Nooo... lmao. I most certainly did not. I barely dated long enough to go to homecoming dances and my proms. I didn't do the sex thing and that was something I didn't compromise on. Guys knew that about me, so my dating was mostly with guys that knew they were in it for movie nights, school chaperoned dances, a one wine-cooler limit for me and an earlier night back home from parties, etc.

Pop music, flip-phones, Myspace, movie rentals, and a chromed out pink Mitsubishi Eclipse... that was my teenage 2000s.
-
Yeah, young me did not give a shit about messing anyone's fictional life right up. I think I tortured people in both of my first two stories.. I'm glad I can't remember most of my early writing. But, I honestly think it was a strong foundation to branch and build from, rough as they are. That's why they're still here. I had zero formal education on creative writing. Well I still don't, aside from one semester in College that focused 1/3 of the writing on creative writing. It is a different animal than what 98% of the rest of my writing had to be during my entire education.

It sounds like I've really done Charlie in... I vaguely remember the ending to this story... bits and pieces are starting to come back to me. Which is scary, because I know... I know what I did.
-
I am very attached to dogs. I couldn't write a dog death in my stories now it would break me. I absolutely without a doubt couldn't. So, if there's a dog in my story now, know that it is safe and sound and a good pupper.
-
Sounds like my teenage brain didn't want to research such things. Makes you aware that I was a good girl in my youth and never crossed the lie that had blue lights in my rearview.
-
I think you're seeing that I actually don't have a thing for wet butts. As I'm a lady. Also, Gina pops up a lot in my stories too.. I am predictable with my damn names. You're now over halfway through, you've soldiered on... for better or worse.
-
Yeah, I'll take your word 100% as the honest truth, the alternative is to force @wildone to reread this story for me and call you a liar when you've lied to me. Could be a fun game. I think he's busy this weekend though, Canadian things probably.
-
I did, I killed the dog. The rest I haven't a clue about. She was older though, right? I didn't out of the blue kill off a young dog, did I?
-
I KNOW... I laughed, because you commented that the dog was next... and I glanced at the opening line of dialog and there she was... I can't even feel bad as you were warned.

I do hope Barbie is a nickname and I didn't name a character Barbie, I'll never forgive myself. I think I remember Charlie being a walking punching bag, something I can't stand writing/reading now. Where the protagonist can't catch a break and life keeps dragging him down, punching/kicking while he's down, and he never catches a moment of peace. Is this their first kiss? Right after a funeral.. ouch.
-
Carol, Charlie... well the C names are still prominent I see. And cringe on the Doctor leaving something of that nature on the answering machine, my goodness. Sorry if I do what you don't want done with the father figure... how many chapters are in this story, I'll have to look..
-
I'd say any depiction of sexy stuff would be rather horrific coming from teenage me... I am scared to imagine such a thing.
-
I just noticed that this story still suffers from the hidden formatting thing whenever stories were transitioned from Hosted Sites/the old version and onto Stories. I should probably rectify that and take away all that hidden formatting. I honestly don't know if I still have access to the original documents to these stories though, I'd have to look. I am notoriously bad about not backing up files to things... Derek is homeless? Derek is also the name to one of my main gays in real life... I wonder if he appreciated being named in a story of mine... I think Derek is also a name that is similar to Gavin, I've used it multiple times, I'm thinking.
-
I thought this story was depressing? I must not be remembering it correctly...
-
Then you know what you have to look forward to then, sometimes it is better to quit whilst you're behind.
-
I'll remain in the dark about that, "but damn..." because I'm not going to reread this story. Charlie is one of my favorite names though. I may have to use it in new writing for a project I'll enjoy writing. I stand by my older works for what they are, but I'm guessing most people as established over the years as I am likely would've gotten rid of these really old stories by now... I don't know.
-
I apologize if I did that... I can't remember.
-
He left Duke? Well I guess we can safely say this story is based somewhere around North Carolina??? I think there's been a few stories of mine written in North Carolina for some reason. Shadows and TBY apparently was also based in North Carolina... and I think Are You Christian? I'm not even from effing North Carolina... I've only been to that state a grand total of one time... and it was due to an alternative route going elsewhere.
-
Don't they go to the beach? Is this the story they go to the beach? If they stay dry at the beach, it's their own damn fault.
-
I hope not. I couldn't tell you either way, but I hope not, I'm thinking.
-
He most certainly will not be! 😮 Sigh, sports balls. The story I started titled Ellis doesn't have sports balls either. Maybe since you're reading my early works and scaring the hell out of me I'll be pushed to start that... or other things. I do have other things, as you know... to think on. If this is an attempt to dangle something else more shiny in front of you, then your mission may be accomplished... just give me time!
-
And I'm still entirely in the dark. I may stay that way, I am very hard on my earlier works. If I try to linger here very long then I get weighed down by wanting to heavily edit, rewrite, delete it... and I lose motivation for other things.

Thank you for doing the research before I googled.
