Weekly Wrap Up!


Personal Announcement: For those of you who have been following my health status, here is the short story version - I may be more absent from GA depending on my upcoming treatments. The best part of that though is a recent test confirms that I am IN REMISSION (ie, no current trace of Mantle Cell Lymphoma - so the chemo worked). My sister comes in later tonight for two weeks, the first week will be tests to confirm she's healthy enough to be a donor, then the second week to stimulate production of the stem cells and collect them. They'll freeze the cells, start my prep probably at the end of the month then transplant her cells after 9 days of prep. The whole point is now that my body is in remission, basically use her immune system to help KEEP me lymphoma free (ie, cure it). So - I'll be around here and there, but Renee and others will be picking up my slack :thumbup:

 


So back here on GayAuthors.org, we started the week, as we will be starting all months, with an introduction for the Can't Stop Reading book club feature, with February story being Nowhere Man, by Promising Author Jwolf. Last month's feature generated a lot of interest and comments, and I look forward to our February discussion day of Feb 25th.

 


Wednesday, we had a fantastic look by Myr at Software, Browsers and You - which included information on some of the technology changes of GA.

 

As always, we ended the week with two really creative Writing Prompts from our PromptGuru Comicfan. We're also very happy that it looks like one of last week's prompts has "prompted" the author to consider turning their response into a two or three chapter story!

 

So - how was your week?
