  4. Once upon a time there was a site....it was a quaint little site with high quality stories and high quality authors. This site was run by one woman, and she worked hard to make it a site everyone could enjoy. There was no forum, and no blogs, but there were beautiful pages and nice layouts. It was obvious that the owner of the site cared greatly for her authors and her readers. One of the best aspects of her site was the lack of any political discussion. There was none to be found, and life was harmonious amongst the authors and the readers. One day, though, the owner was watching MSNBC and saw an anchorman giving a commentary. She loved what the anchorman had to say, and she wanted to emulate this man. She didn't worry about the fact that he was the anchorman of a show about politics, and that this was his field of expertise.....she wanted to have the same effect on others as the anchorman had on her. So she added a political forum to her site, and things fell apart. An author decided he didn't want his stories posted at her site anylonger, and in an act of spite and pure rage, she mass emailed parts of an email he sent to her when he asked to be withdrawn from her site. When she was advised in private by another that she was making a huge mistake and that she shouldn't have shared a private exchange with others, she became enraged and told the adviser that he should consider leaving her site as well. She was determined to be as influencial as that anchorman she saw on MSNBC. What she failed to realize was that she was already that influencial. She had an audience, respect, and a message that people felt comfortable hearing. What she was seeking was already under her nose, but she was looking so hard for it in other places, she missed it. Instead of continuing down the path toward greatness that she was on, she took a sharp left turn and now her site is no longer seen in the prestigious light it once was. The lesson.....when you find success, build on it, but remember what made you the success you were. Too many times in life, we seek the things we already have, but we're too blind to know that it's been there the whole time. BTW, the special site in my special story is NOT www.gayauthors.org
  5. I'm not sure if Gaeme meant for A letter to my son & Another letter to my son to come off as comedy, but I thought they were hilarious, especially when I listened to the sound file on Real Player.... For people who haven't read his writing yet, you're missing out on something special.
  6. Wow, they have a vote Democrat banner on their site..Im sure the DNC appreciates that....NOT!!
  7. I usually see two chapters a week. Jan It's our slow season
  8. Actually, we have all volunteers....there's a Queen (ahem!), a guy who watches TV and eats while the Queen writes, four Beta readers, an editor and six Nickolas James Excellence Awards committee members
  9. I think Kerry might have screwed the dems...lol
  10. Hmmmm...it makes me think.....ok, I've got it....I'm launching Operation Gay Majority, a campaign to put curves in as many straights as possible.....Buwahahahahahah
  11. Well the Anthology was a smash, and I'm not too surprised...there's a lot of great talent here, and hopefully they'll get the notice they deserve soon enough, especially Camy, Greame, Dark Shadow and Birdsofafeather.....to me they're the three best efiction writers we have, and it's almost and injustice that they aren't moved up to Shared Hosted. Cjames is really good too, and the more he writes, I'm sure the better he'll get. So anyway I went to CRVboy and posted a reply on the politics forum, since it's obvious that no one else seems to participate in it, and I was attacked right away...the funny thing is, I didn't address anyone....I just addressed an article that was posted, and all of the sudden, I was accused of not wanting to live in the US and of thinking that other countries are better...so anyway, now I can see why only one person posts in that forum. I think he hates competition, so he just attacks everyone who comes along. It seems like he hates to be challenged on his views, so I kindly told him that I wasnt addressing him, and that most of his posts were mindless. I'm sure he'll love that The forum over at CRVboy is pretty much dead anyway...it kinda makes me wonder why it's even there. I mean, compared to the forum we have here, it's a ghost town. Codey's forum over at Codeysworld.com. Also, I joined the AwesomeDude forums, and then I checked out AwesomeDude Radio, and low and behold, a certain author we all know and love was singing a song with his group I won't say who it was *coughs* Camy! *coughs* but I think it was neat to hear him singing....for an old geezer of 99 he sure gets around. I also heard a certain Moderator from this site doing a promo So after I didn't recognize any of the songs, I sent Dude a few files of something decent (2pac, Al Stewart and Journey) and I promised him I'd find something else to send along so people can actually hear songs they LIKE..lol....j/k Dude. I've been watching the news about the elections, and I have to wonder if the Democrats really have it as tied up as they think they do....something tells me that they're celebrating a little too soon. They really ought to be paying attention to what the republicans are doing right now, because if they aren't careful, they're going to be wondering on November 8th what went wrong. I think there's more repub voters who'll be going to vote than the dems are counting on, but we'll see.....at this point, I really think it's a mute point. The democraps, the repukes....is there really a choice there?? The only things the reups have over the dems is that they aren't sissy la la's when it comes to defense, and the only thing the dems have going for them is that they havent been screwing things up for the last 12 years in congress. Well, we'll see
  12. Bwhuahahahahaha.....I'm in miniture Hershey's heaven The person below me hopes I remember to add a person below me line to this post
  13. Well considering I was born in 1991, yeah, I'd have to say that most stuff from the 90's is old...besides, it's almost the end of this decade, so in reality, the 90's are old
  14. Thanks Everyone....your posts mean a lot to me, and I promise to keep working hard to get better each time I sit down to write a story, or even a chapter
  15. Ok, so the anthology friggen rules...thanks again, Kitty, for putting this together for us all......as always, you did a great job...oh and so did all the contributors
  16. That would have RULED!!! :ranger: :pickaxe:
  17. awww...how romantic and sad...I felt so bad for Nick, but I feel happy knowing that he gets to see his boyfriend five times a year ...also, it was good that Peter got kicked in the head. He needs a swift kick in the ass if you ask me
  18. Myr, You've built something so special here, and everyone who passes through this site feels it. I had never even thought about writing a story or a poem until I came here, but I joined the forum here and found a supportive community that gave me confidence to try. From the Forums to the Blogs, from the Library to E-fiction and the Author pages, this site has always ruled. Thanks Myr
  19. Man, that was something else......good story, CJames I thnk Kevin makes a good point about the Muse....maybe if he'd have been writing about a sorrid gay love affair with two over sexed characters, he might have gotten a pleasent surprise (well, unless he was straight )
  20. Well as long as Hoppy and Beethee are happy, maybe Jake can help himself ....nice story, Camy
  21. Dark. mysterious and gripping.....I think the obvious tragedy was the loss of Grace...I'm guessing she was his mom, who died after he was institutionalized, because she wept about not being a good mom....Good job, Birds
  22. Good Jog, Bardera......I like how you said, The Accident, but you didn't say what kind of accident. Leaves it up to the imagination.....I can picture a youg Lucas, on his way to tell Brent how he feels and tragically, he's killed by a pack of wild dogs or a combine.....beautiful
  23. Well maybe you'll trick us by giving us the treat of posting it at midnight eastern time
