JamesSavik Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 The last piece of my 70s Trilogy posted here tonight. I suggest that it be read in order. It makes more sense that way. That 70s Trilogy the Place in Between Getting to The Happily Ever After Nightfall <<new I hope that those of us of a certain age enjoy it. But anyone who ever had a heartthey wouldn't turn around and break itand anyone who ever played a partThey wouldn't turn around and hate it -Lou Reed Quote Link to comment
FreeThinker Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 I've just finished "The Place In Between" and it's one of the best stories I've ever read. The detail makes it so realistic. I can hear the bugs chirping and feel the heat of the Saturday afternoon. It brings back the memories of when I first came out and my first forays into the gay world. The boys come off as real and you care for them. This is a masterful story. I urge everyone to read it. I'm off to read the next two now. Congratulations James! Good job. Quote Link to comment

JamesSavik Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Wow- Freethinker- coming from you, that's awesome. < purrs really loud! Cole- you always get a early screening. Quote Link to comment
FreeThinker Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Happily Ever After was very moving. I wish I had known people like that when I was that age. I lost my father when I was young and I can relate to Randy's pain. And, the story makes me nostalgic again for the seventies, especially the music. I spent a part of my childhood in the Dallas Ft Worth area and several years later in Austin, so the story has more personal attractions for me. Another good job! Quote Link to comment
colinian Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Excellent. Wonderful. Bravo, James! Colin Quote Link to comment
Merkin Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 What I admire most about JamesSavik writing this thoughtful, compelling trilogy is his willingness to bare himself and lay the facts and experiences out there so that we can learn and gain insight--and perhaps, for some of us, a measure of consolation.It is only by bearing witness in this profound way that those who come after us can realize the awful danger. Let us hope that this dreadful era in our recent history can be prevented from occurring again. It was Satayana who said 'Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.'

ChrisR Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 A truly wonderful trilogy. Like life itself it has its wonderful moments as well as its dark periods. It is truly real. And being a Longhorn I can feel the whole thing happen, Thank you. Quote Link to comment
