That's why I don't feel good about Luke and Rob's (current) relationship...

Most schools would have only done the bare minimum; Kingswood cares about its young men. Mikey will be well-supported by not only his dormmates and friends, but the faculty and staff as well.

2025-05-17 20:06:24 +0000 UTCI'm glad to hear that, it's definitely not meant to be hot or titillating. It's actually intended to be a deliberate juxtaposition - they're both sex scenes, but one is enjoyable (hopefully) and the other is not (also hopefully!!!!!) It sounds like you're getting exactly what I wanted you to get out of the gross parts. I know it''s not a fun plot point, and it's definitely not one I included lightly. As for Mikey, he's a tough little git. He can definitely get through it, especially as he ends up with support from someone you probably wouldn't expect.

2025-05-17 15:38:16 +0000 UTCThanks for sharing. I've had similar experiences myself, which is where the inspiration for that moment comes from. When you write for your own enjoyment rather than work, there really is very little motivation to write someone else's story. I know other writers who definitely have the same issue. Without personal motivation, it often results in sub-standard work that you don't enjoy.

2025-05-17 15:35:34 +0000 UTCJosh and Mark... hmm... maybe. Not long left to find out!

2025-05-17 15:34:22 +0000 UTCYeah, I'm glad Todd got caught. Sadly no evidence from David this time, but it won't be needed. The transplant isn't pleasant, but it's also the final step (hopefully) in the journey. David's pronouns are here to stay, just like everyone else's.

2025-05-17 15:33:50 +0000 UTCThe rape stuff isn't hot. I know that's not profound, but it's kind of awkward reading something with lots of titillating sex scenes and then wondering if you're meant to be getting something out of the gross parts. When Luke was doing it to Rob it felt gross and awful. What Todd's been doing to Mikey is just wretched and makes my skin crawl. I hope they castrate him. And I hope Mikey doesn't regress too hard. He deserves to catch a break.

2025-05-17 15:29:53 +0000 UTCBTW, about “I’m writing a book I don’t wanna write!” , I guess I had similar experiences. When I was still publishing stories on Nifty (it was looooooooooong time ago... nearly 15 years ago) a reader who liked my story asked me if I could write a story of his own. He gave me some story plots (actually just a start) so I tried to write a story for him. Soon I found it was sooooo difficult, almost impossible. I talked with my editor that time. After some discussion I came to the conclusion. It was so difficult because it's NOT my story. Similarly, a Nifty author, who I'm helping him editing now, recently received a request from a reader for writing a story. The author discussed with me about the story idea and tried to write two chapters, but soon found it so difficult to go on, so I shared my experiences with him too. So I think I understand what Chris is facing here.

And glad that they finally catch Todd! Quote of the chapter, I'd vote on: “Fair point,” Brian nodded. “On the subject of Joe’s donation…” “You’re going to ask him to also give us a sperm donation?” Chris asked, nodding emphatically at Joseph.

2025-05-17 02:47:50 +0000 UTCLooks like Rich got his wish by entering the story in the guise of Mr. Rudd and apprehending Todd in the act. Good work, big guy! Fingers crossed for the marrow transplant. It sounds unpleasant so good work, Joseph! It won’t be pleasant for Josh either. Hope Mark will be brave enough to hold his hand. BTW - Too bad David doesn’t have a recording of Todd to use as evidence! Also - still annoyed by the they/them/their referring to David.
