GA's Newest Promising Author: LitLover
Puppilull commented on Renee Stevens's blog entry in Gay Authors Archive
Congratulations! -
That is actually one of the things I fear most. Not that I'll disappear, but that someone of my friends in here will simply be gone one day and I won't know why. Hmm... I should perhaps do something about this myself.
-
Oh, you should have seen my huffing anger after Book 1. I swore to not read another line. I really don't like the Bobby in the shower thing either. Then I saw the light and realised Meta is different and the layers so complex. Now, in hindsight, I'm so happy I stayed with this story. Colt and his wolves have made me cry several times, but also given me so much.

Prompt 568 You’ve got to tell me everything!
Puppilull commented on Timothy M.'s story chapter in Prompt 568 You’ve got to tell me everything!
Boyfriend or not... You don't read someone's journal. It's simply not done! Bad Eric! And they were having such a lovely time. -
I thought Colt did the filling...?
-
Oh go on! He can take it.
-
I can help with the casting...!

What a sad chapter... Seeing Corey lose Brett and not understanding why. Growing apart or just Brett developing new interests. Then to have his parents act like that. Although, I have hope his dad will come around. His mom seems a bit of a lost cause.

The nose is one thing. It's the jaws that befuddle me...

To be honest, Franco did manage to squeeze out a few books that sold well. But it was our hero who made his books really take flight. A collaboration that he should have been more careful of. A lesson learned I suppose. A little too late...
-
I find myself wondering how he's... ehum... positioned himself in there to get the snout so snouty...?
-
I'm thinking when all this is cleared up, there will probably b a book in our hero's future. One with his very own name on the cover. I was very pleased with myself when I hatched the title. It was kind of last minute, but the whole legal-revenge thing made sense. I hadn't even thought about the waiter thing until your comment. My brain is even cleverer than I gave it credit for... And yes, Franco is in for a rough ride. Yes, shooting bad, law good! Backup is always good to have. For lots of things. Or maybe I'm simply paranoid? LOL A bomb would have been a nasty surprise, but way too messy for our hero. You're right, it would be totally out of character. I tried to make it feel natural to worry, but not go overboard with talk of 'the object'. And I like the ending too. You know, I don't think Franco even stopped to consider this. In his mind, he was the author and he certainly didn't need his ex. I guess he'll find out just how necessary our hero was to his writing. And you didn't fall for my little trick! You have faith in mankind! Thank you! I'm so happy you enjoyed my short story! It was fun to write, giving me a chance to play around with things. I do try not to be formulaic (but only succeed to a point...), so I hope the story did the trick for you. Nice to see not all are expecting violence, even when I try to deceive my readers to think dark thoughts. And what's not to smile about when it comes to court papers...?
-
You fell for my little plot...! Mohahaha! And yes, I was quite pleased about not resorting to violence. Franco will be very sorry he didn't take better care of his lover. And it seems you were right about placing...! Thank you for your kind words! I was nervous about my experiment with length and tenses. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Franco will not enjoy his future... Your words make me blush ever so slightly... But I must admit I am really rather pleased with how it turned out. A flash of an idea that I could actually catch midflight and write down. And I totally agree with you - Franco is an idiot! Yay indeed! It is so satisfying when karma bites back. Even if it doesn't always happen to those who deserve it... Franco will get his though. The lawyer in me was happy to show the law can be an instrument not only to screw people over but more often than not to get justice. In some way at least.
-
I'm not sure what the future holds, but I'm guessing money for college or anything else won't be a problem... And guns are so loud and unsophisticated. The law is much better. Silent and deadly like a dagger. Franco is in for a deserved rough ride. And any writer should know and love their backup! Never forget backup! Obvious is something I try to avoid. Fun to play with the idea of crazed jilted lover, but our hero is more clever than that. I'm so glad you said that about the writing. This was an experiment for me, trying to write a short story and not let it balloon into another 15k+ monster. So I was a bit nervous it wouldn't make sense or be to much of a sketch. Switching tenses was also a first.
-
I had to think of a little twist. Can't really stand violence and this hurt way more...

You clever, clever man!

Good for you! Just do your thing and be brilliant!

Shhh...!

For me, the form was an essential part of this story. It added to the disembodied feeling of Noel about to leave but not knowing where to. The traces he left behind are perhaps the traces we all will leave behind these days. No physical letters or diaries. It could be people didn't connect to the story because of that disconnection. It creates a distance, but in my opinion it worked so well just because of that distance. I like it when writers play around not only with language but also format. However, readers who come in here to relax and read stories that aren't a challenge but entertainment may choose other stories instead. I don't think that should deter you from continuing to push the boundaries of writing. As for religion, I'm a bit torn on the subject. It can be a great support for people going through life, but it can also become a straightjacket. I have nothing against religion, if it can remain open and tolerant. All too often that is not the case.
-
Noel was surrounded by others, but nonetheless he felt completely alone or at least without anyone to rely on if things got bad. I'm not sure his parents needed to blackmail him into staying. It takes a lot to push a person to the point of breaking completely with their previous life, their family. There's almost always hope of acceptance, a longing to be loved for you and not for the image someone wants to portray.
-
This whole story has pointed to this end. Still I couldn't stop myself from wanting a different outcome. Optimism is difficult to curb.

MetaPrompts 568: Team (MW7)
Puppilull commented on JohnAR's story chapter in MetaPrompts 568: Team (MW7)
That feeling of coming home, finally belonging... Such a sweet experience! Bradley standing up to Prime, simply by staying true to himself. A worthy wolf. And I giggled at the 'sight' of Colt all cranky in the morning. Who could resist that? -
I'm kind of torn about where I think Frankie shouldend up. On the one hand, his life in his booth is fulfilling to him. He has a purpose and he does his job well. On the other hand, getting out of there wasn't going to happen unless he was prompted (ehum) so Keyno showing up might be the best thing for him. He could go back, but I'm thinking he's ready to take some steps to widen his world. There are things to experience that I'm sure Frankie can handle. At least in small doses. If he has his safe haven, he could dare to explore some more of what the world has to offer.
-
He he... The boys get a little freaky! Good for them! Although, I've personally never quite understood the allure of watersports. But to each his own, right? And I can confirm straight couples do think those thoughts. At least one couple, namely the one I'm part of. LOL
