbs over weight and with time on my hands now that second son had headed off to college. I decided to look into the militia. Yes I know it could be a batch f nuckle dragging clamsmen or a bunch of whannabe geer queers but what the heck. Worst case maybe I scare up some...
