    Your name is Mark

    LOL yeah!  Things always seem to go wrong when there's a Mark character messing up with FMG potions or artifacts.  😀

    Good story! I don't mind the incest thing, since I don't have a sister and never imagine myself as the character in such cases.  But I really wanna know what happens next.

    Please continue.

    Very nice and sweet! Kind of a dream scenario for me (and I'm sure lots of others). 

    Thanks for writing.

    Thanks for the thanks!  ;D

    I feel guilty sometimes, because I think I should post more comments. I lurk way too much, and it's easy to forget how important comments are to an author. It's just that
    I feel awkward making small posts such as "Very nice! Continue please…", so in the end, I sometimes just let others comment.

    Anyway JimmyDimples, this is a good reminder that sometimes the smallest of comments on a story, is enough to raise an author's self-esteem, and help him continue to write and enrich our community.  Thank you.

    I have 2 suggestions for you:

    1. Try using paragraphs.
    2. Use quotes on the dialogs.

    cheers

    I hadn't noticed any. ???

    Ok, last time I checked it was gone.  Maybe it will come back, who knows…

    Anyways, I'm not sure if it was google or ebay ads, because it was in the middle of both.  And it wasn't a text add, but a rather large picture of a muscular guy. yuck!  😛

    I don't know much about the business. I can only MY personal impression on FBB nowadays, and my opinion is STEROIDS is pretty much ruining female bodybuilding. 

    If you look at the 80's and early 90's women,  and today's competitors, you not only see a difference in muscle size, but also a big difference in the femininity department. It is MY OPINION, that female bodybuilder standards have surpassed the normal human female capacity to gain muscle, forcing todays women to an unhealthy and prolonged usage of anabolic steroids, giving them an eventual masculine and even freakish look. 

    As much as I would love it to be possible for women to grow 20" biceps and 30" guads without losing their feminine aspects and beauty, it is just not possible with todays science. And if I, an avid female muscle lover, can't stomach the clear mutilation that some of these women have wrecked upon their bodies, can you imagine what the "normal" public feels like?

    I can understand how some of the women today could look upon Cory Everson or some of the other older bodybuilders as a role-model.  But can you think teenagers nowadays would look at todays top contenders, with horrible hair and skin, masculine faces and in some case even with male pattern baldness…and still see them as a role-model?

    The only way to avoid piracy, is to make your book cheap and accessible.

    There is no way to avoid piracy by means of software control or media.  There is simply NO BOOK you can't download online through the internet (OCR's work miracles nowadays).

    So my suggestion…

    Put your books in both PDF and LIT, and sell it cheap (US$ 5.00 or less) though your own site via Paypal. Lots of independent authors do it. 

    If you think your books tends to a more generic public (instead of a FMG one), you might try some of the independent online book websites out there.

    Just my 2 cents;

    I read Bee Society I.  It really does give us some clue about what happened in New Flavor III.  It's pretty grim if you ask me.  Apparently things didn't go very well.  :/

    I'm curious to see what direction you're going with.  This Bee Society sounds a little depressing for men.  After all…nem todo mundo tem vocação para corno!  😛

    I hope we can see more of Brad too.  He's one cool character.  I kind of prefer to read about strong men chars (strong in personality and character) then wimpy ones like Jake.  But I figure there's room for all types of both men and women in this universe. 

    Again, you're doing great work, and I'm really anxious for more!

    Manda brasa!
