    Chapter 11

    I only exceed my self-imposed Prime budget by $28. Not too bad.
  2. After taking well over 50 trips around the sun, I still am gobsmacked when it comes to the sheer idiocy of humanity. My new job is big on continuing education... however, when I'm forced to take a six week course on the "neuroscience of communication", I can't help but roll my eyes. It's now roughly 10 hours of my life I will never get back because people no longer possess one thing... common sense. I'm not sure how much hope there is for future generations... but it's looking pretty bleak at the moment. Hopefully y'all have a good second half of the week!

    Chapter 11

    Poor Matt. He must have been to hell and back if he's in such poor shape. Andy feels like he's in over his head, which begs the question-- is it ever OK to do something illegal? I think in a situation like this, if I had the means, I would do the same thing. I've never deliberately broken the law (speeding doesn't count), but I'll be the first to admit I've thought about inflicting bodily harm on someone on occasion. Society has laws for a reason, if we didn't, there would be a lot more chaos in the world. However, if people can break those rules for nefarious purposes, why can't they do the same for altruistic ones? Awesome chapter, tim!

    He keeps escaping. He needs a locked doghouse.

    Chapter 10

    You're right. Matt and Ahmet would have a difficult time in the real world unless they could find a place where they were accepted for who they are and the situation they're enduring. Ahmed has already said his religion is at odds with his sexuality. It's probably safe to assume if he has any family they would probably shun him for it. It will be interesting to see how things unfold.

    Chapter 10

    Andy's life seems sad to me. Other than Maeve and his parents, he really does lead a solitary existence. Writers can be odd individuals (Hush @weinerdog) with plenty of quirks that make them difficult to get along with... hence why his relationship with Tony imploded. Hopefully he'll realize there is more beyond writing, doing book tours and existing on his isolated island. This chapter tells us a lot about Matt. Even though he is owned by Kanaan and abused by him, he's shown that he's capable of compartmentalizing that. He's developed a relationship with Ahmet and can recognize feelings of love... something victims of human trafficking often have difficulties with. His resilience is amazing. There's hope for him if he can ever escape his situation. Awesome chapter tim!

    Chapter 9

    Are you sure about that? 🤭
  17. I absolutely love Michael's version of "cooking". Pizza is the ultimate I'm not going near the kitchen today food! Thank you for the reminder that I'm getting old. My mind refuses to believe it and often regresses to about 13.. lol. Have a great day everyone!

    Chapter 9

    Well said, my friend. It truly puzzles me when comments such as @Talo Segura's are made. Readers, of course, are entitled to their opinions, but when those comments reflect what seems to be a cursory glance at the chapter, they often come off as being nescient. I've found that a lot of readers will read a chapter more than once, especially if it's a powerful or impactful one before they comment. Sometimes there is a lot of information to process. This story is developing quite nicely. Because of the subject matter, there is no way it can be all sunshine and rainbows. It may not be possible for Matt or Andy to ever get there, but we need to keep ourselves open to the possibilities.

    Sometimes it's good to be bad 😉

    Chapter 9

    Mr. Black isn't even sure why he allowed Andrew on board for the auction. It's been speculated that it's purely ego and a power trip.

    Chapter 9

    The beginning of this chapter is one of acceptance and hope for Andrew. He's dealing with the ramifications of what he has learned about human trafficking. Hopefully he's book will educate some of his readers. The last part of the chapter is one of acceptance and despair for Matt. He's resolved himself to his situation and knows he must endure in order to survive. Great writing tim!
