Chapter 11 A Gentle Touch
raven1 commented on Headstall's story chapter in Chapter 11 A Gentle Touch
Take your time Gary. We can wait. -
Oh, nice! Do you take reservations or can I just drop anytime? 😁

That reminds me of a big task I must do. I need to read all the Castaway Hotel books. I can't tackle the books I haven't read until I reread those I read very long ago. At least I know I will have some great reading ahead of me. Thanks for the reminder Bill.

I'm still laughing at the dad-joke! Good one Aaron. For those who haven't read them yet, both @kbois and @astone2292 have written some great short stories for this years anthology collection. Look for them here. https://gayauthors.org/stories/browse/category/198-2023-leap-of-faith/

Sad news. I wish I were there to hug you, and hope you soon get the hugs you need from those close to you.

Hey Albert! Hope the birthday and dinner were great! The menu was very impressive and made my mouth water.

Hi Page! I loved this. Best laugh of the day! I used to watch this show constantly. That reminds me, here is another good laugh I got from astone2292 this week. It's a joke he heard and changed into a very short, short story. 600 words short. https://gayauthors.org/story/astone2292/sticks-and-stories/5

I do understand your fears, but I will have my fingers crossed that Spike's genetics will be dominate (Like Spike).

It's a good thing I didn't read this before I went to sleep last night. How are you doing big guy?

Thanks for this blog entry Myr. I tried it and made a few discoveries myself. "In love" gave me the boot, so I changed to "boyfriends" and got some excellent examples, except for one picture of a heterosexual couple. The pictures were very realistic both in the people and the backgrounds. I had a good time playing with this and may use it for some of my poetry chapters. Thanks!

I agree with @Kitt. All inspiration is from external sources throughout our lives. They come from relationships, experiences, observation and reading. It is not the inspiration that counts, but what you create from that inspiration. Prompts can be varied from the ones you described, a theme like the anthologies or a picture as IOMFATS uses on his site. The creations from these prompts show a prodigious variety and diversity that is from the core of the writer, not the prompt.

I like a slow build-up that begins with a basic background and a few possible ways to go from there. Nicely done.

Greg has an interesting meeting with Billy. First the confrontation, then the mutual arousal of Greg, Scott and Billy. All of that lead to Greg's question about titles, followed by a lesson in eye colors and vampire nobility. I wonder what Greg feels like now he knows that he is one of the highest-ranking vampires, and how Billy will grow as Greg's Lord Steward. I wonder if being in the presence of his Baron prompted Billy's transition. I like how you keep giving us small information packets wrapped neatly in the dialogue, Justin.

Having James write a book immortalizing Marcel and his recipes is a brilliant idea. The bar will miss Jimmy, but his son will bring new ideas and fun.

Fun chapter as everything gets taken carefully between Matty, Rusty and their friends. Connor is the next problem to conquer. Matty and Rusty have gone through much worse and together they will flush Connor down the toilet.

It's a joy to see these two finally bonded and happy. The thing I liked most was they both acquired the other's abilities. What did surprise me was that Caleb's wolf became white like Asa's wolf. Great chapter!

A very interesting chapter. Shamus still rules, but he listens to his family and is willing to change. Including others in the pack will make the pack stronger as well as provide benefits for all shifters.

Sorry! No excuse for this one.

You wouldn't dare...I take that back, sorry, that definitely wasn't a dare.

Not acceptible! Giles has Mikey who is a female. Besides, in real life, Scott and Paul know each other. Paul introduced Scott to the Brazilian martial arts form he now practices. He's perfect for battling Huntington! Also, Scott is single and has no children. He's perfectly unattached and fair game for fantasizing. *swooning at the thought*

On my computer! I'll get my personal assistant on it! .

It sounds like my dad in both instances. Time out! Yeah! Hear that Krew?? Party time in the Korner! .

Another addition to the Halloween season with a story that continues from last year's story, Working the Night Shift, Part 1. Molly is a sweet, but troubled child and Royce wants to help her.

Chapter 1: Working the Night Shift 2
raven1 commented on Bill W's story chapter in Chapter 1: Working the Night Shift 2
As promised you delivered another Halloween story. Sarah was viscous and evil, but not as scary as the dark figure in the first story. The focus was on poor Molly who is lost and confused. It was a great relief that the medium hired by Royce was able to help Molly cross over. It was too bad that the medium couldn't deliver on her threat to send Sarah to a fate Sarah had earned. At least the nursing home will be quiet now. Thanks for another well-written tale for the season!- 12 comments
