  • Unveiling a Parallel ~ Chapter 3 (1893)
    Oct 7 2024

    By Alice Ilgenfritz Jones and Ella Merchant


    Tonight we begin to truly peel the layers and unveil the parallels between men and women on Mars and men and women on Earth as our un-named Earth explorer comes face to face with traditions that he views as only masculine being fully enjoyed by the women of Mars.


    An enjoyable story and study, but not likely to keep you awake. As always our story is comfortably cuddled with layers of peaceful harmonies and the sounds of nature.

  • Unveiling a Parallel (1893) - Chapter 2
    Sep 30 2024

    In tonight's story our traveler and his new Martian friend discuss many of the differences between their communities. As they discuss women's roles, politics, and religion, I challenge you to remember that this story was written in 1893. Of course...that's IF you make it that far before drifting off to sleep.


    As always, tonight's episode is comfortably wrapped in peaceful music and the chorus of nature to help you find your perfect sleep.


    Prior to tonight's chapter, enjoy a snippet from The Coil by J.C. Moore available for sale here. (The Coil is for adult horror story lovers only.)

    Oh my did we find a good one!


    Gathered from the feminist writings of the late 1800s, we begin this novel tonight that will undoubtedly become part of our Cheeky Book Talk Collection available on Amazon.


    But for now, enjoy this tale of our nameless hero as he travels to Mars in his "aeroplane" and finds two very different cultures to explore.
