I have only just, (today), noticed where Timmy put the link to my site on this site!
So thanks Timmy!! Smile

Oh, and if anyone likes really well-written stories, and is getting bored waiting for their fav author to post a new chapter.... (LOL), try looking to the left and click on the box marked 'Home'. Once on the site you'll see a list of authors. (Yes the Radio Rancher is there too; - I've been friends with him longer than he's been posting here!)
Do please check out Rocco Paperiello's story 'Two Boys' I'm sure you'll enjoy it. And if you do, please tell him. Thanks.

Mike

The art of a good link is for it to come from a page that is not itself a whole slew of links, and that is directly relevant to the linked site Smile

I hope it delivers visitors. But, even if it does not, it will add "googleness" to your site.

Rocco Paperiello's story, 'Two Boys', was only partially completed when I discovered it on Nifty. Oh my god, it instantly became my favorite internet story. So, after reading the last posted chapter I waited very impatiently for updates... that seemed interminably slow in appearing. But, magic of magic, I discovered the Crackerwriter's Site and Rocco's story there. And yay... new chapters.

*kisses Crackerwriter's feet*

Please put it on your 'to read' list. You won't be disappointed.

What a coincidence... I just "discovered" your site today, following Timmy's link Smile
To me the fact that he described it as having A very similar ethos to this site, but different writers sounded very promising - and indeed it seems well worth the praise.

Jon, Rocco's stories can be found at Crackers Den, http://crackerwriter.us

I very much agree with you Paul, "Two Boys" became one of my all-time favorites by the time it was finished. His other stories are equally as good. He has indicated to me that he will have something new for us after summer.
