    Me too! There's more to come until Christmas. Thank you for reading, Parker! I guess, Tristan's friends have bleeding ears.

    I'm glad you did! Thank you for reading and commenting. I agree.
  11. Baby, it's Cold Outside Chapter One It smelled of cinnamon, baked apples, and pine. People I vaguely knew carried trays with food, china, or candles, and slipped presents under the tree after winking conspiratorially at me. There were hushed voices, laughter, and giggling. Visiting Andreas' family in Germany over the holidays had been one of my better ideas. Comfortably settled on the big red and green checkered couch, I enjoyed a mug of hot Glühwein, glad to be inside again, after o
  12. Six years after Tristan saw his boyfriend kissing a woman on the subway, they meet again by unlikely chance.

    Catfish Squared

    These two drove me nuts. I think they have to move into an oak barrel and mature. At least five years.
  14. I just found my winter read. I saw the stories before, but there's always something. The review just reminded me Thank you @ancientrichard.

    It's haunting. Scrapes something raw inside me.
  16. Prompts after my story is finished-Prompts after my story is finished-Prompts after my story is finished. I really, really like #3
  17. A great question! Would it be better/ more effective if the authors 'click' or if they butt heads? @Cia and @Rob Colton. Yes please.
  18. Kuchen und Kaffee sounds nicer. (Cake and coffee)
  19. Hi Albert and Gary!
  20. Guten Tag! Val and I exchanged some of the first words/sentences we learned in various languages. English: The cat is fat.

    Translations

    Agreed. Not only the author's unique style, should be maintained, but their actual words too. Some mix translation with interpretation which I personally deem presumptuous, at least without marking it as interpretation. Thank you for your comment.
  23. I don’t think so. As much as my characters are in my head and I am in theirs, I am the one who makes them dance. Not that I think there's anything wrong with 'character led writing', "to each their own" . The protagonists are creations of the author's mind not by some foreign entity after all.
  24. @Headstall said it perfectly. That's how I write. You can thank @Valkyrie that my characters don't have an accent.
  25. When I first came across 'redaction' , I was baffled. ' Redaktion' is the editing department of newspapers, radio shows, news etc. in German. In English the meaning feels more like hiding something or censoring.
