I love that, Octician instead of Optician!

Promises made

Back then using the internet was restricted by time of day, charged by hours used, and as slow as a snail. It was also the wild west, a place where you could do what you want, and GeoCities, Tripod, and Angelfire gave you access to create free websites, you only had to learn html! This freedom gave a space online to share across the world whatever you wanted and allowed for minorities. Allowed for gay stories, forums, and group sharing. Comsie was in there somewhere at the start of something that became great, huge, empowering, and did so much for so many everywhere. Comsie made an unforgettable impact and he will be missed, a pioneer, an author, and an all round good guy.

Another episode comes to a successful conclusion. These deceive (+family) investigations are v enjoyable. My only “criticism” is that the individual stories are not double the length to allow for more development and depth. But,hey, they are short and very sweet as they are. well done, Chris

Oooohhhhhhh... Cliffie ... my favorite.. Bwaahahaha!

What a sad day! I don't quite remember how I came across this site but I am pretty sure New kid in school was the first story I read. And I was so excited to know what will happen to Wesley in Savage Moon since @Comicality posted a new chapter after a long pause. My deepest condolences to his family and friends. He will be missed. His writing style was unique

Well done chapter, Mateo needs to leave all of them in their little bubble of misery!! Mark has proven to be a monster, NO EXCUSE, forgiveness is out of the question. Henry's too weak to handle his toxic snake, parading around as "the good wife"! She should know what a whore is, she's a first class one. Mateo needs to find himself and stop being the resident doormat for everyone of them...looking forward to the next chapter

"If I were Bruce’s therapist, I’d have him think about why he bounces so quickly from one lover to the next. Is it a sign that he didn’t get enough love from his father? Or is it a way to compensate for perceived failure in other aspects of his life? " I think that when you walk inside your life with your soul's eyes really opened you recognise real love. Maybe Bruce crossed this line and found his real track.

@Comicality was one of the first authors i read by choice and fell in love with his caring heart. Comsie you will sadly be forever missed, but never forgotten.❤️

Wow this sh*t is getting real, the idiots don't know when they are beaten, however they will learn the very hard way when the bars in front of them suddenly appear, I wonder if you can burst a blood vessel by blushing, because they are trying very hard to do that

Falsified promises

Can't really put my own words here - so I'll quote Com speaking as Billy C from Book1: "I'm in one of my moods today. Not a bad mood, really. But not a good mood either. It's one of those days where you just want to do 'something'...but you have absolutely no idea what that 'something' is. I'm inspired to make a move, but not motivated to make a move. I'm sure this feeling leaves you once you get older. At least I hope it does. I'd hate to think that this is normal. Not much to say today. A wasted entry for this little journal of mine? Nah. I suppose everything is important in its own way. Who knows, I might look back on this someday and be glad that I wrote it. Even the little, unexplained, moments of life can be kinda cool at times when you look at them from a different perspective. Later!" (Loved the guy and not sad he leaves so much work unfinished - it's a metaphor for his life, as I see it) - peace to us all💔

You probably have no idea how good this makes me feel, but it truly does. I love hearing about your history, and that you could hear your roots in the dialect. I have worked hard at attempting to get it feeling authentic, and now I often think in it. I don't have to do near as much editing as I did with my first western, but I do have to be vigilant of something slipping through... and also of overdoing it. I'm also happy to hear you are finding it a great story. There's still a lot of this tale left so keep sharing your thoughts if you can. I love these characters, and I hope you do too. Thanks, mdm! You've made my evening. Cheers! Gary.

This is great story! Thank you! I can hear some of the older folks I grew up around. My father's people but especially my mom's. My dad's folks were farmers / ranchers but mostly bootleggers. Hmy mom's dad came from Kentucky Hill folk, not sure what brought them... most likely hard times.. They never talked about it lol so I'm sure there's skeletons buried... Her mom's people from Alabama slowly lost everything (large plantation) after 1865. My Grandmother was born ontheir way to Oklahoma for the landrun not far from Cushing/Drumright area... the farm is still in the family.... All this to say thank you! I literally can hear this dialect and tone being spoken as i did listening as a kid evenings outside undershade trees or telling stories to us evenings. My hats off to u! Not many could pull that off anymore with your accuracy!

Look Alike Day is a fun holiday invented to celebrate identical twins, clones, copycats and anyone else who you look like or who looks like you. Dress Alike The unofficial holiday with unknown origins encourages people to dress up and look like someone else. This person could be someone you look up to or a celebrity you are a fan of. How to Celebrate? If you know your look alike, spend the day with them. Dress up identically and copy each other's mannerisms, and have fun with people struggling to tell you apart! Find out what celebrity looks like you. Dress up like them, talk like them and walk like them. If it is a singer you look alike sing their songs the whole day long. If it is a author, then read out lines from their books every time you speak with someone. If you are on social media websites change out your display picture and replace it with your look alike's. Make sure you take permission from the owner of the picture before you do so. Did You Know… …that it is said that there are at least 7 people in the world who look like you? *** Our salesman at the electronics store was pitching a high-definition television. A fellow shopper, overhearing the spiel, mentioned that he'd upgraded his regular TV to high-def. "How'd you do that?" my husband asked. "I dusted the screen." *** A woman walked into the elevator tossing her keys up in the air and catching them. After one too many tosses, she dropped the keys, and we watched as they disappeared into the crack between the open doors and the floor. I felt terrible for her. Or I did until she cried, "Oh no! Not again!" *** Two American tourists are driving through Wales. They decide to stop for a bite to eat in the village of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogo- gogoch.* Baffled by the name, one of them turns to a local and asks, "Would you please say where we are—very slowly?" The Welshman leans over and says, very slowly, "Burrr-gerrr Kinngg." *We kid you not! The 3,000 people in this community on the island of Anglesey must spend hours writing their return address. *** A garden center customer picks up a container of insecticide and asks the salesperson, "Is this good for red ants?" "No," says the salesperson. "It'll kill 'em!" *** My diminutive aunt Flora, just four feet, nine inches tall, accepted an offer to visit a health club for a free session. After being greeted heartily, she was shown where she could change and told an instructor would soon be with her. Having changed her clothes, Aunt Flora went back to the exercise area. Along one wall she noticed a silver bar that was not in use, and decided to try her hand at chin-ups while she waited. She jumped up, barely reaching the bar, and managed to strain through two chin-ups before the instructor came to her side. Smiling politely, the instructor said, "If you want to let go of the coat rack and follow me, I'll be glad to help you get started." *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** sandrewn

Many questions and challenges happening in this chapter @J92. Adam deserves what ever bad things happen to him and his bunch of thugs. Jail or worse for kidnapping and beating Thomas. Although Adam (or somebody else) put a hand over Thomas' mouth, they didn't use chloroform to knock him out. Perhaps Thomas will see and grab the emergency (glow-in-the-dark) trunk lid release handle and escape if the car stops in traffic? (or will driver behind see it and call police?). But when Thomas was grabbed from behind, "... his phone is pulled off his hand and chucked into the open trunk". So the question is, was his phone "chucked into" his own trunk, or the one he's been thrown into? Clearly Adam is as deranged and homophobic as his "bible thumping" parents, all of whom are determined to change Thomas back in to the 'Sophie' he was born as. They refuse to accept his gender identity issue which he has (apparently) physically and probably surgically has changed from FTM.

Yup, my head is spinning trying to keep track. All I know is it sounds like you're gearing up for a big yank on the heart strings. If the next chapter gets me emotional I'm so throwing you in the dog house. But all serious great build up. Does anyone one have any nails I can bite? Mine are already down to the cuticles from the anticipation. Dang flabbed artists and cliffs.

Certainly a complicated chapter with a range of ethical and legal (in Dracul terms) issues being considered. We need to await the resolution of that consideration. I agree that it looks like the household getting bigger. The relationship between Josh and Craig is interesting and has a number of outcomes. Josh's reaction to Greg feeding Charlie suggests that, for now at least, it is a parental bond. I want to see Josh feeding Craig. Now, what about Chipper? Who will be feeding him?
