The Exclusive Lover

An Exclusive Friend

Svitlana

Despite the appeal I appear to generate among ladies on the dating app Charming Talks, I have eyes only for my friend from the Ukraine, who lives in Didcot, Oxfordshire.

Svitlana and I hit it off from the get go. Some of our chats involve sex chats, today's has been more about my upcoming neck opeartion to remove a limpoma.

Though I have over 60 ladies wishing to chat to me, I am only interested in Svitlana, most of the ladies live either in the USA, or the Far East

 Getting over Pamela Olsted

Cash Shortage

Sister Act

Recovering from knowing the scammer,Pamela Olsted, mentally was easy as we never met. Getting over the damage she did to my finances is something I may not recover from

My Granny Friend could be getting possessive

 Svitlana

Arousing

Openness can be arousing

I think my friend, Svitlana, could be getting possessive over me. I have done nothing to encourage this situation, other than be my normal pleasant, and respectful self.

Our online chats are venturing more into explicit sex these days. I have no objection to this, within reason. There is more to me than sexual attraction, as Svitlana is finding. She has said, she is attracted to my personality, as much as my my sexual attraction

Shadow of the Thin Man

 I am a shadow of my former self

The Thin man

Myrna Loy

I am a shadow of my former self, partially from a different style of cooking, and partially from a limpoma on my neck.

I am not bothered, I was overweight before, and being lighter means I am not such an issue for my friend, Svitlana, in Didcot, Oxfordshire to cope with.

Interest from Sloane Crosley

 More books raising interest

Interest in my Writing

The Chronicles of Mark Johnson

Among the stories which are gathering interest is my Award Winning eBook short story selection, The Chronicles of Mark Johnson.

This week Sloane Crosley asked a question I had been asked many times, how much of your character is based on yourself?

The truth is quite a lot, that is probably why Mark feels so real, I put a lot of my personality into him, most notably our distain for the cult of the celebrity.

At the moment, the story is not for sale, as I closed my Draft2Digital page, it never made money. The selection earned an an award in 2012, but never sold. My friend who died last year, asked if she could refine the few errors in editing the story, that began a 13-year friendship.

I planned to re-edit the story, but thought better

F.B.I. v Alan Place

 I got accused of being a scammer

Alan Place - Noir Writer

                                                                        It is a joke

Twice I was accused of being a scammer by young ladies online, both times I made the person look like a fool.

The first person was a young lady from San Diego, who said she was studying to be a nurse, in a university in Canada. I thought this odd, but not unusual, as many foreign students study where there are courses.

We'd been chatting for about two months, when she asked for $100 to pay for a flight home to see her mother, during half-term. When I refused, she said she'd report me to the F.B.I. as a scamer.

This was beyond ridiculous, I had to point out as I am in the UK, the F.B.I. has no authority to investigate me, unless I enter the USA. I then pointed out, they would have to get authority from the Police in the UK to proceed. This was assuming she could get the F.B.I. to take the case, as the ammount was so small, finally, I pointed out they would check our chat, to find she's been asking me for the money. After that, she backed down, and our chats dried up.

The second time was when a person said she'd report me as a scammer for not answering her video call, I pointed out I don't reply to people I don't know, and said, "If you do report me, they'll see, you asked me for the money as 10 minutes ago, I didn't know of you." Again, that was the end of the matter.
