I've enjoyed all of your stories in this collection. Your writing keeps me entertained and thoughtful. I notice that this is number twenty and the last of this series so that means I must have missed one 'cause the last I remember is "Boxing Day." I'll have to catch up by reading "Another One of Those Family Photographs" now but I couldn't get to that before sending you my accolades for a series well written. Thank you!

Did this owner of the cabin have previous experience with the pack of werewolves because he sure doesn't seem to be very freaked out by finding them there? What is the story behind this unlikely savior of Isaac and Westley? When will we find out? Great turn of events Comsie, now how can we get out of this corner we've all been forced into by the last few action packed chapters? We'll just have to wait and see.

I've always liked Zero teaching his lessons from a fish-lined room. He was very helpful to Justin in the past, I wonder if he'll be as useful speaking his part in the Vampire dreams. I'm anxious to find out what he has to say.

With Spencer being such a high maintenance friend taking all of Jake's time will his budding relationship with Alex ever be free enough to blossom? A romantic at heart, I'm still anxious for a love 💘 story amid dire circumstances.

I feel for Ethan trying to get the word faggot out of the school's vocabulary by merely getting it eradicated from his own locker. I'm glad that he sees that the problem goes much deeper than that and is preparing himself for any slurs that come his way for loving Drew. If only Drew could get on the same page I think that together they could face anything that comes their way. If the times have progressed as much as I hope they have then the two of them will find much more support among their fellow students than condemnation. Only facing the problem head on and united will tell the outcome. I hope for the best!

Zack's writing is on its way to the school, that's at least some good news! I hope he has the courage to turn it in to his teacher. Things could all turn out good for him as we all hope it does. He deserves a break finally. Waiting for the next chapter.

Drive-ins only show my age but they are great memories. Remember "Psycho" in a dark car 🚗 with your best friend and his parents? I wonder how they do the screen in a walk-in at the park? It sounds romantic, though. It's sure to be a fantastic time when you're in love 💘!

One of my favorite westerns ever! Move over Larry McMurtry.

Once again, Ariel puts a smile on my face bigger than any of your other characters Comsie! I won't say that he's the favorite of all the people I love 💘 in your stories, but he does leave me with the happiest feelings. Thank you!

And that diagnosis from Doctor Paladin makes sense to me. Much better a sleep disorder than a zombie infection! I hope he's right.

I can't see Evan passing by such a scrumptious possibility of a naked episode with his idol Chandler right there in the trailer-out-back of the set. It's bound to cause problems with his budding relationship with Grayson but that's yet to be seen. Hope for the best!

I echo all previous comments from Weinstein and add my frustration to the mix. I almost felt Trey asking, "Dallas, am I one of those boys?" I could only hope he could be so brave! In another world...

It's nice to see some good things happening in Justin's life again though I think there's little time for getting comfortable with your guard down for now. We haven't seen the end of Alec yet and I think justin's still got things to learn from the Jeweller so maybe he should stick to the plan and return there after tonight's visit with the family at the junk yard. I hope he keeps Taryn by his side because I think he can protect him better when they're together.

This chapter has made a great turn for the best. I'm so full of relief and love for Zack and his wonderful friends that it's hard for me to stop smiling. I'm afraid to cross paths with my sister (who I live with) while I'm wearing this silly grin. I read all day, every day, so I'll merely tell her that my latest book by Comicality has left me so happy that I can't come down from the rafters! Thanks Comsie for making my day! J Baxter

I echo others in thanking you for another great chapter in GFD, my all time favorite of your extraordinary stories! I can never get enough from you were you to write all night, every night. You'd get blisters on your fingers. I'm glad as always to see Justin flex his muscles and successfully scare off those who wish to harm him. I only hope he will always be as successful when fighting off those who wish to harm Taryn. I look forward to your next chapter.

It has been great reading a well-written story from an English point of view. I'm born and raised in California and we do and say things differently here it's enlightening to be immersed in another's culture for a few months. I've learned a lot from you and feel like I'm a better person because of reading this story. I must agree with others that it is, indeed, a great outing for a first novel. I hope that your target audience can be young closeted gay boys living at home. Their experiences are so much more enlightened than mine were 50 years ago when coming out offered no peer group at school to hang out with. Your characters kept me entertained and satisfied through each and every chapter and I thank you wholeheartedly for the experience! I also appreciate the many intelligent followers adding their comments at the end of the chapters! I'll be sure to read your next story as it develops and your previous writings posted on Gay Authors. I count myself as a fan of yours in great company!

I keep screaming at them NOT to do the things that they're doing but they just don't listen to me!!! What is Tristan's cell phone number so I can send him a text of warning and get them on the right track. I've got experience dealing with these situations that they've gotten themselves into and I can help them get away scott-free like I've always done if I can just exchange a few text messages with them on their hot 🔥cloned phone and they promise NOT to tell anyone about me or where they got their advice. My e-mail address is jbaxterjr86@gmail.com. Get in touch with me before it's TOO LATE!!!

I'm glad to see 👀that Tristan and Finn managed to finally arrive at a plan to date, even agreed to "take it slow". Keisha will be pleased to hear the news, but she must be a little bit disappointed with the way things went. All that angst with the sexy party clothes and that red jockstrap never saw 👀the light of day! Well, something to save for another time. (Finn will be so surprised!)

So, I thought Finn was taking Tristan to the lake for some night 🌙time skinny dipping but it looks like Jon-Jon and Leah beat them to it! I enjoyed the artist's rendition of the characters in Shenandoah High but my imagination had them younger than that. Noel Choi is a great artist and he is keeping true to the spirit of the story. He did a remarkable job.

I'm way past the target audience age myself, but I am enjoying it immensely too. I'm reading it right now, tesao, in the middle of the night like you are, staying up instead of sleeping. Thank you, imperfect_pisces, for entertaining us here in California all night long. You're a wonderful story teller. jbaxter

What a great coincidence, but you're the first person to know of the word pneumonoultramicroscopicvolcaniconiosis that I've ever come across since I first heard the word in the fifth grade in 1963. I was told that it was the longest word in the English language and have never in all those years found one longer. Thanks to all the coal miners who have contacted the disease, and thanks to you for sending me back to those years in elementary school from so long ago. Jbaxter

No one's commented on any of the chapters of Magic Man!!! What an oversight. It's been TEN years! What's up with that? Gidion's lessons on living a satisfying life for Gavin are fascinating and the outcome has been nothing but astounding!! I would agree with Gavin when he begs to see where these changes in his outlook will take him into the future. I'm sure he doesn't want to stop here when his dreams are actually within his grasp. Write him some more chapters so he can earn Joshua's love 💘and find his way to becoming one of the cool kids on campus. He will thank you as will I. Jbaxter

Want to chime in my accolades for another fantastic story! Alex is the little brother I always wished for but never got. Glad to see that you're making such good use of time spent at home, Comsie. I love 💘ALL your great work. How do I become a 'Premium' member to have total access to ALL your stories? I would love to make a contribution to the future of the Comicality Library. Jbaxter

This story just keeps getting better and better. Thanks, Comsie. I hope they can all make friends with their new acquaintances. We'll see how the story unfolds. Looking forward to the next installment. J Baxter

I didn't notice the reference to Tina Wheeler as the mother of Cain and Jake until it was pointed out to me by hyper92. Thanks for that, hyper92, and I have to apologize to Comicality for that oversight during my first reading of these pre-quills to Shelter Verse. It's not like me to not notice your endless creativity, Comsie. After all, though I may have come to the party late, I still claim to be your biggest fan. Though I'm commenting four years after you're posting of no one liking this chapter, I beg to differ with that sentiment. If I judge your chapters by number of tears shed then this chapter is the winner. I was totally broken up when Logan's wife made him promise from her death-bed to take care of Spencer after she is gone. That was touching. I do remember one chapter of yours, though, that had me so teared up that I couldn't continue reading; when you killed off one of your main characters (I won't give away which one to readers who haven't read it yet) in Gone From Daylight. I still have yet to forgive you for that one, Comsie. I hope you never do such an awful thing to one of your characters again. We readers come to know and love 💘them due to your extraordinary writing and it really leaves an open wound in our hearts when we are forced to let one of them go. Thanks for all you do writing so much for us in the year 2020. J Baxter
