Really enjoying your flipping back and forth narrative. Great catching up with so many of the cast. Again thanks for your efforts. 💖

Thanks for the insight. Loved the bit about Graham and Cody.

Bill as you are starting on your next Volume, hope you are getting great enjoyment from this continuation.

So weird not having my Thursday CH-NG chapter fix. Eagerly awaiting Vol VI. 😎

Thank you for your continuing efforts. A nice conclusion. Some nice little bits. Think the next while is going to be a very lonely one for Alice. Wish you had given us a bit more feel for Frankie's better half, but glad he has found someone. Our prodgical son has grown into a find person; Benny must be over the moon for his favorite uncle. 😃 Hope you enjoy creating the tales of this wonderful family as much as we have enjoyed your journey. Take Care Danny, you have done Josh proud. I'm still working on my tale that I had earlier sent to you.

Again an other wonderful chapter. Pieces are nicely coming together. Question - do/did you have photo references that you used for your visuals of our various cast members? Also, do to the similarly between Tristan and Trey's family tragedy, is there a special bond between them. Also, same about Cole/Graham and Benny? Would like to think that the various uncle's would have been there to give that extra empathetic support to a child who's background is so similar.

One thing that I'd seen hinted, but for some reason really connected to me in this chapter is how this household is, in the best sense of the phrase, done by a committee of six. They compliment each other's strength's, they support and have the backs of each other - a truly loving and cooperative griup of brothers and their two dad's.

Love McCaffrey's books. However, the later books are fairly long slogs. I remember when first reading them, that there were some inferences about how imprinting might impact the sexuality of the rider. It is going to be rough on the twins when they find out about their mom. Has Danny kept Holly in the loop? Think that soon we are going to have a real tear-jerker of a chapter. Do hope that you allow the kids to say their good-byes in person, but like aways your call. Again thank you for your continued efforts. Hopefully, you will feel that you have enough left to say to continue into book 4. Best Wishes.

A great recount of another Curry tradition. You did a great job of building on the foundation layed. Poor Trey; 😉 Lol. Glad to see the Grand-pappies get fully involved.

I agree with you on this. Thankfully we have had a longer political record of gay rights being enshrined in our Charter of Rights and Freedoms. However, one of the two leading people up for PM, Andrew Scheer has compared gays to dogs and plays word games on most social issues. In Ontario, we have also elected a party with a leader who is pretty openly homophobic, Doug Ford (brother of Toronto's crack mayor, Rob Ford) However, we also have made it impossible for schools in Ontario to not have a Gay/Straight allience in any school if students request it. Steps forward and steps back.

Like always, an other pleasant journey with the Curries. Glad to see the CHF mentioned. Wonder how parents would have reacted if this story was set when Danny was starting at Penn State. Nice to give a touch of how things have gotten better. Needead Danny's Freshman's passage again to remember how it was for him. Thinking back Josh and Jake were a couple, but were still being very descrete. If you do chose to do V4, I sincerely hope that you use it to explore this theme of were we as a society have made progress, were we are stalled and where we are taking steps backwards, especially for LGBTQ teens. Take care for now, Jim

Trey is such a caring Poppa. Nice touch. Your little touches are what makes your writing so effective. Thanks again for your efforts. It is these character bits that I am trying to pick up in my homage work. Trey is the thoughtful, more Maternal of the pair; as is Brandon, as well as Josh.tThey are the ones that I believe for the most part the youth have turned to for their social-emotional support. While, the youth now tend to turn to Danny, Dion and Jack a bit more for the practical hands on problems. Three other points/ questions: 1. We don't see or hear much from Jake. Is this conscious or just, you don't have any moments for him lately. It could be interesting if there is some tension and distancing between Danny and Jake. They just don't seem to be that close. 2. Have you given any thought if Vinnie and Kevin would want children at any point? 3. Are we going to see a baby from any of the straight marriages? Would love to see it be Cole's Really rooting for his happiness.

Trey is such a caring Poppa. Nice touch. Your little touches are what makes your writing so effective. Thanks again for your efforts.

Again a new and enjoyable slice of life moment. The type that just makes you have a smile when finished reading the chapter.

A little bit of "bumps in the night". Question, in a lot of ghost stories, people get chills or something when in contact with a ghost, ie walking through one, any of that with your interpretation of the concept of ghosts?

It's haunted. 😉 But Josh knows a guy ...😎

Thank you for an other chapter, best way to start a week. All is well for the Curry Clan. I think this explains some of the comments feeling that the novel is moving towards it's conclusion. But, I think you are just giving the family some time to be just a family, not running from one crisis to the next. This will be a time that all involved will look back upon and have very happy memory. These are the times, in our own lives we all treasure. So thank you for a slice of real life, not all fiction needs to be dealing with crisis, sometimes, just little boo-boos like a twisted ankle. Soon enough, Holly and the Twins will have their heart ripped when their mom finally passed. They will need to have had this period of contentment and bonding to help pull them through that profound lost. I'm both looking but not looking forward to this passage. But, know that it will be as powerfully written as you did when we lost Brett and Cody. Glad to see that Ryan is stepping up in the roll as big brother of the house. He at times has had a self-absorbed streak. He's growing up. So little Joshie's is now a teen. If you do do a new novel, I do hope you focus a bit more on His and Benny's relationship, as they enter High School. Now that they have crossed the final frontier, where are their heads at. Is it just fun, or something different. Again, thanks for your continuing efforts, truly appreciated.

Still working on what I posted you about earlier. Hope you will be pleased.

Danny and Brandon have learned well from the master (Josh) on how to raise children. "Say what you mean and mean what you say". Nice to see more of the first Gen visit. Sad to see this novel whinding down. 💖

I guess I was referring to official adopted children. Actually, a few hints you have made me quite curious to how Ryan is processing everything. Think of the NG kids he is one of the most complex. Also, you dropped a bit of a hint about something going on with Benji - hope that you are able to go a bit deeper there as well.

An other great chapter. So glad that each got the letters and how they responded. Wonder how Ryan, feels about not being the offical baby any longer. Would love to see a bit where he has to come to the rescue in some way of one of the little ones. Seeing him as a bit more than a horndog. Also, love to know about what really is going on in his head about Holly, Owen, Noah and himself. I expect that he is one mighty confused teen, hope you show an indpth one-on-one with Danny and Ryan. Was nice to see a bit with Jessie, but wish you would have given a bit more about what is going on in his life. Again, continuing to enjoy you Curry Journey. And eagerly awaiting your decision about CHNG#4.

Another solid chapter.

A second strong, yes keep the journey going.

Of course you gave good and fair answers. I can only slightly appreciate the time, effort - the blood sweat and tears, as they say - that you have put into this extended novel of the Curtis family. I fully understand and accept your choices (although, I still kind of wish you had unlimited time (wink), but know, that you write mostly for your own pleasure and we are just along to enjoy the ride (and one hell've a ride); therefore greatfully and humblely enjoy each chapter you share with us. There are many different experiences in the Trans area to explore, not necessarily one looking at full transition. Just see so much hate and violence that is now focused on this element of the community. It would be a challenge to write, just as it would be for the boys to adapt to living with.
