Upcoming Tributes

The deadline to participate in our second tribute to Carlos Hazday is fast approaching.  I have created the threads for discussion and to paste the links to submissions.  They can be found in the Writer's Circle: Carlos' stories continue to inspire readers; even those who didn't have the pleasure of knowing him.  So, consider participating if Carlos' work has sparked inspiration, no matter how tangential.   I have updated Comicality's tribute blog and will create the threads for that

Thank You to Our Prompt Team!

Prompts have always been an integral part of GA and something to look forward to every Friday.  Starting with our dear Comicfan and now continuing with the Prompt Team, seeing how authors come up with different takes on the weekly prompts is always exciting.  Prompts have sparked some popular longer works and also some great short stories and character sketches.  I always look forward to seeing what my fellow Prompt Team members come up with every Friday.  So, the Admin Team is continuing our we

Thank You to Our Moderation Team

Continuing on with our week of thanks, the Admin team wants to call out the amazing volunteers on our Moderation Team!! When most of us think of moderation they think it is all about discipline. We all try really hard to educate first. Then in limited cases, we do have to let some know what they are doing, how it is harming the site, and what we need to do to avoid it in the future. Due to the actions by our Mods, this is about always the only occurrence due to their willingness to help eve

Thank You To Our Review Team

Hi Everyone!!! The Admins here at GA are thankful for the groups that help us out throughout the year for the time and effort that they put into make GA the premiere gay stories sites on the internet!  After discussing, GA would like to extend an official public thank you to our Review Team. Month in and month out they take turns reading a story from scratch and doing up a review. This hopefully piques your interest in a story you may not have read or maybe an author you have not read.
