Non-Universe Stories

Some of the stories listed below may have content that is objectionable.  Mainly, it would be sex, but there are some instances of language and violence.  Do not read if you are 18 or younger or have problems with any of those types of things.  I follow the Jixemitri rating system.

Collaborations
Turning Over a New Leaf - I had the honor and privilege to dip my toes into Mary C's marvelous Matt and Maddie universe. This is a story plunked in between Mysterious Visitor and Mystery Off Glen Road that takes a look at how all the Wheeler family adjusts to Jim's adoption and their new roles with each other. This is on Mary's site. You don't have to have read the rest of her universe to understand this story, but I would highly recommend you do! It's definitely worth the read!! Currently in progress!

Note:  This story is currently down from the Internet.  I am working on getting this back up soon!
