Csr Discussion Day: Don't Shout By Sasha Distan

Welcome back to another Discussion day with the Can't Stop Reading Blog Book Club. Whew, is that a mouthful. What isn't a mouthful is the story that is the subject of today's discussion. Quite a bit of the problem we're introduced to right away is that fact that one character doesn't talk at all, at least not out loud. I hope everyone is ready to discuss their thoughts about Don't Shout by Sasha Distan. First, though, we're going to learn a bit more about Sasha, who I subjected to another one of

I hope you enjoy this interview with Rob Colton!   *Staff note for those who like to favorite stories and chapters: We've increased your daily likes, so now you can show your appreciation even

ANNOUNCEMENT: Please check out our reminder that political posts are not allowed in GA Forums   Thank you, and now back to Can't Stop Reading Discussion Day for Reach, by Cassie Q!   Has everyone read the story for this month? I hope so, because it was really good! Cassie's Reach is worth the effort to untangle the wicked weave of the twisted plot she wrote.   Do you know arousal?"

Csr May Stories ... Reader's Choice Anthologies!

For May's Can't Stop Reading Book Club I decided to go an easy way out and pick short stories I know are site favorites since we were avoiding a novel. So, for this month we will be reading the past 3 year's Reader's Choice Best Anthology award winners! We'll have 4 stories, not 3, because the 2010 winners tied. I hope you enjoy reading one, or all, of these.   HELP!!!: I'd love some feedback from participants for this month's discussion day. What would you like the format to be? More reviews?

No book club this month!   April Fools! Okay, so I suck at pranks. We are doing a story; this month we're going with the story suggested by Percy. I'm loving all the detailed feedback readers are sharing with each other and our authors. One of the suggestions I've heard a few times is giving short stories a chance. I'd like to feature 3 short stories, up to say, 25k each but they can be less, for next month's selections. That way people can pick and choose what to read, any or all of them.

Csr: Story Discussion For State Of Mind

Today we're featuring a review of Libby's story, State of Mind. She graciously gave out eBook copies, and members could read it on the site, of course. Fishwings accepted my request and wrote up an excellent review to entice you to read the story, just in case you haven't already. Bear in mind, however, there *are* some spoilers. Read ahead at your own risk!   Fishwing's Review:   First of all, I'd like to thank Cia for letting me write this review. She knows that I'm a huge fan of Libby Dr

Csr: Story Discussion Day For Nowhere Man

It's that time again! Can't Stop Reading (CSR) Book Discussion Day! This month we are discussing Nowhere Man by Jwolf. This roughly 45,000 word modern story was published back in 2011 and was nominated on last month's discussion day by Percy. If you haven't read the story yet, please be aware the following review will have several spoilers, and several of the comments most likely will as well.   My review:   I hadn't read this story in a long, long time.

Csr (Can't Stop Reading) - Discussion Day On Memories Of Forgotten Love

First - thanks MUST go to Cia for coming up with concept and the legwork to make this happen.   Well, that wraps up the reading time for the first story of the GA Can't Stop Reading Book Club! Hope everyone enjoyed the story Memories of Forgotten Love by Nephylim. Now, before we get into the discussion, Renee contacted Nephy and asked her to give us her thoughts on the story. What gave her the idea in the first place? So to start off this discussion, let's here what Nephy has to say!   **SP

Ga's Csr Book Club

Book clubs have had a long and storied history - providing both social interaction for the members as well as providing a forum for discussion of books/stories that might otherwise have not received as much attention.   Cia recently came up with the idea for a GA Book Club and the rest of us here at the GayAuthors.org News Blog thought it was a fantastic idea. Here's an initial idea of how this would work, as well as the focus for our first month's choice - Nephylim's Memories of Forgotten Lov
