5. Loved it!
I'm a slow reader so it took me a bit. I really liked it though. I had the same cousin I think. Well, I found out later she wasn't really my cousin, darnit! :P

Excellent!

:thumbsup:

8. It's sort of kind of based on a half truth....
But I think we all had cousins like that somewhere along the line...

6. Very poignant
I love the "voice" you've chosen for this piece. It really captures something about the mysterious transom between bewilderment of and acceptance by the opposite sex. It's very beautiful and uncontrived.

10. Kick, just because

Read this story. It's by a DUer, and it's really good.

It's easy to forget how spiritually nourishing fiction can be. It can clear out our minds and make things seem better.

Check this story out.

12. Kick
Check this story out.

It is written in the tradition of the best regarded authors of the eighties and early nineties.


We need to support good art.
