    Wow... Ok... so it was Ethan So now they are going to go back and retrieve Caleb? I'm looking forward to seeing where you take this.
  2. Valkyrie
    Well there's an interesting twist...O.O I think Caleb was influenced by whatever Liz called forth, and I don't think it was Ethan. I'm glad I let a few chapters accumulate before I read this... lol

    I want to give Liz a bottle of mouthwash. I bet Caleb had an inkling of what he'd be walking in on, even if he didn't want to admit it to himself.

    1-8 - Compromise

    Valkyrie commented on Cynus's story chapter in 1-8 - Compromise

    Ugh... Jake makes my skin crawl. Liz is definitely committed to the spell... onward to the next chapter.

    I really wanted to tackle the challenge prompt from last week, but time got away from me. Hopefully I can find time this week. I wish I had more time to write Prompts, but right now my two anthology ideas are taking precedence.

    Thank you for your diligence. It makes me sad and angry that people stoop to profiting off the hard work of others. Plagiarism is my biggest fear about posting my stories online. There's some very good advice in this post.

    Waking up to Parker poetry always makes my day. Dugh picked the perfect word to describe these two offerings. Juxtaposition... I see them intertwined and twisting like DNA -- one curves and turns one way while the other does the exact opposite. I like these a lot and can relate to them very much as well. Nicely done, as always.

    Great choice of excerpt, Tim. I encountered a situation once many years ago on my way home from work. A woman was trying to use a pay phone (that tells you how long ago it was) and a man dragged her away from it. She kept fighting him, trying to get away, but he kept grabbing her and dragging her all over the place. It was clear he was going to beat her. I wasn't sure what to do...but I was going to do something. Get my car in between them... let her in my car... just get her away from him somehow. Thankfully about three cars all pulled into the parking lot at the same time and a big guy got out and confronted the guy. So there are good Samaritans out there.

    Collection

    Valkyrie commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in Collection

    My dear Chef... there is always more room in the spice rack This is quite the delectable offering. I especially like 'salt-fevered'.

    In honor of "Talk like a Pirate" day, here is one of the greatest race calls of all time.
  12. Valkyrie
    You are most certainly worthy. Thank you for sharing your story with us.

    Cool! A challenge prompt! I'll have to tackle that one this week.

    Satiation

    Valkyrie commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in Satiation

    This offering is seasoned perfectly, Chef. No disagreeable taste here I especially liked "all thought dispersed like mist before the sun" .

    I'm a relative newbie to the site, having been here only four years. I was reading on another site since about 2001, I think... I'd have to look at my join date, but struggled to find quality writing. It wasn't until 2013 that I found GA through reading Rob Colton's stories. I found the community here to be so supportive and welcoming that it inspired me to join and eventually even start writing again. I've made so many great friends here over the years. I am so grateful to Myr and the GA staff for all they do to keep the site running, relevant, and a fun place to be. Words really can't express how much this site means to me. So thank you. From the bottom of my heart.
  16. Valkyrie
    Happy Anniversary to GA! Here's to fifteen more, and fifteen after that, and fifteen after that... Cake for all!

    Chapter 4

    Valkyrie commented on lmoline's story chapter in Chapter 4

    It sounds like you are going through a lot lately. It can be difficult keeping your head above water, but you seem like a very strong person. The emotion in this poem came through very clearly.

    Twilight

    Valkyrie commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in Twilight

    No acrid chemical scent here. Impeccably written, as always.

    It's nice to see our newest Purple in the story updates Congrats again, Parker!

    1-7 - The Signs

    Valkyrie commented on Cynus's story chapter in 1-7 - The Signs

    This was a great chapter. I like how you portrayed Mrs. Pallet. She's a grieving mother who just wanted the best for her child. I appreciate how she's a regular person... a Christian without being fundamentalist. And how she would have accepted Ethan without judgment, even if she didn't completely understand his feelings. You also showed how there were deeper issues that led to Ethan's suicide. The use of the journal was a good vehicle for that. I found it interesting that Caleb didn't feel Ethan's presence in his room, despite the light and being surrounded by his things. I love Liz's explanation. That he feels him in his own room because that's where Ethan wanted to be. Great job!

    1-5 - A Duty of Love

    Valkyrie commented on Cynus's story chapter in 1-5 - A Duty of Love

    I can totally relate to how Caleb is feeling. When your world shatters, it's hard to know how to go on. It's a good thing he has Liz to smack him out of it. She's 100% right. While communication would have helped, Ethan chose to go a different route. I like Liz a lot. She's a strong character who will help Caleb get through this. This is not something you ever get over, but Caleb will learn how to live with it. Now I'm thinking maybe I should have waited until you were done posting to start reading... lol

    1-4 - The Truth

    Valkyrie commented on Cynus's story chapter in 1-4 - The Truth

    So sad. I think you captured the shock and grief perfectly.
  23. Valkyrie
    Damn, Cynus... What a heartbreaking chapter. If only Ethan and Caleb had communicated sooner. But then we would have a much different story. I'm glad I let a few chapters accumulate The chapter comment notifications is a bug that they've been working on since the site upgrade. For now, you can go to "Activity", "My Activity Streams", then "Newest Comments on my stories/chapters". That will show you if you have any new comments.
