Irises always remind me of Mom! She grew every color she could find.

Hi Drew! From experience I knew you would appreciate the small correction I made to clarify the situation for Spike. Good luck to all with the negotiations. I'll check in every few months to see how they are going. 😄

The Times They Are a-Changin'
raven1 commented on Headstall's story chapter in The Times They Are a-Changin'
I wish you also the endless time and energy, my friend. But skip the monkish room. It would drive you crazy and separate you from the nature you love and inspires you. Besides the beds are too small for more than one body. No fun at all. -
I love the brilliant reds in this orchid.

I love cattleya orchids!

Great new chapters. I am enjoying the development of both the plot and new characters. I already hate the Emperor, and love King Tau and his lover. Nice touch adding the hidden spy panel with the creepy eyes staring at the resting lovers. I wonder if the sleeping being under the sands is Amun-Ra.

First off, it is great to know that Colin and Armand are able to have a special time to themselves and not be overwhelmed by all the kids. Richie having his own house is great. He needs to start being independent and have his own life. It shows that Armand is willing to give Richie what Richie needs. It also shows that as the boys all grow, Armand can let go a bit to give them the room to grow. I had to chuckle over the way the kids at the home were both eating Armands food, and feeding him as well. Looking forward to David being able to eat normally.

GG always knows the right medicine for Armand. In this case it wasn't her telling him, but showing him in his nightmare how others would be affected if he was not strong and continued what he needed to do. Considering the success of the day, I don't know why he succumbed to such a depressing thought of quitting. Is he getting sick?

I'm glad there are no writers of the slasher genre on GA. This word would get them very excited. 🤢

MESSY? You bet! Fortunately the clean up job is yours. ❤️

Secret Author Contest Rewind #3 - April Fool's
raven1 commented on Valkyrie's blog entry in Gay Authors News
Too bad the authors are now listed for the 2017 Secret Authors. It would have been fun to try to figure them out for those of us that didn't try the first time. -
This is the truth in both real life and art.

Hi Albert!

SHH! This is what you get when you try to derail a high speed train! I'm sure you won't hear the last of this.

Two of the many earth mates that you created. All are special. Is it any surprise your readers want to get to know these people better? 😉 -
Hi Dan! Glad you are having a good time with this. I think I said the same thing you just did about shifter stories. I know it took some time for me to read this one. I did read it because I had read enough of Gary's stories to trust him. I do have to admit that after this shifter story, I started to look for another. GA has talented authors and some of the write very interesting and unique shifter stories. Malaise is still my favorite in this genre.

Chapter 48 Connections, Old and New
raven1 commented on Headstall's story chapter in Chapter 48 Connections, Old and New
One of the reasons I love your stories is that the sex, when written, is a very naturally occurring event. It is almost always an act of love and not just overheated lust. It's hot when it needs to be and reassuring when that is required. It is never pornographic. -
Let's talk about standards
raven1 commented on Mrsgnomie's story chapter in Let's talk about standards
Thanks Gary! Your kind words brightened my day. With comments like these you can stalk me anytime. I also enjoy your comments on the many stories we follow together. -
Great news! I've been having MrsGnomie withdrawal symptoms for months!❤️

I don't particularly like the way Dani has acted, but it is very much a trait of someone his age. I had thought that Dani was much more mature than he demonstrated. I'll chock that thought up to Dani's teenage hormones. Personally, I think Dani and Marco need the same thing. Someone to protect them who is outgoing and loyal. For Dani, that is Giaco. For Marco, that is Dani. I don't see them all together like that. I personally hope that Marco can find his own hero other than Dani. Dani is overthinking this, and I feel that Giaco will prove himself to Dani. Giaco is a very forgiving person. He also isn't someone to give up easily.
-
I agree with both Ivor and drpaladin. Marco is devastated, and really lashed out at Dani. Dani does not have the self confidence at his age to resist an assault like this and will have doubts. Like Ivor, I do believe Giaco is definitely in love with Dani. First, because of how lost he was when Dani was not around, but also because he now has no desire to hide his relationship with Dani from their friends. This was a very emotionally trying confrontation, because I want Marco to be happy also.
-
The way you used the dialogue to build up the the very last words of the chapter was great. We don't know what their "first" was, but we know from how you wrote that it was consensual and special. Something that the two will probably remember all their lives. ❤️
-
Having taught this same age group not so long ago, I feel that this was written very well and naturally reflected what kids this age feel. Yes, both boys are excited to explore, but also afraid and cautious when the opportunity to do that faces them in reality. I like the character arc for Laura. She's a nice girl and like so many her age is also exploring her growing emotional temperament towards boys. It is interesting how Dani and Giaco have switched positions with Giaco the one who is waiting for Dani. You have written a very real to life scene of Dani and Giaco testing the boundaries of their relationship. Dani's dream was scary, and hopefully not foreshadowing what is to come.

The team assemble is going to be great! I'm glad Bernie was forceful to make himself heard and became part of the team. Rodney is going to be a great asset and provide a lot of fun to the group. His wights are a force to be reckoned with if things get out of hand. I'm looking forward to how they all deal with the Benefactors and the lions. Charlie is also a key to the whole success of the operation. A wonderful chapter. So very glad you're back @Grumpy Bear!

Chapter 46 Shining a Bright Light into Darkness

Kellar does act as an Alpha if a reluctant one. Hey! That would be an interesting story. The Reluctant Alpha.
