This was a most enjoyable story! I like a bit of magic, especially in the Mary Poppins style. Martin is another one of those characters you can't help but love. I like the idea of fixers, and you've certainly left yourself room to revisit these characters. Thank you.

This was a fun story with great characters! You kept us guessing right until the end. Will one of them stray or not? The proposal at breakfast was a perfect ending. Thank you for sharing.

This was a most satisfying story! Even more so because you handled the potentially difficult subject of abuse with understatement. I liked Chester, and I think I understood the part of him that didn't want to give up on Mark. It was interesting as the story ended to realize Jordy and Mark were 180 degree opposites. The idea that Jordy would protect Chester and help him heal emotionally was a very satisfying ending, especially since Chester was going to allow it. Thank you for sharing this story.

Oh, Tim. What a beautiful and poignant story this is. It checked all the boxes: great characters, good dialogue, an interesting plot, and food for thought. Add to that some amazing poetry that complimented and enhanced the plot, and you have yet another terrific short story! Depression and mental health issues can be tricky to write about without sounding preachy or heavy-handed. With a deft touch you managed to tell this story without being either. As usual I enjoyed your writing. You just continue to get better! Bravo! And thank you.

Things are looking up for Woody, and I'm happy for him!

This is a terrific sci-fi short story! Engaging characters and an interesting plot. You wrote a good wrap up for the ending, but it might be fun to revisit Fred's and Simon's sons as teens or young adults. Thanks for sharing this story.

Thanks for this excellent, thought provoking story.

It may be painful, but now Jenn can have her fit and Noah and Jordan can get on with their romance. Jenn will get over her anger, or not. I would think a best friend would get past the initial hurt. Noah can try to explain, if Jenn will let him. Meanwhile he needs to focus on his new boyfriend. Thanks for more drama and more of this good story.

I am always impressed when an author does a short story well. The idea of telling a complete story in a small amount of words is a challenge. You have done an amazing job with this story, Tim! Eli, David, and Ray feel real, as do the in-laws. Their dialogue felt authentic, not contrived. And as much as I might enjoy reading more about these characters, your plot ends at a good spot. I didn't feel like I was left hanging. The one thing that puzzled me was the D/s sub-theme. I didn't get the impression David and Eli lived a D/s lifestyle. Ray calling Eli "boy" indicated to me he did. I appreciated your comment "Ray saw something in Eli he didn't know about himself." It made sense and clarified things for me. Thanks for sharing this beautiful short story! As always you have touched your reader's hearts.

A step forward for Tyson. Hopefully the first of many. As I understand it, mental illness recovery can be filled with steps backward and may not be "cured." With Tyson I am hoping for managed. Thank you.

For me, the jury is still out on whether Trout is going to be a likeable character. I do confess I have really enjoyed some of your other stories. This premise is interesting, and I intend to stick around for more. Thanks.

I like the new character! Jeff is going to add to this story. He will be good for the twins and Drew. I liked his advice to the twins, and I can't wait to see what comes next. Thank you.

I suppose this is the end, which makes me happy-sad. Thank you for these amazing characters and their great story!

A great message simply stated. See the person, not the sex. Thoughtful beautifully written. Thanks, Tim.

A beautiful tribute. Thank you, Tim.

This was a sweet chapter, and I mean that in the very best way! I am happy for both, but especially Rory. He has been patient with his frustrations. I imagine Milan is over the moon! Romance with a guy he didn't think he could hope to have love him back. More good story! Thanks.

What a big step forward for both of them! It makes me happy. I continue to enjoy this story. Thanks.

Go Rory!!! Hooray!

No apology needed. Wishing your sister a speedy recovery! Your story just gets better! I am really enjoying Avi, Lex, and company. Thanks.

Once again Sasha Distan has written a most enjoyable story! Su Yin is chosen to be a sacrifice to the demon Zhihao. Zhihao has other ideas and takes Su Yin to Hell to be his lover. How Su Yin learns love love Zhihao and adapt to living in Hell makes a great story! Su Yin joins the ranks of my favorite GA characters, and the supporting characters are varied and intriguing. If you haven't read any of Sasha's "Best Circle of Hell" stories, you may want to read them first. Although you can enjoy this as a stand alone, you will enjoy and understand the supporting cast better if you have read their stories.

Su Yin was a great character! I liked all the others, but he was a soft-spoken little pepper sprout (an oxymoron?). It's been awhile since I've read any of your "Best Circle of Hell" stories. I had a bit of a struggle keeping all the demons and others straight, but I still really liked this story. Guess I'll have to go for a reread. Thanks for sharing this. It was most enjoyable!

I really loved "Crossing the Moon!" This story may give it a run for the money!

Great characters! I got a little lost in the sci fi versus real science discussion, but the boys were great and the plot was too. A most enjoyable story! Thanks.

I enjoyed this first chapter and look forward to more. Thank you.

This is a great Halloween story! Well written with interesting characters, good dialogue, and an intriguing plot. Thanks.
