A O.

Not a bad place to find gay stories. The site has a broad mix of content with tons of stories. Like any free site, not every story is award-winning material, but there's a fair amount of readable stuff, and some is surprisingly good. Some of it's pretty compelling reading. It's just a question of what you're looking for. It's nice to see it's not all porn, even if some stories skate the edge.

Yeah, there's stuff that will make you cringe, but it's free content. Move on to the next story. Check the forums for recommendations.

I've been a member for about five years and enjoy the online community. The active population fluctuates periodically, but the forums can be a lively distraction. I haunted the place for several months anonymously before I ever chimed in anywhere. Most people just read the stories.

The management appears a touch heavy-handed at times, but it's always one-sided information because they never give details about moderation issues to the rest of us. In my experience, creative types can be awfully sensitive (not just authors) and I wouldn't want to have to keep this many members in line when they try to game the system.

The negatives aside, I think the site is more than worth taking a peek at.
