Happy Birthday Patrick! gratuitous emoticons: :ranger:

I think that gay heroes are more introspective generally because of this. Sometimes readers hunger for something of a more grandiose and fantastical scale.

I share your tastes and it's something I'm doing with my own story, Underworld, but I wouldn't reccomend it to you unless you're wiling to wait another millenium for an update. As far as epics go, there are few gay ones outside the sci-fi/fantasy realm, so I don't know if that's your taste, but they're there. If so, try Comicality's Gone From Daylight or even the Sci-Fi section of Nifty (few are willing to dig through those archives anymore, but they can yield gold).

Okay, a friend just emailed me this link: http://www.lighttounite.com/ Just click anywhere to light a candle and $1 will be donated to AIDS research. I don't know the specifics, but I light one and it was effortless, no signing up or anything. For that reason I'm a bit wary of its effectiveness, but it couldn't hurt, right?

Like any good gay boy, I'm an avid Sondheim fan. Sweeney Todd and Pacific Overtures being my favorites.

I appreciate the dramatic font change. Anyway, I flatter myself with the title of artist, I'm honing my skills with design and photgraphy classes on saturdays and the studio art classes at school. I've also been working on what I can do digitally with my photos, but I'm nowhere near proficient yet. I also frequent the Met religiously.

Marvalous, champagne! It never goes exactly the way we mean to, but it happens which is the important part. You've certainly lucked out in terms of mothers, I'm glad it went well.

I love your blog, I just love reading it so much.

It took three attempts to tell friends whom I knew would be okay with it. There were perfect times to do it, and they were great about it in the end, even though I pasted it onto the end of an unrelated sentence, "wow, that does sound like a good book I'm gay." Anyway, I've assumed my parents know, and I know they do, and I also know they're fine with it, but the words will still get caught in your throat at first I guarantee it. Good Luck.

My name is Lance, but I prefer Reaper. I'm a 15 year old high school sophomore. I'm from/in NYC and am actually sort of secretive (which is interesting because I'm a terrible liar). I rarely ever open up to people, and even then without any sort of emotion. It irritates my friends, though they rarely say so to my face, but they're still around so I guess I'm doing something right. Anyway, I've always loved art and frequent the Met religiously. Being gay was one of the few things I was sure of about myself for years, so it kind of got pushed down to the bottom of my list of indentity crises. It also means that I ever gave much thought to not having a bf until quite recently. I'm out to a group of friends, and anyone who doesn't know I assume has guessed. Where I am now is satisfying. I take weekend courses at FIT (Fashion Institute of Technology) in Menswear Design and Photography, both of which I am enjoying immensely. As for other pursuits in my life, they include writing and an interest in World History. Quite an array, but I'm sure I'll settle on something. My friend and myself want to emulate the club kids and and other avante garde movements, in both NYC and London. So I am inspired by mod, punk, glam, and any of those '60s-'80s styles. I've become more and more extroverted as of late. Holding the hands of my senior friends through the college app process had made me lend more thought to my future. I feel like starting a Warhol-meets-Wonka Factory in the Terminal Warehouse building might be bit out of reach. One of my favorite activites since meeting my psychotic Improv friend is public weirdnes. My favorite venue for this is the elevator at Bergdorf Goodman, where we talk into our shoes and do yoga. We've gotten some great looks and we have more ideas every day. I suppose there are other more relevant things I can tell you. I drink and shop way too much. I have a lot of family in Argentina and I visit them frequently with my parents. I love the movies Velvet Golmine, Party Monster, The Legend of Leigh Bowery, Silence of the Lambs, and everything by Almod

A cult? Anyway, I can relate to the inter-family political argument. My dad is democrat, his father is republican and has practically disowned him, and my mother is liberal as hell but my dad always to play devil's advocate anyway. Thanksgiving is a real treat, as you can imagine.

If you want to make it in journal form, why not start a fictional blog on blogspot or something? It'll be a creative template on which to work.

I'm a fan of ranting and drama and corny humor I am making all of my posts one continuous sentence today that borders on incoherent blah.

happy Birthday, in a K-Hole, can;t talk much, here;s some emoticons blah. :nuke: :nuke: :king: :ranger: :pickaxe: Reaperwords

I swear, Green, you could sell tickets to this drama. I rank your blog up there with Days of our Lives.

There are two new parts of what wil ultimitely be a four part chapter of Savage Moon, It is available at the Comicality Library

Should I make the obvious "eat me" joke or not? I'll opt out, I'm sure it will be done. However, yet another movie about my favorite cinematic serial killer of all time is something to get excited about.

Your "friend" sounds like quite a charming individual. I'm an atheist, but I'd never be obnoxious about it. Perhpas being gay just teaches you to live and let live, but I guess not in his case. Don't let it get you down, not when there's a new chapter of TOU with which to distract yourself.

Listen carefully: you are NOT emo. And your life isn't boring either, if you haven't got novella-worthy problems, then be grateful and make some up to post on NIfty in your next epic. PS, I find it adorable that he works at Subway, I'm a sucker for a man in uniform. Like my 24 hour crush on this hot salesguy at Lucky Brand.

Sounds like a Karloff movie, "Attack of the Walking Penises!" Lock up your daughters!

I remember that episode and the end sequence was beautiful. It's definitely one of those songs.

Run! As far away as you can, get on the next bus! hurry!

I'm more traditional, proactiv all the way. Mostly out of amusement at their infomercials that feature P Diddy talking about..well.. anything. lately my skin's been behaving quite well for unfathomable yet quite fortunate reasons, save for one "uninvited guest" who shall meet a bitter end tomorrow morning, I promise you. read my blog, please.

I used to write off country, being the loathsome east coaster I am, but after I saw "O Brother Where Art Thou" I developed an unexpected appreciation for the genre.

I just love goodbyes, they have all the drama and cheerfulness of hellos without the apprehension of first impressions, besides, last impressions are so much more final. As a result, I get caught up in them, just because it's fun.
