Probably, but until then, I'll keep sipping on Howler Head banana bourbon that's made right here in my town. Kinda tastes like if Willy Wonka took his banana Laffy Taffy and made it alcoholic.

How you don't have a paid sponsorship with Ole Smoky yet is beyond my comprehension. By next year, I expect closing chapter notes with a "KBOIS" checkout discount code on Ole Smoky's website.

Glad you enjoyed the chapter This chapter was difficult for me. Both families represent what I've gone through with mine. I married into a warm and accepting one while leaving a fractured one. Lowe, the Alpa Slayer! I love it! You're totes welcome Holiday goodness? It's a possibility, but we have other avenues to go down... Fruit and pepper flavored liquor? Sounds like @kbois's obsession with Mango Habanero whiskey. Just wait until I tell her she can mix it half and half with Ole Smoky's Hunch Punch... I enjoy both the flavored and standard product. There's just something special about a blackberry moonshine mixing with a peanut butter whiskey. It'll always be creek to me. As a southern Indiana boy, I heard plenty of both creek and crick. I'm thrilled you enjoyed this chapter, mikedup. It certainly was an emotionalnone to write. Vincent dropping off the pan of mac was super funny! Always appreciate seeing your comments, Patch. ❤️

"Isn't it about done?" Vincent rolled his eyes. "What did I say ten minutes ago?" Grumbling, Mason shuffled into the living room. "We could already be eating…" Peering through the oven's window, he could barely see over either of the two giant, foil pans. It was the largest batch of macaroni he had ever crafted. Unfortunately, he thought he judged the timing right. I was off by half an hour. They've been baking forever! "Besides, Elaine had a waiting list for her oven. Everyone ne

Glad you're hooked! Hope you enjoy the rest of the prompt responses

Earned mine a few days ago as well. Can't help it. It's a great site!

Just zoomed in the picture, then stuck my eyeballs on the screen. I'd be the first.

Device usage: Gaming consoles?!? I'll need to add GA to my Switch and Xbox...

I'm 99% certain being aroused for that long dictates a doctor's appointment.

As per usual, Grumpy Bear has created another banger. Out of all of his Werebears series, this has been my favorite by far. Siku is a character like no other. Kind and gentle, with just a hint of obliviousness. The poor gay man hasn't even heard of RuPaul! But along his journey, cultures collide as he fights for his destined true love. Will old traditions prevail and Siku be left for loneliness, or will the readers see plenty of polar bear-on-tiger action that'll melt your phone screens? Go read it and find out!

@Grumpy Bear!!! You threw the biggest literary audible I've seen! You had me 100% certain my I'm Callin' It cap called Nameer and Ezekiel being mates, but then you yanked it away and made an even cuter couple. Nukilik has a lot to learn when it comes to current day-and-time teachings. Perhaps Nameer will be a great educator. He already taught Ezekiel a few Karma Sutra positions...

I knew Cyrus' "bad cop" routine would tickle your fancy. And you're not alone; I'd go running in the woods with ya.

Make sure you hold onto that line. You might tape it to a rock and throw it at me at some point... Not sure what else Kap and Cy have left to do, but I'm sure we'll see them a time or two before the ending 😉.

What an absolute treat! This was such a lovely chapter. I'm already in love with Izz. Do I smell the MC of the next book? Me thinks so. I'm still putting proverbial money on it. Ezekiel and Nameer!! Bring it on, Grumpy!

Maybe by our next visit to New York, Alex has talked Cyrus into paying some sort of rent, or have it taken out of his paycheck. . Thanks, raven. I always enjoy seeing your comments. Apologies if things weren't thought out. I s'pose we can see what Vincent and the gang are up to. Me thinks it's about time for Thanksgiving dinner... I certainly hope my Kentucky characters are well-rounded, considering I live in Kentucky. Thank you for the compliment. I wish I was relating to my life. I'd kill to be able to turn into a wolf and run through a forest. I like this aspect. I enjoyed writing Cyrus as the bad cop. It's not often his emotions are let loose. I thought long and hard about Sheila. I think she might have a plot somewhere down the road.

So quick to move onto Vincent and his to-do list. Aren't we curious when Ingle's going to take Dirk's honey pot?

“What’s going on?” Harold grumbled, “Pleasure, displeasure. I won't mention how rude it is to barge in without an appointment." Seeing the pompous jackass sit in the elegantly tufted chair, Cyrus was challenging himself. I haven’t been this furious in a long, long time. It’s taking everything in my power to keep this facade afloat. The bear clicked his tongue and spun to face Tilliman. “How rude of me! Have you two been introduced? Harold, this is Mr. Tilliman. He’s the chairman of the New

And kicking. I'll have your newest chapter ready by the morning .

Yes. Yes, I am.

Thanks for the concern, SR. I've cleared up most of my issues from the previous week, and I'm back to my usual self. I'm only halfway into the confrontation between Harold, Cyrus, and Tilliman... and I'm super excited about it!

@CincyKris I found the closest thing!

OOHHHHHH! I get it! $5 says Kage is gonna put ice cream on Elijah's nipples. They should've picked up some chocolate syrup... BTW kbois, my liquor store just got Ole Smoky's Cookie Dough whiskey. I have plans to mix it with some bourbon-based chocolate cream liquor and topping with mocha-flavored vodka-infused whipped cream.

The unpredictability was strong with this chapter, and ho-lee-shit was it good. Grumpy, this may be my opinion, but I believe this is your strongest chapter to date. I audibly gasped when you killed Charlie. Like... That's some Game of Thrones shit, and it made my heart plummet! PLUMMET! Complete with the classic falling-down-the-well whistle. Nimerah facing off against Colt was both unexpected, yet totally worthy. It was the only redeeming moment the hag had this whole book. The question remains is if she'll have another. With Nameer going with the remaining bears to Atikokan, will Siku and Shivay? I can see them staying in California in their new home, but that means living somewhat close to Mommy Dearest. I'm excited to see what's going to happen next. Before I do... I'm Callin' It! I'm gonna call this one out of left field and it's going straight out of the dang ball park! #nameerandezekiel Call me insane, but I can smell it. Grand Papa gets a cub, so to speak...

While I've never been to NYC, I keep hearing marvelous and silly events that happen on a regular. Regarding the insane antics, I love going using John Mulaney and Nick Kroll's Oh, Hello on Broadway as a reference. It's a fantastic two-man show on Netflix about two elderly men, one a Jewish actor who has a tendency to fall in romantic love with raccoons and the other a grumpy playwright that bullies him. They use a play to make fun of New York and theater. His Netflix special Tickle Fight was brilliant. I love a pun! Troubles are starting to go away, but it'll take some time to completely recover. I'm sure the Gages knew about Tasha and Lowe. They merely had Vincent request Caleb bring them for a visit soon. The distance between parents and their child can often lead to miscommunication, and this little section was partly a dig at my current situation. Although I live rather close to my parents (a forty-five minute drive), I sometimes don't have the means of seeing them, and that ends with me being labeled as a disappointment to the world. I'll halt my soapbox here, but just remember that distance can lead to a lack of communication, regardless of the relationship between the people.

Hm. Seems like we need some answers from Caleb and his lack of communication. As far as Cyrus and Tilliman, I think Harold kicked the nest, and our resident supernatural leaders are the hornets come to sting. The trashy jazz hands comes from an old Craig Ferguson bit about the magicians he brought onto The Late, Late Show. Glad I could bring giggles and cackles to you. Estranged is an interesting word. It's true and false at the same time, and I think we'll get some answers in a future chapter . With Dirk and Ingle, I don't think it'll take long for a police station to figure out they're dating. Don't have to be a detective to see signs of love... or when a certain big, bear watching his partner's ass. I can't wait to write about Thanksgiving, but I'll need to handle why Cyrus and Tilliman are in Harold's office first. LMAO! When you find it, share with the class. Thanks, Patch. And thank you, every one. The last few days have been some of the most difficult I've dealt with in a long, long time. The support I've had from friends, and now the GA community have been touching. Hopefully I'll get back on track soon. Glad you liked the chapter, mikedup! Thanks, centex. I'll try not to keep everyone waiting long. I'm currently without a phone, so my writing speed is hindered incredibly until I get it fixed.
