I was chatting with one of 'my' authors last night. He said. "I no longer receive emails when I have a new story posted. Do you think the kids today read them?"

I postulated. I have postulated before and I'll do it again! Postulation is good for the soul.

My thought was that even in the few years since the site started, it has become easier to be young and gay. I wondered if stories that show love and romance were less needed today. I was thinking that just maybe in at least the English speaking world, homosexuality was not such a big deal any more.

I'd love to know what you think. And, if you are a reader of stories, I'd like to remind you that authors get 'paid' in compliments and they love feedback
