    Take two aspirins and check with me in a week. Hopefully, your dread will be gone by then.

    @Daddydavek Thanks, Dave. By now you know I love to describe settings in detail. I enjoyed doing it with a restaurant instead of an exotic location this time.

    So I have people tearing up and you think it's funny. I'm either schizo or getting good at eliciting emotional responses. Brad's a big boy, I'm sure he can take care of himself.

    So where did you tear up? As for Brad, you mentioned your fear the last chapter and now again. Would I set up his demise that way?

    Damn! What did I write that has everyone dreading my plans for Brad? I mean, I've only killed off about half-a-dozen characters. And It's been a while anyway.

    Thanks, bud. Is that what your 21st birthday party was or will be like?

    Thanks, AR. I love writing speeches for CJ!

    Thank you! Everything I described about the place is true. What Owen read is really from their website. I've never been to the basement dining room, but the upstairs is awesome. You feel transported to an earlier time.

    Thanks, Chris. Giving 21 character dialogue lines was scary. Hopefully, I didn't confuse readers too much. A few were left untagged when I felt it didn't matter. Like when I described the dessert by different people telling us what components they liked.
  10. Is there a section on commas before conjunctions? And as for the cartoon Thorn shared, tell Michael I like his purple, fuzzy slippers...
  11. Key West! Sorry about the mystery, people. Those of you following CJ will figure it out in a couple of months.
  12. “FUCK!” CJ’s monumental hangover the morning after was momentarily forgotten when he stubbed his toe on the toilet. On the way to the kitchen, he peeked at the thermostat and lowered the setting. The apartment was too warm; his body felt clammy. He cracked a window and stood in front of it allowing the chilly air to cool him. Before his friends poured him into a cab the previous evening, CJ had vomited in the gutter to the applause of people he immediately added to his must kill list. Owen w

    Thank you! I try to convey a sense of time and space hoping to place the reader in the middle of the action. I'm glad it works for you.

    We can only hope Dayne rediscovers the joy of writing. As for the whirlwind, it slows a bit in the next chapter. But let me tell you, having 21 characters at a dinner party and giving them all dialogue lines was challenging! You may have to read a bit slower than usual so you don't miss anything.

    Chapter 4

    I like Don's attitude towards Miriam. Can I have 15 minutes alone with her?
  16. Y'all might find this interesting. The steps abutt Cesar and Brett's house. D.C. designates Georgetown ‘Exorcist’ steps and adjacent car barn building as historic landmark https://dc.curbed.com/2019/1/29/18202732/dc-historic-landmarks-exorcist-steps-georgetown-preservation
  17. Pretty sure there's an app for that! I use a white-noise one my tablet to help me sleep. With the AC no running much this time of year, it's too quiet otherwise. Tell Mike to give you an extra hug for me. Both of you please stay warm and safe.

    I enjoyed that. However, as is often the case with prompt responses, I'm left wanting a smidgen more.

    Chapter 3

    Uncertain of how the accident will end up affecting them as a couple and Don individually, but I feel Louis becoming stronger. Nice ending with the appearance of the sibling who may or may not be an obstacle.

    Chapter 2

    So much is often left unsaid even between people who love each other. These two are going to overcome that if they plan on surviving the challenges ahead.

    Chapter 1

    Nicely done, mister. You paint a clear picture of the accident without getting lost in the details. As much as Don is the injured once, I suspect Louis' pain will be just as large. I hope I can knock out at least a couple of chapters a day.
  22. Scary and hopeful. I liked it.
  23. @jamessavik You have described the majority of my stories. Throw in the fact the MC of my series has a concealed carry permit, and you can imagine the type of reaction I often receive. Most readers realize this is fiction and my guy's not one-dimensional, but some fans aren't shy to tell me they disagree. I kinda like that and encourage it.
  24. Dueling barristers instead of dueling banjos. So's Owen.
  25. I'm going to work on those crossovers... CJ & Owen fly to London, rent motorcycles, and tour the countryside. They meet Eric and he ends up riding bitch...
