  1. Quite right, even, bloody well right.
  2. Got it. No unexpected breakups. Bobby will be fine. I think.
  3. Teens I usually just send off to jail and kill them off later, often in an epilogue. Yeah, the tanker truck crashing the cult’s admin building was sweet. It was however a variation of a bad guy’s end requested by @Summerabbacat.
  4. Yeah, there’s a lot of that going around. Oh, wait, mine told me to leave.
  5. Had to put a little scare into you all. Yeah, Bobby will need time to recover, but a full recovery looks promising. I initially wrote this before I started getting nasty to my characters. I’ll have to make sure they get a mention in the epilogue.
  6. Thanks. But don't quit your day job.
  7. Art - With Dad #2 - Winston Stevenson "Hi dad. How was work?" "Stressful. I had to deal with assault charges on two kids today." "Was this about Bobby Lassiter?" "Oh, right. I forgot you know his brother. Yes." "Davey Aranson and Willie LeDeuce?" "Right again." "They going to jail for a long time?" "Well, unfortunately at 14 and 15 they're too young for traditional jail. But they are going away to juvenile hall for a while. At least until they're 18. At th
  8. Thanks. Jeff runs hot and cold for a bit. Sometimes it only takes once.
  9. Congrats, @Jeff Burton!
  10. She may have given me a few story ideas, but the nastiness and demented characters are all me.
  11. That is left up to the reader's imagination in this story. Once incarcerated, Willie and Davey are forgotten. Unfortunately, too true. I took Italian as my language elective in high school, 2 years IIRC, but most of it is gone. Any Italian here was provided by Dr. Google. And yes, the real person behind Lee Wilson is 3/4 Italian, although not according to ancestry dot com. I like to say I have a quart of Scotch in me as well, even though I won't drink the corresponding liquor.

    Chapter 41 S3

    I’m surprised any of them can still stand up after all that. Even younger, I’d have been wiped out way before the Double Shoshone. Fun chapter though!
  13. Yes, Pete and Alex would have been good even without Michael’s heads up. Leon is indeed very protective of Stephen, we’ll see a couple more examples of that in future chapters.

    Chapter 21

    Excellent way to bring them together. Now some unsolicited advice. I would mark this story as complete because it ends one journey. Book 2, when you can get to it, will be another journey the four boys take together. I’m including Danny and Naiche if it wasn’t obvious. This accomplishes at least two things. Your readers who are so inclined can provide reviews, all 5 star I would venture to guess. Secondly, it breaks you free from the pressures of completing a story. Starting a new one is always a rush for me. I’ve done a few “book 2s,” ( not to mention a 3, 4, and 5). It being ”new” can provide a breath of fresh air, so to speak, and make its writing easier. Ignore my rudeness or overstepping if you desire, I won’t be hurt.
  15. Since it isn’t @weinerdog doing the hoping, your wish is my command! Heehee

    Ok, so a flashback before the re-meet. You really know how to prolong the pins and needles “agony.”

    Clearing new hurdles every day. Now that they’ve re-met, another hurdle appears.

    Chapter 18

    OK, I can deal with Thank God I’m A Country Boy. But I’ll never be old MacDonald. Farming, even just hay, sounds like too much manual labor for me. Hell, I struggle just to mow the lawn. When I had a bigger, flatter lawn, I had a riding mower. I’d kill myself on the hills on my lawn now with a rider.
  19. Wildcat for sure. Jaguar, to be specific.
  20. Yeah, I’ve done that a couple times. Bobby will recover. And you know how I treat the bad guys. Although, this actually being the first story, I was pretty tame.
  21. Michael knows how Jeff is and can take whatever is thrown at him Unfortunately for Jeff, most of what he throws bounces right back at him, as you'll soon learn.
  22. Things have been back to normal for a while, it's a little over a week after Sam's birthday before much happened. Let's take a look at what's going on now. Scott Another boring day at school is over, I get on the bus and take my usual seat because Virgil isn't there yet. As he's getting on the bus, Becky Lewis asks me if it's OK if she sits with me. I say OK. Virgil gives me a questioning look. All I can do is shrug my shoulders and wait to see what she wants. "You hang out a lot

    I think you explained it sufficiently in your previous comment. Borrowing a single name from another’s work would be a stretch to call it plagiarism. Think of all the lawsuits the first person to use John Smith in a book could file!
