The boys are back in town. I am so happy to see Jerry and Chris, even if it isn't the happy sort of tale they usually involve. At least you can still see the love and understanding between them. Nicely handled.

KC, I've said it before and I'll say it again, parts of your life scare the hell out of me. Glad to see I could help you get this out. No denying how you pull from your own life to make these things come out as they do. Horrific story and can I just say how grateful I am you are still here. Wayne

A tale of how close it came. Thanks for reading Joann, and naturally for commenting.

You really turned everything upside down with this one. Glad to see he had a friend who would stand by him that had a family that wasn't as screwed up as his own. Nice job.

Well JB wasn't as bad as you thought he would be. The whole story sort of sets up an expectation and then challenges it the entire time. Felt bad when you seen him sort of falling apart because he couldn't keep from telling JB the truth.

Thanks Dolores. I'm glad people are enjoying it. Will just wasn't fast enough to realize what was happening, but once he felt a choice had been made he wasn't going to cause waves.

Thank you Daithi. I am glad it went over well, but even in real life Will didn't get him.

I read them all. Now just have to comment. Lol

Aww. The things one does for love. I also liked the way he stacked the odds in his favor. Really sweet little tale Cassie.

You have it all in this story, Dolores. Murder, sex, theft, and a mystery. Nice little whodunit tale here. I really enjoyed it.

This was such a different look at the topic. I like the choose your own adventure ending. Jemm was interesting leader for the group and I felt so bad when he was left with little choice. Nicely handled all the way through.

You have the perfect set up for a full story here Cia. I loved how he thought he was hiding out only to have the Captain come out and tell him he knew the truth the whole time. Nothing like a little prophesy to complicate your whole life for you. So Miken is royalty and bonded now to Ipisov, but you have yet to settle the necromancer issue. So many threads left open here. Can't wait to see what you do with them.

I am a huge fan of Heart and this just shows how these ladies rock.

I'm sorry I missed this Dennis. I hope your day was a great one.

Okay, there are a few things I am doing today. 1) The cold is letting go so I don't feel like death warmed over. Yeah for sleep. 2) I have a few little things to get out. Cards, birthday gifts, and all that jazz. 3) Rework my eating habits. Went up instead of down for the first time in two months. 4) Give myself time to mend. This isn't so much physical as emotionally and mentally. Losing someone you have come to love and depend on is hard. Worse when you know there is nothing you can do to save it. Just need time to mourn and heal. 5) Get the beta the story.

Who wants mud in their ..... ? Yuck

What is that Dragon Boat Festival all about?

Can anyone fit in your backseat?

I always loved my grandmother's VW Bug. Where do you find yourself going most often when you are in the bookstore? Anime, Science Fiction, Young Adult, etc?

I think, like most people, I don't take the time to stop and look at my life. Sometimes you have to decide if your life is going where you want it to, taking you to new exciting places, stopping you from growing, or just plain becoming a train wreck. Presently not sure. Three years ago my life altered. I don't care how old you are, when you lose a parent that changes you and your life. I had been out on my own, living a life, not a great one or a bad one, just a life. I had friends and had hoped to make someone I was seeing something more. In a short period of time I lost focus on my master's degree, my boyfriend decided he was more straight then gay, and my father fell apart without my mother and asked me to move in to help him. I had a lot to think about. What was I giving up? Could I survive being under the same roof with him again? Would it be a benefit to him and to me? I thought at the time it would. This past week I have been informed that since I am not able to do as I had been he wants to finish cleaning out the house and put it up on the market this fall. He plans to move into a single bedroom apartment. I am not sure where that leaves me at the moment. My job is a dead end and I am no longer happy there. Unfortunately. until my back is healed enough that I know I could afford to be without health insurance, I must remain at my current employment. I am also unsure if I could get health insurance at another job now that I have a pre-existing condition. So work remains a problem. My father is his own little issue. His health isn't the greatest, but that is another whole problem. He is due for surgery sometime within the next year and his doctors place him at 50/50 odds of coming off the table, but if he doesn't he will die from the problem with his arteries. Then there is that thing called my love life. I had a chance at love. Lets just say it didn't go as planned. I am too slow, too old, and far too much of an idiot to do what I should have. I don't ask what I should, or say what I should, when I should. So instead of having someone as a lover, I have somehow made myself into sort of a confessor figure while he prepares for his boyfriend to now pop the question. I really should just stay in my tower. I have less issues that way. Oh wait, my tower is being sold. Make that a nice cardboard box. At least I have my friends. Somethings in life come and go, but you find out who you can count on to keep your spirits up and hang on to them. Sorry, just really trying hard to find something to point to and smile about. Finding out a lot of things lately and very few seem to be good news. On the bright side, since I have time now I have been writing. My anthology stories are among the longest stories I have ever written for an entry. I have a new story in development that is nearing its finish. Sorry, after Jonas I refuse to put up any story unless it is complete so I don't leave my readers waiting. Now overhauling Seeon so that it can go back up and hopefully won't have any more issues with it. Then, god help me, I plan to go back and fix Accidents Happen. When you learn what you are doing and then go back to look at the mistakes of earlier work, you sort of cringe. The story is basically alright, but lord do I head hop, and include far too much outside work (song lyrics) that would prevent that story from every reaching the people the way it should. It suffered from multiple betas and editors. All of that is my fault, so I do plan to go and fix it. So I have basically a few things I plan to get done before my life hits another wall. Time will tell if my father is actually planning to do what he says or does he plan to change his mind. All I can do is plan for changes and hope for the best. So you might see a flurry of work from me and then who knows. All I can say is my life isn't boring, though I don't always know where it is going to take me. Till my next time to unload. Wayne

Well Ted left a lot to be desired. His sister needs to know more about the guy then he is gay. If she is going to use that to find him a date, he is going to have a hard time with her. Trey is appealing. Onwards to the next chapter.
