    It Was a Holy Day

    So the guards beat up the Heir's future Bound husband, well, that should cause trouble for them I hope. And they both contracted an alien disease, hmm ? I loved the way Rix put his obnoxious relative Torzet down.

    It Was A Monday

    LOL, that test had me interested from the start and I guess Puck got shipped out to a space station or something. Shame about the purple-haired lover not keeping his guards in check, and I hope he's looking for Puck and not thinking he got stood up.
  3. Hmm, I had hoped this was progressed further than the short story which did have some kind of conclusive ending. But I guess between the two stories we have a good idea of their lives being forever entwined.
  4. Thank you, tim I try to.
  5. I'm beginning to like Tine, he's clever and will lead his Imperial a merry chaise more than once, I bet. I'm glad he spoke about Aiden, and I feel sorry the friends were separated.
  6. Well, let me put it another way, then. I'm continuously amazed and grateful about the number of people who read my stories, compliment them, and ask for more. I rarely feel the stories rate the praise, or that I can compare to some of the brilliant authors here at GA. But it's great to strive for improvement and have my readers point out when I do better or give them pleasure with my efforts. I also think there are some very good authors here on GA who do not get the attention they deserve, and I'd prefer them to be the ones promoted, rather than those of us who have plenty of GA friends and readers and fans. In other words, you all give me so much in return for my stories, that wanting more promotion or attention would make me feel greedy. Silly, I know, but there it is.
  7. Different than the original short story, but I like this version. But why is Lizan holding out a red tunic, when Tine is already wearing one ?
  8. Not quite soul mate at first glance, but the attraction is definitely there.

    Chosen

    It's a wonderful story and the best is we get to read more of Tine and his Imperial Lover in the longer version.
  10. True, but what if you feel your stories have all the readers and attention they deserve? Or if, like me, you're having problems getting stories finished and don't wan to put even more pressure on yourself? Then advertising for more readers doesn't feel like a good idea.
  11. I did the Improve and Encourage, but I must admit I'm not keen on any of the others, except maybe the first one. However, I do most of my story recommendations as blog reviews. You offer some excellent author promotion chances, but perhaps most GA authors are too modest or shy to avail themselves of the opportunities.
  12. Yes !! It's extra annoying when the person quoting only adds a few words or an emoij at the bottom of the long quote. And I'm on a laptop so I dread to imagine what it's like to scroll so much on a mobile device.
  13. Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me. Wanna join me in cheeping for a sequel ?

    Story

    LOL, yeah, reading the story again I realized why Kaden had problems finding a boyfriend. He was so shy he didn't even notice when someone was attracted to him. Daniel must be more sensitive and caught the vibes of interest strongly enough to dare the gift of mistletoe. I'm surprised the tenants didn't insist on knowing who the Secret Santa was, but I assume that was against the rules. I wouldn't mind having a sequel to this story - massage included.
  15. I was pleased the evil miners were brought to justice. It will make others think twice if they are tempted to do the same.
  16. I'm happy it was fixable.
  17. But I can't put an embedded link in the Notes either. That's why I'm asking. It's much more important there, and I can easily do without in the Chapter text.
  18. Those friendship words exchanged between Peter and George never fails to warm my heart.
  19. In the text editor for this topic there is a Link symbol next to the Quote symbol. It is a small chain link to the left of the ” symbol. We used to have the same symbol in the text editor for story notes, chapter notes and chapter text. I often use them to refer to topics in the forums, eg story discussion topics or special prompts, as in my fire extinguisher story. However, this option is not available at the moment. I get around it by going to a topic and preparing the embedded link and then copying the words to the notes. But it's a bit cumbersome. Will the link option return? If not, is that a sign you don't want us to use it, but would prefer non-embedded links? I apologize, if you've already covered this matter elsewhere. I'm on a laptop with Google Chrome.
  20. As you might guess from the blog review in December AC Benus' Famous-Barr Series are my favorite Christmas Holiday series. But if I have to chose a stand-alone story, I guess The Old Ways by @Valkyrie is probably the favorite so far.

    No Surrender?

    Jeez, you set my heart racing with this one. Scary, but at least Raif has someone who cares about him, has been looking for him.

    Chapter 4

    Absolutely awesome, except now I'm hungry and kinda envious, since we don't have Thanksgiving here. I'm delighted Erik admits to Ryan being special to him and worth the effort to build a relationship. And He can get a family who's worth more than the shitty one who rejected him. So good to see Ryan's instincts are perfect for this too, offering understanding and comfort.

    Chapter 23

    Shane came a long way towards be OK after the terrible life he had. If he had been with his grandmother during his earlier years, he wouldn't have survived or been capable of love. It was most satisfactory that his father and Brian's mom went to jail for a long time.
  24. Thank you, glennish, for reading and commenting, and you're absolutely right about Peter needing his family around him. I'm also eager to add Kim to the mix, hopefully in the next chapter. Patrick did take a large step forward, and he'll be able to focus more on happy memories rather than grief over the loss.
  25. Aawww I hope it's pleasurable tears somehow. Or maybe tears of laughter over the spider-and-eggs incident.
