I do love this story so; it's so caring and compassionate. I do like a writer that clearly cares about their characters. I really hope you find time to write more often.

Um, to Lilkahuna, I did post "The Magic Bean" just this past November. Maybe you're not counting that one because it was in a different category than the others? I'd love to write more, but an exhausting schedule doesn't allow for many opportunities.

One of the best stories I’ve ever read on this site. Certainly is a favorite of mine, definitely will come back to it whenever I need (cough) inspiration

An exquisitely sweet story, well-written, AND full of excitement for the birth of modern comics? I didn't know it was still Christmas XD.

Another one?

You’ve done great with the build up. I am the type of reader that loves a story, not just sex scene after sex scene. Thank you for being so descriptive about the building of a relationship before this sex, it brings the characters in your stories to life.

The best I've read so far. And I have been reading extensively for quite some time now

Thank you for a wonderful journey

Plagiarised? Literotica protects copyright, I thought.

I wonder how one goes about bringing their attention to copyright violations.

This is a wonderfully entertaining and well written story! It's a crying shame if some talentless bastard stole it.

AnonymousAnonymousalmost 4 years ago

Great story, great development of the relationship, lovely sex.

You might be interested to know that it is so good that someone has plagiarised it, just changing a few minor details

This is so well written, I almost felt I was there in the fifties with them. I have a fascination with that time, even though it was so repressed sexually and a girl like me wouldn't have had much fun then. I loved everything about this story. It even made me shed a tear at the end.

One of the best stories on this site!

I'm a lifelong comic book fan, so it was a pleasant surprise to come across such a well-written story on one of my favorite subjects. I've read a bit about some of the artists and writers who worked in the field back then and it seems like you got all the details just right.

More importantly, you gave us characters we could care about and put them in a situation we could believe.

Romance, hot sex and comic books. A tough combination to beat. :)

Beautiful story

This story had momentum. I loved the build up from the early story, to the relationship starting and the quick pace of the sex scenes. Or maybe I was just speed reading by that point? Their discovery of each other was exquisite and genuine. I remember well those early days of discovering how good another person could be and this story described it beautifully. The ending gave me tears. Thank you x

AnonymousAnonymousover 9 years ago
Wonderful

What a wonderful story this is. It's got just about everything---warmth, emotions, humour, a little sadness, and buckets of happiness. And to cap everything, it's very well written (that sounds patronising but it's not meant to be: I've frequently found on this site that good story/plot-lines and good writing don't always go hand-in-hand). I loved "The Adventures of Stephanie" book---I was visualising the cartoons in my head as I was reading. And the sex scenes were truly erotic rather than pornographic. Five stars and I wish it could be a lot more.

Wonderful, Absolutely Fantastic!!!!!!

I am in awe of this story, i find my self in tears of joy. I cant put in words how this story made me feel, there is one other story on this site that gave me hope in finding love and i believe you have surpassed it. Being a African American women my self i can identify with Ava's character and although this story may be fiction, i firmly believe that some where in the past this has happened and i find it heart warming to know love like this exist. You are a fantastic writer and i am grateful to have had the pleasure of reading such an extraordinary tale. I had not found an interracial story that was so refreshingly whimsical and light of heart. I laughed, i cried and most defiantly smiled inside. Thank you, and please continue writing. You have my utmost respect as a writer and i hope to write something that with touch someones heart as you have done to mine today!!!!! :-D

one of Literotica's finest wordsmiths

I've only just discovered your stories. I've enjoyed them all in varying degrees, but "Like a Secret Being Told" and "Remembering Ava" are masterpieces. There are passages in these two stories that read like literature.

When read in order of publication, the progression of your writing skill becomes obvious. Though I was disappointed that your most recent entry was your least ambitious, I can certainly understand about the time constraints. Even that brief tale had prose that was better than 95% of the stuff to be found on this site. At any rate this is the first time I was so moved by a Lit story that I felt compelled to comment. Thank you.

My Favourite

Have enjoyed all your stories but this one is my favourite and it makes me think that maybe the 'taboo' attitude in those days promoted closer love sometimes.

I'm 73 now. I like the odd tear or two when I'm reading. Thank you. XXX

Wonderful!

Congratulations; What a lovely story! I have read it twice, and each time I have enjoyed it a whole lot. It is touching, very well written, the characters are complex and carefully outlined, and the erotic scenes are delicately described. Reading the story makes you wish you had met so sweet, kind-hearted and courageous girls in real life. It is a great story, period, and not only a great erotic story. Thank you very much! Please write more stories like this one.

Perhaps you might consider writing stories for the general public, in case you have not already done so (with the alias, you can never know, can you?). I am sure you will achieve a great success.

By the way, I am a man, I was born and live in Spain, and I am straight and over 50, like a previous anonymous commentator.

Dear Heart

I've just completed all 4 of your stories and am awestruck; and not quite sure that words can express my gratitude OR appreciation. These should all be presented to Lifetime (or any other)Network as potential movies as they'd all be instant classics.

As stated previously; these women appeared to be IN LOVE with each other for completely real & obvious reasons, before they even really considered the ramifications. The future was a natural progression of their past; quite lovely to flesh "all 4" out on my imagination. Due to your skill; I felt as though I was right there the entire time, and all have left an indelible impression on my soul. I feel as though they were all friends; and that I've lost something very beautiful at the end of the stories, even though I've also gained something else.

As a 50+ yo straight man (and Ex Marine) I'd love to share them with friends and family ... DKP

The kind of romance we all long for

Beautifully sketched characters, a wonderfully natural style of narration, a lyrical use of language bordering on the poetic, a story that builds to a resolution that is surprising and yet seemingly inevitable. And the coda is pure gold. I can't say enough about this gift of a tale.

AnonymousAnonymousalmost 11 years ago
Touching, romantic, and tastefully erotic

I really loved this story. I normally don't like erotica because it tends to just sound awkward, but this was so beautiful. Even the sex was tasteful, while graphic enough to earn the label. The characters were real and heartful- genuine. Using the frames of race and time period was intriguing, and the whole retrospective storytelling was genius. I would love to hear more about Stephanie and Ava's relationship. Coming from a young generatiom that now enjoys the early fruits of labor of women like them, I really am fascinated by LGBT people (especially women) who braved the worst back before it was socially acceptable to utter the words "lesbian" or "gay". I wish I could tell each one of those real life pioneers thank you for being trailblazers for kids like me. The best I can do right now is leave this comment and hope someone sees it and understands my appreciation.

Best Story on the site!

This story isn't just merely erotic but loving and romantic and just wonderful! I have to say this is forever gonna be my favorite erotic story and it has inspired me to get better at my own erotic writing. I mean the reader feels such a connection and love for both of the character, and the name Ava was perfect it makes me think of Ava Gardner who is just as smoking hot too. It would be so cool if there could be a follow up or telling about another part of there beautiful life together

This story has to be one of my favorite stories I have ever read. At first I thought it would be not at all sweet and romantic. More one-night-stand-ish and get-it-over-with,but it was slow,warm,and heartwarming. Love in one of it's purest forms. Please keep sharing stories like these,for the world is in need of them.

Beautifully Written

One of those stories that will resonate with all who read it. It addressed taboos that were there in the fifties and sixties and did it in a way that made me understand that these women fell in love long before the lust was on the table. I don't think either of them planned on loving a woman and that is what is so intriguing to me. The beautiful in their love, and beautiful and sensual in their lovemaking. A wonderful story.

My words fail to do this story justice, yet I am compelled to try, for rarely do I find such a beautiful and moving story - here, or elsewhere.

The story felt authentic, real, and that includes the historical perspective, which so many authors get wrong. The prose flows beautifully, even poetically.

I dare say it is the best story I read this year. Thank you.

You write very nicely, and the story was entertaining. So different from most of the stories on this site including my own. I plan to read all of your stories as this on resinated with me in a lingering way. It was less about sex and more about a special relationship that bloomed over a life time - but it was great.

Thanks
