Synopsis: Today is my 26th birthday and to celebrate it I'm posting a
collection of 13 short stories on a variety of subjects which will
doubtless shed some meager light on the author's distorted world view.
Each story is self-contained in its own chapter. See the Prologue for
the Table of Contents, Story Codes, and individual Synopsis for each
story.

Monsters in My Bed and Other Stories
by Rachael Ross


Prologue



This collection comprises thirteen short stories on a variety of
topics, everything from politics to religion to romance and fantasy.
It's my birthday gift to myself and like other collections I've done,
I'll probably get a few dozen copies printed for friends and family.
It's my fourth such endeavor (or fifth if you include Indian Summer)
and probably the strangest in terms of diversity and themes. That's
what I like though and predictability is the enemy! Fight it wherever
you can and the world will be a better place. And anyway, as a
collection it's really intended for those few readers who like my
stories in particular, new readers and those who are wary of my
writing might have a hard time getting into this presentation format.
I know it isn't what you're used to. Sorry about that.

The stories are arranged by chapter and this prologue will have to
serve as the table of contents. Story codes and a brief synopsis are
provided for your convenience. I've tried to keep the coding simple
and accurate, even to the point of 'spoiling' some of the plots. None
of these stories are intended to titillate the reader with graphic
sexual depictions, nor have I attempted to shock or bludgeon anyone
with gratuitous violence. But you will find some sex...I have so
little self-control! Anyway, what you will find here are those
elements necessary to the individual narratives and I hope you'll
understand that. I have faith in you.

I'm not sure it would be wise to read them all in one sitting, too
much rache can be bad for your health. But I'll leave it up to you
anyway. Like I could stop you? I did put a little thought into the
sequence though, you know, just for contrast and looking for the up'n
down sort of ride. These are very gentle stories for the most part
though, like I said so maybe that doesn't matter so much.

A final note: The last story here, "Mais ou sont les neiges d'antan?"
was originally written as a play in autumn 2002 although some scenes
were slightly changed for obvious reasons, and much descriptive
narration was subsequently added in 2004 when it became the short
story you see here. Some minor editing has been done in 2008 for this
posting. Everything else here was largely written with the idea in
mind of creating this collection over the last six months or so.

Best always,
Rachael Ross : July 27 1982-2008 ~ Twenty-six years and not a day of
peace...Allah Akbar!


====================================-

Table of Contents



Forward - by Bring Your Own Bob (True, Rom, Petting, Cheat) A would be
literary critic and psuedo-academic discusses the social impact of
Rachael Ross and her short fiction on modern society. (I tried to get
George Will to write it, but he took one look at "Nothing a Plumber"
and I was promptly put on the Secret Service Watch List. See if I ever
suck his cock again! Old boyfriends are the worst!* -rr)

Ch.01 - The Last Married Man On Earth (FF/M, Humor) Life as a door-to-
door salesman isn't easy for a man devoted to his wife. A tongue-in-
cheek look at the sort of porn we all love to complain about. Or at
least I do, when I'm not writing it.

Ch.02 - Optimism (F/F, Romantic) Two young women romantically involved
struggle with coming out to their families during a college holiday
break. Contrary to popular belief this really is my favorite sort of
story and I've written a bazillion of them.

Ch.03 - Anarchy in My Heart (M/F, No Sex, Romantic) The 99% true story
of how my husband talked me into it. Only the names are changed to
protect the guilty. Of course, looking back through the rosy lens of
time can be a little distorting, his version is slightly
different...But don't listen to him!

Ch.04 - Nothing A Plumber (Politics, No Sex) When politics and
plumbing meet, it's business as usual. I have to assume that things
like this happen all the time, which is cynical, I know. I'd apologize
for that but I'm an American!

Ch.05 - I Dream of...John? (M/F, Fantasy, No Sex) When a young woman
decides to wax her brand new car, strange things happen. I wish I had
a car. I wish I knew how to drive.

Ch.06 - Allah Akbar (M/F, Implied Violence, No Sex) My only comment on
the ongoing 'War Against Terror' such as it's being waged today. This
is a heavy story, but it is in fact a 'story' with a plot and
everything, viewer discretion advised.

Ch.07 - Broken (M/f, Incest, Humor) Can a teenage girl named Venny
convince her Daddy to connect their home to the internet? I called
this 'Doodlin' originally because I actually wrote it on like 3
napkins while I was waiting for lunch at the absolute slooooweeeest
restaurant in the world.

Ch.08 - Monsters in My Bed (m/f, Erotic Horror, Incest, First) A young
girl finds herself terrified in the middle of the night by a thunder
storm and is comforted by her older brother. Being something of a
Gothic piece, this isn't really a graphic 'gotcha!' story, my take on
horror is more subtle than Freddy and Jason, et al. Or maybe not.

Ch.09 - Friendship (F/F, No Sex) Childhood friends Jennifer and Susan
reminisce about old times after a long absence. Again, writing two
women who may or may not be romantically involved is my comfort zone,
it's in my well of experience. Men find me confrontational for some
reason and I tend to abuse them as a species.

Ch.10 - New World Order (f/everybody, No Sex, Political Satire, Humor)
When a high school girl named Tiffany unexpectedly becomes President
of the United States, she decides it's high time the country gets off
its butt and starts kicking some! This is just fun. I like being silly
and it takes the edge off.

Ch.11 - Teasing (M/f, Romance, Incest) Bobby gives Carol a ride home
after a party and the two of them engage in a philosophical discussion
on the nature of teasing and non-verbal miscommunication. Now this is
exactly what I mean about confrontational.

Ch.12 - Girl on the Bus (M/f, Public, Interracial, First) A fifteen
year old black girl has her first sexual experience at the hands of a
white? stranger on a crowded bus. A long time fantasy of mine, I think
if I'd had a choice, this is how I'd have wanted to lose my virginity.
It's kind of a romance, actually

Ch.13 - Mais ou sont les neiges d'antan? (M/F, Fantasy, Romance,
Religion) Cain and Abel are two brothers in search of a wife. Could an
angel named Lilith be the answer to their prayers? A lot of people
think I'm going to hell for stuff like this. If I do, I'll send a
postcard. This story has appeared before at ASSM, NB, and CnX, among
other places.




Thank you for reading and I hope you will find one or more of these
stories entertaining and enjoyable.

* Pun Intended!
