Not at this point, no.

Memories filled Casey's head, lots of them, flying and slipping across his thoughts, laying in scattered piles on the bottom of his mind. Snapshots of the life he used to know, of a soldier and Ruler. Tylien's memories were his now, superimposed over his own life with his parents and Roma, giving everything a surreal, dreamlike quality. Now he was captivated by the sight of Raphael Rogura and Ra, circling each other, nude and beautiful. Their faces were drawn up in savage gr

My current story Insomnia definitely has some fantasy elements to it.

Urban Fantasy is my jam.

Great article. I LOVE the Star Wars reference and will point out that Luke and Leia kissed in Episode 4 AND Episode 5, but it's okay because they didn't know they were related until much later on. If they kissed while knowing they were related...well that would be very different story. I love the advice in this article though. Foreshadowing is hard and there are best selling authors out there that are really bad at it (looking at you Dan Brown). Like @Timothy M. said, sometimes I foreshadow without meaning to, as I abhor planning of any kind. If I had to do it deliberately, I'm not sure how good a job I would do.

I think this is something a lot of people needed to hear today, thank you.

Not really. Ben was expressing interest and when Galen shut him down, he backed off. But Galen isn't ready for relationship, not with Ben and probably not with Josh, which is part of what makes Josh's jealous behavior so annoying. Galen isn't his boyfriend and has enough on his plate to have to deal with Josh's moodiness. I hope Galen's time with the Sheriff is beneficial, although I am liking Dr. Snowden a bit more this chapter.

LOL. I'm not sure who would do more damage, Ra or Roma. Thanks for reading and commenting, the finale is coming up soon!

Glad you enjoyed it so much. If it makes a difference, I did write a scene that showed how differently time on Charion worked compared to time on Earth, but it didn't work with the epilogue, so I had to remove it. It had to do with how long Brandon's hair had gotten. Thank you so much for commenting! Book 4 is mostly a collection of short stories about the boys in college, so it's not something that I will regularly be posting, but I have fun writing them all the same.

I get what you're saying and I agree that 13-14 falls into a murky area (I've never written a romantic relationship with someone younger than 15-16).

I think the title of this post is misleading. You talk about not wanting to read about teenagers having sex, but by the end of your post you are referring to kids. They are not the same. Kids having sex is not okay. Writing about kids having sex is not okay, reading about kids having sex is not okay. (I have found this in the fan fiction world too, it’s called shota-something) Teenagers are different. I have written quite a few stories with teenagers, and sex is a part of their lives. I never had sex when I was a teenager, but I sure as hell thought about it a lot. Teenagers are having sex, so I don’t see why it is weird to write about it. But I don't think writing sex between kids and sex between teens can be put into the same basket.

Wow, Signature Authors were busy this week!

LOL. Jumping to conclusions is never good, but I love your point about landing in the arms of a traitorous champion of your enemy. (And sorry about your nails). I'll have the next chapter up soon. Thanks for commenting!

I'm glad you are enjoying it!

It's nice to see Galen being more active and getting out a bit, though it's obvious from the encounter at Jody's house that he is still far from okay. It's promising though. I wonder if Josh is aware of how much of a read Galen gets from his body langauge and expressions.

The good stuff is here. Lots of interesting memories coming back. Casey sure is fending off men right and left this chapter, isn't he? I think he kind of likes it. Thanks for commenting!

Oh snap indeed! Good instincts you had with Raphael. Thanks for commenting!

Casey sat up in his room, at his desk chair, doing something he rarely did for anyone, save Roma. He was playing his saxophone, methodically going through whatever sheet music he happened to come across, from "Unbreak my Heart" to "Georgia on My Mind" to Beyonce's "Halo". He was pretty sure that Roma had laid that last one out for him, hoping for a duet, but it was a nice song, so he played it anyway. Ra was sitting on his bed, listening while reclining back against the headboard. His l

Insomnia will definitely continue, it has a few more chapters. Nothing more is planned for Geeks right now because I have a very heavy writing schedule for the next few months. But who knows?

Mikeal has been through a lot and came out of it a stronger, more confident person. Thank you so much for reading and reviewing and commenting! Writing some more about these guys is not outside the realm of possibility, but I'm not making any promises.

Thank you so much for reading and reviewing and commenting! I'm so glad that you enjoyed Geeks! I love these guys too.

Probably the first time Hyacinth has been right about something. The boys have definitely come a long way and they're in a good place now, loving and happy. Thanks for commenting!

They've come full circle. The New Year's scene is one of my favorites. Thanks for commenting!

Lily is pretty cool, she would have helped him out if he needed it. Mikeal is a bit dramatic, but I think he said what he needed to say. Thanks for commenting!

Adam is a great boyfriend and I think his parents will see that once they get a chance to know him. Thanks for commenting!
