I'm doing 38 things
I was working a construction job in southern Alabama a few years ago. My girlfriend had a couple of weeks available to come visit. She just happened to know a girl who lived in the same town in which I was working and got permission to set up a tent in their yard for a few days (the family was out of town for the week on a vacation, I think). I would sleep in the tent with her and get up and go straight to work. One night came a warm, medium, summer rain. We made love right on the ground in her friend’s yard in the rain. Passionate and caring lovemaking is always a wonderful experience, but this time it was compounded with the rain and nearly-public display (the yard was wrapped by a row of waist-high shrubbery). I must admit I also have a pseudo-fetish for the thrill of doing naughty things in a scenario where there’s a chance of being caught.

How I did it
It made me
Ahhh yeah! 
How I did it: I'm kind of cheating by counting this as something I've completed, as my goal was really to write something akin to a novella, but technically it is a book. I've been writing poetry, very short stories, lyrics, comedy, and various ideas for a long time, as well as indulging in photography and digital art. I decided to make a compilation of a lot of these things into a book I entitled, "Serial Miscellany." I designed the book cover and cre… Read how I did it…
