    Autumn Around me today flew a tornado of leaves Each orange, red or gold, the colours of autumn The changing of seasons isn’t sad to me It’s just another year of stories to be told There I am in my skeletal remains each day more of me falls away peeled away by me or just rotten Words fly, like a murmuration of starlings and seem to matter less as does all and everything I feel little, care less, as flesh loosens life means little important

    No you wouldn't unless you work for a bank. Yeah new processes and platforms are a joy. Our Social Media Group is testing new social media/email platform. It will be coming our way...

    Oh mine was just annual refreshers for the Canadian Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada and one other i've already forgotten. We have a bunch of these annually to do and sign/attest to. Lots of rules in Canadian Banking. Lots of rules we have to follow.

    Someone to Miss

    Mikiesboy commented on Wayne Gray's story chapter in Someone to Miss

    i am frustrated with Jeremy. Does he have AIDS? No! Where is he with his treatment? Is he undetectable? If so, why is he so f'g worried or believing he can't be in a relationship? My doctor TOLD me my status. i am undetectable but I tell partners they need to use a condom. My husband chooses not to and takes Prep. If things were different, Michael would wear a condom but he'd still love me, still want to be with me. That said, Clay and Greg are sweet and it will be nice once they are together permanently. Nice chapter, Mr. Gray.

    This work suffers today because writing styles have changed since this was written. Written in first person, it is a lot of telling, rather than usual showing we look for today. But it is well done, taking that into consideration.

    Wayne, your prompts inspired me to write the first of the Delicious stories (there are now eleven), The Promise and 16 or so other short prompt response pieces. They work. I find them very useful and fun to use. I appreciate them and look forward to reading them every week! Thank you!

    When i was promoted to Promising Author Cole said to me, " Not everyone can tell our story. Lots of people are depending on us to express the experience we are all living. Your truth isn’t a singular experience. It’s part of what many of us feel." He tells us one such truth, one such story here. Beautiful, honest, it touched me .. and my soul begged for the happily ever after i wanted, but instead Cole gives us reality. I am glad today, often things can be different for us. Do not miss this well crafted, wonderful piece.

    Well written, and interesting. Coping with death of family or friends isn't easy, neither is writing about it. However, here it is done with a gentle, honest touch and grace.

    Good story. An interesting idea. As it was a teacher reviewing his journals, it could have been laid out that way, it would have been an easier read. But i think teachers would wonder about some of their students, just as i think we all do about certain people we met, or went to school with. It was a bit difficult to read and sad. I think adding the odd positive would have made it a more realistic journal. But it does follow the theme ... Scars.

    Interesting story. I am not a huge fan of shifter stories, but this one was kind of different. Bill is a 'fixer'. Why they have them wasn't made clear in this story, but i find that idea to be a good one. Certainly different. I'm left with questions but certainly this was worth reading.
