Stranded on the Houseboat
I was forty-four years old and wiping down pool filters on a Friday night.
Amateur fiction writer in California, keeping company with a Golden Retriever who demands long walks and strong coffee while writing. I mostly write in First Time and Erotic Couplings, especially stories built around the house sitter and people who work as grads or similar real-world trades. Constructive comments and favorites are always welcome. Ranked by how many readers finish them. Some are free to read in full; the rest open with a free preview.

I was forty-four years old and wiping down pool filters on a Friday night.

I'm Ida.
*I wanted to write a story where two people who are basically flirting through insults finally collide in a hot, dusty place.
