    I'm pretty sure Andrew won't want to tell anyone why Billy punched him. But let's hope George has a good answer. I bet he's proud of Billy for telling him and asking his advice.

    Malcolm seems a decent guy, even if he does have naughty pictures of Chris. But I guess we would think differently of him in this day and age.

    I like that the boys appreciate what George is doing for them. The caning at school brings back memories of reading books where the story takes place in English boarding schools.

    Settling In

    Timothy M. commented on Ivor Slipper's story chapter in Settling In

    George is a good guy and very progressive for his time - we have to remember this was when homosexuality was still illegal in the UK.

    Getting There

    Timothy M. commented on Ivor Slipper's story chapter in Getting There

    I liked the matter of fact tone, but why on earth are two British boys circumcised ?? To me as a European that came across as really strange. Is this because you originally wrote the story for a US audience ?

    The Danish composer who wrote the tune Alley Cat died the other day age 95. Apparently, when the tune was launched in the USA they made up a story about him having two cats, Tim and Tom, who inspired him to the melody. According to Wiki the tune was used in a number of movies, which I didn't know. Oh and his artist name in English: Bent Fabric

    Story

    Timothy M. commented on Greg_A's story chapter in Story

    I actually agree with you about Liz in general, as I don't like pushy extrovert people, who don't respect us introverts. But unless she actually jinxed Adam's car, she didn't play matchmaker or set them up. She only encoutaged him to go for the guy he liked anyway, and she kept his secret and didn't tell Gary. So maybe I shpuldn't have given her that much credit for introducing them.

    Story

    Timothy M. commented on Timothy M.'s story chapter in Story

    LOL, you have a point, but in Ken's defense he didn't have that many options, since Colin didn't socialize with colleagues. I suppose he could have started to volunteer at the shelter, but I think that would have been even more awkward and probably more wrong than woeing Colin at work. In Denmark at least, quite a lot of people meet their partner through work, if not at college. PS From you comment here and on another story, I'm guessing you may have witnessed or experienced some bad examples of work place romance. Did you notice Colin had the same opinion at the beginning of the story, but he decided he and Ken were not working so close together, that it mattered.

    Ugh, that pastor is too clever, but at least Robbie has the right attitude about being gay, and Sue even backed him up. I hope Robbie gets back together with Nathan, just to spite Don.

    And leaving some great comments. I'm not leaving comments, because I've edited several chapters ahead and I'm afraid to make spoilers. I bet you can relate to the old cottage parts , they did make me think of you too - I thought you were already reading the story, or I would have included you too in my plug for the story.

    @Headstall Whan your eyes get better (hopefully soon) I'd like to recommend Brian's new story Any Day. You'll enjoy the descriptions of the cottage and the planned renovations from chapter 8 onwards. Reminds me of some of your stories.

    At least you are with him (which I'm sure your mum appreciates) and I hope you can comfort each other. Annecy is a beautiful town and the lake is great. I hope you get at least some nice weather.
  13. Timothy M.
    It's always difficult to switch POV, especially in the beginning of a story. But in Storms I think it soon becomes logical and gives us a much broader perspective on the situation.
  14. Timothy M.
    A very promising stat to your new story. I'm hooked and eagerly waiting for more. You even have a sensible hero, which is my favorite.
  15. Timothy M.
    And don't forget the Review Team welcomes your recommendation of a story. Short or long, we're happy to help you promote your favorite. And you'll also get the chance to be mentioned in the Weekly Wrap Up, the way @spikey582 was today for his awesome review..

    Friday (Evening)

    Timothy M. commented on Drew Payne's story chapter in Friday (Evening)

    Is that what we call a win-win-win situation? I'm very glad Aunt Kate got a nice bonus from defeating the nasty laywer firm. Kudos to Simon for calling Jeff at once to tell him.
  17. Timothy M.
    Hmm, I may have to dig out Rob to use the prompt by Carlos.
  18. Timothy M.
    For once a story I haven't read, so I'll have to give it a try. Great review @spikey582
  19. Timothy M.
    Looks good. I like the Pot Luck idea. Hopefully, it will bring in more stories. But I also think it's a good idea to keep the themes, because it's interesting to see the differnt takes on the same topic.

    I Promise

    Timothy M. commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in I Promise

    LOL, you seem to be doing the rounds of stories with guys who are dragged out to bars by well-meaning friends and happen to find their soul mate. Did you use a special tag to find them ?

    Tillykke fra Danmark

    Thank you, you are most kind, and such encouragement is sorely needed to restart my writing. My motivation disappeared after I was given some rather harsh evaluations of several stories, and I haven't been able to work my way out of the slump yet. But I'm determined it will happen on day, and your praise is a nudge in the right direction. I'm very glad you liked Frankie, he was a fun challenge to describe. I want to see him through the eyes of detective Kasumaki next.

    So what is worse; the openly stupid and loud bigotry of Tyler or the ignorant and insidious ways of Nadine ? She can probably do more damage than him, so I'm glad Simon stood up to her.
  24. Timothy M.
    Well, at least Nathan is honest. Poor guy, I hope he recovers completely, but I'm still disappointed about the drug use. Oh, and Don added another reason to hate him.
  25. Timothy M.
    I enjoyed the story, which started out simple from a fun prompt, but soon escalated into a complex story with lots of characters and twist and turns to keep track off. I was impressed you managed to keep it all straight. Do post-posting editing was a challenge, too.
