Cole Senior is a real piece of work, I'll give you that.And yeah, it's totally Nate's job to do the work now - he knows he's wrong. Taylor is too strong for fake apologies and too smart for grand but empty gestures. we'll see, eh?

He's not on his knees already? OK, so he nearly is, but I promise nothing will happen to Cayman. Good horses deserve better.I like the idea of a tape on loop, and that's pretty much where Nathan is right now.

I wonder what kind of switches Mann had under there. Blue Alps maybe? Addy - take care of your cables! I think mine suffered because I wrapped it up and put a cable tie around the bunch which kept them permanently bent over. damn it.

Nathan stood in front of his mirror and flicked his shirt collar up in order to begin the laborious process of wrapping his tie around his neck. He had always thought that ties were some kind of torture device. They were hard to do right and felt like a noose around his throat, but there was no way Nathan would be seen without one. Not today. It was gloriously sunny, in some defiance of the probability of early November rain, and as Nathan stepped out of his trailer he scowled up at the cold cle

Clem will find support of a very specific sort.I'm glad you're enjoying yourself. Thank you.

First off, this entry took forever to write because of all the typos. If any make it through, do forgive me. I write, it's what I do. And because I spend so long doing it, I am very aware of how I type, the motions I make, and the relationship I have with a keyboard. For a long time now it has shocked and appalled me that most people never think twice about their keyboard. They want a machine with all the fancy specs, but they don't care, or know, anything about the main interface they are going to use to interact with the thing. Most of (you) will be using touch screens for your browsing by now, but I doubt that many are using that to actually type anything. And trust me, what you're using at work will be a standard, shitty, 'squashy' keyboard. Lever up a key, any key, and underneath in a little silicone nubbin. When pressed, it makes the electrical circuit and you get a letter. That silicone nubbin is the bane of my life right now. I am a haptic, tactile, touch sensitive person, and so I bought the most wonderful keyboard. And when I say wonderful, I mean mechanical. Now if you don't understand what this means, I pity you, and look it up. But basically a mechanical keyboard uses actual mechanisms so that when you push a key something happens underneath. There are lots of different switches, for those who like tacky, or hard, or clacky, or soft but loud, or a dozen other sorts besides. I have (had) Cherry ML switches, which make a 'soft' noise but give great feedback. For those of you who are now confused, this means that the keystroke registers before the key is fully depressed, which gives 'bounce' to the typing. The upshot of this was an increase in typing speed of 30%. Yes, thirty percent. A third faster, just by switching to a keyboard designed to actually be used rather than one produced for cheap. I kid you not (and everyone wonders how I write so fast). And being carried out in my bag everyday for two years has taken it's toll. Not on the keyboard, but on the cable, which has died somewhere inside, rendering the whole thing useless. I am going to be forced to do some creative slicing to fix it. In the mean time, I am stuck with the crappy, squashy piece of shit this laptop came with. the keys are flat, there's no feedback, I miss keys all over the shop, and the shift is just too far right and I always hit \ instead. So here I am with my dying laptop (he's old now), and my rubbish keys, and ideas which were moving too fast for my fingers before I lost a third of my efficiency. But I am a writer, and therefore I will be here, writing, regardless.

He's not being a great boyfriend at the moment, is he?

I hope he doesn't let you down!

Weekly Update Weekly Wrap Up!
Sasha Distan commented on Renee Stevens's blog entry in Gay Authors News
crossword, crossword, crossword! I have no idea if there is a way of making an interactive version, so people could save it and fill it in themselves, but that would be cool too. -
He's got a long way to go...
-
"baby steps"... teheheheheI'm really glad you're enjoying it already, and I agree with you that even though he is an ass, there is something in him which is worthwhile. I like the idea of him currently being Taylor's "perk"

I swear you must know everything! I didn't know he had written for a lot of others, but it explains why I was so so drawn to his stuff. If I had to pick one album, it would probably be that one.I'm glad you like Taylor, I think he's gonna be fun. As for Nathan's father - that is exactly why he accepts it. Regardless in his mind, Nathan is still a man because he's not a pansy, not weak, and is more butch and buff than most of the straight guys around there. I can't tell you anything else though. Thank you sweetie!
-
Oh Irri!I can see I've done my job well, because he's worse than he was before, but now you care about him in some uncomfortable sort of way. Hang on sweetie, you're in for a bumpy sort of ride.
-
thank you, and you're welcome. Cole Senior is a douche, no doubts about it. and yes, Taylor is a confident and confusing creature to Nate - we'll see how he gets on.
-
this is true. trust the Sashaforce
-
oh he is selfish, but he'll learn!
-
you guys do such good analogies... makes me jealous. He's got a long way to go, but it's nice to know that he has people rooting for him.
-
haha! I don't think I've ever had a pre-review before. but I like it! I'll count you in, don't worry about that. Looking forwards to hearing what you think.
-
Thawing is a nice word for it... nice one. I hope that you find more room in your heart for Nathan. He deserves a second chance.
-
Super, I am very happy that Nathan's "biggest fan" is pleased with the beginning of his new beginning. He is going to have to come a very long way...

After getting dumped by Clem Linton, Nathan Cole spends his time breeding and training horses and sleeping with who ever he pulls in Austin nightclubs when drunk. After he wakes up next to Taylor, Nathan starts to realize quite how wrong his outlook on life is. But dealing with how low he has sunk and being willing to find the strength to pull himself into redemption are not quite as simple as galloping across a field.

Nathan Cole opened his eyes and wished he hadn’t. The world was too bright, his ears were ringing, his brain felt like someone had squeezed it, and his mouth tasted like… someone else. Nathan rolled over to find out what he’d done, and found the bed beside him empty. It was also, unsurprisingly, not his bed. Nathan’s bed did not have clean white sheets offset with teal and steel grey throw pillows, and there certainly wasn’t the lingering aroma of very expensive coffee wafting through the air. S

Sasha Distan commented on Sasha Distan's story chapter in Chapter 11b - Epilogue Part 2
oh I don't want to drive anyone to drink! everything else i'll take with bells on!Will I make you love Nathan? Well, I ended up loving Nathan, and so did Ma, so I'm kind of hoping you'll at least come around to his side of things.
