Weekly Wrap Up!

I hope everyone had a great weekend. As we get ready to start a new week, it's time to take a look back at what happened this past week in the GA News Blog. There was a lot of great things going on, and if you haven't already checked out the past week's post, now is the chance for you to get a glimpse and maybe go read up on the posts you missed.   We started the week out with the CSR Discussion on Rumors of War by Cynus. There was a great interview and then Cynus joined us in the blog to answ

Hoping everyone here has a super week! With the release of the 2015 Poetry Anthology it's time to start looking forward to the 2015 Summer Anthology and the 2015 Fall Anthology. Pop by the Anthology Forum for all the details, the theme for the Summer Anthology is Road Trip!   This week we're going to go a little bit backwards in our look back at the week.   Friday of this week we put aside the Prompts for a week as we had a much awaited Anthology, the 2015 Poetry Anthology!

I hope everyone had a great week! I think today I'm going to get right into the Wrap Up for the week.   Monday and Wednesday were all about Andy78, the author of Magic In The Air, which just so happens to be this month's Signature Author Background. On Monday, Cia wrote a review for the story and then on Wednesday she interviewed Andy78. If you haven't already checked them out, they're sitting there waiting.   Friday brought us a couple of new prompts from the prompt guru Comicfan. This week

I hope everyone has had a great week and a great weekend. It's time to take a look at what happened in the GA News Blog over the last week. Also, a huge Thank You to Cia and Wildone both for their help with the blog last week while I was so sick.   On Monday, Cia took over the blog to announce this month's CSR choice. If you haven't already started one of the three listed stories, I'd suggest you start now so you can join in on the discussion that will happen on April 27th.   Tuesday, Wildon

Spring has sprung and it seems like everyone's mood is picking up after which has been a long hard winter for some areas in the Northern Hemisphere. Other areas in Southern Hemisphere are, I am hoping, heading into a mild winter.   One of the things about Spring is that they always seem to bring the dreaded Spring Cold. Renee is sidelined with one right now so I have stepped in to ensure she is taking her meds, hot baths, and getting as much rest as possible. Join me in wishing Renee a speedy

I hope everybody has had a great week. It has been a very busy week here in the GA News blog. Don't forget there's only one week left before the CSR Discussion on "Roommates" by Krista, so if you haven't finished reading, you still have a little bit of time. Now, let's see what happened this week in the blog!   Our Monday feature took a look at Leaving Club Leo by long-time site member and author C James!

Sorry all, running a bit late today. The week has gone by so quickly that I sorta forgot today was Sunday! Before I get going, for those who didn't noticed Saturday's post, I wanted to once again announce the winner for the International Flirt Week Contest.   For the line: **walk up to a stranger, lick a finger and wipe it on the guy's shirt** "Come on, baby. Let's get you out of these wet clothes."   This past week was a week to feature Carl Holiday! On Monday we

I hope everybody had a great weekend. I can't believe it's Sunday already, which means it's time to look over the week and recap what was posted in the GA News Blog as well as what our promoted authors were up to. Before I get to that, I'd appreciate it if everyone would take just a minute to answer the poll questions. Also, don't forget tomorrow is the discussion day for the CSR book club!   For our Featured Story, Timothy M. provided us with a review of JWolf's story "The English Year".

Out with the old and in with the new!!! No I'm not referring to Renee and myself but the passing of 2014 and now on our way into 2015. Renee is taking a much deserved vacation or she is recovering from a massive hangover from New Year's Eve. I'll let you all decide   We had a busy week on Blog for the end of the year and into the new one.   Monday was a chance for Cia to bring us the CSR Discussion Day with Delores Esteban.

First off, I want to give a big Thank You to Cia for handling the blog for me this week, much appreciated, but I'm back and we have a lot to look at. However, there's something that needs to be addressed before we look back at this week's postings. As many might remember, the authors here at Gay Authors reached a milestone of 100 Million words! To celebrate, we decided to run a couple of contests. Thank you to everyone who participated, but now it's time to announce the winners, you will be cont

It's almost time for another week to start, but before that happens, let's take a look at what happened this week in the GA News Blog.   We started out Monday by looking at "Imprint" by Hermit in the Cave.
