Why Can't I see Author Banners in the Author List?
Valkyrie replied to Timothy M.'s topic in Site Help
It's not just Tim. I can't see the author logo either. I can see the banners, but as Tim said, to the left of the text I see a box with the words 'author logo' instead of a picture. I use a laptop with Windows 10 and Chrome. -
Whew... I think you mixed some chili peppers in with those spices. I loved the play on 'mounting anticipation'. Very spicy, indeed.

Oh I've done my share of laughable trailer backing. I got pretty good at it, too.

You're describing my office... The rest of the building is comfortable or freezing, but my office is always way too hot. I'd rather be cold than hot. And now I'm having a hot flash in solidarity with you. Great job with these.

Bittersweet is a good flavor combination. The bitter makes us appreciate the sweetness even more. Yet another flavorful offering. Nice job

Here's the question for tonight: for those of you that jump, what's the highest fence you've ever jumped? Mine is four feet, I believe. As a teenager I competed mainly at three feet, then in college I was jumping higher. More 3'6" to 3' 9" fences.

Door#5 - A Christmas Memory
Valkyrie commented on Aditus's story chapter in Door#5 - A Christmas Memory
Thanks for reading, Lyssa. -
We did make an exception once. She was 5, but mature for her age. She had lessons at the walk and trot for years. She's all grown up now and last I knew still riding, so it's nice to hear that all those years of the basics paid off.
-
When I used to teach riding, the youngest we would take was six. It was nice to see their progression if they stuck with it.
-
Nice and spicy, just like the others. More, please. I love the term "artless gait".
-
Ugh. What a nightmare. Hope it's all sorted out soon.
-
Here's the link to the story of how I started riding, in case anyone hasn't seen it. https://www.gayauthors.org/story/aditus/anadventcalendar/5

I've been a bit lax with the question of the day due to being on vacation, but here's another one. How old were you when you started riding? I was ten. I related the story of how I started riding in the Advent Calendar I did with Aditus and Cole Matthews.

You captured the fear and physical response to anxiety perfectly. I'm sorry you're going through such a rough time. You have a lot of people you can lean on and that can relate. I hope things are on the upswing.

oooo... I like the word list this week
-
You captured the spiciness of flirtation well. I love the lines about 'night thoughts' and 'flammable craving'. Very well done, as usual.

Sometimes I find it helps to write using pen and paper vs. the computer. I also try to pick one story to work on at a time. Too many ideas can become overwhelming and it looks like you have a ton of them. I can relate to depression meds not working. They don't work for me, either. I had one med that worked amazing for me, for I developed an allergy to it. Major to you.
-
I can totally relate, Renee. I have a ton of ideas too, and find it difficult to pick one and concentrate on it. I have attention issues, so on a good day I find it hard to focus on one task. I hope your trip helps you work things out.

Happy Birthday, Puppi! I hope you have an awesome day! Here's a rainbow cake for you!

I'm not sure, actually. Draught, draft, or dray are all terms used for heavy, working horses like these. From my understanding it's from Old English 'dragan' - to pull or haul, and the Danish equivalent is 'drage' meaning 'to draw'.

Spruce Meadows is a world class show jumping facility in Calgary. They hold international competitions, including one of the Rolex Grand Slam competitions and the richest Grand Prix in the world.

Very nice, Parker. And no one would be a fool to select you.
