That was a shot ending. Don't do it again. your problem was having 3 stories on the go at once.... Up until this last part of R toC 27 everything was going well my only concern was that you brought in fantasy money.... Plus I think you got bored!

Well I agree....the death of Carlos Hazday is a great shame... Not least as he was only a few years older than me.. Obviously I didn't actually know the man but I loved his writings and characters..... They were my 'friends'!! I was surprised that he published the continuing story outlines as they were no substitute for his writing.... Indeed I was disappointed... But now I understand why.

Is CH dead or is he just taking a break from writing/posting??

This implies that CH is dead?? Or has he stopped writing/posting??

Does anyone know anything about C James and his background?? Are there any biographical notes?? If he is writing under another pen name..... What is it?? I really enjoyed the longer stories.....they had real excitement and thrill!

Great story.... But what has C James been doing for the last 9 years as no new stories have been published here since 2014?!?!

End of another chapter (4)..... Just too quick!! And another twist to the story. Just can't wait for the next instalment.

Nice Friday morning treat but alas the chapter was only just enough to see one's appetite for much more!!

Great story! Just note that teenagers in the UK do not generally 'fist' one another.... The term used here is 'fist bump'..... The former term is way more sexual (generally means anal fisting) than probably intended.

Sensitivity written sufficient to raise a tear in the reader. Alas the short story was a little too short!! You could have explained how the attackers knew that Mitch was gay.... Also you could have easily extended the part around the attack in self and afterwards. BUT still a great story .... Oh to have such talent! I'm looking forward to you next instalment but hopefully it will be somewhat longer.

Great uplifting and heart warming story! A bit too short as you could have easily filled in Dale's transition.... But bloody great nevertheless.

Is the Premium story linked to CJ?? If so how does the general reader gain access?

Ok.... The overall 'problem' is of your own making...if the story wasn't so captivating, then we wouldn't want you to fill in the gaps!! Yes Flying Circus is a great read... But I'm afraid that I'm hooked and would love to read about the gap in between. You have created such wonderful characters..... I just want more. So please carry on writing and it would be really fantastic if you could fill in the gaps.... Plus provide an update on the Squad and their lives/loves. Thanks Simon

Is it your intention to use Flying Circus to fill in all the taps between Mexico/Florida and the 'present day' (ie Flying Circus 2027) or will you be providing us, your avid readers, with a separate novel/ chapters to fill in the gap??

What story is the follow up to Porcubines??

Apologies for the various typos and auto corrects in my earlier message... I hope you got the gyst?! Multiple useable of the same name for different characters does make life bloody difficult. Also very similar names like Jacob and Joseph... Yes I know that they are different...But it doesn't help... Well not for me. I'd really like to know more about Manny..... Even though you killed him off I'd like to know more about his past. In fact the whole family of characters gets are great (apart from Bill etc)... So is like to hear more all round.

Ok...how I understand how about the dates. Yes I've loved The Boot stories but alas really hate that 'Head and Tails' added each time... These are not required as the body of the text is great without the 'extra support'. The extra text is especially annoying.. When reading the story as a whole rather than by instalments.... So once a story is complete I suggest that you 're-exit to remove the superfluous text. Your writing is great and doesn't need the extra support, especially as you also start each 'chapter's with the last lines from the previous one. I also don't like the hanky/tissue reference... The writing is strong enough on its own and yes it does lead to rising levels of emotion in the reader (ie me). Another pet hate...ok dislike. Is the shop ratio of names...different characters called John in the same text... Very confusing. Despite my criticisms I think the overall story is well told.... And I'd love to read updates on all the characters.

Is chpt 16 the final chapter or is there still one to follow as suggested at the end of chapter 16?? In February 2022 you wrote that the concluding chapter would follow in 6weeks but it's now over 8 months later... It would be great to get the next/last chapter thing up loose ends.

Great story, especially as it reminds me of the occasional night on The Soup Run organised by students at Salford University. We used to make several gallons of hot soup for distribution near Picadily Gardens several nights a week.... My stints as a volunteer were in 1980 to 1984. Your writing is particularly moving but I don't personally like the 'head and toes' you've given each chapter... although that's probably because I'm reading the story over a few days and not as weekly installments. I really hope that you will keep writing despite your recent troubles (from the autobiographical posts)... You clearly have a great talent!!

Flying Circus 5 I was wondering if you were ever going to give us details of CJ becoming Mayor... But I guess that this latest chapter gives us that information!? I, for one, would welcome more!! The full story of runs by for Mayor.... But threaten n I love this story so much I want more all the time...like others have said, we wantt longer chapters and more frequently too...ok I acknowledge that you publish online as soon as you are able but it does make for a frustrating read.... So I'm rereading some of the older stories to fill in. I assume you're hat the election detail given is factual!y true, even if characters are invented. To a non US citizen its facinating. Will you be covering the MidTerm elections next week too? Let's vs the family interactions too and the way that the children are developing... Often quite moving storylines. Keep up the good work

I'm confused. You sign off cdmx as 11 Feb 2022 but earlier in the story reference Russia's invasion of Ukrane, whereas the actual invasion happened on 24th Feb 2022 (although forces were massing on the borders for months)... So was the invasion just your prediction or did you update that chapter??

When might you release the sequel to cdmx?? Something 'flashed up' but I can't find it now.... So is the sequel imminent??

Really enjoyed CDMX but felt slightly cheated by ending, especially as The Cadet goes much further into the future..... it almost felt like you were slightly borrowed with the story..... A great pity as the end of the story felt rushed when I for one wanted more!! Perhaps it would have been better if The Cadet hadn't cover the future. I was stunned that the story was SO up to date with developments in Ukraine. What's with The Earth series?? You have a great writing style and I look forward to new instalments and CJ/Ozzie's future. If you plan to write further Squad stories, I'd like to see a positive future for Patrick and I'd like to read more what's happened to The Elite. All in all great story telling.....gay with some sex, but not porn.... but thrilling with adult themes. Well done Please continue.
