  1. And thank you, dear friend, for continuing to keep me company as I explore Eric's story. 💓
  2. Thank you! It is quite short ...
  3. Thank you for your kind words. Eric's story will continue in the New Year. When I started writing about Eric, I had no idea how unusual an older protagonist was. When I came to post the completed story, I thought it would attract very little interest. How wrong I was.

    A Bath Before Bed

    Yes, indeed. The Faure is very popular for good reason. Hope it goes well.
  5. Thanks, Val. New / continuing readers are always welcome ... 😛

    Expectations

    @Dodger Don't worry about length or who it's about. Other people write just as fascinating comments. They teach me a lot and sometimes give me inspiration for continuing Eric's story. If older people embrace what technology has to offer, they discover it makes their life easier. It doesn't replace other people though.
  7. I appreciated your help very much, Gary. Your technical comments pointed me in the right direction. If you get back to Soul Music, I'll welcome your comments as always.
  8. Thanks, dugh.
  9. Thanks, @Timothy M. for a wonderful review. I never expected Eric to capture so many people's hearts. Eric was my first proper character as a writer and I have a lot of affection for him. @ColumbusGuy makes some very cogent points in his comments. That you see my story as being part of that narrative is a compliment, CG. Thanks.

    A Bath Before Bed

    Thanks! I appreciate your support.
  11. Can't think of any ... It's not the end of the world.

    A Bath Before Bed

    Thanks, AC. Yes, Tony and Geoff's relationship has grown steadily from its start at the opening of Soul Music.
  13. Geoff sat at his piano, idly doing five-finger exercises while Tony sorted through a heap of sheet music. A mixture of his own and what Tony had added at various times, his boyfriend was in search of something suitable for the end of a tumultuous week. More than usual, their Sunday afternoon music-making was an escape. Something uncomplicated that only involved the two of them. No ex-boyfriends, or outraged parents. He changed what he was doing to concentrate his efforts on his weaker left hand,

    Old and New

    Thanks, Tim. Eric in particular, occupies a special corner of my heart. I can't forget how he appeared in my head, out of nowhere, fully-formed, waiting for his story to be told.

    Conversations

    Yes, and I think the family dynamics are more complex than that encounter demonstrates. Adam isn't there apart from visits. That leaves plenty of time for other things to develop ...

    A Walk in the Park

    Yes, but I think it's more denial. It's easier to pretend that everything's OK because that's what he wants. Stuart will be back. Thanks, Puppi.
  17. Snuck in between bouts of scribbling the end of my antho entry, that was a fun read. I've never come across the author at all.

    The Tale

    Good question. Sad!y the backstory is somewhat lacking ...
  19. Judy Shepard has issued an inspiring public letter to young activists in the latest issue of Out magazine. Find it here. It's well worth a read.
  20. If you couldn't kill me with the truck, why should that help? I warn you, I'm hungry.

    The Tale

    Thanks, Dolores. I had fun writing it.
  22. Riveting @MrM Very, very good. Primordial monsters are amongst the best.

    The Web

    Excellent. Dark, threatening and gruesome without being . Thanks for this.

    The Tale

    Thanks, Reader! I'm glad you enjoyed it.

    The Tale

    Yes. The sort of office where nobody cares much about anyone else. Or respects them. Was Kevin selected by chance, or because he's a loner?
