December Signature Excerpt: Elias by Krista

Did you catch Monday's feature? Have you read Krista's story? Raven1 said it wasn't spooky... but like many of Krista's readers, thinks her writing itself is enthralling. Is it her characters? The way she writes the scenes? What do you think? Read on and decide? (and share your thoughts!!)  Want to read more? Click here

December Signature Feature: Elias by Krista

Today's Signature Feature is our last one for the 2025, and it just so happened to line up with Krista! One of GA's longest posting authors, no matter what kind of content you want to read, you'll probably find it in her author listing! I decided to slip back a bit from the happy holidays to a bit of a spook factor. Who doesn't like visiting gravestones in a ghost town during tinsel time???

November Signature Feature: When Opportunity Knocks by kbois

Once again, I'm featuring a story that brings up that topic we often think of this time of year, family and love. Why do we love our family? Do the people in our lives truly love us? What might that prompt us to do, or not do, for love, family, friends and more? When Opportunity Knocks has some hard topics, light moments, and a lot of great writing. Please take the time to enjoy it!  Length: 96,473 Description: Jett Anderson and Kyle Benton are starting to build a relationship. L

September Signature Author Feature: Bonkers by JamesSavik

How about some another feature of an older story by a popular site author for our readers who might have missed it? Rated "G" for a feel-good story by the author himself (and I agree!) you can't miss this story that's just *ahem* a little Bonkers! Length: 1,263 Description:  Two fearful boys meet an outstanding dog. Dedicated to all the dogs out there who are sometimes smarter than their boys.

June Signature Excerpt: Bearpaw: An Old West Tale by Headstall

Did you catch Monday's ad feature for Headstall's story, Bearpaw: An Old West Tale? Have you read it or put it on your to read list yet? Even if you have never read a Western fictional tale before, you should really give it a chance. His writing has a way of making you invested in the characters and their lives, and you won't be sorry (even if it's a bit longer than most, though that's the draw for me usually!). Check out this excerpt, if you haven't read it yet.  Want to read more? Click

June Signature Author Feature: Bearpaw: An Old West Tale by Headstall

This month I wanted to feature something that felt... substantial, and don't ask me why but I always tend to swing back to historical fiction when I'm warm and dealing with the swing of the seasons into summer. Probably because I was always running out of reading material as a kid on summer break and sneaking bodice ripper Harlequins and Louis L'Amour western paperbacks as a kid, lol! Now, I wouldn't put @Headstall's writing in either category, but I always enjoy his depth and dedication to the

May Classic Author Feature: Black Swans by Graeme

This short story is a short story written long ago by Graeme (almost 20 years!) but it shouldn't be missed. Please take the time to read and review this series of snapshots, as he termed it, that fits right in with the theme I'm using to feature this month's stories!  Length: 3,175 Description: Snapshots of lives as a young boy grows up, a young couple age, and an old man goes through his retirement. A reader said: No guarantees in life.😬 ~AlexLittel   If you want

April Signature Author Feature: Space Pioneer 1 by Dolores Esteban

Welcome to April's Signature Author Feature! I'm obviously featuring one of our Classic authors this month, and this oldie but goodie, might have escaped you. Dolores posted Space Pioneer 1 way back in 2014, so I wanted to bring it back now for your reading enjoyment. It features two of my favorite themes, Ancient Egypt and space!  Length: 50,140 Description: On his trip to Mars, Jeff's shuttle gets dragged through space by an alien spaceship that is performing a space jump.

March Signature Feature: Pardon my Polari by Dodger

Length: 12,647 Description: The story of Anthony Larkin, his struggle against injustice, and the evolution of gay rights in the UK. The characters in this story occasionally converse in Polari—a secret slang adopted by gay men in the UK during the fifties and sixties to evade prosecution. The Polari words are in italics, and translations are provided in the chapter end notes. A Reader said: A very realistic look back at one of the darker parts of UK history. There is humour, t

February Signature Feature: Clouded Purity by Cynus

What do you do when you love something or someone so much that you have to make the hardest decisions of all? This story is Book 2 in Cynus' series, The Trial, so I really recommend you read them all in order if you enjoy fantasy work in order to be able to understand this one. But it's worth it!  Description: Eight centuries before Salidar thulu-Khant's reign, the world was much different. Technology, not magic, defined the world, though political machinations and civil unrest had pu

Who doesn't love snuggling under the blankets with someone? Whether it's hot or cold where you are, I think we could all use a little... moment. Check out how Comicality shared these characters enjoying their time during the 2020 Anthology themed "The Storm".  Length: 8,264 Description: Max is currently at home alone during the big snow storm of 2011, Chicago's 'Snowpocalypse'!

December Signature Excerpt: Button by Cole Matthews

It's our last excerpt of the month, so I had to make sure I picked a good one for this month's Feature from Monday: Button by Cole Matthews! I know this is a longer story than the last few months, but it's worth it, right? Plus with the chapters being vignettes, you can take breaks if you need to. I hope you enjoy Button.

December Signature Feature: Button by Cole Matthews

Can you believe it's the last month of 2025 already? We're at our last feature and I wanted to focus on a story that I think would showcase what could be considered a gift. What's better than the gift of Button to his dads? Check out this story by Cole Matthews if you never have before!  Length: 77,806 Description: Button is a little boy who was dropped on his father's doorstep.
