Thank you! I really enjoy the challenge of flash fiction. I'm glad you liked the story.

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you

I love how Avery knew exactly what Dale was thinking. It's a wonderful thing to find your inner Pride and be able to express it. I love Avery's rainbow hair and how he found the courage to outwardly show his inner Pride. Great story!

I enjoyed this. I liked seeing how such major events affected Caleb and his life's path. Thank you for sharing your story!

A wonderful tale of friendship through the years. You did a great job showing the progression of their friendship in such a short piece. I enjoyed this a lot. Very well done! And there's nothing wrong with Kraft mac and cheese

This was great! Very clever and funny. I needed the laugh. Thank you for sharing this story!

Sometimes the best way for someone to understand is to experience it firsthand. This is a good illustration of why Pride should be celebrated and a nice tale of friendship. I enjoyed this story.

Perfect!

Rowan's name is definitely a clue. His lineage gave him an affinity for plants, so what else would he be? Thank so you much for reading and leaving such a lovely comment

Jason doesn't want a hug. Even if they're free.

Whew... that was an emotional read. It's so important for history to be remembered. I'm glad Michael survived. Thank you for posting this

I have a new adjective for one of my coworkers

I like this! Seems like it will make it easier to search blog posts.

Thank you very much for that image... Have a great time on your trip! I hope the weather cooperates

Thank you for reading and commenting. I'm glad you enjoyed the story!

The boy with sapphire blue hair raised his arms and undulated his lean body in time with the dance music blaring from the float moving slowly next to him. His hair, haphazardly arranged in spiky waves, stood out against his dark attire. He wore a black tank top that hugged his torso and black skinny jeans that looked to be a size too big. Studded bracelets adorned both of his wrists, and his ears sported a plethora of earrings. A rainbow flag fluttered in the breeze over his canvas rucksack,

@Renee Stevens I just want to be clear so people's stories don't get disqualified for not following the rules. So the story should be marked to publish 6/21 at 12:00 pm and the first chapter for 6/21 at 1:00 pm?

Rowan yelped as Pieter scooped him off his feet, then turned sideways and stood in front of the doorway to their new home. “May I?” Pieter asked. “May you what? Put me down! What the fuck are you doing?” “May I carry you inside?” Pieter rolled his eyes. Rowan winced as his boyfriend gripped his arm and leg tightly. It felt like he’d have finger-shaped bruises later. “I don’t care, just put me down!” “Is that a ‘yes’?” Rowan struggled to free himself, but Pi

Rowan thought he was nuts for moving into a house sight unseen, even though it had been in Pieter’s family for generations. Oakhaven’s beauty changes his mind, and he soon finds himself on a journey of family secrets, where he learns that gods and monsters aren’t always what they appear to be.

Every meeting needs someone like you

Thank you for all the birthday wishes! This was a big one for me, as I turned the big 5-0 shortly after 11:00 am today. I made a nice breakfast of bacon and eggs with cauli/broccoli hash browns. I spent the morning relaxing. My BFF sent me a nice prezzie so I opened that. I chatted with a bunch of my friends online, then talked to Cole for a while on the phone. I skipped lunch, knowing I'd be having a large dinner. I spent the afternoon at my mom's with my family. It was the first family gathering we've had since lockdown started a year and a half ago, so it was great to see everyone. They all brought me gifts, even though I told them not to We had chips and salsa and cheese and pepperoni for snacks, then for dinner we had pulled pork with homemade bbq sauce, a variety of roasted veggies (cauli, broccoli, brussels, and acorn squash), spinach salad, and for dessert I had a low carb vanilla cake with chocolate buttercream frosting, and everyone else had brownies and ice cream. We sat on the porch and chatted and had a great time. Overall, I would say it was the perfect introduction to the second half of my life 💖

@Myr @Renee Stevens Will the chapter scheduling bug affect our ability to postdate the Pride stories?
