Bang! Bang! the Devil Said -- cover preview

Can a sweet young transformee outwit the Mafia, the US Army, the moneyed landowners and politicians -- and The Devil in Drag! -- in wartime Las Vegas?

"You'll know that you're dead when I tell you so! Bang! Bang!" the Devil said.

Sixteen the Hard Way -10- Shopping

Dad and Fooler came home about ten-thirty. Linda had been left to play with Mrs. Pattinson's daughter next door. "She'll get lunch and a nap there," Dad said. "One of us can go fetch her back about two."

I was sitting on the couch next to Do...

Pete's Vagina -19- Fair Catch

I’m not sure how they did it but the three women got me stood up then lying again on the examining table with folded blankets under head and foot while Granny again took my vitals.

Dr. Verre was apologetic. “I’m so sorry, Miss Hunter. ...

Sixteen the Hard Way -9- Sisters

Donna’s bedroom was smaller than mine by perhaps half a foot, but it had a bigger closet. Being a corner room, she had more windows than I did, too. It was a nice room with the walls painted a soft dusty rose and a brighter, pinker ceiling. The ...

Special FX -23- Ultradoll

I wandered around the studio lot for some time before I figured that the music I kept hearing came from the row of old television sound stages. Melrose Film and Sound had leased their stages to the networks and some of the large television produce...

Favorite characters

Who are some of your favorite characters from my stories? I'll start off with some of the current story lines.

Quillian -32- Secret Identities

Finding out who the bad guy really is... Wait... now what?

Daniel's co-eds are pretty cute, don't ya think? :)

And Inkypus's comments continue in world balloons. :)

Pete's Vagina -18- Handoff

Granny measured and weighed me again. Still 5’7” but I’d lost a couple of pounds. I might have to go back to lifting weights which I hated. My temperature, blood pressure and pulse rate seemed to satisfy her.

Then she got personal. “...

Sixteen the Hard Way -8- Breakfast

Mom brought me a robe in the kitchen, where I set out the makings for hot cakes on the kitchen counter. The item was one of mom’s, of course, pale blue with embroidery at the hem, collar and cuffs. At least it wasn’t pink. It did cover me up b...

Quillian -31- A Cry for Help?

A surprising turn in the story that wasn't there in my original outline, but when I got to this point in the scripting, it seemed obviously needed.

This is a highpoint for our hero(ine). Q has defeated and escaped the enemy with a big of hel...

Pete's Vagina -17- Tackled

We got out of there, heading for Jake’s truck. Down in another part of the parking lot, we could see Jake and Joanna standing near her car in some sort of intense discussion.

“I-I hope that’s not about me,” I murmured to Megan as I h...

The Enemy of Time

There are so many stories I would like to write, and will not get the time to do so.

Time on two scales. I'm 74. I've been writing since I was 10. It's unlikely I will get another 64 years to write all the stories I have in me. That's a &nbs...

Quillian -30- SWOK

Nothing quite so proactive as kicking someone in the chops. :)

But Ptarro doesn't seem anxious to avenge his boss. Maybe he's sweet on our little demon gal?

Special FX -22- Crickets

We kept shooting until we started to lose the light, and Rusty called a halt a bit before seven. By then, I wasn’t on so much of a high and being glued into a costume had definitely begun to lose whatever appeal it might seem to have. I needed t...

Quillian -29- Tactical Error

I don't know where I came up with "Pretty Britches" as an endearment from, but you have to admit that normally Inkypus has a good view of them.

The backgrounds of the ruined church were something Daniel worked hard on. He even made a model o...

Quillian -28-Better Monsters R Us

The idea that Ydde would decide that Q had a key to letting him create better monters tickled me and this page is key to how the whole story worked out.

And I love the sassy Quillian in panel one. 

Daniel laid this page out with l...

Pete's Vagina -16- Sidelines

A couple of phone calls in the morning arranged things for me to take Tuesday afternoon off school, though Coach Wilson wanted me there for any part of practice I could make it to.

"We've got to get you and Dave synched up on the plays," he ...

Quillian -27- Good Guesser

Ydde kind of cracks me up. I imagine him as the nerdy little kid who modified all his toys so that the other kids did not want to play with his creepy things. :)

And I love Quillian's bored fleer in the last panel. Good job, Daniel!

Pickle

The crunchy adventures of Dilan Green

Sixteen the Hard Way -7- Hopgakes

Mom asked if I wanted to go home before the Hendersons came back. It was almost ten and they should be back soon. I didn’t want them to see me wearing a bra. So I nodded, “I wanna go home,” I said, crying again.

She cuddled me. “Okay...

Quillian -26- Tattletales

The boss villain finally shows up!

This story was actually inspired by one of the first Batman stories and the career of the first of Batman's recurring villains, Dr. Hugo Strange. Strange was in the business of creating monsters and crime w...

Pete's Vagina -15- Holding

I managed to escape without going back through the boys’ locker room; the coaches’ corridor has its own entrance and exit. Megan was waiting for me looking crisp and cute in her denim capris and a tied top, Elly May Clampett-style.

I had...

Quillian -25- View from a Menu

I actually wrote dialog for the monsters, repeated it to myself in monster voices until it lost meaning, then I wrote it down.

The careful placement of a word balloon at the right of panel two and Inkypus's comment about it was based on a jo...

The Little Sister by Erin Halfelven

Chapter 1

Carmody Jackson sat at the kitchenette table in the little apartment he shared with Ryan Poole. “I don’t understand it,” he said. “College wasn’t supposed to be just like high school.”

“Huh?” said Ryan, distra...

Quillian -24- Nearly Beloved

This page gave Daniel a bit of a problem. The script describes it as a meeting of nightmares and he asked me for more particulars. I said something like, I dunno, how about a cross between an ape and a warthog? He took it from there. :)

This...

Sixteen the Hard Way -6- Friday

We got loaded up with too much homework at school on Friday, but since I had a babysitting job for the evening, I thought I would just knock it out there and be free for the weekend. It wasn't interesting stuff, math exercises and a short history ...

The Reluctant Coed by Melanie Brown - coming soon on DopplerPress

There hasn't been anyone out there waiting on this one has there? :D

Probably going to be available on Kindle next week.

Choosing Romance by Maryanne Peters

This is Maryanne's fifteenth book for Doppler Press and the theme this time is making choices, specifically each of the main characters in the 18 stories chooses their fate and circumstances. 

Chaos Theory - Masks 18 - by Stickmaker - cover preview

This is a wild ride of a story as multiple heroes deal with some really hare-brained schemes by the bad guys. :)
