Mistaken Paternity

Post by C van D (imported) »

This is the title of my latest effort, which will hopefully appear on these screens in the next few days. It's presently being reviewed with the idea of eliminating howlers, non-PC material and so on- a process I'd commend to everybody.

Nothing to do with Simon and his friends, "Mistaken Paternity" was suggested by an item in the UK news last Spring: a 14 year old girl got pregnant and blamed an 11 year old boy. Before the story dropped off the radar it turned out that the girl had been screwing around and the baby might have been anyone's.

Fiction takes over here. The 11-year-old boy gets neutered, in the belief that this will instantly turn him into a nicely-behaved little boy. But in quick succession he encounters a depraved little girl with a passion for "oral", and a priest who is a serial pederast..........

What is your process? How many people do you have read your stories?

I've been letting Paolo see them for many years past. Jesus has also been involved particularly in the earlier stories involving Dr Geller, and one 1-off (Bye-bye testicles) Firstly in order to prune out anything unacceptable to EA. Secondly to ensure that the stories are chronologically consistent - that a boy described as a 13-year-old isn't described as a 12-year-old in an episode taking place (purportedly) a year later.

Pleased to see that the piece has now made it into the New Stories section. I should apologise for the way in which the text switches from Roman to Italic and back, and for quirks in the spacing. All to do with technical glitches in transmission apparently - and my 10-year-old software,

Hmmm....

It was a fun read! Thanks for posting, Mr. D.

I liked the way you handled his 'enrollment' at the group home; my favorite part of the tale. I also really liked you dialogue at the big meeting; very fun to read!

While this tale remains outside the immediate realm of Simon et. al., it certainly fits as an aside.

Thank you very much!
Paolo

First of all, I am to blame for any quirky spacing errors. The EA story formatter doesn't play well with Front Page html code! Don't know what the issue was, but it was a war to get the silly thing take this one!

It was worth it, however. This is one great read, and the ending is so "Twilight Zone"-ish that it just leaves you sitting there going, "Oh my God!"

Well done as always.

And yes, someday, there is going to be an update to the "Simon Compendium!"
