The webcrawlers don't have access to certain areas. I doubt we'll have to close.

They were all good entries... and crackerwriter said it well. Take a moment to read them and vote.

Happy Birthday! :king: Many more to you

I've updated the logo to a Gay Authors Christmas logo. Thinking of doing one for the Jewish holiday that I don't have time to look up the spelling of at the moment. My aunt married a nice Jewish fellow and they are raising the children Jewish. So I'm open to both major holidays here.

I've got to go see this... but I'll have my 14 yr old cousin with me... and they are carding. So I'll be seeing more family friendly things tomorrow.

FYI... November saw about 2,200,000 hits on the entire site. We transferred about 12 GB. This was up about 1 GB and 150,000 hits from October. We also now have some sort of webscrawler on the site pretty much all the time. (Google, MSN and Inktomi (Yahoo) seem to be the most prevelant)

hns, I think you put it very well. It is very rare that I actually read all the way through a sex scene. I've practiced writing them... but writing those kind of scenes makes you feel rather naked in front of an audience, as it lets everyone know what you the author think about sex... I'd much rather have plot then characters jumping from one bed to another in a graphically described sense. That's why I like Gone From Daylight...

Well... As for favorite Authors... since I host Gay Authors, I've been known to go after them for bringing their sites here... my stuff, when I have time to write, is on my site here. http://myr.gayauthors.org/ Gay Authors, of course, isn't just for authors. It's for everyone. The domain name of gaystories was taken (still is) when I founded gayauthors a few years ago. I strongly encourage people to promote GA. It's forums like this one that helps authors improve and helps encourage others to write. That's what I like best... seeing new authors having success with their writings. I'll also say a word about feedback... it is dreadfully important. Make sure you email an author and let him/her know what you think.

Get well soon Pyro!

Happy Birthday! :king:

I always drop a PM to the person sending donations, unless it's anonymous. I generally have difficulty getting to the post office before it closes during the week. Depends on when I leave work. So, it might not b euntil Saturday. Myr

That was just a nifty skin I found and downloaded. if I truly get some time... I'll be making my own for the site.

I have been fiddling around with the Story Archive. If for some reason it's not working, try again in a little while. I'll be messing with it on and off. I have managed to update the linking system with some slick code I found. The views will still be counted as they used to be, but you'll no longer go through that redirection page. The change that people will notice is that if you over over a story link, you can now see where it is linked. This has the added bonus of helping us increase our Google ranking. If there are any problems you notice and it stays for more than an hour, please drop me a PM. I'll correct it ASAP. Thanks.

What the International Man of Mystery says! I only been through Canada.

So there I was, Decking the Halls, with boughs of holly, and it occurred to me that I didn't know what constituted gay apparel. Anyone know? I mean, how could I Don my gay apparel, if I don't know what that is?

Until I get a credit card processor set up, the only way is to go to your bank, get some US greenbacks and mail them to the address on the support page.

I waited until I was 24. My parents took it well enough. Shocked the hell out of them, actually. Something more might have come of it, but 9/11 happened a few days after I told them...

Home... what a day.
