I'm guilty of accidentally not putting a story as Completed. I kept getting PM's for a couple of months after asking when the next chapter would be out.. and I kept answering the story was complete.. lol. I was confused until I finally noticed..

Happy Birthday!

I personally wouldn't give permission for a story that I have wrote a significant portion of, to another person. Only if I really wanted to see it finished and I was physically/mentally incapable of doing so myself. Otherwise, I'd rather keep it stored and maybe revisited at a later date. Usually though, these stories would be completed if the Author was interested in writing period... and if they are receiving the feedback they want.. with the direction they like. I have lost my way with a couple of stories - I don't think if I completed them people would like the direction in which they were headed. Doesn't mean I won't revisit them later or scrap the story and write the idea over again. I'm doing that right now with an idea I had back in my early e-fiction days of writing. If that goes well, I may revisit other "deleted works" here. I would though, encourage people who want to write a similar idea to a story they like of mine, to go ahead and do so. As long as it doesn't border on plagiarism, I'd be fine with that. Mine are pretty straight forward romance ideas that are likely a dime a dozen as it is. I'd say the real trouble would be with other genres that have more strict rules and world building. I wouldn't give permission to those at all... only because a significant portion of the work is done pre-writing stage... and that I just couldn't hand over to someone else...

Classic Authors are Signature authors that are on hiatus/missing in action, but if they are posting they are considered Signature Authors. If they continue to post regularly, they'll likely be moved back to Signature. To sum up - Totally counts. We still won.

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday!

Thanks for reading and reviewing! I'm glad you liked it through all the quick twists and turns the story took. It was at least a happy ending through all the drama.

Yep, Sadie is finally happy. And, I believe in the next couple of chapters - the mother's motivations will become more clear. Thanks for reading so far, I'm enjoying your reviews! I'm trying not to spoil the story for you.

It's Steven's birthday! And although I know I have a dreaded 30th 29th + 1 bday announcement coming from him - which I shall merrily beat him for, in less than 4 months. I shall happily wish him a happy birthday! So, Happy Birthday Steven! Hope you have a wonderful day!

There is a lot that happens in a very short span of time with this story.. very fast paced. I know that may throw a lot of readers off the story, but I like how it progresses. Hopefully you will as well. Thanks for reading/reviewing. And she is a bit bossy... Not the very motherly type for someone that just found their son in a hospital to say the least.

The Prologue is dark, yes. It is somewhat disconnected from the story as a whole.

Welcome Gee Whillickers! Sorry your story(ies) were stolen and claimed. I just think, if you're wanting to be praised for something.. want some sort of attention.. want to contribute to a writing community to just WRITE. If it sucks, it sucks.. But you get better.. if you try. Anywho, thanks Cia, for the tips to keep our work safe. As expansive as the internet is, I say many of us are victims without even knowing. This is why I like GA - the staff and most importantly the readers fight for the authors here.

I've seen videos of him w/out his mustache, after seeing Dorian for so long with it, makes me not like him without it. I think it adds to his personality. He is a very interesting character to say the least, out of all the M/M romance options, his is the only one that I'm interested in. Iron Bull, I don't like the overly brutish type either. Cassandra, Solas, Cullen, and Dorian are the four that I have a difficult time turning down in a new play through. I have a difficult time playing as a Dwarf or Qunari as well. I've tried multiple times, but I just fall out of interest pretty early. I want to see what reactions some of the side-quest people have with them, but I can easily spoil myself with videos from youtube.

Happy Birthday you no good Cards fan. Have a great one.

I think he'll move on and not become stagnant in a company he doesn't trust and such. I could have went on and really sunk myself into the Job-stuff, but I think most of the romance had already went full circle, it was definitely moving faster. So I was afraid that it would just be boring to get to the same ending. Anyway! Thanks for reading and liking the story.

I thought more of the family history needed to be cleared up, so that the "drama" could make a bit more sense. I also knew I wanted for Jason to have a happy ending, so think positive - I think he's found it.

Thanks for reading! I'm glad you enjoyed the story.

Early afternoon light brightened the small living room. I was bent over a stack of papers, the cat hovering in my lap. At first Sadie was pretty jealous of the little furball, but her tennis ball kept her easily distracted. Stretching I rolled my head around loosening the tension in my neck jumping when a smaller, softer hand than I was used to slid across the small coffee table and grabbed hold of mine. “Enough working,” Amelia said squeezing my hand, “I want to see more pictures.” “I’d

Whyyyy,,, just whyyyy did you post this? lol..

Lumber-sexual isn't just a gay trend though it is a direct contrast to the ever popular Metro-Sexual or men that are too clean cut and "perfectly sculpted." It isn't a way for gay men to "hide behind their beards" in hopes of not having to confront their obvious homosexuality.

Happy Birthday!

They are both a bit well practiced in it, they have been doing that their entire marriage... sadly. The Father, to be barely there - I would have liked to have him fleshed out more, but I knew if I did that, I would turn this story into a more sordid thing than it already was and maybe.. dragged it along. But yes, safe to say they are good at what they do, the manipulating and getting what they want from people - Jason and to a point Jason's Grandmother and Grandfather had been the first defectors that started this entire mess. I hope you enjoyed the story - it is different from what I usually end up with, at least with the characters. Only the Epilogue is left! I hope to have it out sometime next week. I hope it sheds more light on their family dynamics that I didn't touch on in the story.. and wraps everything up nicely.

Yep, both of them were guilty.. Terrible to try to out maneuver one another. In a way Jason had buried himself into college and life that he didn't want to see all that.. but it is good that he did and was able to leave. Only the Epilogue is left, I hope to shed more light on that entire situation... I'm glad you kept reading through all the twists and turns this story took, not all of them made complete sense. But human nature doesn't either.. lol.

Yes, I couldn't imagine splitting up my twins.. no no. They won't even sleep in different rooms. When one gets hurt the other one cries.. it's just adorable.. aside from when they were younger and you were trying to feed two babies and the husband was snoring.. lol. All that aside, it may come easily for them. They deserve that. As far as Amelia's hearing goes, I wanted her to be just partially deaf - to add to the pile of bullshit their parents put them through.. I guess it may not have read like that.. but that's okay as well.

On the ride back home my heart raced. I felt my hands clam up and my breathing refused to go deep inside my lungs. I knew that I was close to another panic attack, I had so many in my waking mornings to know what they felt like. The envelope was in my lap, ready to approach Mom as soon as I stepped out of the truck. When we drove through the gates I groaned after we cleared the decorative trees barely holding on to the last of their blooms. There was a tent set up in the front lawn and cars
