Creative Writing > Short Stories Short stories: Fear: 1 of 69

"So, how was the tennis lesson?" Michael asked with an obscene smirk on his face. He raised the glass of iced tea to his lips and watched over the rim as Gina narrowed her eyes. Oh, but how he loved getting her all riled up! Now, if he could do that in her boudoir he'd be all set. "I should smack you upside the head for sett...
Home & Garden > Weeds & Pests True gardening stories: The worst pest experience: 1 of 48

Ah, nature in all it's forms! Such delight, such majesty, such wonder, such a pain in the you-know-what if they come between you and your idea of a perfect garden. Yes, I've had the attack of the Japanese beetles (they don't sing nearly as good as John, Paul, George and Ringo.) They gorge themselves on my Hibiscus leaving sk...

Nick had warned her. Too bad nobody warned him. "You're playing with fire, Honey. You might get burned if you don't back off soon,"he told her wickedly. To his surprise Mandy merely smiled and replied, "I won't get burned. I'm not going to hell and I'm not gonna let you go there either." For some reason this ticked him off. ...

The moonlight coming in through the slight part in the curtained windows illuminated little in the spacious, elaborately decorated room but enough. Jameel’s exotic features, her almond shaped eyes, the thick fringe of lashes brushing silky soft cheeks, that adorable nose that so often crinkled with laughter, those deli...
Arts & Humanities > Writing at Helium How do I get my Helium articles rated to the top?: 1 of 34

Helium, being a rather eclectic place for sundry topics, has perhaps by design or out of necessity lured an audience of similarly eclectic writers. As these writers are also the ones doing the rating, articles have to appeal to a vast audience. No two raters will rate an article with the same outlook. Our articles therefore ...

"Emily! I gotta get Emily!" the distraught mother screamed as two firefighters held her back. "Where is she?" Richard shouted. He could barely make himself heard over the screeching sirens, over the bellows from Captain Frankfort and the roar of the flames eating the building in front of them. "She's upstairs, last room at t...

"I have to break up with him," she muttered to her reflection in the foggy mirror. Jolie felt so guilty she couldn't take it anymore. It was like a constant stomach ache, a churning feeling eating her up from the inside out. She would have to tell Dustin. It scared her to think what he would say, what he would do. Would he b...

The Perfect Date. Throughout the first date each question Epiphany asked Shane he answered with a carelessly, unrestrained, honest manner she only ever had seen in very small children. He seemed honest to a fault. Perhaps he didn’t know how to lie or when it would be more prudent to do so. This charmed her as did...

"So, tell me about your wife," Kelly said abruptly. "What do you want to know?" Ray replied evasively. He wasn't certain he liked this at all. It had been okay when she spoke of her dead husband but talking about Roni's demise somehow felt too raw even after more than two years. "Well, for one thing, what was her name?" "Rho...

"I still don't get that song." Jerry said as he tossed a stone into the water making it skip three times before it sank. "What's to get?" Mary asked bewildered. She propped herself up on her elbow, shading her eyes with her hand as she looked up at him. "Pretty self-explanatory. He says two out of three ain't bad and she dis...
