Rich Fake Witch
October 10, 2021 By
The King of Halloween needs a fake date and this girl needs to be a true witch.
He’s got a killer reputation, social status, unfathomable wealth, fast cars, and all the women he wants.
Hell, he even has a video game character made in his likeness. Brother…
But, he’s willing to pay the big bucks for my high-end escort services.
If the boy needs a monster to prance around his annual Halloween Crawl of Horrors experience, then I’m his ghoul.
The only real problem is that I’m terrified of things that go bump in the night.
Halloween is NOT my holiday.
But, I can swallow my fear for a month and play Barbie to his Ken.
The main thing to keep in mind is that the man is a client. None of this is real.
Not the wealth, the heat, the steamy moments where I want to give up all of my candies and stop being a trick… all fake.
And he is completely off-limits.
The fact that he keeps making me feel so safe in the swirls of horror around us isn’t helping anything.
He might be looking for a rich fake witch, but I’m starting to feel forever.
Maybe I’ll just put a spell on him. ‘Cause then he’s mine…right? $0.99 on Kindle.

Pitlochry and the Road to the Isles
October 8, 2021 By
A picturesque journey in the Highlands of Scotland from Ben Vrackie along the quiet shores of Loch Tummel and Loch Rannoch, the mountains of Schiehallion and Meall Garbh reflected in their still waters seems like an innocent meander through the peaceful scenes and wonders of nature.
But it was not always thus. Slaughter, bloodshed, Viking invasions, heartless evictions; the creachs of the Children of the Mist and the atrocities of the Wild Men of Rannoch tore this area apart as it struggled to survive the blood hounds of the chief of the Clan Campbell and the sword of Butcher Cumberland during the long, dark, Jacobite years.
But despite all that there was good. People who changed a way of life, an attitude to life, life itself – whether it was for the good or to the detriment. Retrospect reveals how dedication or passion can make a lasting legacy – can make history. $1.99 on Kindle.
