New Story : "Lower East Side, Spring 2003"

[benashton]

Hi everyone -

 

I've written a few stories before, but I took the next step and published on GA. There is a vibrant community out here and I hoped I could benefit from your insights, reactions, comments, and suggestions.

 

Let me know what you think -

 

Thanks to all

 

- Ben

Heya Ben,

 

I saw the new story added and I always check out new stories.

 

Your story is definitely one I want to read; it's actually on my "To Read Soon" list. When I saw how long the first chapter was I knew I would have to put it off until I got some uninterrupted time.

 

But I can't wait to read it.

 

Good luck here. You'll find everyone is so nice, helpful, and generous with their time.

18,000 words god almighty, I'll give it a go as I always read first chapter of all stories and from the first few paragraph I read, I'm looking forward to reading it when I have a few mins or hours free.

Thanks !

For what it's worth, this is a self-contained story, that is, there's only one "chapter". I look forward to hearing back from you guys.

Take the time to read it.  You won't be disappointed.

I read this in one sitting, it was easy to keep going because it was such a fun read. What a wonderful story: complicated and rough and just, well, it went in completely unexpected places and I learned some things and hated some things and loved reading it the whole time. I want to read more.

Thanks Gene, and I'm happy that you "hated some things"... The story is indeed all about ambivalence and was designed to stir up conflicting emotions.
