I have provided here a brief introduction to each of the stories I
have written, including story codes, when the story was written, and
a rough indication of its length.

Special story codes: In place of the generic "swing" I use "share" or
"swap" for three-way and paired-off sex respectively. I also use a few
nonstandard terms whose meaning should be obvious.

Comments are always appreciated, whether positive or negative. Send
them to:
          shattims@yahoo.com

Since I get lots of spam on that email address, I will be much more
likely to look at your note if you include the name of one of my
stories on the subject line.

Don't worry, your email address will go no further than the Yahoo mail
system, not even onto my hard drive. I will never use it for anything
except possibly a reply to you.

question.txt        A Personal Question                     Nov 2010
(MF swap)           The sex was good, but neither of them was really
11,600 words        happy with the marriage. It turns out her cousin had
                    an idea for a way to spice things up. It involved
                    asking a question.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
bro4ever.txt        Brothers Are Forever                    Nov 2009
(M+F, cheat, share, Pete and his Mexican wife Maria opened their home
 preg)              to Pete's brother Joe when Joe's marriage broke up.
18,700 words        None of them had any idea what the effects of that
                    simple gesture would be, though it didn't take
                    either Joe or his sister-in-law long to discover
                    they were playing with fire. Curiously, a blah
                    marriage also caught fire in what ensued.

sleeper.txt         Sleeper                                 Jul 2008
(MF, oral, swap,    I couldn't believe what my staid middle-aged wife
slow)               did on our vacation, but considering what I did at
10,900 words        the same time, I was in no position, or mood, to
                    make a stink about it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
bornagin.txt        Born Again                              Jul 2008
(MF, size, Fsolo,   A woman who has just discovered she is a horny slut
toys)               struggles with her new passions and how she should
3,700 words         deal with her husband.

                    Writers of erotic stories often, quite
                    intentionally, try to leave their readers
                    fantasizing about what might happen next in the
                    lives of the characters they have been reading
                    about. I've had those fantasies many times after
                    reading a story that really turned me on, and on a
                    few occasions I have even written down my "after
                    that" fantasy. This is one of those occasions; I
                    hope the original author doesn't mind.

                    The inspiration for this story is one published in
                    the Kristen Archives by "MillerTime." His story,
                    that he called "Wanna Bet," was written from the
                    husband's perspective. This is the wife's view.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
paradise.txt        Quest for Paradise                      Jun 2008
(MF, wl, cheat)     The story of a young woman's search for happiness,
16,700 words        and the erotic paths that led her down.

                    I mostly write stroke stories, but this one is
                    intended to be a bit more serious, though there
                    are certainly descriptions of sex here.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
favor2.txt          A Favor For My Friend - Chapter 2       Apr 2008
favor3.txt                                - Chapter 3
(MF, MFM, Fsolo,    This story is actually about two couples, and it
wl, share, cheat)   turns out much to everyone's surprise that all
13,700 words        four of them end up getting a favor.

                    These two chapters are an optional continuation to
                    the original story, which you should read first.
                    See May 2007 below.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
playtime.txt        Playtime is Over                        Mar 2008
(M+F, MF, wl,       "Playing the Advantage" (Dec 2004) covered only
cheat, slut)        the first of four rather special poker sessions
15,300 words        that four devious husbands had planned, and I had
                    requests for follow-up stories. The story I have
                    included here is only one of many variations I
                    have created. If you want to see the others you
                    will have to look at the interactive story on my
                    web page.

                    This is a continuation to "Playing the
                    Advantage", which you should read first.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
awakened.txt        Awakened Passion                        Sep 2007
(M+F, wl, exhib,    They were just friends, she thought. But in his
cheat)              time of need she discovered they were much more
13,100 words        than that.

                    OK, so even in my stories the husband may
                    occasionally feel really cheated. He wasn't
                    getting totally left out, but he sure as hell
                    didn't like what he discovered.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
favor4my.txt        A Favor For My Friend                   May 2007
(MF, MFM, wl,       This is actually about two couples, and it turns
Fsolo, share,       out that everyone gets a favor except the person
cheat)              who asked for one.
9,500 words.
                    The story here was written to stand alone, but I
                    later wrote a sequel which is listed above (Apr
                    2008) as Chapters 2 and 3.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
motivate.txt        Motivation                              Apr 2007
(M+F, mast, mc,     A couple is manipulated into a sexual lifestyle
voy, slut)          that neither of them would have previously dreamed
5800 words          of for themselves or each other.

                    This story was suggested by a reader who appeared
                    to be looking for stories involving a woman being
                    raped by various men with her boyfriend's consent.
                    I softened that somewhat, but I still wasn't
                    completely comfortable with the result. The reader
                    who sent me the ideas was thrilled with what I
                    produced, and perhaps others will also like it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
handygam.txt        The Handyman Gambit                     Apr 2007
(MF, swap, fat)     Two somewhat mismatched couples find new passion
8,700 words         when they trade partners.

                    I hope you aren't turned off by the "fat" keyword.
                    It's true that obesity has quite a bit to do with
                    the story, but not in the sense one most often
                    finds in such stories, where a guy has a fetish
                    for fat women.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
skicabin.txt        Playing Around at the Ski Cabin         Oct 2006
(MF, wl, swap,      Take three couples away from their kids and the
size, game)         summer heat and put them together in an isolated
8,200 words         but luxurious chalet in the mountains for a week.
                    All sorts of things might happen.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
foururge.txt        Four New Urges                          Oct 2006
(MF, wl, swap)      Two couples, close friends, and all it takes is a
7,900 words         spark to ignite the fire.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
hawaiian.txt        Hawaiian Heat                           Jul 2006
(MF,M+F, swap,      Sometimes a trial swapping session doesn't end up
slut, size, rom)    the way you would expect.
12,400 words
                    This started out as a little swapping story, but
                    it got away from me. It isn't really about
                    swapping at all, and it's not little compared with
                    many of my stories. Keywords "slut" and "rom"
                    don't normally apply to the same story, but I
                    assure you they are both appropriate here. In fact
                    there is an unusually wide range of emotions
                    involved.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
married.txt         But I'm Married                         Jul 2006
(MFM, oral, share)  Take a bachelor who has a firm rule that he never
8,200 words         flirts with married women, put him together with a
                    faithful wife who is devoted to her husband, and
                    what do you get? Fiery passion, in this case.

                    Both of them are trying to desperately to control
                    their emotions, but will they succeed? And what
                    about her beloved hubby?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
onlygame.txt        It's Only a Game                        Nov 2005
(MF, swap)          Two couples get carried away playing an adult
6,600 words         version of a silly children's game.

                    The title is meant to be taken literally. There's
                    not much plot here, but this game that I invented
                    many years ago seems to have some richly erotic
                    possibilities.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
behappen.txt        This Can't be Happening                 Nov 2005
(MF, cheat?,        I watched and listened in dismay as my wife was
nosex?)             drawn away from me by my boss. Would I ever get
1,800 words         her back?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
advantge.txt        Playing the Advantage                   Dec 2004
(M+F, game, size)   Who knows what four married guys might cook up if
5,100 words         you put them together without their wives around.
                    Now, replace one husband with his wife, and see
                    what they can do with the recipe.

                    I wrote this story to stand alone, but later added
                    a sequel. See "Playtime is Over" (Mar 2008)

----------------------------------------------------------------------
makelady.txt        How to Make a Lady                      Mar 2004
(MF, wl, share)     A middle-aged man with a frigid wife decides on
4,100 words         desperate measures.

IceStorm.txt        Ice Storm                               Sep 2010

(MF, swap, cheat,   A swapping experiment that doesn't go at all the
oral, anal)         way the four participants expected it to go.

8,000 words         I found a version of this story on a very
                    disreputable site - one of those where they steal
I wish I knew who   stories, strip off author information and make
the original author them available for "free", along with payloads
was so I could ask  that they try to slip onto your computer without
for permission to   you noticing. Because of that I refuse to tell
use his work.       you where I got it, and I am unable to tell you
                    who wrote it. That latter is a real shame,
                    because this was a very well written story.

                    My only disappointment was an ending that I
                    considered to be weak. As sometimes happens, I
                    set about trying to remedy that, and aproximately
                    doubled the length of the story. Looking at what
                    I wrote I can see that I didn't come anywhere
                    close to the first author's literary style, so I
                    have broken it into an original chapter, where I
                    made only minor editorial changes, and an added
                    chapter. You will discover that the sexual
                    activity is muted in Chapter 1, and goes into
                    overdive in Chapter 2. That, however, is due less
                    to change of author than to the state of affairs
                    I was given to work with.

bornagin.txt        Born Again                              Jul 2008

(MF, size, Fsolo,   A woman who has just discovered she is a horny
toys)               slut struggles with her new passions and how she
                    should deal with her husband.
3,700 words
                    Writers of erotic stories often, quite
A sequel, only the  intentionally, try to leave their readers
characters are      fantasizing about what might happen next in the
borrowed            lives of the characters they have been reading
                    about. I've had those fantasies many times after
                    reading a story that really turned me on, and on
                    a few occasions I have even written down my
                    "after that" fantasy. This is one of those
                    occasions; I hope the original author doesn't
                    mind.

                    The inspiration for this story is one published
                    by "MillerTime" in the Kristen Archives. His
                    story, that he called "Wanna Bet." was written
                    from the husband's perspective. This is the
                    wife's view.


----------------------------------------------------------------------
SeductStory.txt     Seduction by Story                      Jan 2008
(MF, wife, wl,      A single man tricks a married woman into
swap)               re-enacting a seduction story with him in front of
13,900 words        her husband. The time she spends with him revs up
                    her sexual appetite and changes the marriage
                    dramatically.

Published with      The original version of this story was published
permission of       by Scorpio00155 at storiesonline.net. I found his
original author     description of the seduction one of the hottest I
                    have ever read, and I have kept it with only minor
                    changes. I was much less taken with the second
                    half of the story as he told it, and have written
                    an entirely different, and somewhat longer,
                    conclusion.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
betuwife.txt        You Bet Your Wife                       Aug 2007
(MF, cheat, rom,    A shy young man tricks a couple into letting the
slow)               wife spend a weekend with him, then slowly and
14,700 words        romantically seduces her.

                    This was first posted in Jan 2007 on ASSTR by
                    "Hungry Guy", but he has told me it was really one
                    of his earliest stories. He made a few updates,
                    including a change of location to the US, before
                    posting it. The story as posted was filled with
                    British terms that would never have been used by
                    anyone living and working in the United States.

Published with      I Americanized the terms then started reworking
permission of       the content. I kept the New Jersey section with
original author     few changes except for one rearrangement leading
                    to a new scene at the end of that section. But I
                    provided a different version of the "bet" part of
                    the story, and I rewrote most of the ending,
                    making it somewhat longer.

promote.txt         A Promotion and a Bonus                 Aug 2007
(MF, wife, mast)    A young wife finds her husband a terrible
8600 words          disappointment in bed, and discovers elsewhere
                    what she is missing, while at the same time her
                    husband discovers what he really wants.

Unable to contact   The first half of this story was written by
original author,    Kristen Kathleen Becker as "Consenting Adults".
but authorship of   Her story was superbly written, and I loved it,
chapters clearly    but it ended on a downbeat note just when I hoped
noted in the text   it would soar even higher. I have kept her story
                    as Chapter 1, with only a few grammatical
                    corrections I am sure she would approve of.

                    My contribution is a continuation of her story
                    which I have provided as a second chapter.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
convince.txt        Convincing our Wives                    Oct 2006
(MF, voy, swap)     Two guys want to have a wife swapping session, but
7100 words          their wives will have nothing to do with it.

                    This story was inspired by one by an anonymous
                    author that I found it in Kristen's Collection. It
                    was called simply "Wife Swapping".

Unable to contact   The original author's solution to the problem was
original author who to get both wives so drunk they didn't know who
was listed only as  was fucking them. That struck me as about as much
"anonymous"         fun as fucking a blowup sex doll, so I came up
                    with a very different solution. I have kept the
                    first three sections of the original story,
                    heavily edited, but the last 70% of the story as
                    it appears here is my own.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
hospice.txt         Hospice Care                            Aug 2006
(MF, interr, size)  A pretty blonde wife volunteers for a Hospice Care
7400 words          program to help ease the pain of a terminally ill
                    black man. She does much more than she expected.

Unable to contact   The version of this story I read was by "Dick
original author,    Coxxx" in Kristen's Collection. The story had an
no email provided   interesting premise, and it started well. But I
                    found the second half preposterous, as an uptight
                    church-going lady quickly became a total slut
                    with no apparent motivation.

                    I kept the first part with minor changes except
                    for deleting a few paragraphs, then threw out all
                    but a few phrases from the second half. My version
                    is more than twice as long as the original.

marriane.txt        Marriane's Day                          Apr 2005
(M+F, wife, size)   A wife is seduced by two of her husband's buddies
7400 words          while he watches, incredulous. It is a life-
                    changing event for her, and for him as well.

                    This story was posted in ASSTR by Arjun Mafaaz as
                    "Just another day". I found his story super hot,
Unable to contact   but the punctuation and run-on paragraphs bugged
original author,    me. After I cleaned that up I felt it needed a
email no longer     number of other small tweaks, and one significant
valid               change in the order of events. Then I decided to
                    add an epilog, which put a somewhat different cast
                    on the story. Honestly, however, this one is still
                    mostly Arjun's.

perfectv.txt        The Perfect Vacation                    Apr 2005
(M+F, wl, swap)     Two couples vacationing together become
5100 words          increasingly turned on by each other's spouses,
                    until the inevitable happens.

                    Published by Mannydcamp in Kristen's collection as
Published with      "Our First Swing". The title seemed strange to me,
permission of       since the couples involved didn't really (quite)
original author     have sex with anyone other than their spouses. I
                    did like the premise and the way the story was
                    written, but I wanted more. Thus, after some
                    grammatical cleanup, I extended it by a couple of
                    pages to become a real swapping story.
