Cbdt Characters: Hunter Douglas

Just like DVD commentaries, you guys get to hear me talk about the characters and what went into their development. Hunter was the 2nd Character I created for this story (The first character is going to show up in chapter 3). He's my ideal of what the future of LGBT movement will evolve into; he is a cross between Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg, and Leonardo Da Vinci. Imagine if one day, a gay teenager invents a massively popular App, then he uses his success and keeps inventing until h

Shrink Time And An Introduction To Iterations

I went to the shrink last week. I wanted to discuss the problems I was having with getting and staying asleep. It seems the VA hospital in Seattle came up an instruction booklet for older adults to acquire proper sleep habits. Starting off with going to be at the same time every night then getting up at the same time the following morning. Since my son turns the TV off at 1:30 a.m., that is my scheduled bedtime; 9:30 is the time I’m supposed to get up. The TV is distracting so it delays the

Victor's Wavering Weirdness

Conversion Therapies

I just wanted to share this with you all. My mom subscribes for a weekly magazine I generally steal away for a couple of hours it to read about the sex Q/A. You know, the kind of one where couples send questions to a sexologist and he/she answers them. You can just call it a guilty pleasure or a pet peeve or whatever. I find it entertaining to read about the kind of problems straight couples face regarding sex This week I read something that made me think now that's rare ....okay the que

My Halloween Loop 2015

Last night, I went on the Halloween Loop, which is something that Wilmington puts on every year as a way to entertain their residents and the people of the suburbs and making Wilmington a happening night spot, at least for that particular night. Anyway, dressed as a cowboy, I went to many different bars- Chelsea Tavern, Extreme Pizza, Shenaniganz, Firestone Roasting House, Kelly's Logan House, Satsuma Kitchen, Scratch Magoo's, and finally ended up at Rooney's/The Trolley Square Tap Room. It was

Drew's Slice of Pi

I'm Just Fangirling...

Hey everyone! There is this site, that I used to visit a lot when I was sixteen or seventeen. Well, if Literotica and Nifty had children together, this site would have been the naughty one so, that should give y'all an idea on what the site is like Many of its stories weren't really that great. Heck, a lot of them were more porn than plot However, like Literotica and Nifty, there were gems here and there. One of those gems, is the reason for this blog Back in May 2013, I ca

Chapter 1 And 2 Of Cbdt Are Now Live

https://www.gayauthors.org/story/w-l/0sand1scbdt To sum everything up into two sentences: Knowledge is power, not just power in the form of magic or a nuclear weapons, it is the power to bring down individuals and nations through revelations. Whether it is an anti-LGBT group or a LGBT defensive team formed by a group of geniuses, in our modern world of integrated technology, knowledge is a weapon that can kill or protect.

Movies That Make You Feel Like A Little Kid

So, my movie theater ran the Back to the Future trilogy last night, in celebration of Back To the Future Day. I wasn't able to see the first two, but I did get to see the third movie...and I gotta tell you, after Doc Brown and his wife Clara fly off in their time travel train with a content Marty McFly and Jennifer Parker, I just felt like a happy little 9-year old kid again. I'd never gotten to see the movies in theater because I was either a baby or a toddler, and there was something just magi

Writing Tip Writing Tip: So You Wanna Be An Author

For a while in the blog, we used to do "Blast from the Past" posts. All of these posts came from the old newsletter. I was struggling to figure out what to post for today, when I thought, why not check out the earlier posts of the revived blog. In looking back, I found the perfect post, and it happens to be the first "Writing Tip" that was posted when Lugh started the blog back up. I hope you find it informative.

You know what this is Something Scary

So like, something curious happened today. Me and my mate, on the school computers, cracking out some media studies work, and I just happen to be on my photo drive staring at this picture I snatched off a digital album posted on the school site of a junior hockey sports game. The photo was of my best crush in the whole wide world even if you combined hot guys like Charlie Puth and Zac Efron together he still would be my pick crush since last year, standing on his lonesome, in the middle of a ho

Magic to me can be broken down into Psi ability of Telekinesis, whether it is moving objects, slowing it down, weather control, or teleportation (Physics of quantum entanglement and other stuff). Warlocks in my universe are endowed with a unique ability to grow and channel their magic within themselves. They don't need conduits like the earth or any pagan deity, like Witches and dem

2014 Followup Entry

Once again, it's been awhile since my last entry. For this entry, I'm going to concentrate on the walking that I mentioned before. In August of 2014, I bought myself an exercise tracker. I started out with one of the cheaper ones that tracked my daily steps, calories burned, and my sleep at night. I can the information to my computers, phone, and tablet. When I started having problems with the tracker almost a year later, I upgraded to one of the trackers which has clock built in. It als

Lgbt Story Review: "jason" By Pyro

Story: Jason Why do I like this kind of story? In terms of writing, it is grammatically bad, which in the modern world of Gay stories is a death knell for readers (I understand what you must think, if a writer cannot edit, they should not be writing and posting), but in terms of content, it holds a good message with extremely poignant characters that we can all desire to live up to or desire to be. It has weaknesses and hokey plot elements, plus the usual Dickensian problems of the early

What's Up Next...

Just thought I'd drop a note now that Lie of the Serpent is done to let anyone who was curious know what I have going on in my head now. Well, apparently, I've deviated from my original plan. I have a couple ideas floating in my head, one of which was the gymnast one I mentioned in one of my poems and in a previous blog. And I actually started it--one chapter, sort of. But then another idea hit me--okay, pounded me over the head--because I started it as well. I think I'm more inve

One More Short Story In Billy Newt's Universe, Then Cbdt

Well, I don't want to let my readers down; even if the appeal was small and marginal, I will give them one more short story in that universe at the very least. I am not going to commit to a long term unless you guys want me to, since I do have a primary story being launched. For the upcoming launch of Cyber Bullying Defense Team, 8 chapters have finished editing with a Halloween special Kitt is working on the tail portion right now, but that part will not be released until December/January.
