What? Another 2 story series? Yes, that's what's on tap for this month's CSR feature too! Of course, instead of two short stories, we're featuring a prompt and a novella-length story written by BHopper2. This contemporary coming of age story is rife with feels, but also contains some graphic content (no sex) so please make sure you check out the tags and the story description. It's quite popular already, so I'm hoping we'll have a great Discussion day on the last Monday of the month. And hopefully lots of reviews posted on the stories too! 

 

A New Life and a New Home

Length: 2,254

 

Description: Sixteen-year-old Brayon came out to his Progressive parents, but they did the one thing he didn't expect. They disowned him and kicked him out. This is his story. 

 

A Reader Said:  This had me hooked! There's a style here of 'just the facts, ma'am' that's balanced and nuanced. I was drawn right in, like I was watching it happen and not reading about it at all.  Read it for yourself, and you won't regret it. ~ AC Benus

 

 

My Son

Length: 32,530

 

Description: Adam Smith is a successful businessman, who recently came home to Tampa, Fl. Retired at age 38, living in a newly constructed house, he feels like he's set for a new chapter in his life, with plans to set up a Micro-Brewery.

 

A Reader Said: An interesting plot, well-drawn characters, and realistic dialogue take us through the joys and fears of meeting your child as a teen.  ~ JeffreyL

 

Don't forget to come back on the Discussion Day, Monday July 30th, to share your thoughts!!

Been there, read that, loved em.  Hope I can come discuss them, but I don't know what will happen tomorrow, let alone 30 days from now!

I feel honored to have been chosen for this month's CSR. I hope everyone enjoys my stories, and see you later this month for the discussion.

Book 3 is being plotted now.

As a surprise to the fans on My Son, and because it was made this month's CSR feature, I'm writing a 1 chapter short for the Tampa Chronicles. It will introduce a new character.
