"Teddy? Can I speak to you a second?" Stella whispered, pulling him aside.
"Of course!"
"You know the way we... you know... did it last week?"
Laurie narrowed his eyes. "Yes?"
"I'm pregnant and it's all your fault." Stella slapped her husbands chest.
"Ow- wait what?"
Stella nodded, before being swept off her feet and into the arms of her favourite dark haired man. (Don't tell Dennis)
"I'm going to be a father?" He whispered, his voice full of happiness.
"Yeah, you are." Stella laughed.
"We have to tell everyone."

"I hate you!" Stella screamed at Laurie, sweaty and crying.
"Love you too! It's all going to be okay, Elle. It's all going to be fine."
"I'm never having sex with you again! You're a total hedge creeper!" Stella exclaimed.
"Stella!" Marmee scolded.
_____________
"Oh my God!" Stella whispered, the baby small and resemblant to a potato.
"Come here!" Stella urged Teddy.
"You don't hate me anymore, huh?" He whispered.
"Never did." She grinned.
"Have you decided on a name yet?" Marmee asked the new parents.
"Elizabeth Louisa Laurence. Bess for short." Teddy said, and Stella looked at Beth with a small smile on her face.

"I can't believe you wrote a book about us!" Amy laughed excitedly.
"Jesus, Meg how did you do this with two of these potatoes?" Jo handed her niece back to the mother.
"I can't believe she left me the house!" Stella exclaimed, referring to her recently deceased aunt. "I thought she hated me!"
"She could hate you but still leave you the house." Jo suggested.
"What about you and John?" Stella looked to Meg.
"No, I don't need a grand estate." Meg laughed.

"Amy? What about you and Dennis?"
Amy shook her head. Stella looked at Beth, but she quickly turned it down.
"Right then. I want to do something that will make Aunt March turn in her grave."
"I wouldn't mind it." Meg giggled.
Stella looked at her daughter. "What do you- a school!"
Stella looked at Jo excitedly, then she exclaimed again, "A school!"
"A school?" Meg asked.
"Yes! I'd like to open a school! We never had a proper school and now there are women's colleges opening- there should be a school! For Bess, and for Daisy."
"And what will Demi do?"
"I'll open a school for girls and boys both."
______________
Dear Beth,
I'm so glad you're having fun at music school! You'll have to tell me more about this fellow you met, you can't just leave me hanging.
I can't wait for your return, Bess misses her aunt.
With love,
Stels.

The Silver Mana - Book 1: Initiate
I used to be a healthy, young guy with a normal life - I had a career planned in professional soccer, a girlfriend, lots of hobbies, and loads of fun. Until the accident. Which changed my life. A few years later I had adjusted to my new reality, adjusted to being in a wheelchair, adjusted to having someone take care of me 24/7. And then the world changed. Old people and kids did not make it. And neither was I supposed to make it. But never count me out. If anything, I am tenacious. This new world was different. People could do magic. And there were monsters. And what about me? I had mana as well, silver mana. Which no one else seemed to have. The only problem was, I did not know what to do with it. Until I really needed to. Author's note: This is the rewrite of Silver Mana. The first bunch of chapters (until I will have caught up to level 2 of the dungeon) should be quite familiar to people that have read the original. There are some changes in content, but the story follows the original fairly closely for at least the first 150-200 pages. Most of the changes are in the writing, and some of the details of how things work. A few of the side characters get a bit more attention too. Some general comments to avoid disappointment: 1. The MC likes to swear. If you object to reading the word "fuck" at least once and usually multiple times each chapter don't read the book. "Fuck" is such a great, allencompassing word... fuck that; what the fuck?; fuck me! Fuck! one word, expressing so many nuances. And, frankly, the people I know that use fuck as a swear word.. they often use it a lot. 2. If you are looking for immediate progression, rapid advancement of the story, etc.... read another book. This one takes a bit. 3. I am NOT Pirateaba (who is writing The Wandering Inn) or anyone close to that level of productivity. If you expect to read 10k words every 3 days, or even just once a week... sorry. I've got a busy life. This is for fun, I have no patreon, paypal, anything, so I write when it is fun and however much is fun. Not more. And sometimes that turns out to be a decent amount, sometimes nothing. I have another book (Marrow) so that complicated things - basically I switch between the two whenever the muse strikes me.

Silver Fox and the Western Hero
Author's Note. This is book 7! Please feel free to hop on and enjoy! If you find you like my writing style, I hope you'll check out the first 6 books, all available to read on Kindle Unlimited, link below!) Alex was dying, and all the millions his father had left him meant nothing. The life he had been so eager to embrace, to do the memory of his father proud, would soon come to an end. Cancer. That ugly, terrible word. He had tried to be strong for his mother, even when the treatments left him violently ill, his body wracked with pain, his friends and even his girlfriend leaving him almost as fast as his once impressive physique wasted to nothing under the ravages of his illness. And just when he thought all hope was dead, a couple discrete referals placed by high-powered friends of his family got him an exclusive spot at the most sophisticated cryonic facility in the world. He didn't know if there was such a thing as an afterlife, but part of the package included uploading a copy of his cortex into a digital universe filled countless worlds to explore, where he could embrace whatever class or profession he could dream of. All of which sounded hell of a lot better than the miserable death waiting for him in the real world. In the end, he signed the paperwork, putting his pathetic flickering life in the hands of potential quacks and charlatans. After all, with death just days away, what did he have to lose? Even if he could never be successfully revived, he could at least adventure his heart out. (Authors Note: Books 1-6 are now live on Amazon and here is a link if you wanted to check it out! And I will continue to post chapters to Book 6 here first, until that tale is told! I hope you enjoy! And if you wanted to help support my work by checking out book 1 on Amazon, I would be extremely grateful!)
