***Featured Story for May 2018*** (by Bob)

Justin never got to go camping with Brian during the Liberty Ride.  This is what happens when he finally persuades him to experience the joys of living in the wilderness.  Chaos ensues! 

Can Michael top Ben? Ben hints to Michael that he would like Michael to top him occasionally. Michael, who has only topped once years ago and it wasn’t great, panics and turns to Brian for help, but Brian tells him to talk to Justin. 

I still can't believe this is my life. Two days ago I was the stud of Liberty Avenue and a successful adman, today... today I am a father. I still recall the words he whispered in my ear that night, as we all sat in Lindsay's hospital room: "You deserve to be loved Brian. Don't let anyone make you think you can't, don't let them win. Show them they are wrong"

I've dedicated all my life to show Saint Joan, Jack and every homophobe out there that underestimating me was a mistake. I became a successful businessman, being the head of the advertising department in Ryder's Advertising. I had the money, the looks, the gang and everyone wanted me... but I was still hallow.

I've proved them all wrong in everything, but one thing. I ended up believing their words, that I was unwanted, that no one will ever love me, that I was not desired, that I should have been aborted.

However, all that changed two days ago. When, I met a fallen angel under a streetlight, no matter how lesbian I sounded, to me that was true. Looking so innocent and pure, he was just asking for me to pick him up. I don't normally go for blonds, but I wanted to be in that world- that world of light- at least for a night.

It appears that Brian does do romance, even if some people don’t want to acknowledge it…

After Justin Taylor gets his heart broken by famous Hollywood actor Brian Kinney, he finds that having famous friends comes with a price.

Smut-mas challenge: Twenty-five prompts for twenty-five days; Spend Christmas at Britin with the boys.

* STORY NOW COMPLETE *

***Featured Story/Series for July 2017***

Everyone thinks Brian and Justin broke up after the attack at the Prom. What happens when they find out that Justin never was out of the picture? And what have he and Brian been up to in the meantime? Some Michael bashing...

This is the first story I'm posting on this site, but this is not a new story. It is, in fact, more than a year old. I was recently invited to this site by a reader at another site and decided to post some of my stories here. So if this seems familiar, perhaps you have already read this one. ~Jules

NOTE: Here is the link to the series of stories: Betrayal

What happens when Justin's need for food, Brian's need for something (but he doesn't know what) and Michael's need for attention clash...

Post 5-13. Justin decides what to do with his life after his art show. He's miserable in New York without Brian...I know it's been done before, but I have a million ideas, and need to get some of them out!

"What will Gus do to protect his baby sister when his mothers hit a rocky plateau in their relationship?  And how will it affect Brian and Justin's lives?"    

When Brian hears over the radio that Babylon was subjected to a bombing, all he can concentrate on is racing to his club to make sure the people he loves are alive and safe. He doesn't expect to be irreversibly injured himself. As Brian faces a slow recovery and a permanent disability, he must learn to accept the support of his friends and the love of his partner.

Gift Request: angst, hurt/comfort. Justin+Ben friendship. Ben comforting Justin after fighting with Brian or after something bad happened. No character death, no bittersweet endings. If Michael or lesbians are in it, very little of them, or stories that paint them in a negative light. Everything else is fair game.

AU that happens somewhere in Season 2.

This is a kind of dark story. Justin leaves Brian, and only leaves a book of matches in their house. This idea was from Sammy Kershaw's song Matches. One-shot. Warning death.

Michael gets it in his head, it's finally time for him and Brian to be together

What happens when Michael's machinations finally leave him all alone?

Melanie Marcus just found out something about her father, something that changes everything.    Come and join her on her journey, and what does Brian have to do with everything?  CHAPTER 6 IS NOW THE CORRECT CHAPTER

A new friend (thanks, Giotto!) pointed out that there are still people interested in Queer as Folk. I have 600 pages of this story typed up, the rest is still a manuscript - as in, handwritten. Actual pen, actual paper. The story itself is finished, it just needs typing and proof-reading. I think I'll have about 1,000 pages when I'm done.

I recently lost a lot of stuff due to a computer crash; so I decided to finally put this here, where it will hopefully be safe for a while. (I once did have the whole thing typed up. I'll do it one more time, but I really don't want to do that again after that!)

So. This story is my take on what happens when Justin returns from New York. Some places in Pittsburgh are my invention, others actually do exist, or rather, they existed at the time I wrote this. I used a lot of the characters we saw in the series, and I created a few more.

I'm not giving any warnings - if you watched QaF, you know what to expect. (I don't write explicit f/f, or f/m - the explicit m/m scenes all have Brian in them.) Hope you enjoy!

Banner by Janet - so beautiful, thank you!

Sometimes Hunter felt like he was dead, sent to some version of Hell for stealing, for tricking, for ditching school, or for just being born. But his heart beating in his chest, sometimes at a slow and steady beat, sometimes at a rapid and panicked pace...It was that alone that made him realize he wasn't in Hell after all. This city, as shitty as it was to him, was his reality.

Justin accidentally whispers Brian’s name out loud in the backroom of Babylon. This is a PWP with some plot.

According to the King of Pop and poet Peter Dale Wimbrow Sr. if you don’t like the appearance of your reflection or the life you have been living, it’s never too late to “man up” and fix it. Justin and Brian deal with the fallout from the Fiddler fiasco.

I want to give major props and a heartfelt shoutout to Kim aka Predec2 for the amazing banner she created for me. Thank you Kim, you are the best!

Brian misses Justin.

Warning: very, VERY weird Brian.

When Michael falls deathly ill and disappears out of thin air minutes before the ambulance arrives, Ben has never been more afraid in his life.

It's the last thing he needs right now.

Brian and Justin are always destined to be together. In this story, Justin and Gus are firends.
