2014 Fall Anthology: Scars *Getting Started*

Now that the Summer Anthology: The Backup Plan has gone live, it’s time to look towards the upcoming 2014 Fall Anthology: Scars.   I thought it might be a good idea to share some thoughts on getting started with your next anthology story, if you haven’t already done so.   Have you thought about the plot for your story? The topic “Scars” can lead in so many different directions. It could be physical, it could be mental, and it could only be a tangential link to the theme. Your entire story do

Featured Story: The Matchmaker Is Grounded

It's the start of another week and that means it's time to look at a new story. I'm always asking for reviews for the blog (by the way, if you want to do a review, PM me) so this week I decided it was past time that I did another review for the blog. With so many talented authors on site, it was hard to choose a story to review. In the end, I decided to review "The Matchmaker is Grounded" by Dark. I hope you enjoy the review and that it inspires you to check out Dark's story. The Matchmaker i

Featured Story: Memoirs Of A Child Of The Past Century

Being the start of a new week, Monday's are also a good time to take a look at some of the different stories that can be found on Gay Authors. With so many great works, it can be easy to overlook one and Monday's provide an opportunity for us to help make one of them stand out and maybe catch your interest. Today, we're bringing you a review by Percy of Old Bob's story "Memoirs of a Child of the Past Century." Enjoy! Memoirs of a Child of the Past Century by Old Bob   Revie

Peek-a-boo! Ya, Renee was kind enough to allow me to do another Weekly Wrap Up while she is out of town. So let's look back on our week then. We started by looking at our Featured Story: Leopard Skin Cover by Signature Author Graeme. I was privileged to have been a beta reader for this great story and Wildone's review wonderfully captures the interest of this story.   Premium Tuesday gave us a look at Incomplete Recollections by Johnathan Colourfield, a part of the Summer Premium Anthology.

Premium Tuesday: Incomplete Recollections

Every Tuesday we showcase just one of GA's Premium Content stories. This week we're featuring "Incomplete Recollections" by Johnathan Colourfield. Last summer GA had a Summer Premium Anthology, but rather than post all the stories at once, they were posted one right after the other. Johnathan's story was just one of the three that were posted.

Hope everyone had a great weekend!!! I want to start the Weekly Wrap Up out by announcing that Wildone (a.k.a. Steve) has been promoted to Site Admin. Welcome Aboard Steve, good to have you! For those who haven't already noticed it, JSmith has posted a blog that he will be resigning from all areas of the site. He has been a major part of the site for many years and it is certainly a sad day. We certainly wish him the best and he will be missed. I'm sure I speak for many when I say, Thank you Joe

June Csr Book Club Selection: Cjames' Anthologies

June is the month our summer anthology comes out, and that's always a great event for our authors, new and experienced. I like to feature the anthologies from time to time, but this month I thought we'd take a peek at a single long-time member's various takes on the themes through the years. C James is the well-known, and popular, author of Circumnavigation--the longest story on GA. So how about taking a peek at some of his shortest, if you're not up to tackling his 1.1 million word epic? C J

I know it's Monday, and time to feature a new story, but before I do that, there's something else I'd like to do. Without a certain person, none of us would have such a great site to visit, read stories, and interact with so many great people. I doubt when Myr first came up with the idea for Gay Authors that he expected it would become what it is today, so with that in mind I would like to simply say, Thank You and....     Now, let's see the wonderful review of Geeks by CassieQ, supp
