The Twisted Tales of Harold Reynolds

These are some of the twisted tales that I wrote during my time in London Central Secondary School (note that here in Ontario high school goes to Grade 13, though it was phased out long ago) and into my first year undergrad at the University of Western Ontario. They started as a strange competition between myself and two friends in Grade 9 English as to who could write the sickest stories for the creative writing part of the class. It soon became clear that I had the more demented imagination. Why I continuted in this vein for the next six years I'll never know, and I'm sure the long-suffering English teachers at the school won't either. Come to think of it, I don't know why I wasn't called in for a psychological evaluation either, as I'm sure these things could indicate a severely disturbed kid. However, I was a good student, did very well in all my classes and, as far as I know, was generally well-liked by the students in a large number of the various cliques, probably because I was square as a brick and made no bones about it. (The corners have rounded a bit since then, but I'm still fundamentally square...)

So here they are for the world to read, each with a small introduction to place it in context. In what will probably prove to be a futile attempt to dodge copyright infringement, I have changed Smurf to Snuff and Sesame Street to Poppy Street. For some reason I really had it in for those shows. I hope that you enjoy them!

The Erotic Novels of Harold Reynolds

I started writing what would eventually be called Ridiculust on June 22, 2018 as a love story featuring a lonely widow and widower, but with the addition that the man likes puns. Then he discovers that saying a pun will cause something magical to happen, with the event related to the content of the pun. The end of "Day 1" is the end of that story, but I kept thinking "what happens next?" So I continued writing. I don't want to have any spoilers, but after the relatively slow start in Day 1, the other chapters introduce new characters and more interesting events as the strength of the magic increases and the man is not the only one who can use it.

There are plenty of "adult" activities, albeit not equally distributed amongst the chapters of what turned out to be a novel of more than 113,000 words. There is also a lot of humour, as I find ways to exploit strange things. Not to mention plenty of puns. We need more humour, especially now. And with all of the tens of thousands of stories on Literotica, I'm pretty sure that Ridiculust is unique.

Linking to the story, which is hosted on Literotica, is a significant exception to the focus of my site, which is intended to be family-friendly. I started publishing it one chapter at a time at the beginning of October, 2020. The first chapter starts a bit slowly (little "adult activity"), but it lays the foundation for what is to come, so please don't stop with it! I hope that you enjoy it!

And the usual disclaimer: if you are not of the age at which you can legally access erotic stories in your jurisdiction, please wait until you are! I can't stop you, of course, but I have to put in the warning...
