I have come to a story that hits way to close to home for me. I cannot even continue tonight.
An author has wrote something that has left me incapacitated for the moment. I always tell smith that he invokes emotion, and that is a mark of a good writer. This one has actually put me down. I am writing this with a tear stained face, to tell you how much this has affected me. to the author, you have my admiration. Even though for me it was very painful.
Many thanks to all the authors, now I am to spent emotionally to read any further tonight.
Love to all,
Kevin

Kevy, quite obviously you were touched by what you read... a response to not only what was originally written, but several personal life experiences that have brought you to where you now are... unable to move on further because you have been wiped out emotionally.....
Hooray for the writer... he/she has done what they perhaps designed the story to do... reach you... but rather, I say Hooray for Kevin, who allowed himself to emotionally go to the point of being broken... to the place where his heart and emotion hurt... or were so involved that it took all your strength away... leaving you once more so totally vulnerable so as to be able to look deeply into your life.. your very existence.. and change who and what you are.
I respect writers for being able to write to touch our lives. I respect readers who allow those stories to change their lives... even more.
I wish I could hold you as you are in tears... to allow you to safely feel every thing you need to...even more, I wish I knew you better.
Hugs, Smiles, Warmth and Peace
BamBam:-)
Celebrate your life... embrace your love... Become intimate with your place in forever !!!

I bet each of us that have read them all (I have a few to go) have a top three. Maybe we could all share that?
For me, last night, it was the "Longest Day". But I will be glad to share my top three after I have read them all.
What are yours?
Kevin
P.S. To the author of story eight, well done. You touched me deeply (also their was several things in the story that seemed like it was written for me ... very strange)

Well, My Favorites were Summer Fire and Letters in the Sand. Both were touching and emotional and well written. I'm still working through a lot of the other stories and trying to get a fix on them. But, well, you know, time and tide and the same old story, the hunt for love and glory, and writing my own stuff. Hopefully I'll get through them all soon.
It's not the wolf you see you should fear, but all the ones he howls with. Don't be afraid of the song, but don't piss off the choir.

i'm not sure either, but they'd be praised soon enough, anyway.  i can't wait to email a few of the authors.
my favorites were, also, 'summerfire' and 'letters in the sand.' the former was the first i read, because the title caught my eye.
great work and excellent job to both the authors. i also liked 'the longest day.' it took me a bit to read through it, and i ended up reading it twice, and it left me feeling melancholy, but also .. clean. it's hard to explain.

Maybe if everyone says their favorite more of the storys will get read. who knows:-) but my favorites were 1) Coming of Age,2)Summer Fire, 3)Letters in the Sand. i have read them all and they are all very very good but these three were the ones i could relate to the most;-)

Each cathches a different mood. Soe are descriptive, some longing, some erotic, some simple jerkoff material. But each deserves a vote to be cast

Longest Day put me in a torn funk for a while. I'm not sure it has a peer, as it's length/brevity put it alone between a novelette and a short. So much packed into such a small package. It did that hurt/pain/pleasure/joy mixture to near perfection.
It and "Some Day Out Of The Blue" are among the stories I most admire.
