Chapter 29 Not Such A Bad Thing
Timothy M. commented on Headstall's story chapter in Chapter 29 Not Such A Bad Thing
I'm still at Adelin's initial giddy behavior, but I'll give her credit for the sensible compromise she suggested of a brother interview by Kellar followed by a mate interview from her. And I do agree it's her decision. Kellar can decide how much he wants to relate to Warren, depending on how they get along. -
Chapter 28 Interlude at Eagle's Nest
Timothy M. commented on Headstall's story chapter in Chapter 28 Interlude at Eagle's Nest
I can relate to the need to feel in control. But sometimes it's nice to give up control, as Kellar found out. -
Chapter 27 Leaving Home and Finding Home
Timothy M. commented on Headstall's story chapter in Chapter 27 Leaving Home and Finding Home
Those evil hunters have a lot to answer for. I hope they get hunted down and killed every single one of them like the vermin they are. -
Chapter 24 Facing Demons
Timothy M. commented on Headstall's story chapter in Chapter 24 Facing Demons
I still chuckle every time I get to the part where Kellar tells Tobyn to break the speed limit. But getting away fast was important. I liked how Tobyn trusted Kellar when he said he needed to make a call first, and the surprise revelation was worth the wait. The earth mother has her reasons. -
Chapter 25 A Pack Mentality
Timothy M. commented on Headstall's story chapter in Chapter 25 A Pack Mentality
Tobyn may be prejudiced against humans, but he's right on the button about pack being family. If Warren is accepted as Adelin's earth mate, he's family, warts and all. -
Chapter 26 Strength In Numbers
Timothy M. commented on Headstall's story chapter in Chapter 26 Strength In Numbers
Yay, road trips for the mountain man and his bossy mate, first with the girls and later alone. I'm so impatient to read those awesome chapters again, I'm cutting my comments short. -
Weekly Wrap Up (Jan 14 - Jan 20)
Timothy M. commented on Renee Stevens's blog entry in Gay Authors News
Ohh, I know this GA classic, it was fun, especially the first chapters. Hmm, can't recall how it ended... -
Oh, right - and I see Story Reviews in the list too on the Top Members tab. Hmm why couldn't I find it before ? Oh, well that's a relief, thanks.

I just did a little nosing around in the Leaderboard feature. There are lots of choices like Story Comments and Story Chapters, either per day, week, month, year or all time, but Story Reviews is not featured. Is this a mistake or is there a technical reason ) A lot of the other choices (Reviews of Events, Albums, Questions) have no content, which seems logical, but I miss the Story Review option. I'd like to see which story reviews are considered good, and not just who has written most of them. Reason for edit: Bhopper2 showed me the list for Most Reviews is still there.

Loved it - no cameras and no pulling out, just two men loving each other. I hope Erik mans up enough to say it as well as show it before he goes back to NY (I don't say home, because he's home wherever Ryan is).

Chapter 23 Comes with the Territory
Timothy M. commented on Headstall's story chapter in Chapter 23 Comes with the Territory
There's a time for intimacy and increased senses, and a time for cleverness and caution. And we go from the mystery of the malaise to the mystery of hunter awareness. Kellar made the right choice to give priority to safety over retribution for shifters. -
where is that drooling emoij when I need it ? But seriously, this is the reward you get for following your heart and the wish of the earth mother. It's beneficial for the pack, but even more so for the mates. Quite right.

"I love you Mountain Man." Oopps Tobyn finally says the L word and Kellar yawns in his face. Cracks me up every time. So much for sappy romance, the healer needs his sleeping herb - or rather scent.

Chapter 20 Taking Turns

LOL, the collective sighs of relief and emotions were fun to witness the second time around. The pitchforks were laid down for a wave of -
Chapter 19 Running Scared
Timothy M. commented on Headstall's story chapter in Chapter 19 Running Scared
Tears and Fears, that's all I can say. Even knowing what happens in this chapter, and after, does not lessen the emotional impact. That's what being a brilliant author is all about. -
Chapter 18 A Day of Reckoning
Timothy M. commented on Headstall's story chapter in Chapter 18 A Day of Reckoning
I was chuckling as I read all the heated (and a few defensive) comments about Tobyn. I'm glad you were prepared for the probable fall-out from this chapter. We were so focused on the two boys that we didn't discuss the impact Kellar's revelations must have had on the pack. He has turned their world upside-down too. What a shock this must be, but also one which holds out hope for the future. It's the revelation of the century, and one you've carefully built up to for 17 chapters - and it almost gets drowned out by the epic fuck-up afterwards. But the explanation remains one of my favorite moments in the whole story. -
I can finally point out the hint you gave when Kellar first met Elinor. He stood with his mouth open in surprise at meeting another shifter who had a similar pattern to one he knew already. At the time he had no clue why, but the talk with Miss Sybil made him almost certain. And now we also know why he thought Elinor's worry about not having a mechanic 'a golden opportunity.' It gave him the chance to bring up Denver and he cleverly manipulated the situation to make Elinor decide to go with them. I'm not surprised he didn't tell her or Tobyn - she would have been unbearably excited and he would have been unbearably grumpy on the whole trip. Oh, and I had to chuckle over the auto correct of earth mates.

On my third read I fond it interesting how Tobyn instinctively trusts Kellar. He know he'll follow him and be understanding and respectful, both during their talk and when they need to sleep in the same bed. It's more than the trust you have for a best friend, but it's also not just due to them being earth mates. Tobyn knows Kellar is honorable and trustworthy and later Kellar may realize and appreciate the compliment. When it happened it was mostly frustrating and painful - and for your readers too. No more tonight, I'm off to bed. I wouldn't mind having a hunky shifter to sleep with.

Chapter 15 Nothing's Written In Stone
Timothy M. commented on Headstall's story chapter in Chapter 15 Nothing's Written In Stone
Tilly the cliffie queen It's the second time her appearance has fans going uh-oh and begging to know more. Luckily for any new readers they can go straight to the next chapter to find out. -
As in returning doubts about being good enough for Tony, including how his body looks. @droughtquake had a good point about shedding body shame with your partner.
-
Are you channeling Kellar or Tobyn ?
-
Sigh, why does Tobyn ask the impossible of Kellar (and himself): Take your healer hat off Don't worry about what has me feeling unsettled We can be friends if we just get a little distance Forget about the old ways, including earth mates and look, we're not the only ones to get Kendall and Kellar mixed up.

The Last Herald-Mage Trilogy by Mercedes Lackey
Timothy M. commented on Myr's blog entry in Myr's Corner
Yeah, Take a Thief is another favorite too, as is the Owl Trilogy. I don't know the Magpie books, and I'm also missing the Anthologies. Time to go shopping ! -
Some of your readers can be patting themselves on their backs for various clever comments on this chapter, but you did a great job in reacting to their guesses. All will be revealed in due course, LOL. Kellar did ask most of the important questions, but not even Miss Sybil can tell him how to convince a stubborn Tobyn.

The Last Herald-Mage Trilogy by Mercedes Lackey
Timothy M. commented on Myr's blog entry in Myr's Corner
I couldn't agree more. It's one of the reasons my only attempt at fanfic takes place in that trilogy. My second favorite is Brightly Burning. I only have 23 Valdemar books, so I'm wondering which ones I'm missing. Maybe time to visit Amazon...
