Comicality Posted July 1, 2010 Author Posted July 1, 2010 Also, Agin, you mentioned a story called "Masquerade" but you didn't give a link or an author. I can't find it anywhere, so let me know so I can get started on August, cool?
Agincourt Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Also, Agin, you mentioned a story called "Masquerade" but you didn't give a link or an author. I can't find it anywhere, so let me know so I can get started on August, cool? Actually the link is embedded in this post -- you just have to click on it -- but here it is: http://www.nifty.org/nifty/bisexual/highschool/masquerade/ And what I just noticed is that the whole story has five chapters, which is convenient.

Nephylim Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Sorry hun, little confused. Does that mean we read one story a week in the order you've listed them? I'm cool with that. WIll start reading the first one assuming that's what I'm supposed to do. If not cant hurt anyway can it
Agincourt Posted July 2, 2010 Posted July 2, 2010 Sorry hun, little confused. Does that mean we read one story a week in the order you've listed them? I'm cool with that. WIll start reading the first one assuming that's what I'm supposed to do. If not cant hurt anyway can it I think the idea is to start reading each story on the first date shown, then post commentary on the second date, which also happens to be the date to begin reading the next story. So I have started Dan's story. A
Comicality Posted July 3, 2010 Author Posted July 3, 2010 Exactly.Start reading the story on the 'read' date, and then we 'review' on the seconddate, as westart the next story. Is that a bitmuch? Should we have a break in between? Let me know...
Agincourt Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 The next story is hosted at Nifty in the High School section: http://www.nifty.org/nifty/gay/highschool/matthew-figures-it-out/ A
Agincourt Posted July 9, 2010 Posted July 9, 2010 I'm really liking "Matthew Figures It Out." I'm already in the 5th chapter and can't seem to put it down. A
Agincourt Posted July 13, 2010 Posted July 13, 2010 I actually read all of Matthew, which is in something like 22 chapters. It's a great story, very emotional in places. Now my problem is that I have to go back and figure out what I can't talk about because it hadn't yet happened as of chapter 5. A
Johnathan Colourfield Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 Yeah i believe so Nephy has an advantage She wrote it
Nephylim Posted July 19, 2010 Posted July 19, 2010 I've been away so I think it's only fair that I read Matthew figures it out and comment on that before you comment on mine. In fact I might leave the country when you comment on that one

Agincourt Posted July 20, 2010 Posted July 20, 2010 I'm up the chapter 3 on "Enigma," but it's only Monday. A
Agincourt Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 The next selection, "The Pastel Cowboy," is here: http://carlholiday.gayauthors.org/cowboy1.php A
Agincourt Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 (edited) Me again. I've started to read "The Pastel Cowboy," which is the next 5CBC selection, but after slogging through much of the first chapter, I'm not inclined to go on. It's just too much of a downer for me. I think I'm going to sit this one out unless somebody posts strong reasons to press forward. A Edited July 31, 2010 by Agincourt

It's just too much of a downer for me. I think I'm going to sit this one out unless somebody posts strong reasons to press forward. I'm just bumping this thread to remind people that I will NOT be starting a thread on "The Pastel Cowboy." Today is review day for that story. Someone else will have to jump in. A P.S. -- I actually read a ways further in the story, but find I really have nothing to say about it. It was not my cup of tea at all.
