"Sisterly Advice" by DJ810 (an446077@anon.penet.fi) This was the first story ever posted by this author, and it was a joy to read. It was the perfect blend of the sexy and the normal. The older sister returns home from college for the summer and discovers that her little brother has grown up and become interested in girls. Without passing any moral judgment at all on other writers who pursue a different plot, I want to say that I found it to be thoroughly refreshing to read a story in which there was sexual tension between brother and sister without having them become lovers. The boy is struggling with how to express his sexual feelings to his girlfriend; and the older sister, who is experiencing growing pains of her own, offers him advice and encouragement. The boy and his sister have grown up to be normal, decent kids; and the anxieties and problems they face are examples of the very real sex-related problems that normal, decent adolescents face. They even have a mother (a minor character) who seems to have common sense and who wants neither to jump into bed with her children nor to inhibit their sexuality by preaching to them that sex is a sin.

What is stylistically most impressive about this story is how well it maintains its continuity and has its impact by letting the characters display their feelings through their actions; and these are realistic, plausible feelings that many of us have shared. I was about two-thirds of the way through this story and I had been feeling its constant sexual tension, when I realized that the words cum, cunt, pussy, etc. had not been used at all; and I doubted that they would be used during the rest of the story. There was no need for them. Even though I have not experienced *exactly* what these two experienced, the story was close enough to my own reality that I found myself being turned on by the events and feelings themselves, even before I started to nostalgically remember similarities to my own adolescent life.

Because there are several issues that are unresolved at the end of the story, it is my guess that this author plans to continue this story into a longer work. I urge her to be cautious. This is already an outstanding story. The issues that are unresolved are fine as they are - unresolved. I strongly recommend this story. It made my day.
