That would be an excellent story to do on the next round Robin (If everyone else agrees to it lol) I think it'd be so cool!

Fun :) That would be a good back-to-school September story IMO. (And we could all write from experience.)

Well, if it does turn into a story prompt that would be way cool for me. Thanks for considering it!
WTF, cigarette smoke in my eyes, ashes on my key board, tequila getting low, looks like another fab weekend. And now JUST another self loathing moment of self promotion, and if I offend any one, well I didnt mean too for I am Jane Brooke a 22 year old demon demon British bi-sexual writer of savage erotica, LGBT/LESBIAN/FEMALE BI SEXUAL my string point you can see some of my 8 Amazon books on my page here, and my readers say to me my work is banal, savage, ultra sexual, poignant, porn, beautiful and like being shot in the head with a bullet, which I appreciate. Everything I write is my 2014 MY GENERATION HARD CORE REAL,exposing WTF is going on with the youth, sex, social media, no Gender bias, music, sub cultures, etc, so you know, LETS keep it real, I gotta go, meeting this beautiful Lesbian I met in CHelsea the other night, dinner, drinks, and hope some kisses later. Cheers Jane from London

Yup...the world needs more YA LGBT books...even two of my books Missing in Somerville and The Game Master of Somerville are Ya mystery books with a bisexual teenage male lead...it's great to be part of a group sharing the same interests ^^

Thanks for that!...already giving out free review copies of it in this group
https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
...no takers yet...but yeah, true about more bi main characters in YA...there are a whole lot of people on the LGBTQ+ spectrum that need to be represented in YA books, as well as others
Well, I don't do free-to-review because I don't want to promise a review. I only put up my 4 and 5 star books. But I hope you get some takers. We're getting a much better variety lately in YA (flamboyant, asexual, poly, etc.) but still the non-L non-G part of LGBTQIAP is an area that needs more books.
And we just hit
OK, I have no idea where that comes from, but apparently that number isn't super popular. Now next milestone when we hit 3000 I expect to find balloons and streamers.
Welcome to all the new members. :)
Let us prepare the party in the mean time! Congrats on hitting #2900! :D
We hit a milestone this week - 3000 group members. Thanks everyone for joining us and helping keep this group an interesting, useful and fun place to come. You are all amazing :)
Still no balloons and streamers images for 3,000 but it's a big number none the less... :)

Thanks - I'm so embarrassed, with moving my mom to the new nursing home and DRitC story deadlines and taxes - I was a week late even looking at new members. And here we are over the mark. :D I guess I won't throw a party but I'm delighted that many people find the group worth joining.
3100 members now, and we continue to grow. Thanks to everyone who takes time out to spend time on this group.And because I can't find a picture of "3100" here's a cute 1950's Chevy "3100" pick-up :)

that's my dream car Kaje ever since i saw Sam Neil drove a red one in one of his TV shows way way back!
I love old pick-ups. Especially early 1950's Fords.
Yay - we continue to grow. Thanks to all the new members - I hope you find good things here.
