Are you reading The Boss? Are you dying at the wait between chapters? Then today’s Saturday Conversation over at That’s What I’m Talking About will be of particular interest to you! Head on over there and find out what the big news is, then stay and discuss chapter four!
Much as i'd like to, that website breaks my computer. It won't load and everything freezes until I shut it all down. 🙁
Boss will be updating weekly. 5&6 will be out Friday.
What the hell is flatter? *thus outing just how out of touch I am with social media/donation button/blog stuffs*
Oh, that suuuucks, because it's such a cool site. She does great reviews. And yes, Anon is correct, The Boss is now updated weekly, every Friday, with two chapters coming out next Friday, then going back to one chapter a week.
It's this thing where you put in money and decide which blogs and channels and stuff to give it to? Someone suggested it, and when I checked it out I signed up for it, because it seems like a pretty good idea. They link a lot of content to the flattr site, and you can find some cool stuff on there. I'm a total noob, but it seems like a cool idea.
Understand my confusion stems from “flatter” meaning to “flat” art work or comic book pages. A flatter takes a black and white inked page and fills it in with flat but highly visible colors so the artist/colorist can idea what things to color and how better.
But it can also come from the word “flattery” which would make more logical sense….*moving on now*
Best. News. Ever.
I wish I could comment there, but I can't! 🙁 I noticed one of the topics was the age difference and I have to say that it doesn't bug me at all. In fact, if it wasn't brought up by the characters, it wouldn't even be a plot point for me. I've always been attracted to older men. One of my boyfriends was 20 years older than me, and our break up had nothing to do with our ages, and my fiance is 10 years old than me. 🙂 This chapter is one of the best so far!
My parents have a 10 year exactly age gap between them (along with a 30 and 40 age gap between them and my baby brother). I also have a cousin whom at 18 married a man of 38 (so 20 years).
I think when one is still under age, the age difference is being used as a status symbol (meaning when one gets out of the “required” age range they get the drop) and age is not being used as means to control (younger controlling the older, older controlling/grooming the younger **very, VERY, VERY against that**) and it's informed consent with both parties do as you like and to each their own.
(it's as strange as hell to no longer be an Anon and to have an actual name to my posts now. Just wanted to say that).
Yay!
I also can't comment on the site, but I enjoy reading what other people have to say.
I love the age thing too, I've always dated guys that are older than I am bc I feel like I'm babysitting when I'm with guys my own age.
Thank you thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!

The same thing happened to me when I opened it in Internet Explorer, but in Firefox, it loaded fine for me.
YAYAYAYAYYYYYY!!!!!!!
Quote from Jenny's brilliant writing:
“I'll need your address, for the driver,” he said apologetically.
“You can't stalk me off the company database?” I teased.
It fell flat when he turned suddenly serious. “I would really rather not.
That isn’t how I conduct my business or personal life.”
Hooray! Love this so much.
Yay!! This news made my week!
