Another of my favorite Pro’s writers is Slantedlight. She knows the lads inside and out. What makes her stories so special is the way she has with words. She doesn’t tell a story, she paints it. This bit makes me feel like I’m right there on the beach with Bodie watching Ray…
( excerpt 1 )Slantedlight’s stories feature a great plot, action, angst, hurt/comfort and throughout it all, we have the lads as the hard men they are. When she writes the scenes that show their love for each other, their vulnerability exposed, she writes it without feminizing them. They stay Bodie and Doyle.
( excerpt 2 )Beautifully described settings, moving scenes of angst and love… please give this one a try!
