Maxieplus got a reaction from JohnnyC in Ayden's Eyes
Thank you Johnny, he is a sweetie and so is Birdy. I want to adopt them both, of course with my husbands Den and Evan. lolol Its a crazy story coming from a crazy imagination and there plenty more to come. If you look up Golden beach Victoria you will see the area I'm writing about. Although it exists I see nothing but a ghost town, is that how it really looks to us mere humans? lololol
Thank you again
Your mate Mr Plus.

Maxieplus got a reaction from JCa in Never Give Up - Maxwell Dowling
While travelling around Australia I didn't have internet and I missed reading my online stories. I thought I would have a go at writing one myself, it just flowed and its my first attempt at writing. I had no idea I had written so much, but I did write about subjects I loved to read. I hope to come back to it after I finish my current write. Thank you for hosting it Roland

Received an email late last night from Maxieplus. Somehow he had mistakenly included chapters 14 and 15 in the file that was sent.
The story actually ends at chapter 13. The story site has been reworked to that end.

Kyle,
Thanks for the great feedback. I totally get what you're saying. Thanks, too, for the high marks. I get what you are saying about the varied perceptions, but honestly, you'd have to be totally blind to not see Halloween in my story, so I think something else was a foot with a couple of readers. Oh well, this writing thing is so subjective, and nobody HAS to like what we do, right?

Maxieplus reacted to Rilbur in What I Do
I am a programmer. I develop software for a living. It's one of the reasons I often don't write as much as I'd like, or as much as I used to. I tend to either be gainfully employed, with a deadline to meet and limited time to spend, or out of a job, depressed as I watch the money trickle out of my bank account faster than I can fill it back up with odds and ends of work.
But sometimes, something fun pops up.
I develop out of a building run by a company called Bitwise, 'the mothership of technological innovation'. They recently had the grand-opening celebration of their new building, and this video was unveiled there. And I wanted to share it with everyone. Because it is awesome.

Enjoy. The mothership has landed.

So, like Zergrinch, I took notes as I finished reading. Not going to try and say which I think is best, that's what the voting is for. Here's how I've tallied the stories:
Story #1 - Having followed this story, since it was introduced last Halloween, and continues as a current story, it was a nice addition to the ongoing saga.
Story #2 - The story did not appear to contain an outright "Halloween" theme, until you got towards the end. Then it lept out and smacked you. This is another Halloween story that needs to be continued, either now or next year.
Story #3 - This was another story that did not seem to embody the Halloween theme as well as some others. Regardless, the story drew me in. The ending of this story almost demanded a second installment. It is easily among my favorites.
Story #4 - The Halloween theme on this one was spotty. Regardless, it kept my interest because I really wanted to know what was up with the mother and the new family. It wasn't until towards the end, that I had it figured out. Gomez and Morticia have nothing on these folks!
Story #5 - At the risk of having the author dislike me... the Halloween theme was only a sidetrack to the overall theme of the story. Not that I dislike stories with a moral imperative, mind you. I think I just wasn't expecting this one.
Story #6 - All Hallows Eve, right from the gate and down to the end. Another favorite from this years crop.
Story #7 - Halloween themes can encompass many different things. This one was just not my cup of tea. A really overworked theme, lately.
Story #8 - Another story that grabbed the theme and ran with it. The diversion scenes, rather than being titillating were quite humorous, which only added to the overall tension. Well done!
Story #9 - This was another story that started off strong and finished strong. Pure Halloween, in my opinion. I liked this story very much, and I had a hard time with not putting it in the class of my favorites this year.
Story #10 - I think, if we are honest, everybody likes a well written murder mystery. Halloween themed all the way through, which made it even more thrilling. Among my favorites.
Story #11 - This is one I want to see a next part. It begs the question which was asked at the start and possibly hinted at the answer in the end. Heartache and/or heartbreak. Have a box of tissues handy.
Story #12 - Another shot for All Hallows Eve, from start to finish. Good overall story, but I just couldn't connect well with the characters.

I read this and did a double take - I literally thought you were talking about YOU not making it - not your story! Glad to know you are still with us. Take care.
