Chapter 4 (Hunter Douglas, Code Name: Verne) It took a long time to make everything fall into place and build a big cover story for myself. There’s an old sociological concept about focusing attention at what is presented to you in order to divert attention from what is potentially the most dangerous to you. The Allied combined forces during World War II did it prior to the Normandy landings; it is obvious to most people studying history now, and probably to German commanders

Hey Lacey, Yes, you can, but they must be available online. -------------------- Alright Guys, Renee and I are joining forces this year to make the Holiday Contest extra special.

New rules and guidelines will be posted by Renee on the official GA Blog, it is time we all write and have fun together as one Community during this festive season

Well, I am not looking to raise money, but who knows if the winning authors decide that their winnings should go to charity, a member wishes can give a matching donation. $75 or $25 isn't much money, so I am willing to give it to the winner in the form of gift cards.

Welcome to GA and to the greater LGBT community. :D The road ahead of you is going to be challenging, but few things in life are easily achieved. If you feel up to it try to write a story or a poem; it helps to vent out some of your frustrations and express your emotions. As for Companionship, I know what you mean I've been on that hunt for a decade now almost.

I'll give you some nuts and jerky

Very long and probably now "hard" Baguettes

James would you trade a pound of candy for a pound of what you had (or have ) As teens, we all stopped doing the trick or treating stuff, but Halloween was simple as a kids holiday.

4:37 PM if you are on the East Standard

I just realized that not everyone did this during Halloween in the US, so let me explain. When I was a kid, our elementary school would do this after Halloween. We bring in our trick/treat bags of candy and begin to barter for candy that we like. Personally, I liked Kik-Kats and Almond Joys, but I would get a lot of Reese's, skittles, and M&M, so would offer barters for it with some friends. Taught me my first lesson in business negotiation Did anyone else have a Post-Halloween swap, when they were kids?

So what kind of poetry do you enjoy?

Happy Birthday Lacey! May it be

We are only 65 post away from fate

I want to control a capital ship this time around, not just a tie fighter/X-wing. I've played a lot of battlefront throughout the years, it's command and control system have improved a lot. However, I wish they could do more with the canvas of SW universe. As a Sci-Fi fan, I started off on Star Trek, then Babylon 5, and then Star Wars. There's some really neat stuff in the expanded universe novels of Star Wars from Mara Jade's marriage to Luke Skywalker to the adventure of their son Ben Skywalker....Well I won't spoil the novels, but they are good. Problem with game developers, they compromise too much between graphical detail excellence and variety of plot elements.

Happy Early Birthday Lacey !

All fairs in love and war, so if we survive until we're all 143 years-old based on current trends, this would be an anniversary memento.

Russia looks sad and cute, too bad he's a psychopath in the story Here's an old map from just before the SCOTUS decision to allow LGBT marriage map to care about:

Sexual interest is my dictionary definition, but emotional connection is what makes me unique and "gay" instead of merely a homosexual I think there is a difference in terms, "Gay" is synonymous with homosexuality, but it is not identical.

I am plotting There is going to be more

https://www.gayauthors.org/story/w-l/0sand1scbdt/4 I hope sincerely that people, who thought I only dabble in writing are now seeing that I am laying groundwork in an expansive story. I want to write a story that does not just sit in one place and tells a story from one perspective. I want my characters to be smart, but ignorant of certain facts at different times. In this chapter Hunter wakes up from a wild night of drinking and partying, he doesn't know where he wakes up and when he figures it out, a new character is revealed. Kevin Driscoll was actually my first Character in chronological creation. I will tell you guys later in my stories progression how he was born, at the moment only Kitt knows the story of his creative birth. He is my polar opposite, but in many ways, he is the guy that I have always dreamed of being with: fun, sexy, opinionated to a fault in opposition to me, and a snarky little bastard. Beyond that, he is a person of his values and an absolute rock to his beliefs. Kevin is a fun character to write, he is not filtered; he just is. A third character will be joining the story later to complete my trinity, which I will explain later (It's not exactly a Christian Trinity as much as it is a philosophical trinity). I hope you will all enjoy this story and find something in it that inspires you to write your next great story.

Chapter 3 (Hunter Douglas) Ugh, my head is killing me. Note to self, if my brain cells are still there to process this; don’t chase vodka with bourbon. Well, I accomplished my task of getting drunk really quickly to make up for the 40 minutes of absence. I wonder if I am in my bed or in the police drunk tank. It feels too soft to be my bed, and I doubt a police officer would throw a blanket over me. I can feel the outlines of my hoodie and jeans, so I didn’t hook up with a st

Thank you, Well, tonight we hit Chapter 3 and you will meet a new character, who I hope you will enjoy as well.

Ryan Succop, great legs

You don't need a man to satisfy your sexual needs, there are always toys Now emotional needs, I want a partner too. I have been looking for 7 years now and it is difficult to find one. With the issues of STDs and the seedy nature of anonymous sex, I still have my V card at 28 (I have broken in myself and oral on both sides, but haven't done either end in anal).
