BashfulScribe Posted January 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 It could go either way if we're dealing with hypotheticals. I mean sure in the short term he'll be upset but I could make the case for his parents looking at that as him being upset over not smoking anymore or some stupid crap along those lines. I'd like to think Nicole was looking at the long-term when she made that call. I don't normally raise points over my own story because I prefer to tell it in the story itself, but remember that this isn't the first time Nicole made a rash decision that has a lot of implications, just because she figured it was her responsibility alone to make the call.

BashfulScribe Posted January 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 Also I've been trying to make it a new year, a new me. I'm writing for these stories every Sunday and trying to contribute to my Twitter at least once a day so people can stop hounding me about how it's 'pointless.' Is there any preference for me to keep contributing to these forums with what I'm up to as well? I can do that if need be. I sure will be using this forum to shamelessly promote the crap out of myself if I end up contributing to something else that has tangible form or gets posted to the internet.

Joe Long Posted January 13, 2016 Report Share Posted January 13, 2016 I don't like to suggest where story lines should go, that's up to the author. However, I have often played along with others in guessing, even though I realize that it may be counter-productive, in that if we actually do guess what the author has in mind, they may be less likely to do the story that way for fear of being seen as doing it the way the crowd wanted. What I do like to do is look at the past of the story, seeing how I as a reader have interpreted what's been written so far. What i wrote above is definitely how I would feel, and after reading this story for over a year I do think that's quite a reasonable reaction for Adam. I noticed the descriptions of the sex that bashful wrote into this last chapter. It was though Adam was never as physically close to Nicole as he was at that moment, and then she took it away. I know she meant well and it's likely the right call for their long term relationship - but I expect it to be damn hard for Adam to stifle his rejection and hurt to the extent that his parents won't notice that something's dreadfully wrong. But hey, even us grown adults struggle to make the right call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BashfulScribe Posted February 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 Hey all! Bittersweet update. I've been fairly silent for the past little while because my writing tablet has been fighting a battle to keep its screen working that it just lost a few days ago. The stuff I thought I transferred didn't transfer successfully so it took me a fair amount of time to transfer and it was all for naught. I don't like abandoning my writing and trying again when I know what I have so far is correct so I'm gonna dedicate at maximum another week to getting my content back. If I do within the week, I *promise* I'll update within February. If not, I'll slip back into my normal sad unproductive self and go back to my 'the next update will happen when it happens' mode.

Guest Bill Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 Bashful, I was wondering where you were we the story. I hope your are able to get the tablet to recover your data. I really look forward to reading your next chapter. I want Adam to continue his relationship sexually and not let it be over. They seem good for each other.

BashfulScribe Posted February 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Good news and better news. Good news is, I recovered all of my writing. Better news is, I don't like breaking promises and I'll have an update to my writing this week (before next Monday). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BashfulScribe Posted February 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Side note - I really hope Samsung tablets are good. I picked mine up for cheap after seeing the cheapest possible iPad was $450. Sadly I'm no longer the starry-eyed Apple fanboy I once was.

Sadly I'm no longer the starry-eyed Apple fanboy I once was. Root it and put Cyanogenmod on it and they're pretty great. I had a second gen galaxy tab for a few years and it served me well. Just upgraded about a year ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BashfulScribe Posted February 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 Thanks for the tip, Guest N! I know more of you would prefer an update for Being More Social, but whatever - The Good, the Bad and the Molly Chapter 4 was released today. I hope you all enjoy and if you don't, you know where to find me so you can yell death threats at me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
that-one-guy Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 As a point about 'the other site', there's only ever a day or two a week when stories get uploaded, they're held in a backlog but I don't know why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BashfulScribe Posted February 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 Really? That's kind of stupid. Unless their popularity has massively spiked or the law is cracking down on them to monitor uploads, I have no clue why that's going on...

Joe Long Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 One typo you may want to correct - She responded to me grabbing her head by making the kisses became more frantic, more powerful. Two or three times used 'offence' instead of the US 'offense' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Akamu Posted March 1, 2016 Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 Nice chapter, but I'm guessing you kinda rushed this one, as in one paragraph it's her "bra-covered breast", but later it's "no bra in the way" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BashfulScribe Posted June 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 ...Oh, right. Chapter 14 of Being More Social is out. I'm on a roll so I'll probably also do 15 before I return to GBM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest! Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 Great! I do not post a lot here but been reading BMS a few times, since the "blue site". great read as usual my friend! The only downside is the delay, which will be shorter this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BashfulScribe Posted June 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Absolutely! The wait will be shorter for the next chapter. **Don't hold me to this**, but I want Being More Social, the entire story, to be done for the end of summer. I'm taking less work hours to try to make it happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BashfulScribe Posted June 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Y'know what? Fuck it. I normally don't like forums, but this is where I'm gonna stick updates from here on in because Twitter's 140 character limit is stupid. Because I was on a roll and because as Jashley agrees with me, the ending to BMS chapter 14 seems like a cop-out high school sex story ending, I went straight into writing chapter 15 of BMS. Which is fine, seeing as it is incredibly more popular than GBM. I'm about halfway through it as we speak. And I want to freaking finish it considering I have, and this is no hyperbole, dozens of other story ideas and I realize if I keep gonig at my current pace I'll literally never get to write them. It's raining right now. It's really pretty outside. That's all I have to report for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Long Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 I thought chapter 14 was turning a corner in the Adam/Nicole relationship, but not that it was over yet. Sex was all they had as Nicole would let herself admit to being involved emotionally. She didn't want to go there. Adam wanted more than just friendship (doubting that would last) and started to purse Nicole romantically and her wall started to show some cracks as she warmed to his advances.
