Forums

This is the place to post News Items and Personal Vews of interest to the entire LGBT community.

Here's the spot where you can carry a dialogue with Mike... AwesomeDude's creator and operator. Questions, comments and constructive criticism are welcome.

Sometimes our AwesomeDude Authors like to give their readers a 'heads up' when they are about to serialize a new story. This is the place that will happen.

Note: This is not a discussion forum and may only be posted to by AwesomeDude Authors. Story discussions will still be held in the Readers Rule Forum.

Your chance to comment on online stories available at AwesomeDude or othere sites. Kudos and constructive criticism welcome. You can also recommend or comment on stories in print versions.

Like the Romans of old, our readers range far and wide, on the WWW and in books, and this is where they talk about the stories (completed or not) they've just discovered whilst away from AwesomeDude. Not limited to stories involving sexual orientation, or those being recommended for the BONN list, even an excellent murder mystery, or superb cookbook should be mentioned.

A forum to alert AD readers to excellent but unfinished from Nifty and the net. The intent would be that readers would sent notes to authors to encourage them to continue their good work and finish the stories. vwl is your Moderator

Welcome to the corner of AwesomeDude Forums reserved for reviews of LGBT fiction, non-fiction or poetry books in print. Feel free to review your favorite books hard cover or paperback here.

The Poetry Corner is a place for poets and their fans to post and have fun. Fans: make sure to comment on the many poems you see here.

This is where we get down to the nuts and bolts of writing.
We want this to be a lively discussion of the creative writing process as well as a place to share opinions, tips and suggestions. In keeping with the purpose of AwesomeDude, it will be a positive place where experienced authors can share with newer writers and the newer folks can bring fresh perspective to the discussion.

This is a meeting place for the unsung heroes of fiction, the editors who play such an important part in producing the stories you read here at AwesomeDude. A real fiction editor is much more than a proofreader and must be able to work with an author to bring out the best in his story. I hope you will use this space to share the 'tricks of your trade' with your peers and those who might be interested.

In ancient times the Musaeum, the Greek Μουσείον was the home of music and poetry, the temple of the muses -a museum.
Rather than simply a museum in the sense that has developed since the Renaissance, it was an institution that brought together some of the best scholars of the Hellenistic world under the protection of the Muses. It also had rooms devoted to study and information - a Library.
Here you will find all kinds of resources and references.
