Is that what the southerners did when they inserted an apostrophe and changed you all to y'all?

Shakespeare was famous for his soliloquies. Since I live alone, I talk to myself a lot, so is each time I do it a soliloquy?

Let me introduce myself. My name is Jack Fletcher and I’ve been a detective with the River City Police Department for the past eight years and recently I’ve been assigned to a series of fatal and near fatal cases. Even though our community deals with its share of crimes, the severity of these particular crimes was unusual. While all of the cases I investigate are serious, this group of cases was especially troubling, at least for me. You see, I’m gay and it’s a known fact at work, an

A gay man, Robert Campbell, gets severely beaten after performing in a Drag Show. Other crimes against members of the gay community soon follow, and all of these cases are assigned to a gay detective. Will he get the cooperation needed to solve these crimes or will he face numerous and unnecessary roadblocks?

This is not your usual fantasy story. Even though Tolkien first created the modern Orc, which he based on much older tales about Goblins that went by names similar to Orc, Tolkien described his Orcs as a fierce, warlike, and brutal race. This author, however, has chosen to show us that Orcs also have a gentler, understanding, and more affectionate side as well. Although the main character, Ewel, is human, we see how he is treated after firs t being captured. We watch how his situation slowly changes over time as he gains some acceptance and trust from the Orcs, although we are also led to believe that some Orcs will never fully accept him. Being someone who enjoys fantasy stories of this type, I found this to be an enjoyable and awkward love story between an Orc and human, which was based on mutual respect.

intractable - Word of the Day - Sat Jul 8, 2023
Bill W commented on Myr's blog entry in Writing World
Sometimes we're attracted to a person and only later discover how intractable they actually are. They'd merely put up a good front temporarily. -
A touching love story that shows how a relationship that has lasted many years can withstand the obstacles that life places in its path. You will laugh, cry, and be deeply touched as you proceed through this story, and it will let you know what a loving and enduring relationship is all about.

If you're looking for an unusual and heart-warming romance, this will fit the bill. Two young men meet and quickly bond over a common ability they possess, and from there one helps guide the other through the experience of what falling in love is all about. The story is well-written and captivating, even though it can also be a little dark, and I highly recommend it.

A powerful, riveting, and well-written story that explores the highs and lows of marriage and raising a dysfunctional family. I found it heart-warming at times, as well as upsetting and terrifying at other times, and yet I couldn't stop reading. Kudos to the author and I recommend it to anyone who doesn't mind going through an emotional roller coaster ride. I know you'll quickly discover what I mean when you read it.

It was a sad story and I wonder if Joel would have gone through with his plan if Trace hadn't stopped. The problem is, I'm left wanting a a resolution, because I doubt he'll be able to stay with Trace for long. It didn't seem as if Joel took any of his clothes with him, and he didn't take his money, since he told his little brother where it was and to use if for whatever he wanted. That leaves me wanting to know if things eventually improved at home, and if not, what Joel was going to do? From what he said when he was informing us about Jonny, he'll be a senior, 12th grade, in the fall, so will he continue his education? I enjoyed the story, but I need to know what happened to Joel.

There are many obelisks around the world, especially in Egypt. There are two obelisks named Cleopatra's Needle, with one in Central Park in NY City and the other in London.

Yes, Mac's dad and Devin have a lot in common, especially when it comes to not talking things over with others.

Another day I missed. Unfortunately, my retirement income does not allow me to live a sybarite lifestyle.

I'm not sure how I missed this, but I'll add my own two cents. Contrary to what some people believe, freedom does not mean you can do whatever you want. There are some restrictions, such as you can't ignore laws.

I posit that the Secret Author Anthology is turning out to be a huge success.

I hope you are.

You mean I've reeled you in??? Lol. I hope you continue enjoying this story.

Good job, Ron.

OMG, I forgot all about her, but remember her fondly. Great point, George. Kudos. I looked her up online. She was never married but engaged four times, I guess to throw everyone off the track.

I'm not sure of the author either, but he or she is obviously British, judging by the terminology used in the story, and I'm sure everyone who's read this story has figured that out.

I haven't forgotten about what Mac promised his mother, and it's still possible. Remember, even as skinwalkers the boys can each father a son using a surrogate, and they may do it close to the same time so the boys can grow up together. That hasn't been decided yet. As you suggest, Mac could also visit a sperm bank and make a deposit for future use, although withdrawing the deposit would have to be made and utilized within the next 10 or 20 years, since I don't believe the sperm bank would hold his deposit longer than that, say for 100 or 200 years. However, he can still keep his promise to his mom without doing that.

I guess maybe she wouldn't qualify, because the closest I could come to finding out anything about her age was this: aBorn into Reagan-era hunter-gatherer society in Alaska
