Thank you! That means a lot to me

Sorry about making you impatient, but that's probably a good thing Thank you for your kind words. I try to balance everything out and make it fun to read while setting up the characters, Again, thanks for reading and leaving a review. Your comments makes it worth while to continue the story and to write it in a way that's entertaining.

Yeah, its no tat and its sad as well. But, if the boys will do the right thing in the right way, both can come out on the other side stronger and free from the past. Thank you for your review and editing Trevor.

Thank you Conner! Yeah, all the hints are there. Now the question is, how are the boys going to handle it?

Chapter 4 Black Clouds on the Horizon I walked back into my room stunned. I haven't seen anyone that scared since Timmy threw a baseball through the Presbyterian Church’s window back when we were eight years old. I looked over at Roger and he looked almost as concerned as I was. “I reckon he’s in for a whopping from the way he talked on the phone and acted after he hung up.” Roger said. “I don’t know, but he sure acted scared to me.” I said

Thank you Mike for taking your time to read the story and leave a review. It encourages me to write a better story. Chapter 4 is with the editors.

Why be sorry when in fact there is a story within the poem. Here, I used the imagery to give you a taste of what was a traumatic time in my life. The story is my fight with my fears and how I was able to overcome them with the help of my family and friends. Thank you for taking the time to read it and leave a review. It means a lot to me. Again, Thanks!

Happy Birthday KC !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for reading and taking your time to leave a review. That means a lot to me. Thank you. I can't say exactly what's going to happen, but maybe with a friend like Andy, things will get better. But you're right, no matter how things turn out, it's a sad situation.

Time tells all tales as I like to say. But Joey did seem upset for some reason. I like to comment on something here that Conner brought up. I really do like to give credit where credit is due and Trevor deserves a lot of credit for taking what I hand him and making me look a lot better at this than I really am. I don't know how Joey feels exactly; but it appears Andy sure likes what he sees when he's looking at Joey. But will he overcome his fears to let Joey know? Again, time tells all tales

Yup, pay the fiddler! Around here there's a lot of square dancing going on every weekend with the fiddle and banjo as the main instruments. So pay the fiddler here is the same as pay the piper. No fiddler, no square dance. Thanks for reading and your warm comments. They make writing the story worth while in ways a lot of people don't understand.

Trials and Tribulations Chapter 3 is now posted. A story about the trials and tribulations of Andy Collins and friends as he confronts his sexual orientation in a small mining town of Pine Hills nestled away in the Appalachian Mountains of Eastern Kentucky. Trials and Tribulations

Chapter 3 New Friendship I figured, sooner or later, we would be called to the office, but I didn’t expect it to be within ten minutes. This was one of those consequences I had said damn to. I guess it was time to pay the piper. I shrugged, threw my arm around Joey’s shoulder, and with more confidence than I really felt, I told Joey, “Let’s go see Mr. Horn and get this over with.” Turning to Roger and Timmy, “Look, I’ll just tell Mr. Horn

Happy Birthday Nephy

I think it's a secret. I'm not sure though. Maybe we'll find out in the next chapter. If someone would get off their butt and post it! And everyone should be a little more neighborly, dontcha think? Thank you Conner!

Howdy Sam You're welcome! And thank you for taking the time to read and leave a comment. It means a lot to me

Thank you Bleu. It's people like you and the others here leaving comments offering your support and encouragement, make it easier to let the words flow from my imagination onto the screen and/or paper Thanks again!

I didn't whine. Well not to shamelessly! And what do you think is up my sleeve? Thank you for taking the time to read and comment on the story Wayne. It means a lot to me!

Oh WoW! Thanks Wayne. I hope everyone will like what's coming for Andy and his friends. Some stuff will be an eye opener and some just plain scarey.

Thank you Tom! I'm glad I'm able to let you and maybe others connect with good memories of days gone by

Chapter 2 New Feelings I saw movement out of the corner of my eye, and turned to see Gary staring questioningly. I just shrugged and turned back to that blond who had captured my curiosity. I was now on high alert. I finally knew his name, Joseph Matthew Adams. But besides his name, the fact that he was new, and had blond hair, I knew nothing else. Well, I knew he was in my homeroom, too. Without ever seeing his face, or knowing an

Thank you for your kind words
