Weekly Wrap Up!

Hope everyone had a great weekend! It's almost time to start another week, but before we do, we like to take a look back at what happened, just in case you missed anything. Lots of great things happen each week in the Gay Authors News Blog and we'd hate for anyone to miss anything.   Monday started out Signature Week with Comicfan's review of Second Shot by Andrew Q Gordon. For those who haven't already read the story, you can take a quick look at Comicfan's review to see if it's something you

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mom's out there, I hope you have a wonderful day! It's hard to believe that it's already May and that many places are starting to see the benefits of Spring. It was yet another busy week in the Gay Authors News Blog, so in case you missed something, let's take a look back.   The first Monday of every month is slated to announce the new story selection for the CSR Book Club.

Ask An Author #16

It's the first Wednesday of the month, and that is always a special treat in the Gay Author's News Blog. As most people know, the first Wednesday of every month has been slated for a feature by Dark called Ask An Author in which different authors are asked a question from the members at Gay Authors. It's a great feature, and a big Thank You to Dark for keeping it going. So, let's see what Dark has in store for us this month! Ask an Author #16   Welcome back to another quirky question an

Premium Tuesday - Jake

It's time for another look into the Premium Section of Gay Authors. As most people know, the Premium Section is our way of saying Thank You to those who help support Gay Authors by purchasing a Premium Subscription. There are quite a few stories that have either only posted in Premium or have been moved to Premium for one reason or another. This week, we are showcasing a story by C James, also known to many by his pseudonym, The Goat.   Jake by CJames   Jake the typic

May Csr Book Club Selection: The Jacob & Marcus Tales

May already! For many we're on the cusp of a new season and for some of us it's still pouring down rain, grr. I thought this month I'd feature a story with a lot of duality in it. Then, I decided to do something a little different and do a series. Now, I know a novel series would be far too much reading, but Thorn Wilde's Jacob and Marcus Tales just fit the bill, with all the 8 stories in the series under 8k in length. *Story #5 in the series is a set of 2 short prequels* I hope you enjoy this s

Oh my you people are lucky - you get to have me for two weeks in a row now! I gotta thank Renee for letting me help out, though it also helps her have some extra time to do some other things. And when you look at how busy it is here at the GayAuthors.org News Blog, you can see how the extra time can help. I mean, we started this week with the CSR Discussion Day for Your Alpha, My Mate by Wolfwriter. To kick off the discussion, Cia had a great interview with Wolfwriter about a variety of topics a

Premium Tuesday - No More Hiding

I'm back! A big thank you to everyone who helped cover me while I was on vacation and now it's time to introduce a new blog feature! So, this has been planned for a while, but I thought it would be great to start the new blog feature with the posting of a *NEW* story in the GA Premium Section. Each week I will be showcasing one of the premium stories that are available for those who purchase a premium subscription. Whenever a new story starts posting, that story will be the showcased story, but

Csr Discussion Day: Your Alpha, My Mate By Wolfwriter

Wow, the month is gone already! While the time is flying way too fast for me, it just means that today's the CSR Discussion day for Your Alpha, My Mate by Wolfwriter. If you haven't had a chance to read it yet, don't read down because the comments will likely be spoilers. To kick off today's feature, I have an interview with Wolfwriter. She's also agreed to come back and chat on the blog 'live' from 5 to 7 PM, CST, to talk to readers and answer questions. If you can't make it during that time, p

This is my last chance to play with the GayAuthors News Blog before Renee comes back and takes over again - so, let's make it good. We were saddened to start our week learning of the passing of GhostRyder15, one of GayAuthors' original Hosted Authors. In honor of his memory, we took a look at a recent story review that had been done of his Kombat Kids story.   Wednesday, we had the humorously titled, but VERY informative Cia's Torturing Me!

Rest In Peace: Ghostryder15 (1946-2013)

It's with great sadness that we report one of our Classic Authors, GhostRyder15, passed away in October 2013. Ghost Ryder was one of Gay Authors' original Hosted Authors, joining the site back in 2005. A military veteran of the United States Navy during the Vietnam War, it is no surprise that his stories are military themed.   Today we honor Ghost Ryder's contributions to both this site and gay fiction. May he rest in peace knowing his stories will continue to live on here at Gay Authors, allo
