All Comments on 'The Gifts of the Madge'

No greater love than mothers

Sweet. I am always amazed at the resilience of the human spirit, and the capacity for people to forgive-I don't always have that willingness. Long story, and it's complicated, as they all are.... It's also a reminder that just because someone takes on a job that many see as immoral, that does not mean the person who is engaging in that job is an immoral person. Sex workers are often tagged as being deviants for doing the work they do, when the reality is that most of them are just trying to keep a roof over their heads, and put food on their tables. The work does not define them. Delicately and nicely done.

A quite modern interpretation of giving gifts. It sheds light on the underworld always around us. Five stars ~~ JB

Very nice story, it is nice to add an element of humanity to these posts.

Well done. Five stars. I get the picture.

Cute story! Glad to see you posting again. Missed your fantasies and writing.

Happy New Year, Albany!

Cheers

Fascinating like all of your work.

5 stars for a very sobering and sweet story

Can't believe I skipped commenting on this story when I first read it. This is well-written, and beautiful. How I wish they'd make a Hallmark Christmas Movie out of this one! I think we all know the Gift of the Magi, and we've all (or at least I have) pondered over how to make it into a porn story. I never imagined going in this direction, but I'm glad you did. Bravo!

Hope it did well in the other site. Nicely written... now give us a stroke story ;-)

Poignant and sweet. O Henry would be flattered. I imagine it took you far more painstaking effort and time to compose this little jewel and it would have taken for a tale of 6 or 7 (Literotica-sized!) pages.

5 stars.
