    Featured Story: Let the Music Play

    By wildone

    Let the Music Play by C James Reviewer: W_L Status: Complete Word Count: 287,713     Before he wrote the epic Circumnavigation, Cjames crafted this fun novel about being part of a rock band, in every sense of the concept. From road crew to bandmate, Brandon's journey is beautifully told from being a lonely poorly-paid sound tech to millionaire-rocker with the dream boyfriend, in addition to a subtle nuclear conspiracy behind the scenes to add a little surrealism to the

Gay Authors Reading Report for Jan 2021 to Sep 2021

This week's writing article is going to be a little different than usual.  Instead of giving you tips or insights into different aspects of writing, I'm going to give you some insights into what people are actually reading here at Gay Authors. As an engineer, I'm what is called 'data driven'.  Whenever possible, I try to use actual data and good reasoning to predict project expectations of how things are going to go.  Obviously, the best we can do is identify past trends and make reasonable

Drama for Authors & Volunteers!

Heads up, Authors! We're still working on creating a great new sub-system for genres for authors, and during Myr's recent mine for data, one thing we noticed was that "Drama" is being used for many stories with no other genres on a TON of stories. Drama is going away with the new sub-genre system, and we want everyone to have a heads up that those stories will need to be moved to the correct new genre or sub-genre. Is your story primarily a romance? Comedy? One of the sub-genres we're coming out
