    You've Got It

    Carlos Hazday commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in You've Got It

    I try to use sex scenes to advance the story. In this case, it serves to show CJ sowing his oats a bit and his dads maybe realizing their teen's acting like a horny teen. Getting a teenager to live with them full-time had to be an adjustment for Brett and Cesar, having someone outside the regular circle give his take on what it's like helps give us a different perspective.

    @Jaro_423 Consider it an opportunity to learn a bit about new stuff LOL

    High Hopes

    Carlos Hazday commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in High Hopes

    Although Harley's grandparents are a tad older than I am, I wanted to include some Baby Boomers in the story. They're a bit different than CJ's grandparents who appear on a regular basis, and that was by design. I've tried to populate the series with as many different types of backgrounds as possible.

    @Jaro_423 Hope things clear up a bit in future chapters. Part of the reason I write about travels in the US and abroad is to share knowledge of places people may never visit. I think stories are a great way to learn about different cultures and locations

    Carlos Hazday commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in GMA XIV

    I did work as a tour guide a couple of summers while I was in college, maybe that's what I'm channeling. Dialogue, in my opinion, is a better way to provide details than too much narration. Much more active. In this chapter, the info about Silas and Patrick could have been dealt in a couple of lines but I like the way it turned out. We get a better feel for what's happening. Thanks, Jeff!

    @Mikiesboy If I recall correctly, it was also the cheapest lodging during that trip

    Carlos Hazday commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in GMA XIV

    Unlike CJ and Owen, when I'm on a long motorcycle trip, I rarely make hotel reservations. I like the freedom to deviate from the planned route and schedule. I was caught in the rain near Bangor, Maine late in the afternoon and decided to call it a night. There was a Journey concert in town and every room for miles was booked. Imagine my shock coming from an area where tourists rule and hotel rooms are a dime a dozen. I ended up riding for about an hour in the downpour and pulling into a motel I'd normally not patronize. Like a zero stars place. Once I was in the room, I didn't even venture outside to go eat. Domino's came to the rescue.

    Further proof that having President Obama send a hand-written note to CJ wasn't so outrageous. His civility is sorely missed.

    Thanks, tim. I learned a couple more. An unhurried trip through New England is a great adventure. Although I did get caught in a bone-chilling rainstorm in Maine in the middle of August. I thought I'd never feel warm again. Yeah, yeah, I know. Thin, Florida-boy blood.

    Me too! And the lobster rolls in a little, mom and pop shop off the main drag in Freeport is one of the main reasons. Sitting atop Cadillac Mountain doing nothing but enjoying the view is also up there. And I want to visit the lighthouse!

    Y'all can always check the Cast of Characters in the prologue. Lola's there.

    Although important, I wouldn't think high school graduation would be a big deal in that family. It's a requirement to attend college and they're big on higher education.

    Their 2020 big, bike trip will be a trip south to escape the cold weather. You have time to get your motorcycle endorsement if you want to join them on that trip.

    Most of the ride is based on a similar one I did about 5 or 6 years ago, The New England countryside is gorgeous and Acadia National Park is definitely worth a couple of days exploring.

    I wanted them to ride through a non-urban environment. Having grown up in a winery, Owen's a little bit country. CJ's definitely a city kid. I keep trying to show what they do is designed to deal with bot sensibilities. They did Daytona the previous year, but the I-4 corridor in Central Florida is almost a continuous megalopolis.

    I think they're up to 20 states so far. The Eastern Seaboard has been checked on CJ's bucket list.

    For once, no nefarious hidden meaning. The birds are simply an atmospheric embellishment. Riding while a bunch of birds seems to follow you is always an interesting experience. I was pooped on once by who knows what type of bird. Owen's always willing to taste new stuff and learn. He uses Google for wine the way CJ does for geographic locations. We have an appearance by Brad coming up in the next chapter.

    Her name was Lola She was a showgirl With yellow feathers in her hair Oops, never mind. Channeling Barry Manilow there. Whenever possible, Lola travels with CJ. He doesn't like to leave home without it.

    Unlike CJ and Owen, Harley works!!! I also wanted those two to have some alone time. It gave me a chance to showcase their easy relationship a bit more. They may be married but most importantly they're best friends.

    “I hate you, bruh.” Harley did not look happy while hugging Owen. The two of them and CJ had spent the previous few days together, most of the time on their motorcycles riding through the countryside around Laconia. Now it was time to part ways. Owen took a step back but kept a hand on the man’s shoulder. “You know you’re welcome to come with us.” The ride to DC from New Hampshire was long enough Harley was heading south this morning and planned to spend a night with Chipper in New York Ci

    If I was used to having sex all the time and then had to stop to save my sperm to masturbate, I'd complain too.

    I'm glad watching all those shows before writing this chapter paid off. I like the way she handles heavy topics in a light-hearted way.

    GMA IV

    Carlos Hazday commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in GMA IV

    I try to inject humor into the story often. I find people who are serious all the time boring. Gina's a good friend and about to graduate from college. Not sure she can have a baby before she returns to Alaska. Not only Americans! I escaped that fate even though I was the first born. My middle brother's named after my dad, and the youngest one after both grandfathers. CJ and Chipper are both juniors.
