I first heard this on the radio show, then this morning, the local Fox station aired it. Back in the 1930's into the 1950's, this guy served four terms as mayor in Fort Wayne, IN. The city is naming a new building after this guy and it's stirring up things. People are objecting saying that it will make Fort Wayne the butt of jokes. The name, Harry Baals.

Chapter 43 is now posted. Don't forget your tissue.

After a delay, due to illness, Chapter 61 has been posted.

You can expect to see chapter 43 posting the weekend of January 22nd. It's now in beta and would be pushing it to have it ready any sooner.

I too, keep a copy of the stories that I like and re-read from time to time. Gives me something to do when I go to visit family and friends and everyone is at work. You should see my file folder for Jamie alone. I have one flash drive dedicated to him alone.

Some authors do their own editing and do okay with it. Then there's others who are so bad, I've quit reading the story.

I only warn people as some don't mind it, while others may not like it. Most will still read it.

Kyle has been a long time Hosted Author at Gay Authors and is one of the reasons Myr got interested in hosting stories. It is mainly because of the adult/youth scenes that the story doesn't appear publicly. Now with GA Stories, that may be changing. It will be posted with a strong warning. I've told people that if they can get past the adult/youth sections, they are in for a good story. When I know it's posted, I certainly post a link to it.

UPDATE: Kyle has updated the first 25 chapters and will be sending chapter 26 to Myr some time next week for posting at Gay Authors.

Chapter 60 has been posted.

Early in part 2 of book 2 we are given a clue that there is another Agramon. Jamie finds that hidden file about Nic. As he's about to close it, he see's some information about another. It's toward the end of his first meeting with Giovanni, that he picks up on something from him. Later on, he gets a sample of Giovanni's blood and later gives it Stephan to be analyzed, which confirms who he is.

How Jonathan came into being, we may never know unless it comes in a future chapter. Of course, the identity of the Oracle was kept secret to protect him. Not even Hippolito knew it and imagine his surprise that there is now two Red and Blacks that are now the head of a House. I'm thinking more in the lines of partnerships formed by Icarians. In our society, we have couples who have been together for years and consider themselves partners. Some places now allow it legally. Remember, Jamie includes a lot of different issues in today's society into this story. I think this was engineered into them, besides what was already there. We know from the history lessons we've had that Agramos loved de Valen, but never acted upon it. We know that Edmond Croal created Jamie and Charlie, so whoever created Niklas von Agramon, also created Giovanni and Jamie is the only one who knows Giovanni really is. No one knows who sent him to the school to eventually meet up with Jamie.

The Red and Black that was in Edmond Croal's office that day was not Charles. Several minutes after the hov left Villa Mare Vista, and was well out of sight, was destroyed. We also changed time for a short period to find Charles signing the order, then switched back.

One of the things I've wondered about is, when did Jamie and Charles meet exactly. To my knowledge, they haven't met yet in the story and can only assume they will be meeting soon. We do know that Charles has known about Jamie for a very long time, but didn't know about Charlie. We do know Charles had a mate at one point, but I think the big questions is, were they a mating pair? If they weren't, that could explain why he doesn't appear to suffer disunion. The rose bush in his garden was set up as memorial to his partner. What makes me think of this comes from one of the chapters after Christophe's death where Jamie finds out from one of the Trio that he loved Christophe and he refused to mate due to being in the chair. Jonathan could be Charles brother biologically, or in an adopted from. Jonathan could also be from the experimentation that was done on vision which failed, but had an unusual side effect in which he was still able to see, just differently from everyone else. We've seen this demonstrated in Book 1 during Nic's birthday celebration. Perhaps Gold Glass was trying to enhance the Red and Blacks and Jonathan was the end result.
