  1. I know the feeling. Try not to party so hard that you feel it tomorrow! 😂💜
  2. That's actually a kind of accurate description.
  3. If you make it a short, under 10k words story, you can! Says the person who said she wasn't joining this year to join the guessing crew instead. I still have to finish the anthology piece, so I'm hoping others are willing to provide entries for Secret Author. Also, @Cia just to clarify to first timers, on this line: 5. Games will be played! Guess the Author is always fun. We will also do "Favorite Use of Theme" this year. Do NOT reveal the truth! You mean for the writers to not reveal themselves, right? I read it so fast that for the smallest moment, I thought you meant don't reveal the truth in the story itself even though the theme is to reveal the truth in the piece you are entering.

    What's Next?

    I meant other than my own. 😂 Although, I have to admit I do forget details of my own story after just a few months. I have to write notes on everything.

    I don't remember if I got any guesses correct, but at least one correct guess is good enough for me.

    Oof. I'm close to finishing my creature feature entry.
  7. *hides dirt-covered shoes* oh? I've a feeling they won't anymore, regardless? Absolutely. Yes, don't be lazy like me. Instead of reworking an old story's plot and events, I just swept a lot of things under the rug so I can get to newer things. Yeah, I still can't believe the high hopes some people had about my writing. 🤣 The day I write chapters that are more than 10 pages long on anything that is not a collab or a oneshot is the day I no longer need a day job.
  8. Fuck yeah, I'd be writing so much fanfiction bout K-pop bands if I hadn't gotten into them only when Big Bang and TVXQ/DBSK were starting to get big. Shit. I lost the line I was reading. Be right back. At the moment, there is a group of people that actively dislike me. - Excuse me? Do you need me to help you bury some bodies? Cause I'm about to hunt me a shovel right now. Didn’t they know I was the best thing that ever happened to GA? - I mean, you are to me. But I'm biased AF. I already said I'd help you bury bodies. I am extremely self-aware and know I’m not a really likable person online or in real life for that matter. - I couldn't disagree more. You're one of my most favorite people. They watched me pull into the space, but they were so oblivious of anyone around them, and didn't even think twice about blocking me inside my car. - The Hispanic in me would have honked the horn so many times by then I'd have gotten the whole apartment complex yelling. 🤣I'd have played NSync's Bye Bye Bye with that car horn. In retaliation, I unplugged his Tesla multiple times a day. Even setting alarms in the middle of the night to go into the parking garage to unplug his car. - Okay, that's even better. Hope you didn't get caught. I swear the cosmos knew not to have us born in the same town around the same time as I'd have been helping you do things like this the whole time. Because I no longer believe I’m a good writer, because I know it will never be anything but a fun hobby - But I know how to publish on kindle! Just you wait til you finish the Glacier Bay series, and we'll revisit this. But to the art of writing, plotting, constructing, structure, I have a long way to go to even consider myself okay. - PFFT! If you have a long way to go, I have twice as long as you. Please don't say these things. 🤣I know it's coming from other feelings and a lack of confidence, but I swear to the cosmos, you're at least twice as good as me. After years of me writing stories and him reading them, my husband started urging me to share them since I spent so much time and effort on them. - Yay! Thank him in my stead. And in my usual fashion, I commented in the thread attempting to make him laugh. - Yeah, those secret author threads were as entertaining as the stories themselves. We had way too much fun.

  10. I'm not sure if anyone's already shared this. But I've been listening to all 40 songs for the last two weeks as if it's all just one big song, and this is why (it's worth watching the entire playlist...different animators, but one cohesive story!):

    Chapter 1

    Dr. Alka. 😂 Well, it all made sense to me. Thanks for all your hard work, prompt team! ❤️
  12. She's a trip.
  13. Yes. This.
  14. Thirdly

    This is the end...

    Same! Bring on the collab!
  15. Right? For example, @kbois's The Last Unicorns - Fiction - Gay Authors should be sorted in Comedy somewhere. It was one of the most comedic stories I read all year.
  16. But that is still an important Glacier Bay setting teaser! 🤣 All other settings now pale in comparison to its gloriousness.
  17. It's alright, I need no more spoilers, promise! 🤣
  18. I mean if she just so happens to stumble across a petite Hispanic girl named Mika...🤣(I'm joking I swear)
  19. This right here is one of my favorite chapters so far...Tyler hunting down Brandon using coordinates...the nighttime setting, the fact that he walked that far to try to clear his head after a domestic argument (not to mention after peeping on those other 2 guys who were so not on the same wavelength and all)...and of course the clandestine tagging. Just wonderful imagery; the whole thing.
  20. If Christine only batted for my team, I'd be right here to comfort her with open arms, mosquito bites and all. 😏
  21. As terrible as Brandon's parents are (and technically that's nothing compared to toxic Hispanic parents that throw things and people) I am mostly just huffy that Brandon's mom happens to be a Michelle. She's giving all Michelles a bad name. 🤣
  22. I just have a couple of friends like female versions of Brandon and join them once in a while. I technically need nothing more than chocolate to boost my energy levels. 😆
  23. Oh, I'm not smarter than anyone. I'm a firm believer that everyone is an expert in something that I'm not because we all have different interests. I do like the idea of celebrating, though. 🥳
