Valetudinarian - Word of the Day - Wed Nov 18, 2020
wildone commented on Myr's blog entry in Writing World
I got voted Valetudinarian in High School. I thought I was Valedictorian but was too sick to attend grad -
I would concur with @dughlas, the fact that most likely Ralph was feeling the same as Stanley, that he would catfish him to see if he is worth it, deplorable . Why didn't he make an effort to fix things before he started the whole game. Then, to show up and rub it in his face and tell him to come home, just is wrong. I know we had only Stanley's POV, but he did say that he was in a pretty shitty relationship. But... I guess he could have made the first move to fix things too

I kind of watched the season in one sitting

Okay I need a show of hands from the 10's of 1000's of you that read the weekly update religiously every Sunday Yesterday I sat down to watch the heavily advertised Alex Rider Point Blanc.

Alley-oop - Word of the Day - Fri Nov 13, 2020

Yes, I remember the song long before basketball ever used it... I think **Not going to play the video, not going to play the video, not going to play the video** -
I now have a horrible scar, both on my mind and on my soul Yesterday, with the lockdown still on, I decided to take a little drive. Well more like 7 hours. I decided to head from my home in Calgary, through the Rocky Mountains to a town called Radium Hot Springs. The weather was a bit cloudy and the two mountain passes you have to cross over you were up in the clouds and snowing a bit. Oh, BTW the Rockies have been covered with snow for probably the past month now. I should have taken pictures. So it is a narrow two lane road when going through the second pass near Olive Lake when I came around a corner to find a female mountain goat just stopped in my lane licking the asphalt for the salt from the sanding and salt they put on the roads. To my right there were about 10 others all either in the ditch or up on the rocky wall on my side of the road They were doing construction down the road and the northbound lane had just been let though and it was a steady stream of traffic coming through on that lane so I can't pass said goat. She wasn't impeding that lane. The guy behind me was getting impatient and started laying on the horn. The one thing I have learned of the multiple goats on the roads over the years, if you blow your horn, they will look at you, give you a fuck off look and then some will even lay down on the road. Cheeky bastards. Luckily my nanny didn't lay down. But, in fact a young billy, wandered onto the road and circled the road-licking-nanny and started sniffing her butt. Before my eyes, Mr. Billy got an erection within seconds and tried to mount the nanny All about 4-5 feet in front of my bumper Isn't there something illegal about watching animal porn, if not, there should be For my luck, she was not having anything that he was offering in front of my very own eyes. She took off running and up the rocky wall, with him and the rest of the heard following behind. How does one wipe that from your mind I would really like to know. Now I'm willing to guess it isn't CJ, as the Canada/US border is still closed to non essential travel. Also, after the incident of 2004, the Canada Border Agency has a high risk alert out to not let him in the country. Lastly, said billy had sexual interests in a nanny. Since we all know CJ is our resident gay goat, he wouldn't be having any of that

Good Friday to you all So, any plans over the weekend? Mine will be more or less that same as what I've done since March . Well, I might have one thing I'm doing that I haven't done in years . Stay tuned! So for Staff Prompt Friday, it is an all Cia week I'm on holidays Prompt #5 - First Line brought to you by @Cia He'd never forgotten those teenage years. Prompt #6 - Creative What If brought to you by @Cia There's an old tree I fell asleep under. I dreamed about the family who picnicked under it 50 years ago, and the family who will picnic under it in 50 years time. If you take part in this weeks festivities, make sure you drop a link in here.

The thing I hate about posting the blog, is I can't 'like' it. So for @ancientrichard and the Review Team I give it an overwhelming ❤️ I'll kick off the comments too So if you are a Tolkien or a Rowling fan, I think both are excellent examples of how a made up fantasy world can become so real. You understand the skill and craft to make a story no matter what the subject and storyline is, a place you can imagine is somewhere out there. Could this have been earth in another age, could this be actually what is going on, just we don't know about it? Well I have always said that the Rothenian Tales is another example of the skill of a remarkable author who can capture you imagination and take you to be immersed into the story among all the characters. Like ancientrichard, I want to jump on a plane and go to Rothenia. Covid or not So if you have read the story, who is your favourite character? I debate between Justy and Henry. Both are so opposite, but I don't know who I like better If you find you are at home with nothing to read at this moment, check it out. I'm sure you won't be disappointed

Is it Monday already What happened to Sunday Well without much more delay, here is a great review on one of my all time favourites here at GA! Thanks for @ancientrichard for bringing this most excellent review! Rothenian Tales Mike Arram Reviewer: ancientrichard Status: Complete Word Count: 787,516 Michael Arram's Rothenian Tales focus on events in a mythical central European state which the author tells us was inspired by Anthony Hope's Ruritania, though a good deal of the action takes place in other parts of the world, especially England where the series begins. It is wise to read the stories in the order in which they were written as characters introduced in one story usually appear in many of the later stories, which contain many references to earlier events. Mike's story The Eskaton is actually the tenth story in the series, though it is not labelled as such. His story The Golden Portifor is also set in Rothenia, several centuries before the events in the other stories, but there is no need to read it first, it could be read at any stage and is well worth reading. The saga begins around the end of the twentieth century, when the collapse of the Soviet Union and the consequent end of the Communist dictatorship in Rothenia was still a fresh memory. In the first story, The Heart of Oskar Prinz, we are introduced to Rothenia in the company of a young English Schoolmaster, Will Vincent, whose life is transformed by an encounter with a young Rothenian aristocrat seeking restoration of the family estates. Later stories involve the revival of the Rothenian monarchy. Much of the action is seen from the point of view of English school friends of the young king. There is a strong supernatural theme in these stories. Just a hint in the early stories, the otherworldly component had become the dominant theme by the end. The supernatural can be tricky, but Arram handles it very well. While the righteous mostly triumph in the end, they don't have an easy ride. Characters are not black and white but realistic shades of grey. The 'good' characters have their lapses. In Mike's world not even angels are entirely angelic, and, with the possible exception of a distinctly disagreeable mother in law, not even the most abominable are entirely beyond redemption though redemption is far from painless. Not many authors manage such a balance. Mike says that he was more in love with the country than with any particular character, and I sympathise. I wish there really were a Rothenia, but I do have a favourite character. Henry Attwood, who appears as a schoolboy in the third story and is at the centre of much of the action in the later stories. Kind but not sentimental, brave but not foolhardy conscious of his own weaknesses with a well developed sense of humour, he is the embodiment of balance and calm self critical reflection, the calm centre of the exciting turbulent world Mike has conjured up for us. All the stories are exciting and extremely well written, the personalities of the principal characters are well developed and we see them grow as they progress through the stories of the series; these stories are about people one can believe in despite the extraordinary situations in which they find themselves. The plots have multiple strands which gradually come together. As the main adventure progresses the individuals develop from naïve schoolboys into formidable men. Although the stories are linked by common themes and common characters, Mike has something new to surprise us in every story. Some of the Rothenian words are puzzling. I'd love to know how to pronounce 'Vwyszh'.

What's up world? I'm beginning to think I'm living in hell. What is the famous saying, when hell freezes over? Well that is happening right now in my little corner of the globe. Snow, winds of 80 km/hr or 50 mph, and just downright miserable since about 4 hours ago. I think it is time to throw the flannel sheets on the bed 🥶. So I do want to do a special shout out to @Renee Stevens and @Valkyrie, who have agreed to postpone the deadline for the fall anthologies to the end of the month. Many have and had many different issues directing their attention elsewhere so it is totally understandable. If you think you can spare a few words to an anthology, read up on Renee's Blog entry and or click in the below link about the Anthologies summary below. We had a bit busier week this week, nice to keep things going here at GA. Monday, Cia gave us a new a new CSR Feature for this month. And on Wednesday, we had a birthday. Three years of Ask An Author 2.0 since Carlos took over this popular feature. I will point out his last comment though, 'I have no further questions inventory, so you need to send me some.' So to continue on with AAA 2.0, ask a question or two and get them in to Carlos, sooner the better! Friday, we went back to some Staff Prompts for you all to ponder: Saturday, we had a special Bulletin from Renee, as mentioned above. Well that was 4 blogs this week! Wait, there is more? Why yes, add on another 7 blog entries from our fearless leader, Myr. Check out Saturday's, if you can say that word 10 times quickly, I will give you a prize (a ) . Well we are nearing the end of the year on goals, I still want to give everyone a update on how we do each week, as suggested by a member. Another darn good week IMHO.

So that was a great Ask An Author from @Carlos Hazday! So, for this weeks Staff Prompts, why not reach out to someone, anyone, and ask them if you can do one of the prompts as a team? Could be interesting . May be even the start of something special 💓 Prompt #3 - Creative brought to you by @Cia Creative Dialogue: "What's in that bag and why are you hiding it there?" My already racing heart tried to leap out of my throat. I tried to say something, anything, but gibberish fell past my lips. "I asked you a question." He punctuated the words with a poke to my chest. Prompt #4 - Creative brought to you by @wildone Creative Scene: It is fast approaching the holidays, and you are a solider stationed overseas. You haven't had any contact with family or friends for about a month due to logistical obstacles. What will you do to help you though the coming weeks? Now if you want to partake on either of these, make sure to visit the topics in the Writer's Circle to post a link to your work.

I've decided that we are skipping over November That means everyone has 25 days to get my Christmas present

Well happy Candy Hangover Day!!! If you partook in Halloween last night that is. I guess all day yesterday I wore a mask a lot of day, but not a scary one Talking with some friends, they said they bought the same amount of Halloween Candy this year, knowing full well that they would probably have less than 10 percent of the usual trick or treaters. The reason? They felt they could eat all the candy they wanted and not feel guilty and not worry about running out before the end of the night So what about you, any thing special happen last night in your neck of the woods? For a public service announcement, if you log into GA first thing in the AM and you live in most places in North America or Europe or the spotty areas in the Southern Hemisphere, did you set your clocks back an hour? The falling back of time was always been a favourite holiday of mine when I worked retail. Watching people walk right into the locked glass front doors when they thought it was 8 AM, instead of it actually only being 7 . For that reason alone, I consider it a holiday. Does that make me bad? We had a relatively quiet week here to finish out the month of November here at the GA News Blog. Monday, Cia was here with the ever popular CSR Discussion Day. Then a hop, skip, jump and a sashay into Friday, where the latest and hottest thing trending on the Internet launched. We have had 1000's of new members sign up just to participate Then everyday of this week, Old Faithfull (Myr, not the geyser in Yellowstone National Park) provided us with a Word of the Day. And to wrap up my ad lib part of the blog, we will review with our classmates our marks this past week. Pretty darn tooting good I must say.

Well, it is Halloween and I think we need to say the last rites for Guest Prompts 😢 But as one ideas dies, another springs forth, it is the circle of life Today, is the first day of the Staff Prompts!!!! If you are a staff member and have any prompt ideas, sent them to @Renee Stevens and @wildone Actually, if you want to suggest a guest prompt, you can submit too.

Boo!!! So did I skare you ? It is less than a week now to Halloween. Does it seem due to Covid there just isn't the real excitement that most years have 😢 In my city/province trick or treating isn't banned or restricted, but some strong recommendations to keep both yourself and the kiddies safe. I wish I lived in a two story house, I so would have a plastic pipe or tube running from a second floor window and shooting the candy down to the kids that do come out. Heck, I would probably do that every year now that the suggestion is out there What about your town/city? I know that some bad hit areas are under full lockdown again so I imagine there will not be any trick or treating . If that is the case where you are, what are you doing this year? Jumping right into the wrap up, on Monday we had the GA necromancer bring us a new October Classic Author Feature. Then the site sorcereress was back on Wednesday to bring us the October Classic Author Excerpt. Friday, the site poltergeist was back with a couple of new Guest Prompts. Now a reminder, I really really really really need some more suggestion Working at the site 7 days a week, the ghoulish goblin was by everyday to give us a new Word Of The Day.

What is that??? Why is there Guest Prompts again?? Well thanks to an upstanding gentleman (@Tom ) and a schmuck (@wildone) So lets see what is up for grabs this week! Still looking for some more Prompt #14 - Creative Brought to you by @Tom 6 men, one habitation unit, ten matter converters (only one assembled). Setting: First days of the first colony on the moon Suggested Complication: Two female androids programed strictly for child care, and 10,000 cryogenics pods with 5 fetuses in each. Prompt #15 - Creative Brought to you by @wildone Game 7 of the World Series. It is the bottom of 9th. Bases are loaded. You are down by 1, needing 1 in to tie, 2 to win. Your team has two outs already. You're sitting at full count; 3 balls, 2 strikes. Your team is the visitors and there is 45,000 screaming, jeering, rabid fans yelling at you, never mind the other team's dugout. The pitcher looks around the bases, all 3 runners have a healthy lead off their bases. Not enough though to risk getting a quick out. Also, an error would let 1 possibly 2 of the runners into home. Not worth it. After confirming the call from the back catcher, he winds up and releases the ball and it is coming at you over 100 mph. You start your swing and ...

This is like catching up with an old friend. It has been years since I originally read this, but I’ve forgotten the lil bits and pieces. Looking forward to the next chapter. Thinking of ya, Jack

classic author excerpt October Classic Excerpt: Jack Scribe's Life's a Grind
wildone commented on Cia's blog entry in Gay Authors News
Wow, about 3 weeks ago I was thinking to myself, 'Self, what was that story where the kid was having a rough time and needed to get a job. Then he got a job as a ....' Well thanks for the reminder Cia I loved this story and it was up there with one of my favourite Jack Scribe stories On a sad note, GA and other fiction sites all lost a great man a few years back. Not only was Jack an accomplished outside of his writing. Although he might not be with us anymore, you can still leave your comments Carlos, as everyone will really enjoy them. If you get an reply, even better -
G'day Mate, put another shrimp on the barbie? I'm your man (or mate), Mark No? 😢

Goodness gracious, where the H E double hockey sticks did the week go It just seemed like a couple of days ago I was doing up last weeks wrap up! The fact that we are losing weeks quicker than the Covid pounds a lot of are carrying around , means we are getting closer and closer to Christmas Looks like I've secured a present from @clochette So why am in saying this soooo soon? Well Friday we got a good snow fall here and today's high was -5C/23F 🥶. Yes, even in the Great White North, this is early to get into a cold snap.

Or for you Fahrenheit freaks out there So there is 7 days coming up, who is the 7 volunteers coming over to warm me up Tune in tomorrow at 8, 6 and 11 for your next weather forecast Well, short week here at the GA News Blog, so let's get at er!

Just send it into @Timothy M. or @Renee Stevens.This one was done up by @Parker Owens Then we will hop, skip and jump over to Friday to what should have been our last Guest Prompts, where we could have changed it to @aditus's prompts But alas, I did receive 1 prompt today. So get some into me and we will keep this train going into next week. But here is this weeks. But do not fret this was not everything this week! We learned that Myr's shibboleth is 'Word of the Day' Check out all the words in the past week. And the last thing we bring you each and every week is a check in on our goats goals.

So, I was really, really hoping that some new prompts would have rolled in. But alas, not to be . @aditus has been a real trooper providing us with some great prompt ideas. So to close out the guest prompts, unless some arrive before next Friday, here is the final Guest Prompts. All from aditus Prompt #11 - Creative Brought to you by @aditus Write an instruction manual with a twist. (At least 500 words.) For example: How to put on a sweater with the left sleeve inside out. How to herd cats, or make scrambled eggs without eggs. (Don't use the examples ) Prompt #12 - Creative Brought to you by @aditus (maybe this one will motivate @Myr) A few people met for a round of Dungeon and Dragons. Snacks and beverages are at the ready. Each player has several sets of dice in front of them. The GM (game master) clears their throat. "You are in the Thornflower Pines forest." Suddenly a noise sounded, as if many dice were rolled, and everyone impersonates their D&D character sitting around a fire on a glade. From the off the GM's voice can still be heard."You hear thrashing and stomping as if a large beast makes its way through the underbrush." Prompt #13 - Technical Brought to you by @aditus Write a short story, song, poem or vignette that ends with: If I were...(insert an adjective.) Now lets see who comes up with some prompts after a long absence. All the topics have been already set up in the Writer's Circle to post your entries So git at em!!!

Well Happy Thanksgiving to my Canadian friends Although I'm sure many people are wondering what Thanksgiving, Halloween and Christmas will look like this year, I'm sure we will all return to what is most important to us and celebrate that! You tell me what that is to you. So I do really want to take a moment out on this weeks wrap up to give a shout out to Carlos and all he does for the Ask An Author 2.0. He has a new one every month for Renee or me to share with everyone here. The thing is he does need some new questions. They can be serious, they can be deep, they can be fun Heck, Carlos, here is my question: As an author what do you prefer wearing when writing, boxers or briefs Yes, you would need to take in account our female authors too, so add in briefs, square cut briefs, panties, granny panties, thongs, G-string, etc. The point is, ask it and Carlos I imagine can work it in. I also would be remiss in not calling everyone to helping out occasionally the GA Review Team. As Timothy M says, it is quiet easy and quick to do. If you like a story you just have read, be it a new author, an old author, an in between author, or poet, fire off a review and send to Timothy M or Renee. Here is a look at past reviews the team has done that you can use as an example. Pick them out as the Featured Story: Well what about this week, what happened at the GA Blog? Cia was in on Monday to try to spookify us with a CSR Feature for the month. Make sure to read up and check back in for the discussion day. Then on Wednesday, Carlos was back with another grrrrrrreat addition of AAA 2.0. Myr kept up his daily update of aborning a Word of the Day. Lastly, to finalize off my input, here is the goals we achieved last week. Prompts Suggest a prompt(s) - Recommend a few prompts to be feature on Prompt Friday!
