Well said. I so agree with you, @Marty perhaps others could reflect on this question: So aesthetics is ok for females as well? Here in Spain virtually every female baby is pierced to have ear rings from birth. Sorry if I have offended anyone but ……
-
I felt totally included as did, I imagine, the large number of uncut males amongst your readers. Well put!
-
I agree. A touch chp written with sufficient detail to be clear but not dragged out for the reader. Well done!

One of my ideas of hell is going to a party where I know no-one except the host (always busy) or a friend who abandons me in seconds…….

I totally agree with @Summerabbacat This is a great read and now we see the depths of the mother/son relationship and the effects of the father walking out. good stuff!

I was going to write easily one of the best chps but they have all been so good. Nevertheless, it is an exceptionally good piece of writing. The sex was, well, HOT for one as timid and shy as I, but the insights into Rusty and being about to simply let go and enjoy the moment were spot on. A wonderful chapter, Laura. Thank you.

A couple of months on from @Doha’s comment and the comment seems evermore true. Fun writing, great bed scenes but the depth of characterisation gets better and better. Great stuff.

Chapter 4 - The School Board
Gary L commented on Jeff Burton's story chapter in Chapter 4 - The School Board
Thank you!!! Another superbly executed chapter. Your prose style is delightful and in these four chps you have written with a depth of feeling for your characters that you learnt from life rather than a book. Well done!- 32 comments

This is one installment I have been really looking forward to and the first chp more than met my hopes and expectations. It’s a cracker of a chapter. After another heavy week of work this is a pure delight. Thank you Carlos!

Bible Sex Laws in Limericks
Gary L commented on Refugium's story chapter in Bible Sex Laws in Limericks
The long ago seminarian in me found this deeply shocking and then the ex-seminarian in me found this very, very funny. Well done! -
I agree and was surprised by the reaction to her words to Jacob. But the way we differ and debate is a sign of how the author has stimulated us. Love this story.

So it wasn’t Travis’s dad…… it was Travis. My god, Mark, this is getting pretty torturous. I thought Escorial and SF life was complicated but then you take us back to the life in Malibu. Not sure I get the decision to visit Squires but it’s Will’s life. great stuff, Mark. Many thanks

Perfectly put @Dan South. The moment when Jacob is curled up in a ball was so powerfully written I felt that I was there watching the horrendous pain flowing out of Jacob. And now the school administrators, um, I fear them and their liability fear-led roles more than the judge, frankly. I await on tender hooks. This story has really emotionally engaged many readers and Jeff you should be really proud. This is a very worthy addition to a site that has very high standards and expectations of its authors. And since hugs played a big part in the chapter, here’s a few from me: 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Starting down the rabbit hole
Gary L commented on leo4567's story chapter in Starting down the rabbit hole
Very enjoyable! Keep it up…… 🤩 -
Stories that change you.
Gary L commented on Jeff Burton's blog entry in Thoughts, Oddities and Utter Chaos
A deeply moving and beautifully-written expression of so much of my reaction on reading Jeff’s entry. We are not alone. That is the truth that saved many of us in the past, keeps us safe in the present and gives us hope for whatever the future might throw at us. -
It shows a bit in your writing, Jeff. But perhaps that’s what makes your writing so interesting. You are my GA find of 2023. Keep it up, please. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

After one chapter I was intrigued, after two, I’m hooked! This is great stuff.

Chapter 2 - The Aftermath
Gary L commented on Jeff Burton's story chapter in Chapter 2 - The Aftermath
I totally agree. Whilst treating of a not totally unfamiliar, typical, school drama, the author has transformed it by the quality of his writing, the depth of his characterisations and the realistic portrayal of the client and his therapist. This is really good writing @Jeff Burton. Can’t wait for more!!! thank you 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩- 18 comments

Hi James, yes I got distracted but I’m back on board! BTW, I’m off to Ravello via Barcelona in June. We are going to see Parsifal with Klingsor’s Magic Garden supposedly based in Ravello. With the orange trees in full blossom here in Valencia it’s easy to put on Wagner, close my eyes, and dream I’m back in Ravello. keep writing, please, your prose is wonderful, a masterclass in descriptive and emotional language. 🤗🤗🤗

Such a beautiful read. Great writing.

Too much for my blood pressure issues!

A shameful confession: I have been treated to two amazing trips to Mexico in the 90s and only agreed so long as there was a guarantee of only eating in restaurants and hotels that offered an “international” menu. CJ and Ozzie would be scandalised! And CH as well!

Mega-thanks, Mark. Another amazing treat that you have given us. (BTW re reading Granger’s journey down the Nile as the alert arrived!) Huge hugs from Spain. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
