    Three cheers for the salute and the down-to-earth synopsis by @scrubber6620. We're all having fun speculating, and on occasion maybe jerking your chain just a little bit, but there is no doubt you're producing a unique story in an excellent series that is being widely enjoyed. That you've "won the day" thirty-two times, most recently a mere three days ago, is testament to your success.

    This was a pleasant surprise this evening, thank you. A nice, low-key, rural experience after the frenzied SoCal flurry (sorry, my bias is showing). Wondering if Cassidy is just a rural fling or maybe more. Actually, I was hoping he'd run into Shannon in the grocery store.
  3. I just went through what you are going through. It was confusing even though I was just "relearning", having been here as an author once before. It's a little confusing at first, but after you do it once, it will become clear. @drpaladin was very helpful when I was trying to get it together. This is likely the page you were starting from: https://gayauthors.org/stories/ Use the "Add Story" tab and fill out all of the pages correctly and save. That will initiate the story. Then you have to add the first chapter as a separate step. I mention that because it confused me. @Carlos Hazday was correct that the moderation queue usually takes a couple of days, but it can take longer, so be patient. It will be worth it in the end

    There is an interesting trend in the comments here and in the last chapter expressing the opinion (hope?) that Shannon is out of the picture. I wouldn't write her off yet. She's not lycan, because Trevor would have known it. But there are some interesting human/lycan interfaces in this particular community, and it wouldn't surprise me in the least were she to show up in that capacity. It also wouldn't surprise me to find her playing for the other team. It wouldn't even surprise me if she had been a McKinney plant at Harvard. More speculation for you to enjoy, Wolf
  5. I enjoyed these four poems, and hope you will write more. I'm delighted to see you expressing yourself this way

    To hell with Nifty, you two should start working on a prime-time soap opera and rake in some bucks.

    Nothing inherently wrong with Nifty - I've had a variety of "good times" there and I have no doubt of your ability to "entertain" - but I had this sudden vision of Darth Vader inviting Luke Skywalker to give himself to the dark side...

    I've had both transmissions over the years, but I've avoided having both at the same time just for that reason. \ As a senior citizen, I've found it wise to simplify. My classmates would have laughed at a four-wheel-drive pickup with an automatic, but it fulfills ALL of my requirements

    Well, for a story that nearly ended up in the trash, this is going swimmingly I loved the dancing descriptions I came across a statistic a few days ago - only 18% of U.S. drivers are capable of driving a stick shift. Once upon a time when the world and I were young, you weren't a man if your first car was an automatic. A while back, I went to a car wash with the stick-shift vehicle I owned at the time. The young male who dried the car had to get a young female to drive it over to the waiting area.

    Nice to see Brandon again. I love the interaction with Trevor, and with Tom, and hope there's more. And I see your enthusiasm for the Kardashians hasn't changed recently Oh yeah, please ask Brandon to send me a half-case of that Australian wine. I'm sure he won't miss a few bottles. 🍷
  12. I dearly love this one. I hope I resemble it - to a certain extent - but I doubt it.
  13. So, I'm sufficiently ignorant that I didn't realize yours was Haiku but I can count to five and seven so I guess we'll have to call the result "Extended Haiku". A Haiku game would be better than a Limerick game - the results would be more... umm... acceptable. This was an all-guy squadron, and some of the Plexiglas Poetry results were either pornographic or politically incorrect . The one I can remember was both. Maybe that's why I can remember it so well 🤭.
  14. But, Libby, with only a few minor additions, yours can be beautiful too without any change in meaning... Poetry: So hard! Some make it so beautiful Mine just sounds like soft Warm horse-apples falling on Clean newly-spread straw Sorry, that was a brief trip down memory lane. When I was in the USAF years ago, we used black grease pencils to write quick notes and reminders on Plexiglas desk protectors - and we wrote what we called "Plexiglas Poetry". One person would write the first line of a limerick. The next person to come along would add one more line, etc. We didn't produce any publishable classics, but we did have fun. I wonder if that would make a suitable "game" on GA. Looking forward to what the anthology produces.

    1) What kind of torture do you have in mind? Tickling would likely be inadequate. Probably hot wax too. Maybe a lengthy edging session? Cattle prod? This could be interesting. 2) I think I see where some of the kinky influence is coming from, as if I didn't already suspect it.

    Well, I'm very glad it didn't end up in the trash bin. I loved this chapter - the fast pace, character interactions (both verbal and otherwise), but most of all the diversity of the characters. Variety is the spice of life. I'll be looking forward to more

    Yeah, he's ancient history. Some great musical satire, though, a lot of it still relevant.

    Great to see another Running With The Pack story underway, and it's also great to see Trevor moving to center stage. A semi-relevant line from an old Tom Lehrer song just came to mind: "Second fiddle's a hard part I know. When they don't even give you a bow." Looks like Trevor got handed a bow - he deserves some attention. Looking forward to the rest.
  19. Perhaps they're getting rid of undesirable employees.

    The Story

    I note that the responses were all over the map. I experienced all six available choices in a mere 874 words, which I think reveals how compelling this story is. In the end, I chose the only response that had not been selected - an indication of hope for the future of all four characters.
  21. If laughter is the best medicine, it's also the best therapy. Begin your journey to better mental health right here.
  22. I think I've stayed there...
  23. A very good point about the clothing. Perhaps Justin and Kyle will have to occupy the bed until the suitcase returns.
  24. Finally, a simple explanation of what Moses was trying to get at all those years ago. Read it, and your dietary perspectives will never be the same again.
