Weekly Wrap Up!

Hope everyone had a great week and for many, hope you are having a wonderful extended weekend!   Reminder: SonoLuminus has decided to participate in Light the Night, a walk to raise funds for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. She has dedicated her walk, and even named her team, in memory of Robert (aka Trebs) who passed away on August 7th after a long battle with Mantle Cell Lymphoma. To learn more about Light the Night and how you can help support SonoLuminus, please visit the lounge topic.

Being as there was no weekly wrap up last week, we'll be looking back at the last two weeks in this edition of the blog.   On Monday, the 4th of August, and the first Monday of the month, Cia announced this month's choice for the CSR Book Club. Her choice for August is, In The Depths of Despair by InTheMindOfSunshine. The discussion day will take place on the 25th, so there's still time to read it if you haven't already done so!   On the following Tuesday, we had our weekly Premium Tuesday p

I hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend so far and that you are well rested for the upcoming week. As always, lots of things going on the GA News Blog this past week and now it's time to take a look back to see what you might have missed.   Fans of Cole Matthews got a treat for the CSR Discussion on Monday when Cia interviewed Cole. Not only did readers get to read Cole's answers, they got to ask their own questions. Want to know what Cole is working on next? He answers that and more, so c

Renee is off playing so I get to sneak in and give everyone a review of this, our last week of June. Can you believe after Monday that the year is half over? Wow! We had a great start to the week here, with a review by Renee of Promising Author Dark's short story The Matchmaker is Grounded. It a very sweet story and a quick read that will bring smiles to your face, and Renee does a great job of enticing you with her review.   Continuing on with our Premium Tuesday feature was a look at Coin in

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.

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

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

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! This was a great look at GayAuthors' posting system,

He thoroughly enjoyed the story and if the other comments are anything to go by, so did some of the other readers. Also, it looks to me like his review even drew a new reader to the story, that's always a great thing and one of our
