Thanks Jay, Frustration is the name of the game with Dustin. He's trying very hard and not seeing the results he wants. How will he react?

Thanks for these comments! I'm glad you've enjoyed the story so far. No saints here among my characters! Just lots of teenage angst and hormones and issues! Maybe someday they'll settle down, but what would be the fun in that!

Thanks ColumbusGuy! I'm glad you enjoyed the story. I think all of the characters where you love them and then you want to slap them and tell them to wake up. It makes a fun story! Thanks!

When I returned to school on Tuesday, everyone already seemed to know what had happened to me. I wondered how people had found out what was going on when I hadn’t even had the chance to explain anything. I guess when your life falls apart at the neighborhood pool party it doesn’t take long for the whole town to find out about it. Teachers asked me how my dad and mom were doing. Other kids asked me about my arm being in a sling and a cast. The attention was a little bit embarrassing. I’d do

Take Time with a Wounded Hand
jkwsquirrel commented on jkwsquirrel's story chapter in Take Time with a Wounded Hand
So you're saying don't be mad, be angry! lol I've heard it said that not forgiving someone is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die. Not forgiving someone doesn't hurt them at all, it just hurts yourself. Well, we'll see what happens. Billy's figuring out what it means to be a grown up and his "I'm just a kid" attitude is losing its power. Now as for Billy not getting caught in the middle of Brett and Dustin's feud... Well, you always hurt the one you love. -

You're kind of right about the next chapter. We'll see Dustin's reaction to what's taken place and it won't be good! -

Jen is a smart lady. She's written books on kids like Billy. Of course, she's still clueless about her own son. Dustin's a good kid at heart, but he's in a bad situation. I'm with you on Billy. It's hard to see our parents go from invincible to vulnerable. -

You can take the psychiatrist out of the office... lol I'll tell you what though, I really hoped that's how their conversation would come across. I'm glad it worked! -

Yes, our little Billy is growing up! I'm hoping the journey continues to be fun. Brett will play a big role in what transpires, but that's yet to come! -

Thanks! I'm glad you can relate to Billy and his struggles! -
I walked down the darkened corridor of the hospital. The hallway seemed to stretch on for miles and miles. It was dark and gloomy. Everything seemed to be moving in slow motion. I slipped into the restroom and I quietly washed my face and looked at myself in the mirror. My reflection smiled back at me. My bleary green eyes were tired and bloodshot. “Here you are,” Dustin said as he opened the door. He closed it behind him. “What’s going on?” I asked. “I don’t know. You

The Boy in the Recovery Unit
jkwsquirrel commented on jkwsquirrel's story chapter in The Boy in the Recovery Unit
Thanks for these thoughtful comments! Lots of thought provoking questions. I can't really give too much away, but I can say that many of your questions will be addressed. I can say that Brett is no angel, and we haven't yet seen the lengths he will go to in order to keep hold of Billy's heart. -
The Boy in the Recovery Unit

Thanks as always! I think just about all of your concerns will be addressed in the coming chapters. Billy will have to continue to play the balancing act between Brett and Dustin, but I think in a few chapters we'll understand better just why they hate each other so much. -
The Boy in the Recovery Unit
jkwsquirrel commented on jkwsquirrel's story chapter in The Boy in the Recovery Unit
D'oh! Yes, it should have a "me" in there. Alas! At any rate, Billy's a fifteen year old boy. He'll have the usual problem solved by the next morning! -

Thanks Wesley! We'll see how things go with Brett and Dustin. For now, Billy just needs a little peace after a wild ride in the last book. I hope you'll enjoy how it goes! -
“Time to wake up, boy.” “Huh? Where am I?” I asked myself. I was in a bed, but it wasn’t mine. Lights shining down from above me kept passing by. I realized I was drifting down a hallway. I tried to orient myself to my surroundings. Everything was happening in slow motion. There was a constant steady beeping noise and people kept looking at me and walking away before I could ask them anything. I tried to sit up, but I couldn’t. My body just wasn’t doing anything I wanted it to

Through the Glass Darkly
jkwsquirrel commented on jkwsquirrel's story chapter in Through the Glass Darkly
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it! I really appreciate your comments! -
"I like Billy, but he's an asshole." Yep, you've pretty much hit the nail on the head right there! Behind Billy's front of bluster and rage is a very scared little boy who is afraid that his whole world will collapse if people find out about his deep dark secret. Some of that fear is justified, but a lot of it is in his head. It'll be fun to watch him face his fears and grow.

Brett Gets a New Boyfriend
jkwsquirrel commented on jkwsquirrel's story chapter in Brett Gets a New Boyfriend
Thanks! I know that for some readers I give too much away beforehand, but I figure it's better than having something come out of nowhere. I'm glad you are enjoying the background stuff. Sometimes it goes somewhere, and sometimes it's just there to be funny. I really appreciate your kind comments! -
Glad you are digging it. Thanks!

Well, I could tell you all about how Billy's a prude and afraid to admit he's gay even to himself and how that becomes a big plot point and kind of the theme of the next two books and how it'll just be so great to watch Billy lose his inhibitions until he finally gives himself fully to Brett, or maybe I'm just lazy and a bad storyteller. You decide.

Through the Glass Darkly
jkwsquirrel commented on jkwsquirrel's story chapter in Through the Glass Darkly
We're just experiencing the warning shots of the Brett vs. Dustin war. It was quietly bubbling under the surface, but it's about to explode, and poor Billy's caught in the crossfire. I think I broke Billy pretty severely in this part. Now we get the glue and put him back together. I think perhaps the best prescription for Billy's brokenness is a healthy dose of vitamin Brett! As always, Lisa, I'm so appreciative of your thoughts! You really make this experience enjoyable!
