Generation Xers Facing Down Their Impending Mid-Life Crisis
Bill W replied to methodwriter85's topic in The Lounge
We all have to face it sooner or later. Just do it with grace and style. -
I'm definitely ready for the warmer weather. Seeing the little egg trick, it also makes me hungry for an omelet. .

High school students pay up to turn off Justin Bieber's music
Bill W replied to hh5's topic in The Lounge
If the kids turn off to Justin, no longer buy his music or go to his concerts, maybe it will have an impact. If he no longer is raking in the big bucks, then maybe he'll get the message to clean up his act. We can only hope. -
Enjoyed the loved story and was glad Dev found someone without leaving the ranch.

The River Ran Backwards
Bill W commented on Aaron Penrose's story chapter in The River Ran Backwards
Your story was beautifully written and very compelling. I could feel for both River and Mathew and empathize with each of them. The only thing I had a problem with was at the end. I found it hard to believe that the police would come looking for him so quickly. The usually won't even consider a missing person report for 24 to 48 hours and it isn't as if he had escaped from a mental institution. He was still an outpatient and not declared dangerous, although there were suspicions. Other than that one minor flaw, I absolutely loved this. -
I'm looking for the last installment to both The Hobbit and The Hunger Games, but Interstellar is on my watch list too.

Interesting story, Cia, and definitely not what I was expecting. I found your characters intriguing and the story line captivating. I enjoyed the hunt and worried that something bad would happen to Miah, but hoped his country background would allow him to survive. I never expected the outcome you came up with though. Thanks for the fun read.

Wonderfully done, Dolores. I thought maybe Frank had brought Rick to the lake to kill him and steal his money, but I didn't see this coming. Well done!
-
Thanks for the feedback, Dolores. I'm glad you enjoy it.

MJ, tnanks for the feedback. Justice, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. Since Nate was satisfied and the bullies were unhappy, then he felt justice was served.

To all the Irish, or those who would like to be Irish on this festive day: Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Hey, TJ. It didn't have to do with Mother Nature, but it still had a connection to nature, be it Nature Boy. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for your help, Dyno, and I'm glad you enjoyed the story.

I enjoyed the story, but was slightly confused. Why was Dougie and David's other friends so protective? If his father had hurt him, this didn't make sense. If others had hurt him, you needed to make that clear so we'd understand the friends' reactions. If David misled them, by telling his friends other lovers had hurt him, not his father, then you needed to make that clear as well. Other than that and some of the overly stiff passages, it was an entertaining read.

It is sad, but some of those building still appeared to be in fairly decent shape. Amazing. I didn't see Centralia, PA though. It was abandoned because of a fire in the coal mines underneath the city that was emitting poisonous gas.

Thanks, Myr. Since I usually take the theme's so literally, I thought I'd do something out of the box this time.

The key here is, don't disregards something just because it is old. That means an old tale, an old structure or an old person. Andy, that was a thoroughly delightful story and I loved the way you wove the fairy tales into it. Well done and I truly enjoyed it.

I enjoyed the story and liked the connection between Stephan and T.J. I also had a little trouble with the spray painters. First of all, didn't they notice the lights on or smoke coming from the chimney. Not too bright for guys as old as T.J. Also, going out in that type of storm for a juvenile prank seemed a bit much. Other than that, I thought it was well written and very enjoyable. Nice job.

A well crafted and imaginative world you have created for your readers. I found it captivating and your characters very believable and endearing. This could be the beginning of a wonderful series.

Some pretty oddball facts in that collection. Thanks for sharing.

Interesting, Addy. Instead of a blossoming relations, we got to witness the demise of one instead, although it was nice to see they'll still remain friends. That's often hard to do after a break up. Good job.

Interesting take on PTSD and its effect on people. I would have liked to know if the results Clay experienced lasted or if they were only temporary. I was also saddened to think that with such promising results the project had been shut down due to Jason's breakdown. Great job and I enjoyed your story.

Wayne, a skillfully crafted story. You brought in multiple cultures and mythology to touch upon important and relevant topics such as environmental pollution and global climate change. A thought provoking look at the world around us and what we're doing to it. .

Thanks for the feedback, Lisa, and I'm glad you enjoyed the story. As I had been told many times while growing up, brains can defeat brawn. In this case, it's exactly what Nate did.

Thanks for the feedback, Aditus, and I'm glad you enjoyed the story. I'm also glad you liked that description. I felt it would adequately describe how the characters looked and felt.
