Timothy M. Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 So what? There's a friggin time limit to edit your own discussion posts?! That's just insane. I mentioned Greg's brothers and sisters, and the next oldest (at 16) is going to make a very brief appearance in Chapter 28, but I can't go back and add him to the Descriptions in that post? Yep, you have about a week or so, and then it's locked. But simply copy the post and add Jeff, it's also convenient for us not having to go back and find it. 1 Link to comment
ColumbusGuy Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) Hm, I made it easy for you readers by linking it on the front page of the story, along with one for this group, maps of the school, Jay and Mikey's houses, and the Description post. So you guys just click on the chapter link, and don't visit the front anymore? Edited June 26, 2015 by ColumbusGuy Link to comment

So you guys just click on the chapter linnk, and don't visit the front anymore? that's right, I go directly to the chapter from my notifications or the new story list. But now I checked out the list, that's clever for new readers. But just make a new description post and link to that instead. Edited June 25, 2015 by Timothy M. Link to comment

ColumbusGuy Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 I keep forgetting, Chapter 28 is at 2800 words. Moving along, no spoilers. Link to comment
ColumbusGuy Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 Chapter 28 is at 4015 words, starting the second POV. Gary liked it so far...but then, he's my beta. 1 Link to comment

I liked it because it was good... not because I'm your beta... I always tell you if I don't like something... we're a good team, Buddy! It's especially good for me because you do all the work Edited June 28, 2015 by Headstall 3 Link to comment
ColumbusGuy Posted July 1, 2015 Author Share Posted July 1, 2015 Sorry for the delay, Chapter 28 is at 6100 words, and is much closer to being finished. Link to comment
ColumbusGuy Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 Just sent Chapter 28 to Gary, almost 8k words...have to see what he thinks of it...it may post later this evening if he doesn't axe it. 1 Link to comment
ColumbusGuy Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 Chapter 28 is up-wasn't expecting a reply until morning, but G-Man was on the ball. No further axing required, but he says he was tired, so the chopper might make a later visit. 1 Link to comment

Just pride in my friend who keeps turning out these wonderful, touching chapters of young love in the time period I grew up in. Once again, you did good, CG... damn good... xo 1 Link to comment
EagleIsaac Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Really enjoyed the chapter. I'll post a detailed review when I get home - or after I get home from baseball tonight. 1 Link to comment
ColumbusGuy Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 Oohh, baseball! Dang you hit one of my favorite fantasies--the knickers, long socks and just the right amount of muscles...toss in red hair, and a light sheen of sweat on the chest, and I'm in! Link to comment

ColumbusGuy Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 Okay...I'm calmer now...yeah. Dang, in J/M it's mid April, baseball season at the high school! Why can't Jay or Greg be interested in it--or any sport? Maybe Denny will talk Greg into one? In 29, we get to find out Jay's 'secret', and what Denny's car was doing there--okay, the other guys find out since we already know. There is another surprise which I haven't hinted at, but will come to light this chapter also. Any suggestions for a title? Link to comment

ColumbusGuy Posted July 4, 2015 Author Share Posted July 4, 2015 (edited) Drat, while 22 makes it legal, it just wouldn't feel right--okay, it would feel awesome--but the unease of the age difference would ruin it rather quickly for me. Thirty five years is a bit much. Such great suggestions for a title...now I'm gonna have a tough choice...Quality Time might have its chance, but Answers...dang that is so tempting! Just started the chapter, only three sentences in, about 50 words, and I'm beset with doubts that it's already sounding too saccharine. OH--POV for this first part is our favorite farm boy, Jay.

It'll be nice to have Jay's POV again. Decide on the title when you're farther along, Buddy... 1 Link to comment
