    Unless your name's Owen or you've received an invitation. LOL

    Brad's luckier than most returning, injured vets. As for Gamon, I keep imagining this cute Asian American kid with almond eyes and silky black hair. To this day I haven't made him gay or straight, but I can imagine him having men or women flock to him.

    My goal's always been to show different aspects of my character's life. And CJ's a budding foodie but I'll draw the line at posting pictures of every meal on Instagram. LOL

    Patrick has relaxed sufficiently and CJ's like the safest person to come out to in the world. That kid probably feels like a ton of weight has been lifted off his shoulders.

    Lucky Town

    Let's just hope they don't get him in trouble! That's easy to do in a place like Chicago.

    A Man's Job

    Much later in the series, I describe one teacher's disgusting attempt to teach young kids about the Holocaust. That was based on real events taking place a couple of years ago. Hatred and discrimination are alive an well and should be confronted and called out whenever and wherever they occur.

    The River

    All of us have had our ups and downs.
  8. @Albert1434 Great song! As usual, I tried to stress the relationship between family and friends. Ritch's being integrated rather well, and Levi gives CJ ideas for future travels.
  9. Fine, I'll keep writing. I started the final chapter for a new story yesterday so I guess I'll finish it. Spoiler: it includes politicians and travel. Do we have secret meetings? Or a cool handshake requiring 14 different hand moves?
  10. Liar!
  11. @Myr The notification surprised the heck out of me; I still can't figure out what half the metrics on GA are or how they work. However, now that I've reached level 14 of 14, does that mean I'm done? You're putting me out to pasture? LOL This one I wasn't expecting at all.

    Sounds as if you've led an interesting life.

    Higher 13

    The mark of a good leader, regardless of age or experience, is their ability to step up during a crisis, remain composed, and handle whatever needs doing. I'd say Trevor's been playing Beta while in school but when the poop hit the fan he did what was needed. He's been forged in fire. Aiden's proven to have made the right choice for his second. That group, including Ethan and the three meatheads, will be a force to reckon with for years to come. The McKinney's are desperate, they were driven out and, with Trevor's assistance, their funds are being reclaimed. Whatever millions they may have left won't help them. Even if it's hidden inside a mattress. I think lycan retribution is in order. Can't be that smart after all, they willingly take on a couple of Elementals? Bah!

    @raven1 Glad you enjoyed this chapter. Compared to your mother, Brad will have an easier time reintegrating into society. At least for as long as he keeps his head out of a bottle of booze. Advances in treatment and prosthetics continue to evolve. At some point, I mention if what happened to him had taken place during WWII or Vietnam, he probably wouldn't have survived. Loyalty's a trait CJ will frequently display. He'll look after his friend.

    Thank you! CJ spent the first few months surrounded by older individuals and that I'm certain was beneficial. But he's still a kid and needs to hang out with peers so I can get them in trouble. LOL

    And I saw it spelled with an H for the longest time. Geography plays a big part in that since I'm in the Americas and you're closer to Europe than I am.

    GMA X

    @raven1 Political correctness, as well as many other well-intended movements, can be carried to an extreme. They can become toxic. I believe we all have the right to say what's on our minds, but I reserve the right to ostracize anyone who uses what I deem offensive in my presence. An ex's father used the N word once too many times around me and my bf never spoke up even though he knew it bothered me. It was one of the reasons leading to our break up.

    GMA IX

    CJ and Owen will enjoy martinis plenty of times in future stories. Their preference's for gin, dry, with blue-cheese stuffed olives.
  19. @Anton_Cloche Just trying to make it easier to choose a victim. LOL BTW, I just realized i have a character named after you in a future story. Anton has a small but significant role.

    GMA VIII

    Most followers drool over pictures of CJ and Owen; it's good to hear some of you like the other stuff too. LOL

    Even after the guys enter 'real' life, the occasional trip to New York will continue to be a regular occurrence.
  22. That group of friends, plus a few later additions, will be together for a long time. And this trip will be a great memory for all of them.

    GMA VIII

    @raven1 Yeah, Albert's zipping through the stories. LOL Remember you can always discuss my stories in the CJ forum thread so you don't bore anyone in the other one. LOL

    GMA VIII

    Thank you @raven1 This one ranks as one of my all-time favorite chapters. While I covered a couple of important issues, it was fun to wrap them in lightness. Although martial arts can provide a way for kids to defend themselves, I believe they would benefit from practicing any sport. The structure and work required can provide benefits for a long time. The Readers Choice efforts are great, but unfortunately some stuff I consider crappy's made the lists. You can see bias in the nominations when some individuals nominate every story ever written by someone. I've tried to limit myself to what I consider the best one for each author. So, how's your friend doing with his binge-reading? Close to catching up to you? I expect dueling comments at some point.
