I have done short stories but only every showed them to friends or college professors. In my youth I was an avid reader. Sadly, I fell prey to adulthood and left reading behind. Due to surgeries, I have ample time to read. Horror is by far my favorite genre. Steven King is the fist word in the horror genre. while I have respect for his craft and many of his stories, I would not call myself a devoted fan. H.p. Lovecraft, Poe, Kevin J. Kennedy, James Lefebure, Nic Brady, and James Kaine. My horror preferences are eclectic, spanning everything from slow-burn psychological tension, to grounded realistic terror, to the the super natural, and everything in between. Drawn to all corners of the genre, my creative roots are deep in supernatural, psychological, and grounded realism horror. Sadly, some of the medication I take contributes to brain fog and stifles my creativity, but I am navigating my way through this haze and slowly reclaiming my creative voice. I think that will do for an introduction. I look forward to exploring, chatting, reading, and posting. Thanks! That first giant step taken(joining)! Your fellow writers have given their hellooos. Let me be the first of the thousands of regular GA members to say hi. Welcome aboard. 4

I also seem to remember your name, or perhaps it was one very similar I have seen. Welcome. Perhaps @Myr or @Cia could answer if GA usernames can be recycled after a certain amount of time, or if they are blocked from re-use. This is a great place to read stories of many types. Premium is worth it, in my opinion, because access is so much quicker without having to click around ads -- especially on my phones. Happy reading! 7

I do appreciate the ad-free browsing the most, but knowing I can support the site is nice. Not many places like this left. In fact, I know of no other that is similarly story-focused. Thank you for the warm welcome! ☺️ 4

Evan S. Posted August 23 Posted August 23 Hi everyone! I wanted to introduce myself. Very excited to be posting as an author on GA. My first story is pending moderation but I wanted to give you all a sneak peek in the meantime. It's called THE FRAT DAD, and here's a synopsis: "A filthy, voyeuristic M/M college erotic romance packed with frat-boy exhibitionism, sexual awakening, and forbidden desire. At Westmore College, getting into Phi Delta Mu can change your life. For Will Mercer, it could mean friends, connections, and the free room he desperately needs. He just didn’t expect it to feel this damn good. Suddenly he’s caught between Derek, a jock he can’t stop fantasizing about; Benjy, a shy fellow outsider; and Duncan, the rugged older house dad whose past is an enigma. Will came looking for a place to belong. But beneath the frat’s horny games lurks something far more secretive." 2 1
