I only know about other peoples' crushes (like a lot ). I don't ever crush on anyone.

Same comment. An order the way you did it works since they are families in marriage, but the comparing the relations inside the families is harder when thay are in diff chapters here. I think lists so far didn't miss anyone.

You should have put them in a family order, that would have been nice Well, I'm sure this will help peeps out too, much more than reading without the list. Now they have to do some individual thinking OMG XD

This is a good addition to help readers follow the story as it grows bigger and bigger Too bad I have already drawn a familytree and gallery of the characters Darn o_O

The start was quite a shocker. I snickered how you made sex sound mundane, almost a duty and pleasant (when Chris made an effort) at the same time for Eli. So he is "thrilled" about his bf, but obviously that is some form of self deceit. I liked how you told about the flow of writing Eli got. Just saying Crush can make you write. Really good start. Ps. Poor Eli, he needs some serious cuddling

After the rocky start Ross finally found his place. I'm happy. This story made me happy.

I could tell that this story came from your heart. It felt so raw. In a best possible way. One of the best stories I have read in a long time, stands out shining.

Thank you so much for sharing this story. **reads**

Yes! Yes! I think Rosalyn is marvelous! Poor thing. Despite the horrible and unfortunate things happening to her, she is a trooper. I can't stop reading, there is going to be something good happening in future, right... This story makes me happy, so far everything in the the way you tell her story is easy flowing and the characters seem so real. Looking through Rosalyn's innocent yet sometimes suffering eyes is a trip much more deep than I expected. **reads**

OMG. This is a strong start. The end left me with shivers. I'm looking forward for the rest of the Rosalyn's story.

Oh wow. That was a touching story. Maybe the other broter's heart just broke when his companion in life died? I could never crasp the unique relationship between twins. I'm an only child so understanding basic sibling relationships are not my speciality either.

grr... Double review here: you did so well I just want Clive and Phil together. Ps. If you arque, you force me to leave my first trible review

You built up the tension so well! I just hoped that you wouldn't have brought in that third wheel. Sucks I never do that haha... Looking forward for the next chapter

I will book flights next week

That was beutiful again, Sam. I really like your poems.

I curse in my stories, I haven't noticed anyone else practising censorship on them but me, myself and I. If I think my story has too much "questionable" language , I might consider a warning in the chapter note, but I haven't seen that nessesary yet. I think the rules in chat and forums and blogs are slightly different with stories maybe? Artistic freedom or something? I might be wrong... wonder if some rule has gone pass me...

Finally I dot started! Poor River, I feel sorry for him. I wonder if Silver is beyond help? Or are the options for Silver different than what River wants for him. Maybe Silver needs something River can't give to him. What about that sexual position? The only way I saw it possible (I tried even drawing it...) was: A) They had no spine Their spines were made of rubber C) River had a donkie the size of hulabaloora You got me pulled in again to the world of Silver.

**kicks the Universe for torturing my Nephy** I hate that things happen always the hard way. I know how that feels... You seem to be spiralling now, but remember that you can only get up from there. I wish I could be there to help you with all this shit.

No pink, nooooo.... jk I'm happy to hear that things are going well and into the right direction --> a baby flicka I'm sure the momma will know her rightful place and do as you have all agreed and signed to do. If not... *** Try not to stress about it since there is not much more you can do. You'll be such handsome groom I bet Mike will be too Joyful waiting!

LOL Don't worry. It took me three months to figure out how to navigate here and get cosy. Now that I feel I know all the dark corners of this site too I'm happy with all features. I use most of them and find them easy to work with. You can always ask around how this and that works just like ceelow did with the author status question in this thread. Feel free to pull my sleeve if you need any help If I don't know how to help, I can always point you to the direction than can do it better. Enjoy the site! Give it time, take it as an adventure

I see it like this: there is the review section to give supportive and maybe light reviews. There you can point out a what ever comes to your mind directly after reading. There you can let the author now in general what you thought about the story and how you felt after reading it. Sending personal messages to the authors is something I'd also do, especially if you want to give/get specific criticism. It is always nice to ask if they want it though. I love interacting with other authors. In public reviews I seldomly leave negative comment's but I think I can see some good points every single story I have read. I have no need to put myself above others and try to find the holes in the stories. If I don't like them, I just generally move on fast and read something else. If the author has put their heart and soul in to the story, I appreciate it. I never read stories written by people I dislike. That is my choice. I would never leave a neg comment because of my personal feelings about the author, so I just rather skip the story. I feel it is ridiculous to put oneself above others and comment from high up there that some story doesn't deserve a) the amount of reviews b) the positive reviews c) the rep points d) the hype... I'd say everyone feel free to WRITE, READ and COMMENT, instead of scrutinizing other peoples actions. I think being polite has nothing to do with sucking up with people. Being nice has nothing to do with lying. Being active and supportive to your friends is not away from others. There is a line between constructive criticism and negative criticism. Respect and be respected. I would not want to see GA turning into this competitive dog eat dog world. With this said, I still personally would love the honest feedback. It just shows that the reader has actually read the story, focussed on it and wants to offer the author advice. I'm thankful of the feedback I get, I try to get learn from it even if I don't always agree with it. Via PM I have gotten a few pretty honest feedback that did not praise my work, but were left with thoughtful insight, humour and support. I treasure them most. The biggest truth came from Collan: all authors take feedback differently. Some never see any flaws in their own work. The fact just is that not everyone can be pleased - not the authors or the readers.

I would love to get straight forward criticism and see the weak points in my stories since I really am a forever learning writer, I started wrtiting only 6 minths ago so I'm grateful to get constructive fb. Even if I write with great passion and enthusiasm, I don't take it too seriously. Unless the crit is intended to be hurtful or belitteling I'm HAPPY to get it

**sigh** That was beautiful beyond anything. Knowing you wrote it with your heart made me almost cry. Happy one month anniversary guys! I think you two will have a wonderful future together.

That was erotic. Wows. Kissing can be so much more than a full deal.
