But before things can get too far, he breaks it off. She takes a shower, still high with arousal, and begins touching herself. The man catches her. Not yet, he says. They go on a bike ride, the seat pressed tightly between her legs. They pick up some fruit at the farmer's market and continue on their ride. Now let's do it, he says. The story is told in third person, present tense, which causes some problems - the stream-of-consciousness-like style doesn't work well in this case. (I've noticed stream-of-consciousness almost never works, unless in very small doses.) There were also some continuity problems - if I'm parsing it right, the woman has an orgasm while riding her bicycle and while kissing the man, which means she's either a circus performer or a major hazard on the bike trail. The paragraphs are also so long that it is hard to read. But it's still a cute little idea for a story, and with a ton of polish, could be turned into something pretty good. Rating: * * --- {ASSM} (NEW) The Other Alternative MF(M) Sven the Elder By Sven the Elder <sven_the_elder@ntlworld.com> http://assm.asstr-mirror.org/Year2002/35914 A fatherly writer of porn stories is corresponding in email with Jack and Shiela, who are seriously pursuing a threesome so Sheila can experience two men at once. Sven gives them all kinds of advice - he's thought about these things a lot, apparently - but the lad they pick to play out the scenario turns out to be a bust. So Jack and Sheila turn to their other alternative. And the other alternative is Sven, the fatherly writer of porn stories. They get together and make the couple's fantasy a reality! There are a handful of interesting issues raised in this story that you don't often see in ASSM MMF stories. First, there is some analysis about what the turn-on is for the husband of the couple. Second, there is some uneasy musings about whether this is a gay or bisexual experience for the previously straight men. And last, after the threesome has gone off without a hitch, what do you do next? And those issues are the most interesting part of the story, especially the last, which made for a very interesting ending. The sex itself is first class, and the writing is very clean. My only criticism: in the opening email exchange, Sven preached too much on "how to do it." But this is a very good two-man one-woman sex story. Rating: * * * * --- {ASSM} Erotic Encounter By John Capone <ecrush@hotmail.com> http://assm.asstr-mirror.org/Year2002/35915 This "Erotic Encounter" has a lot of similarities to the story I just reviewed, "The Other Alternative." This one takes place in India, where Sujeet is married to Pooja. Sujeet's college buddy, Naveen, is coming to visit for an evening, and the married couple makes up a bed for him in their tiny apartment. Shapely Pooja is forced to work late, however, and before Naveen gets a chance to meet her, he falls asleep after a long day. When Pooja returns, she sees Naveen sleeping, his sleepwear gaping open and his impressive erection in full view. Pooja needs a little dinner before she can come to bed, and you probably have a good idea why her late meal takes a little longer than usual! The writing in this story isn't as good as "The Other Alternative", but it is still not bad. It is also closer to the cliche wife-watching voyeur story you read in ASSM, although the Bombay setting adds a tiny amount of exotic interest. But for a cliche plot, it's a decent story.

Sally is quite talented, having learned everything about blowjobs from her Aunt Margie. Not that Sally is all that special - *all* the secretaries at this company's branch office give good head. And the executives like it that way, because blowjobs are lot more fun than actually doing their real jobs. But then Old Man Grafton pays them a visit, and suddenly all those lost contracts and padded expense accounts and embezzled funds seem like they could be a big problem. The new senior VP who Grafton brings along promises to shake things up. And she does, in more ways than one! This story is coded "humor", but other than the absurdity of the story line, I didn't find the story particularly humorous. But I still enjoyed it. The prose is polished, the oral sex is very nice, and the farcical picture of fun-loving corporate corruption is well-drawn. Even the ending is nice. Because the jokes weren't that funny for me, they detracted from the story, but I know humor can be very personal. If Kellis tickles your funny bone, you'll probably like this a lot. And even if he doesn't, you'll still enjoy reading this story. Rating: * * * * --- {ASSM} Asiafuck (MFF, FF, asian, voy, preg) By Phoebe and Michael <phoenlxarlzona@aol.com> http://assm.asstr-mirror.org/Year2002/35936 A man and his kinky wife Cheryl own a business, and they hire a sexy young Korean woman for the front office. When Min Young-ju makes a serious banking error, she promises to do anything to make up for it. Fortunately for our narrator, his sexy wife Cheryl decides that means Min Young-ju should be punished by fucking the boss. Oh, sure, this is a dumb story. But it's comfortably written and has a nice pace. And it's short, so it doesn't overstay its welcome. As a quickie male-female-female fantasy, it's OK.
