Another Saturday! How are you? I’m nursing a cold I picked up from–wait for it–the hospital, where I went for an appointment on Thursday. Ugh.

Anyhoooo, here’s a snippet from “Deliver Me”, part of the “Satisfaction Guaranteed” Anthology published by Less Than Three Press. Daniel delivers pizza part time in the evenings to help pay bills while working on his Master’s degree. His boss is a major douche bag, and Daniel has finally had enough.

—

“Manny! The fuck, dude. There’s no way I’m going to deliver this on time. You know that! If you want to fire me,
why don’t you just do it, okay? This crappy shit ends right now. What do you have against me, anyway?”

“Okay, Danny boy, your faggot ass is fired!” Manny yelled at me. “And you owe me for the pizzas that are
gonna be delivered for free.” The place went silent.

Everyone was staring at us, customers and workers alike. I took a deep breath, put the order down on the
nearby counter top and took out my wallet. I removed a twenty dollar bill and handed it over, then picked up the
pizzas and addressed Manny.

“You know, I always wondered why you picked on me. Then I remembered the first week when you tried to get
into my pants. God knows I tried to forget it. What, you couldn’t take the rejection? Takes one faggot to know one,
dude. Next time you try to get your little pencil dick in someone’s ass, try a shower first, huh? Maybe a breath
mint, too? I almost passed out from the fumes. Have a nice life.” I walked out, not looking back, though I heard some
snickers behind me.

Try to live that one down, you little peckerwood.

It’s Saturday – yeah! I’m putting the finishing touches on a story for submission today. Wish me luck! 🙂

Here’s a snippet from “More Than a Suit: John”, published by JMS Books. It’s between John–the main character–and Tobie, his best friend.

—

“Since when do you let someone else’s opinion define you?” [Tobie]

“Well, since I realized that the world thinks I’m a self-centered, good for nothing, simple-minded slut.” [John]

“You are not! Well, maybe a little slutty, but you’re harmless. Who do I have to beat up?” Tobie tried to flex his slender frame to be intimidating. Sweet, but not helping.

“Back down, Mini-Me. Thanks, but I’ll be fine. I’ll work through this.” [John]

“You’d better. I miss my sleepy-eyed, over-caffeinated, ass whisperer.” [Tobie]

“Up yours, hon.” [John]

“Got it covered, thanks.” [Tobie]

Happy Saturday! I’m huddled in front of my computer, drinking a mocha peppered with cayenne – yumm. 🙂

Here’s an emotional snippet from “More Than a Suit: Ross”, published today by JMS Books. It’s between Ross, his brother Rhys, and their dad. 🙂

—

“You’re a perversion to everything that’s decent. I don’t  want you infecting Rhys. You’re not welcome here, not
anymore.” As if I ever was.

“There’s nothing perverted about the way I am, Dad. And you don’t give a shit about Rhys. You’re just using him as an excuse.”

“Revolting, that’s what you are. Fuck off!” Dad tried to shut the door in my face, but I pushed back, hard. He stumbled a little
and fell against a wall. He looked shocked at my strength.

I stepped closer to him. “Where the hell am I supposed to live? And who’s gonna take care of the house now, huh? Are you gonna help Rhys with his homework? Half the time, you’re too drunk to remember your own name!”

The slap across my face came without warning, and the echo of it rang in my ears.

Happy Saturday! It’s cold again in Atlanta. You never know what you’ll get from day to day.

Here’s another snippet from “To Lift My Sole”, published by JMS Books. It’s an interlude between Jim and Lance. Enjoy. 🙂

—

“You ready for tomorrow?”

“Is that why you really called me?”

“Ostensibly.”

“Ah. Well, yes, I’m ready. It’s at eight, sharp, but I’ll be there at seven to setup and make sure things are just the way I
like them.”

“It’s so hot to hear you talk like that.” Really?

“So, if I tell you that I’ll be wearing a black Armani suit with a white shirt, gold cuff links, and an understatedly expensive tie,
does that turn you on?” I heard an intake of breath. It would appear so.

“My shoes are, of course, exquisite Italian leather. Everything is fitted perfectly to my frame, projecting supreme self-confidence
to everyone around me. I’ll be the man in charge.”

I could hear sheets rustling in the background, and a soft moan. I grinned. “Are you rubbing off to my voice?”

“How could I not?” He’d put me on speakerphone, and his breathing was labored. “Your voice is lethal.”

Happy Sunday! I’ve been doing my best impression of Sleeping Beauty all weekend. I may even take a nap today. 🙂 Hope you’ve been having a fun Saturday/Sunday.

Here’s a snippet from “To Lift My Sole”, published by JMS Books. It’s a little longer than six sentences, but it wouldn’t make much sense otherwise, I thought.  Enjoy.

—

“Well, hello there.” Did her voice just drop a few decibels? “I’m Paula, a friend of Jim’s. And this is my husband, Bevin.” She
reached out to shake Lance’s hand, and I stood by, like an idiot.

“Lance Lamas,” he replied. “I work, or rather worked, with Jim at the hospital. He’s mum about what he really does for a
living, but he says I’ll figure it out on Monday. You wouldn’t happen to know anything about that, would you?”

“Sorry, no can do.” She removed imaginary lint from his shirt, but I knew she was surreptitiously copping a feel. It was
only flirting, I knew. She was madly in love with Bevin. Paula just liked to get a reaction out of me.

“Why so quiet, Jim?” Her expression was coy.

“I have no words for…whatever’s going on here.”

“Tell me something,” Lance asked after ordering a beer. “Is he always so…difficult to get to know? It’s like pulling teeth.
Though I have fun trying.”

I tried glaring at Paula, willing her by visual osmosis not to say anything. To no avail.

“Oh, he’s a sweetheart, usually. But this assignment has been particularly strenuous, and he hasn’t had sex in years so—”

I gasped in outrage. “Paula!” This amused Lance, and Bevin just shook his head and offered me silent sympathy.

“Looks like I turned up at the right time, then.”

Happy Saturday! 🙂

I’m enjoying a slow day and might even take a nap. Shocking, right?

Here’s a snippet from “Truck Me How I Like it”, published by MLR Press. Not much innuendo here between Derrick (main character) and Paul (lust interest). 😉

—

“So you’re a musician, Mr. Fontana. It suits you,” I said, sipping the second beer I’d ordered while watching the band play.
It would be my last one for the night. I didn’t drive drunk.

“It’s Paul. Why won’t you use my first name? We’re not at work, and even then, I wouldn’t mind. I think you know that.” He sat on the stool next to mine, ignoring the people who were trying to get his attention.

“Habit, I guess. And I’ll continue to do it, now, just because it bugs you,” I replied, grinning at him.

“I might have to spank you if you do,” he said, and winked at me.

My cock perked up at his words. “That right? Well, you’re just full of surprises, aren’t you?”
