Life's curves I don't know, I get so confused sometimes. I listen to people talk, read stories (fiction, i know) and like all stories there's usually a grain of truth in them. They do came from someone's experiences. Like it's been said, there's nothing new under the sun. Years ago I admitted to a friend that being gay scared me not because of what other people thought, since I had been through so much already by the age of 27 to worry with opinions not my own. It scared me because I never saw any older gay couples and I didn't want to die alone. I think the fear of dying alone made me reach out through the internet to feel close to more people since I was limited at home. Through all the chemo, radiation, and other crap I had to deal with, I was always scared of dying alone. I mean I knew my parents would always be there for me, but I mean that someone, that special someone. Yet the more I learn about life, the more I feel alone. I don't even know why I'm writing this. I'm not in remission yet, but I should be soon. So, I guess I'm getting better. There's still the bone marrow transplant donor to find and do. But, things are looking better again. Yet, I also see now that I missed out on so much as a teenager. I think I would trade my life today to have had a normal life as a teenager. Making all the mistakes and finding the new experiences. I guess I'm making a fool of myself. Tonight I set up most of the night reading a long story on nifty and envied the characters, even the sad ones. At least they got to experience life. I guess after so many years of battling my battles, I'm starting to become a little bitter over it. I do treasure my online friends, even some of the old guys that pretended to be teens before they either literally died from old age or disappeared. Life isn't always fair, in fact, it rarely is. But, I have to have the hope and belief that if you pour yourself into life, in the long run, it's all worth it. I am however real enough to know that's not always true. And it saddens me to see people have to deal with the worst life can throw at you. I wish the world wasn't like that. And like I said earlier, I dunno why I'm writing this, but here it is, raw, unedited me. Please, if you feel you can't take anymore, it will get better. There's nothing life can throw at us that we can't over come or find a way around it, it will get better. Nothing last forever, including the bad times, it will get better. Reach out to someone, talk to someone, share your feelings, it will get better. Never ever give up, it will get better. There are organizations that are there to help us through the bad times, it will get better. The Trevor Project is just one of those, reach out to them, support their work, it will get better. The Trevor Project

Hi, I am trying to find the name of a story I read a long time ago that I can't seem to find now. It was about 2 boys that evolve their relationship into more than friendship. One of the boys has a learning disability, but is a math genius. They both get into computer programming and they end up making a company for computer chips and programs. That is where the updates stopped. I believe the story took place in Texas, maybe San Antonio. It was a really special story for me, and I would like to read it again. Thanks for all your help!

So this seems a little bit self-serving... I have began to post my first made-for-GA story on the site and thought people might like to talk about it. Who knows. Bad Stereotypes is about a young man named Bay, who after having his friends and family assume that just because he's come out of the closet he wants to be camp now, runs away to the city on the sea where his Godfather owns a rock and metal bar and club. The story is told is short chapters with numerous flashbacks of Bay's past and history, which help to explain why an out gay guy "hates queers". How Bay gets from his repressed but out point of view to being happy involves a cast of interesting work-mates and one very special man. Four chapters currently available with a new one posted each day. Current length is 13k, and i would project anywhere between 20 and 30k when it's finished. Also, quite randomly, disability themed undertones. Though i'm not quite sure why that is. so, let me know what you think. and yes, some of the chapters are very short. i'm sorry.

Hello folks. Setting up this thread to be the discussion page for my newest series: Fallen. It is meant to be a true horror series with all the blood and gore to go along with it. I'm hoping to make it a three book series. Each book will be around 100k in length and and cover a length of time of several decades. As with any long series I've written there is going to be a mountain high list of characters. If anyone has an interest in my writing up an index please let me know and I will get to work on it right away. As people who've read my works before know there will be subplots within the main plot. They also know that my main character go through a bit of hell in order to be with the guy they love most. The same is true for this series. In this series the main character, Aaron starts off as a traumatized child. Kidnapped as an infant he witnessed something so horrifying that it left him unable to interact with the outside world. As he grows older showing no sign of improvement his grandmother fears she will have to institutionalize him. Only by random chance he meets someone who knows more about him then he does himself. Jon, a student at a special school for the gifted, knows Aaron has a secret and is dying to find out what it is. He has a secret of his own as well and is waiting for the perfect time to share it. So far I have the final drafts of the first 32 chapters all written up so I hope to post 2 chapters a week so they'll be coming out pretty fast. If you like the series or have any suggestions please feel free to write on the thread and tell me what you think. I promise I don't bit. It's going to be a pretty long one so there should be plenty to discuss. Link to the first book is below. https://www.gayauthors.org/story/JMH/thetalentsofthefallen Take care and enjoy JMH
