Featured Stories: Inked and Beach Bottles by Carlos Hazaday

Wow! Did you notice the title? Instead of story, it is stories this month  Timothy did two great reviews from Carlos this month. Although Timothy will most likely blatantly deny it, I'm sure this is my birthday present since it is coming up  Enjoy!     Inked by Carlos Hazday Reviewer: Timothy M. Status: Complete Word Count: 9,824 Writing a blog review, which features on 9/11, would tempt me to review Mark Arbor’s CAP story 9/11. But I already did that back in 2017. I

What's New?

Watch out guys! We've got two up and coming stars here...   CassieQ's series "Not the Sun" is well received by her fans, of course she's always looking for new fans.   "Ground Rules" is in progress and is getting pretty lengthy as well as pretty interesting. One warning though -- there is a little violence so consider yourself warned.   The reviewers, as well as myself, would highly recommend that you read each of these.   Not the Sun By CassieQ by Renee   I had read most

Middle of the week - it's all downhill from here. To celebrate, we take a look at two great stories of GayAuthors.org. The first is Just Love Him by Promising Author Dion. This short story gem gives you a good introduction to Dion's writings. We also have a review by podiumdavis of Author GREEN's A Hero in the Hallways. I hope you enjoy these reviews and they lead you to checking out one or both of these authors.   Just Love Him by Dion   Status: Complete Word Count: 2

Whats New?

Here lately I've been asking a lot of people to write reviews. Not just people I interact with all the time, or even interact well with. I thought it was important to bring that up. I also thought it was important to bring up that in many instances, old news is put aside so new news can be brought to you the reader. And for that I would like to thank my reviewers... all of them. I also think it's important to point out that the blogs do not have a spellcheck function that I can find, so if you d

Blast From The Past

Saturdays can be so many things to so many people. To some it is a chance to get that stuff done that you haven't had time (or have put off) during the week. Others it's a great time to just sit back and relax and forget about the stress of work and/or school. For us here at GA, it's a chance to look back into our past and bring you something from either an old Newsletter or an old Anthology. Today we're looking at a story from the 2007: The Road Not Taken Anthology. Enjoy! The Key By Lugh

It's Wednesday again and that means it's time to feature some more stories from GA's very talented authors. Houdinii has done a great review of "Charlie", a touching story by Promising Author Hamen Cheese.   We also have a guest reviewer who is a board member but would rather do reviews anonymously, and we agreed as long as all of these reviews are under the same reviewer name. So here is "Fozzy Bear" with their first review - and what better first story for them to review than Mr. Anonymous b

Featured Story: Finding Good Trouble

Step back from the candy canes and cherry cordials, the chocolate coins and the Christmas cookies... otherwise the reality in this month's story review  by @chris191070 might just take a bite out of you. The holidays can be a time when people are usually kinder to their fellow man, but what happens when being that good person means more than holding open a door or saying please or thank you?  Finding Good Trouble by @Ronyx Reviewer: chris191070 Status: Complete Word Count: 72,532

It is always fun looking through old newsletters and GA Anthologies - so many treasures. Like a story from ComeWhatMay, written for the 2008 Anthology "Living in the Shadows".
