Part 1.
Lesley was sitting on his front porch when he noticed that a new family was moving in next door. He observed there was a handsome young man moving in with his parents. He was attracted to the muscular young man. He was fascinated with the way the sun gleamed on his platinum hair.

He kept sitting on his porch, wondering if when the new family was finished unloading the truck if he should go over to introduce himself when he heard the new boy shout out.

Fall of the Witch


Fall of the Witch

by Lesley Renee Charles

Kyle was deeply dreaming of being with Lucy, the love of his life. They were in a field full of daisies. He was holding her in his arms, and enjoying the feel of her there. He felt so protective.

Suddenly a strange voice called to him. “Come with me Kyle you are needed to be a witness at a trial.” As he heard this voice a strange robed figure approached him, beckoning him to come with her.

Womanly Chapter 10

Chapter 10

Luke decided to take Kylie out to an exclusive restaurant. He wanted the date to be special as he was falling in love with her. She was a beautiful woman who was confident in herself. In fact she reminded him of Lucy, but not as resentful of men.

After dinner, Luke asked Kylie if she wanted to go for a walk in the rose gardens, that were in full bloom. Kylie agreed and they strolled off.

“Luke, I am enjoying being with you. You are a wonderful guy.” Kylie thought to herself that Luke was how she should have been when she was Kyle.

Womanly Chapter 8

Chapter 8

Saturday night arrived. Kylie was in her bedroom putting on the finishing touches to her make-up. She smoothed out her light blue skirt and navy top. She dressed casual but nice as she wanted to make a good first impression on her first date as a girl. She was nervous about it and prayed that Kevin would not be a jerk like Kyle used to be.

She heard the doorbell and heard her father say, “So you are going to take the bitch out?” Kylie cringed; how could a father call his own daughter a bitch?

100 kudos for a story

Thanks to all of you, who have read and liked Womanly Chapter 1. I am glad that you like this story and I am very grateful for this landmark. This is my first story to hit a hundred. I have developed as a writer and I am sure I have a lot more improving to do. Thank you for putting up with my stories and hopefully they entertain you.

Womanly Chapters 5 and 6

Chapter 5

“Get up, girl and get my breakfast ready. Don't forget you have a lot of household chores to do. After all you are a woman and have to take care of my house.”

Kylie tried to shut out the drone of her father's yelling. She knew she was going to have a hard time now, knowing how her father was before and now she was what her father felt was inferior.

Womanly Chapters 3 and 4

Chapter 3

Kyle started to enter his room, but before switching on the light, he saw something move in the corner of his eye. He quickly switched on the light. He saw Gwendolyn standing there. He was starting to feel anxious as he had dismissed her as being crazy.

“Hello Kyle, are you ready to embrace your new existence for the next year? Please come over to your mirror so that you can see what you are now.”

Womanly Chapter 2

Chapter 2

Kyle strode into the auditorium where the prom was being held with his date, Emily Rose Smythe on his arm. He treated her like the eye candy he believed her to be. She was silently fuming over the treatment and could not believe the amount of disrespect he had for woman. She just wanted to get through this evening with the minimal amount of fuss. She regretted her decision to come here with Kyle; she thought that the stories weren't true. He ignored her all evening and left her to her own devices.

This is the beginning of a story I have in mind and this is a rough draft which I may change as I see fit. Hope you like it.


Womanly
By Lesley Renee Charles


Chapter 1

Kyle Goodman strolled into his high school, in a relatively good mood. He was joking with his friends and clowning around when a strange black haired girl bumped into him. This set off one of his infamous tirades against women. Kyle was very misogynistic as a result of his mother leaving him with his extremely misogynistic father.

My Best Friend's Girl Revised

I am incorporating suggestions made by Angela Rasch. She helped me edit this so I am thanking her and using her suggestions to make this better. I think it is even better thanks to her. The first chapter is all her suggestions so I am giving credit where credit is due. I will use her suggestions for the next story I write as it does help to make it better. Also I cut the getting ready for the prom chapter and turned it into a paragraph inserted before Leon arrives. I was not happy with the chapter and felt it slowed down the action of the story. I hope you like this better.

How does my new posting read?

I have combined From Knight and Courtship and I think it combined well but I am wondering how other readers feel about it? Does it flow together well since they were written several years apart? Do they fit well together? If you read it please give me your criticism. I am thinking of publishing it on Amazon kindle and want to make sure that it is as perfect as I can get it. Any thoughts on it will be accepted as I am my own worst critic.

From Knight To Dawn

I have combined all of From Knight To Dawn and the Courtship of Dawn together. I would like to get it ready to publish and I would like some one to proofread and/or edit it with me. I want to make sure everything makes sense and I am not a good judge of my writing. If anyone cares to volunteer either comment here or send me a message here. Thank you.

Finishing up stories

In the next few days, like I have already done for Alexandra's Story is to put a summary of where I see the story going. In time, and if the inspiration returns to finish them then I will expand it. I want the readers to feel a sense of the ending.

A Very Special Valentine



A Very Special Valentine

by Lesley Renee Charles

I was getting ready for a date with my favorite Valentine, Ciaran. We were getting real close since Christmas where I quite literally crashed in front of his house. He let me stay there for at least a week. I discovered that he was a sweet man, the first man I ever dated as I was just discovering myself and who I wanted to be.

Heart attack.

On August 26, I suffered a heart attack, which I did not recognize as one as it had none of signs. Just a stiffness in the chest which I thought was part of the bronchitis I thought I had. I called the EMT on the 30 because of shortness of breath. I was sitting in the ER waiting to them to discharge me when the doctor came and told me they thought I had a heart attack. The next week they took all kinds of tests, found that the valves were good, most of it was viable the only area was the small area in the middle bottom of the heart which was gone.

finding a story series.

I am trying to find a story series here on this site. I can't remember the author's name but it dealt with a teen who transitioned, and got some grief from his dad, older brother and grandfather, but they all came around eventually. She spent a lot of time dressing up at her grandmother's house. Also the grandmother gave the older brother a bit of petticoat discipline and he was tormented by his friends and defended the younger brother. I would be very grateful is somebody could help me find this story.
