A short story about Leonardo and Spencer who have longed for each other, silently supporting each other not knowing they liked each other. Spencer invites Leonardo to a party at his house and they end up confessing to each other.

This story is a Prompt Response.

Sequel to the 2015 novel Puppy for Sale.

Here we pick up Jensen (Puppy) Stibbings, his family and friends, four months after the events told in the first story. With Greenstone now a distant memory and Puppy's mind maturing fast, he needs to make careful decisions as he navigates his way through a new life.

As we saw previously, drama is never far away from the budding teenager and you can bet it's always 'complicated.' But with loving parents and a protective brother, Puppy might just have the support to rise above the turbulence that often makes up his life.

Follow him once more.

A lesson in education

The Sessions is a collection of transcripts containing the conversations and subsequent appointment notes between a Consulting psychiatrist and her new patient. As a transcript, the story is told entirely in dialogue and is set in a small, plainly decorated room. A teak coffee table separates Patient and Doctor. Although not seen, the Doctor will be taking notes throughout, and these can be read at the end of each visit.
While some of the details within the transcripts may not be entirely medically accurate, I have drawn on my extensive experience of being the “patient” in therapy.

Jensen Stibbings longs for a place to call home. But at Sixteen, and the oldest resident at Greenstone Children’s Home, his hopes are fading fast. With a complex medical condition, anger issues and little to no real-world experience, he continues to get looked over for other younger and more adaptable kids.

Will Jensen see out his childhood days at the home until he is left to fend for himself at eighteen, or will he be saved from the scrap heap that is the care system? Time will tell, in Puppy for Sale.

A sequel (of sorts!) to the story 'The Rover's Return' which appeared recently.

Read it and you will perhaps better understand the first four words.

A group of young fox men's lives get tangled across two worlds—one modern, one magical—where friendships and unexpected connections change everything. As they deal with family drama, magical surprises, and their own identities, they discover what it really means to belong. With plenty of heart, fantasy twists, and real-life moments, it’s all about finding love, yourself, and a place to call home. [BL, slow burn?, warm and fuzzy feelings so hard that you might get cavities, kemonomimi (animal ears and tails).]

This is Part 2 of a 2 part story.

Whether you follow war, like war, read about war or are interested in war it is sadly a fact of life, but can make fascinating reading. The war in Afghanistan is still in play even as I write this in 2021. The country has been through many wars but ‘Him in the dust’ is a point in history (2005-2006) where I decided to start the book that you will read.

After the distressing discovery in his home, a serial killer on the loose and a stranger asking for his trust, Tyler realizes that his life is never going to be the same again.
