Thanks for all the help getting this ready. I appreciate it.

Yes, sometimes it's that simple.

Well their sex life is healthy. Here is Hoping the rest of the relationship stays healthy too.

“Well that sure didn’t go as I had hoped.” Neil walked into the nursery carrying Maryann and I followed behind. The funeral and meal afterwards had been exhausting and we were glad to be home. I watched Neil as he curled up in the rocking chair and held the baby gently, looking very upset. “Well who expected to see both grandmother’s trying to feed her non-stop.” I sat on the rug and watched as Neil rocked slowly in the chair. His full attention seemed to be on the baby. “Yeah, well I hope sh

It's Friday, Friday, Friday. Oh it's Friday and that means new prompts for all of you. Hopefully you have all had a good week. Well not to keep you in suspense any longer here are this weeks prompts. Prompt 242 – Creative Tag – The Prize Your favorite author and artist ran a contest to have the winner become a character in their comic strip. You won, so what is the comic strip about and what is your character going to do in it? Prompt 243 – Creative Tag – First Line “I never make a promise that I don’t intend to keep.” Hopefully one or the other will catch your attention and make you want to write. Last week there seemed to be a lot of commentary as the two topics were both written about. Now while there were some really interesting takes on the topics, I couldn't help but notice Andy's story. I thought it was really creepy. What do you think? . There is more to his story which you can find on the by going to the prompt here - http://www.gayauthors.org/forums/topic/37208-prompt-241-creative/ While you check out that prompt you might want to read the responses to other one from last week which can be found here - http://www.gayauthors.org/forums/topic/37207-prompt-240-creative/ Enjoy and keep writing and commenting.

You sure threw a twist into that one. I like the creepy ending. At first I thought you were doing a Ray Bradbury update on the Electric Grandmother but this was so much more horrific.

Happy Birthday Slytherin! Enjoy the day you Grumpy ol' bear.

I'd say I'm afraid, but I'd be lying. Just go write already, geez!

Ah another Friday has arrived and you all know what that means ... I get to torture you with a new set of ideas to get you writing. Every week is a surprise and I never know when someone is going to take up the challenge and post one of the prompts. Last week, Kitt didn't even bother to post her tale in the thread for it but put it right up on the Prompt Me! page. Okay enough chatter out of me, here are this weeks prompts. Prompt 240 – Creative Tag – List of Words Use the following words in story – a present, a gold ring, a taxi driver, a new novel, and a pretzel. Prompt 241 – Creative Tag – The Toy Store You just became the manager of a toy store. What sort of toys does your store stock and what are your customers like? Every week I like to look at what was done on the prompts and this week is no different. Mann Ramblings let us see what is going to be part of an ongoing story. I was struck by the characters he was introducing and thought everyone should get a peek at it. To see the rest of Mann's story and what some of our other authors have come up with feel free to go and read their work. It can be found here - http://www.gayauthors.org/forums/topic/37160-prompt-239-creative/ . Don't forget to leave them a comment or two to help encourage them as well. Have a good week everyone and don't forget to write.

I'm glad you enjoyed the story Andy. It wasn't an easy tale to tell but it seems to have done the job. Thanks for the comment.

Thanks for reading and commenting on this. Seems so many people don't like Sean's choice, but both men were truly good men. Just life doesn't allow you to get your cake and eat it too. Someone was going to be hurt, because that is the way of the world.

Yeah. I like to get my readers involved from the beginning. The whole family is going to see a lot of changes in a fairly short period of time. Some will be bad, some good, but it will leave them all changed.

I'm glad you are liking the story so far Stephen. My mother use to say that small children and animals were great at picking out good people. Time will tell.

A baby really changes the way you see the world. Neil is already wrapped around her finger. Naturally there is a lot more to come.

The baby is named after her parents - Maryann who was her mother and then Francis for Frank. Yeah, that is one of those details that most parents have to make, whether they want to or not. Glad you are enjoying this KC.

“Somehow I just never expected this.” I looked over to see Neil holding Maryann Frances Weaton in his arms. The baby was so wrapped in pink blankets that she resembled a sort of pink burrito with a bottle sticking out of it with happy slurping noises coming from inside. “What didn’t you expect?” Mom’s voice broke through the silence and brought Neil’s attention to her immediately. “Being a father or that your whole life could change in a day?” Mom glanced around and finished preparing the baby

Just swinging by to wish you a Happy Birthday.

Well I keep falling for Ash. Hate to say it, but still not sure about Mike.

Asher is a really sweet guy. Mike is the one I am not sure how I feel about yet.

Poor Ash. This should be an interesting meal.

Mike is turning out to be a pain in the ass. Mr. Waters doesn't seem to influence his coworkers or leave them looking to help him. Poor Ash.

Nice opening scene. I have had to deal with my share of Mike's in my life. Glad Asher is such a straight up nice guy and didn't take advantage of Mike. Can't wait to read more.

I'm back! Did you miss me? Last week the prompts were interrupted by our Roll The Dice Anthology going live. I do hope you took the time to read them all and leave the authors a review. Anyway I have some nice new ideas to get your mind going and hopefully find you writing again. So for your writing possibilities I present these two new ideas. Prompt 238 - Creative Tag - The Offer You haven't been on a date in months and truthfully, you've let work take over your life. Then out of left field your co-worker asks you out. However, it isn't a normal date they want. What is the offer they are making to you? Prompt 239 - Creative Tag - First Line "Just give me a minute, please." So hopefully one or the other of these might appeal to you. Curious what others have done? Well if we look at the last set of prompts there were a few authors who picked up the gauntlet and created some interesting answers to the prompts. We had a new author attempt the prompts by the name of Kitt. Let me show you what Kitt created. So are you curious to what else Kitt had to say? I hope so. You can read the rest of her story and the rest of the authors who decided to use this prompt here - http://www.gayauthors.org/forums/topic/37104-prompt-236-creative/ You can read the responses to prompt 237 here - http://www.gayauthors.org/forums/topic/37106-prompt-237-creative/ Have a good week everyone and hope to see your response here next.

Well they are short but I try to keep your interest in them Slytherin. I will have to thank KC.

Thank you Lisa. Yeah, life has a few changes lined up for the boys. I rarely hold back any punches.
