Considering Cadet ran through May 2024, and this chapter takes place in December 2021, there may be more recycling on the way! But there's a lot of new stuff in between!

Glad you enjoyed it, ma'am. Being the youngest one in the family does attract most of the adults' attention. At least the sober ones. I'm noit sure what Northman's reputation was before we met him, but I suspect it'll be crap soon. News will spread, CJ has a way of making friends and allies, so Stephen may find himself isolated at the embassy. And all because someone has upset his little fiefdom by going above what was required of him. Petty individuals tend to bury themselves.

Thanks! I split their time in Vail into three chapters, so there's two more coming.

Pandemonium's a good word. LOL Ritch's been out of school and in Vail with the dads for a week, adding CJ, Owen, and Liebe to the mix should make it a tad more interesting. Let's see what they get up to.

Have you read Cadet? That's where Heinrich was introduced. As for Northman, he's digging his own grave.

As I mentioned above, it took me 3 chapters to cover their Christmas trip, so there'll be a lot of time with the three of them together. Here's a spoiler, there are great interactions coming with cousin Rod and cousin Randy too.

I wonder how big the diplomatic bag they carried was? As for who opened the door, let's hope it's not the Russian!

First Nordstrom and now Nostrom... I'm getting the feeling you guys don't like him. Part of this chapter was recycled from Cadet. Same for the next two, but I tried to add enough new details to make them interesting.

I love it when typos make me laugh. You turned Stephen Northman into an upscale store! LMAO The ambassador may have a few choice words for him again.

I learned my lesson. It now bugs me too.

Hopefully, I took care of all the derailed cars. And I'm still dealing with the aftermath of that wreck. Flynn, or his kids, may make an appearance some 20 years later.

Without naming names, how often has someone been elected who immediately disappoints those who elected them. We got an inkling of her personality when she asked CJ to run with her, but the real witch is now on display.

CJ does have a way of worming his way into people's hearts. He's not unique, but as you say, people like him are rare. I wanted someone who would act as a kid most of the time but managed to appear older and wiser at times. His personality will continue to unfold in coming chapters and stories.

All I'm Thinking About
Carlos Hazday commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in All I'm Thinking About
Friends, and sometimes mere acquaintances, can come in handy when one needs help. This is CJ while in high school, can you imagine what it'll be like when he's in college? -
He's not the only one. I've been blessed with multiple readers sticking with me and CJ for years. If you take a look at the chapter reactions, you can tell by the dates who followed the story from the beginning and who came along after. I love tracking binge readers' progress by the likes and comments.
-
Some great ideas for future events! Too bad I didn't think of them.
-
LMAO He also likes Dr. Pepper and will become addicted to Verdelho wines from Australia's Hunter Valley. But I'm getting ahead of myself.
-
With his fathers' friends around him all the time, CJ will get a crash course on gay relationships among other things. Let's hope he's able to distill those teachings into a positive self-image.
-
I end up writing a lot about CJ's travels. It gives me a chance to share personal experiences or to plan out trips I would love to take. As for the saying, it's an old one. Not sure I remember when, where, or how I heard it, but it stuck with me, and was too good not to use.

Harley's grandparents should adopt me. Who wouldn't want a grandfather who grows pot and bakes brownies?

Most of the time... but watch out if he gets pissed.

“Where do you think you’re going, Mr. Abelló?” Arms crossed, Stephen Northman glared at CJ as he walked by the supervisor’s office. “In case you’re too distracted by your social calendar, may I remind you there’s important work to be done?” The man was a pompous ass. Thankfully, CJ was saved from replying by Jimmy Chen speaking up. “Good morning to you too, Stephen.” The sarcastic tone fit with Chen’s previously expressed growing dislike for the man. “CJ has a meeting with me and my

great minds... I blame @Mann Ramblings because he did it to me all the time when I started writing. (Sorry, couldn't resist.)
-
Some of those tenses seem to filter the action not making it as direct as possible. While they all have their uses, and I sure as hell have included them all in my writing, I tend to focus on using simple tenses. I think they make the event feel more intimate. I do have a phobia about using forms of start in conjunction with verbs. I tend to change those while editing. My comment is always let the character do something instead of always saying they started walking, started talking, started thinking..... Thanks, Myr.
