  1. I'm very curious as to the meaning behind the title of the story. I am sorry I didn't read it for the discussion day, but I'm not really doing much reading right now. Great interview. I'm glad I'm not the only who has worn inside out clothing all day and either not noticed or cared.

    on all counts. Thanks for the comments!

    Again, we're seeing things from Galen's perspective, which is a bit skewed at the moment. So the jury's out on Ben at the moment. We'll see what happens with the visit with Eddie. Thanks for reading and commenting

    There's a lot of hurt going around, that's for sure. Josh needs counseling just as much as Galen does. We'll see what happens once Galen gets some answers and advice. Thanks for reading and commenting.

    Great comments We'll see what advice Eddie has for Galen and how Josh deals with the separation. Both Galen and Josh need to work on communicating with each other. Hopefully they'll be given the opportunity to do so. Thanks for reading!

    We'll see what happens once Galen is away from Josh. Perhaps Josh should have been more open and honest with his feelings, but consider he may realize that Galen's not ready so doesn't want to push him. And these two have never been the best at communicating. Also, did Josh mean to kiss him? It was early in the morning before either of them were fully awake... so something to consider. Thanks for reading and taking the time to comment.

    I think you've hit the nail right on the head. This is from Galen's skewed perspective, so is Ben really a creep or just bold? Great comments. Thanks for reading!

    Hahaha I'm the same way. Sometimes I need to be hit over the head with something in order to see it. You've made some good points. Galen and Eddie have something in common, so we'll see how that plays out. And leaving the safety of the farm and Josh is a huge step for him. Thanks for the comments and for reading. I really appreciate it.

    Galen has come a long way, and searching for answers independence is a big step for him. We'll see what roles Eddie and Ben play. And you are quite right--there are no easy routes or answers. Thanks for reading and your support of this story.

    You are absolutely right. Galen needs to find answers without Josh muddying the questions. It will be hard, but hopefully worth it in the end. Thanks for reading and commenting.

    Chapter 27

    Remember that we're seeing things through Galen's eyes, and his trust of strangers is quite broken. So we don't know much about Ben at this point. And I want to hug Galen until things are better, too. Thanks for reading and commenting.
  12. What a wonderful surprise for your friend Thanks for sharing
  13. I like all of these, but number one stands out to me. Interesting form. Nicely done, as always

    Story

    Whew... I really felt the pain and terror of the protagonist. You relayed a harrowing and terrifying experience quite well.
  15. I haven't stolen the shiny in a while, so you have no excuse And I will never declare you the rightful owner since the shiny much prefers the company of Emperor Penguins.
  16. Thanks And Danny is definitely a jerk.

    Age and Unborn

    I like the prosody and flow of these. There's an inherent smoothness to the form that I find soothing, context notwithstanding. I learned a new word--'lief'. "Unborn" is quite clever, leading the mind one direction until the last stanza. "Age" struck a chord with me, as it echoes some thoughts I've been having lately. Nicely done, as usual.
  18. Northie's stories are well worth checking out. She has a unique style that seems a bit unorthodox at times, but works. The Bard's Tale is a perfect example of this. It's a riveting story and you don't need to be a LPW participant to appreciate it. Her writing has grown stronger with each 'experiment', and she features characters that are flawed, but relateable, and not typically seen in most stories on GA. Anyone who reads her stories won't be disappointed.

    Galen “You seem distracted today.” “Huh?” Dr. Snowden’s voice drew my attention away from his bookshelf and back to him. “I asked about your riding. A couple of weeks ago you mentioned you’d started again.” “Oh yeah.” I shrugged. “Fine.” “Was there something in particular you wanted to talk about today?” I furrowed my brow. I was regretting my decision to keep my appointment that day. I’d almost cancelled since I wasn’t in much of a mood to talk. “Somethin

    Thank you A good support system is essential to recovery. Galen is definitely lucky to have such good friends.

    Thanks for reading and commenting You've summed up the story quite well. There's a lot of hurt going around, and we'll see how it all plays out.
  22. I have a lot of respect for good wait staff. It's not an easy job. I hope he meets up with the customer again, too.
  23. This is an excellent story and well worth reading. Parker takes a person who appears utterly unworthy of sympathy or redemption, yet Great review, Spikey.
  24. Parts of this prompt are based off an actual job that I had. I lasted about a week before I quit. I am most definitely not cut out to be a waitress. You are right about it being difficult to stand up for yourself when you are the center of attention. Thanks for commenting!
