2024-02-12 03:06:57 +0000 UTCQuite welcome, m’dude. I hope you read this fifteen-page story on the treadmill though and not between two hammer curl sets

2024-02-12 01:05:54 +0000 UTCGot me crying’ in the gym, my dude. As a kid raised by a gas station, it is appreciated.

2024-02-11 22:15:32 +0000 UTCI started this — the part up until the room lunch — in late 2019, for the Oni anthology. The rest, and a considerable rewrite, happened last Thursday and Friday.
Chris Onstad
2024-02-11 22:09:28 +0000 UTCChris - did you write this “recently”, or “back then”? The answer doesn’t affect my enjoyment, just curious in the creative sense.

2024-02-11 19:56:27 +0000 UTCHe didn’t know whether to feel insulted or respected, which is a common strabismus of children who are raised by gas stations Situations that increase the surface area for heroics My code is a dog's code compared to this

2024-02-11 18:27:29 +0000 UTCWell, I started out - not not liking it, but sort of confused at the beginning tone and wondering where it was going - and damned if it wasn’t just right. Ray may need a little help getting there, but he does take care of his boy- and vice versa. “Oh crouching Jesus in the shadows a man was never this much of another man's dogg,” as someone once said. Finest kind, Onstad. Finest kind. Thanks.

2024-02-10 23:37:37 +0000 UTCYou’re quite welcome James. Perhaps I shall chronicle their upcoming visit to Six Flags - Platinum After Hours
Chris Onstad
2024-02-10 23:27:29 +0000 UTCBrother you can quote me as saying anything great about Achewood that you want, whether or not I said it, because I probably thought it. But yes, you have my formal permission.
Gavin Byrnes
2024-02-10 23:13:48 +0000 UTCThis is perfect. Thanks Onstad
James Cash
2024-02-10 22:59:22 +0000 UTCThank you so much for your kind words Nate.

2024-02-10 21:57:50 +0000 UTCWe’re talking Icky Bolero here, not some hoot-toot like Kanye West
Chris Onstad
2024-02-10 21:57:24 +0000 UTCIt's kinda fascinating to think that Ray somehow wasn't already rubbing shoulders with that level of jet-setter.

2024-02-10 21:17:40 +0000 UTCI began by hating Ray for his association with the ultra wealthy, I’ve spent time with some in a service capacity and my contempt knows no bounds, and ended humbled, friendship like this can’t be derailed by mere money.

2024-02-10 20:49:19 +0000 UTCWe should all be so lucky as to have a Delfino grace our lives
Chris
2024-02-10 20:46:53 +0000 UTCAbsolutely incredible writing. Your comics show us the characters and let us learn their standard comings and goings, but it feels like an introductory work when compared with your short fiction prose.

2024-02-10 20:23:42 +0000 UTCI knew they would hug but I did not know any of the rest.

2024-02-10 19:54:34 +0000 UTCThank you Gavin! That is so kind of you. Can I quote you or just use the quote in promo stuff for the Patreon?
Chris Onstad
2024-02-10 18:57:19 +0000 UTCthis is so beautiful. i have no idea how i would even *begin* to explain to somebody how beautiful it is. but i guess everyone here already knows. might cry.
Gavin Byrnes
2024-02-10 18:48:27 +0000 UTCI have done this! Looking for an agent. Thanks for the kind words Sam.
Chris Onstad
2024-02-10 18:41:09 +0000 UTCSpoilers, man! Spoilers! These people shouldn’t know about Ray and Beef winning the big fishing contest together yet
Chris Onstad
2024-02-10 18:40:43 +0000 UTCPlease write a novel. Please. Doesn't have to be Achewood, just need 300-500 pages of fiction written to this quality. Please.

Matt Mitchell
2024-02-10 18:33:08 +0000 UTCWow. That's a repaired broken friendship
