Cia's Torturing Me!

Cia’s Torturing Me!   If you’re an author, I’m sure you’ve thought that at least once, right? I swear, it’s nothing personal! GA’s posting system is complicated, and there is always a learning curve for new authors to figure out the ins and outs of posting here. I'm also the primary staff member that reviews the Stories submissions, so I am not picking on any one person if you receive more than one PM; I'm simply the staff member that reviews everything in the queue unless I am away from G

Mainline Kids Busted for Drug Ring

A pot-selling drug ring, aimed at selling to teenagers in the tony suburbs of the Mainline in Philadelphia, was busted. Titled "The Mainline Takeover Project", the ringerleaders were graduates of The Haveford School, and were once stand-outs on their lacrosse team.   This makes me think about the plot in Cross-Currents, where Andy and Trey get the idea that it might be cool for them to become drug dealers on the basis that because they're good-looking and popular, people might be more comfor

Fantastic (now in color!)

This will not be a happy post. In fact, some may come away from it thinking that I am attacking them, even if I name no one by name. They...won't be entirely wrong.   I've been reading this morning some articles on diversity in Fantasy. Specifically, ones related to the Pathfinder Campaign setting, which has made a genuine effort to be inclusive and diverse, on several levels, in their characters. While the articles themselves have not upset me, the comments. Oh, I made the mistake of reading

Some writing concerns

Over the past few months I have noticed the readership of my stories has gone down, not only that, but the number of likes and reviews has dropped as well. I know some of it was due to the break from writing that i took when i switched jobs, but I am also trying to determine if it is the pacing of the stories, the content, the fact that I have four stories going at once, or some other factor that I have not figured out yet. I'd like to figure it out and improve my writing but it is difficult whe

Rest In Peace: Ghostryder15 (1946-2013)

It's with great sadness that we report one of our Classic Authors, GhostRyder15, passed away in October 2013. Ghost Ryder was one of Gay Authors' original Hosted Authors, joining the site back in 2005. A military veteran of the United States Navy during the Vietnam War, it is no surprise that his stories are military themed.   Today we honor Ghost Ryder's contributions to both this site and gay fiction.

What's Easter Anyway?

Easter is a holiday throughout the Christian world to celebrate that Jesus died for the sins of human kind and rose again on the third day. That's basically the answer that most people will give, and it's perfectly correct. In most languages, the name for Easter tends to be some derivation of the verb 'to pass', taken from the Hebrew Pesach, a Jewish holiday that in English is known as Passover, and which was being celebrated in Jerusalem at the time of the Crucifixion. That name has simply been

Easter Oddities - At least for me.

Happy Easter everyone.   My day has been a bit odd.   Originally was planning on having a ham for Easter. Had dug through the recipes and found my mother's recipe for her sweet gravy for ham. Dad had gone out on Thursday to get the ham. When he came home it was with a turkey breast. Guess what I made today?   I went and dug out all my needed seasonings and spices for the stuffing to go with the turkey only to find i had no Thyme. Finding an open store was an adventure but as I finally pull

Quick thoughts

I've been in a rotten mood the last few days. I guess that is an understatement.   For anyone who knows me, they know I have grown to really hate retail and wanted to get back to teaching. Funny, but occasionally you are willing to do a lot for someone else that you wouldn't normally think of doing for yourself. It is what happened for me. I had been working like mad to find a way to be closer to someone I had fallen for and was even applying to teach English in another country. Lets just say

Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden Plans To Run for Governor

Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden Plans To Run For Governor   I would have been excited about this before, because I love the Bidens and I had a lot of respect for Beau for his handling of the Earl Bradley case, but his defense of the lenient sentence for the Du Pont heir who molested his children really, really deflated a lot of my enthusiasm for this emerging political dynasty. It would take a lot for him not to get elected, though. There's the Biden name, and the fact that Delaware hasn

Okay so, here's the deal. I was just done working out at about 4:30 p.m. Despite sweating like a pig, I didn't go straight to the shower, instead, I hang around the house, wasting time, waiting for my sis to come home. I was alone at the time, and I need to open the gate for her. Seeing that I can't wait much longer, I close the front door as a signal that I'm busy and can't open the damn gate for anyone, so they'll have to do it themselves, and head to the bathroom.

I'm Back again....Damn that was a rough couple weeks

Let's go through a recap of why I haven't been on lately:   My Grandmother fell in her elder housing unit, she had to be rushed to Tufts Medical Center in Boston. At 88 years old, she is growing more and more feeble and senile, tragically.   She was rushed first to the emergency room and inspected, we all thought it was just a fall, but then a deeper CT scan revealed a big problem. She had blood build up in her lung, a substantial amount that blocked air in her right lung specifically. They

Today we begin to replenish the Promising Author ranks with the new promotion of Thorn Wilde! Thorn's first completed novel on GA, Nemesis, is the 2013 RCA winner for a story by a new author and had 179 reviews. Fortunately, for fans of the novel completed last spring, Thorn is also posting a sequel, Soulmates Never Die, that is already over 40k in length. If novels aren't your thing, you can still read one of Thorn's many short stories--from one chapter shorts, to anthologies, to fanfictions.

Windows, Linux and OSX... Oh My!

Well, I've recently upgraded both my laptop and tablet to Windows 8.1 (well, 8.1 update 1 but as we all know it's a service pack so nice try Microsoft) and I'm finding that I'm liking the revision that they did. It brought back more of the desktop experience which is what a lot of people like and missed with the original Windows 8. So to me Microsoft, with the latest update, turned it into Windows 7 with a brand new start menu interface.   Now don't get me wrong I am by no means a Microsoft fa

Baseball is back

I came across an article today that may not make any sense to someone unfamiliar with baseball, but makes perfect sense to me.   In essence the argument is made that baseball is all about the anticipation. But the author in the article cited does a much better job than I ever could:     http://theweek.com/article/index/259600/yes-baseball-is-boring-thats-exactly-what-makes-it-so-great   I would only add that the pace of the game allows the fans to interact more and perhaps this is why
