Thank you for including me in your list. You can be so bold, no
problem. LOL
There is more than one reason I'm writing and posting the Stevie
stories. One of them is to inspire the good things in kids who might
read them. I think after the first year of summer camp stories have
been posted, which go up to #27, they could be given to boys for fun
reading, and maybe more. I would wait until then, because there will be
some hetero things which will give the series more sexual balance. I've
written up to #34 now, and there are much more parts to come, with
important life lessons, and some fun too.
I would like to know what T-Bone would think of the stories. Can I
include him in one? It will not be a bad character. I don't do that
with people we know. I have already made Chad an important character,
at your suggestion. It was a good idea. I could explore some
interesting issues I couldn't do before which I wanted to do. Thanks.
