  1. Thank you @Modified Cub. I appreciate you reading and commenting! The conclusion coming tomorrow morning.
  2. And in this case, Employee of the Month didn't even exist before he started! 🏳️‍🌈
  3. Very happy to hear it's working for you! Just a little more to go.
  4. Chapter 8: I’ll Call Robyn When Alex made it back to the bullpen in the downtown office, exhausted, exhilarated, and still slightly damp with sweat under his performance polo, he found his desk completely empty. For one heart-stopping second, he thought Davis had changed his mind and fired him on the drive back. Instead, he’d been upgraded. The machinery of Axiom Communications had already moved at terrifying speed. "Davis texted me from the road," Taylor said, a bright, mani
  5. Thanks, Cane buddy. It is a bit of a mess. But as Will Rogers said, "If stupidity got us into this mess, then why can't it get us out?"

    Hurly-Burly

    Thanks, Cub. Very glad you enjoyed it.
  7. @dboggs9700 there will be a hit. I think.
  8. Thanks, Cub. You don't have long to wait.
  9. Thank you, Peter. I'll post Part Two tomorrow, and the concluding Part Three the day after.
  10. Chapter 1: Partner in Crime Two and a half weeks into his tenure at Axiom Communications, Alex had achieved the impossible: he was perfectly invisible. He sat in one of the overflow chairs against the back wall of the glass-paneled conference room, positioned behind his supervisor and well away from the main mahogany table. He’d been brought into the business development review strictly to shadow as part of his new-hire onboarding. His primary directive was to take notes, absorb
  11. When a straight guy accidentally comes out as gay at work, the sudden attention is too good to lose. To keep the act going, he asks his straight-passing best bro to pose as his boyfriend for the company gala. It’s a foolproof plan that can’t go wrong—until it does. A complete story in three parts.
  12. Many thanks for reading and commenting, from me ad from Jon & Rob too!
  13. Really glad it landed well with you! I ought to give my husband co-writing credit, if only for originating the insane Louis Armstrong impression for me.
  14. Thanks so much. Maybe more to come, but Jon & Rob's big story is always available, titled A Charmed Life. ♥️
  15. Two work-from-home dads try to carve out a little time for themselves—a rare, much-anticipated sex date. But between kids, Zoom calls, and the chaos of daily life, even the best-laid plans to get laid get derailed. This story is a stand-alone follow up to A Charmed Life, but you don’t need to have read that one to jump in. Everything you need is right here.
  16. Chapter 1: You're the Top It was 8:30 on a Friday morning in mid-spring, the pink flowering cherry trees were blooming just outside the window, and Jon was already trapped. He stood at his makeshift standing desk—which was actually just his laptop perched on top of his and Rob’s bedroom dresser—staring at a blinking cursor. He had already gone for a run in the dark and showered, leaving him in an outfit that perfectly represented the bifurcation of his life: a crisp, Oxford-blue
  17. It's not a feel good story, but I hope not too sad. I suppose there's a sense of Tom never quite getting something he longs for. But for what it's worth, I don't think he's unhappy.

    Hurly-Burly

    @sandeman, you are so kind. Thank you. There are a few darker ones in there, but I'm very glad to hear you were left smiling and happy. We need a lot of that in the world.

    Thanks, buddy. Sometimes you gotta go sweet and adorable, right?

    Thanks @dboggs9700 ♥️ This one is actually a pretty old story. But I'm deep in a longer one right now, coming soon (I hope): Employee of the Month.
  22. When he's paired to share a bed at a family get together, Trevor discovers the romance of his life is closer than he ever expected.
  23. 1. My sister’s wedding week was, as my mother liked to call it, another Hurly-Burly. That was her blanket term for all of my dad’s family gatherings. The Hurlys were a chaotic tribe of Irish Americans who thrived on big, sprawling get-togethers that, according to my mother, went on too long and involved far too much drinking. We convened at my grandparents’ sprawling suburban home, a place of generous guest rooms, a vast backyard and garden, and even an inground swimming pool with its
