Acidalia 14

It may have been a long time coming but finally I'll be releasing the next chapter of Acidalia. Hopefully this is exciting news, possibly no one will care :). Either way it should be out sometime next weekish. It's my hope after that to get another out approximately every other month.

It's Alive! It's Alive!

Martin and I have created Frankenstein's PC out of his old PC and some parts. The OS is in french and for some reason my copy of office did not want to install in English, so that's in German, but I have a working comp to write on again. Now hopefully I can get some work done on my serials, Novels and the last of the intro stories for the Hyperverse I've been trying to flesh out.

So hopefully, if I'm porductive this week, you'll all be seeing something from me soon :)

Internet Provider going out of business

OK, well a few of you sort of keep track of me and for that I am thankful. So I have "Clear" as an internet service. The landlord pays for it so it is free to me, for which I have been thankful also.

For the last month it has been even more of a cludge than normal and today it is not working at all. I am on the internet using the hotspot from my cell phone and that will be extremely limited.

I can't get Comcast or anyone else because I do not have a signed lease agreement. Hmmmm Until I work this out, there will be no skype, and very limited access to the internet.

Loonily, Live what you write

So, I am "tooling up" to finish the three stories that will be part of my anthology to be published this fall. Yesterday, I received the suggestion that at least one of my stories are Kindle "book length". Hmmmm. So, now I am full of ideas. Incidentally, so far I am planning to use Amazon, so anyone with helpful hints about using them, be my guest. I am thinking that anything that Amazon publishes must be removed from BCTS, though have not talked with a publicist yet. I plan to do that in June. Most of my stories will either go in the Anthology or be published separately.

The Last Easter Story

Hello everyone! My 'End of the World: The Last Easter' is finally up! I apologize for the troubles last night, but it was one of those perfect storms of site problems and my trying to post at the same time. Now, everything is fine!

As I said, this is the last part of the 'End of the World' series. I was rather satisfied how the endings in both universes pulled together even if other parts 'tasked' me. If you're writer you know what I mean!

024 - Revelations

The DarkRealms Universe

I know the universe has gone a little flat lately and that's partially my fault but I can't help but think that people don't seem to understand it either. I have a set of rules but most of my rules for the universe are in the stories. So if you really want to write a DarkRealms story, please READ all the stories in the universe before pitching me an idea. Its not that hard. Most if not everything you need to know about the universe is in there. If its not, drop me a PM and ask me.

Transgender equality and your role in achieving it

So the petition to Amazon for them to create a transgender fiction genre ran up to 223 signatures and then it just stalled. Considering the amount of hits we get on this site, I think we can hit the goal of 1000 signatures in a day if people just took a few minutes out of their busy schedules to sign.

Duality~4

Angel


  Then there were the times when I felt angry and frustrated at the least little thing. Was it normal for a boy, for regretfully I was one under my finery, to have such strange feelings?

 
 
Duality

By Susan Brown
 

I would like to thank Miss Jane Austen for the inspiration for this novella, which is based on a time prior to that which is described in Pride And Prejudice and involves a few of the characters in that great work.

For the Love of a Girl

I have been sitting on this story for a while now. originally written as a Tragedy,I changed the ending several times before I got it the way I wanted it. It is long I admit, but I hope those who read it all the way through enjoy it. I figured Easter weekend was a good time for a love story and I hope that is what everyone who reads it sees.

Gaby Book 10 Chapter *32* Canned Heat

Chapter *32*Canned Heat

The following morning's ride was pretty straightforward, no specific aims, no special requirements. Despite that it was a much more disciplined affair than when we started last week, we formed up into a rotation without prompting, no one trying to burst the pack or shying from their turn. That's not to say it wasn't a hard ride, we headed across to Glossop before turning south over some fairly tough climbs to Chapel en le Frith before heading back towards Manchester.

Somewhere Else Entirely -102-

Garia is completely devastated by the new visitor to the palace. Keren isn't exactly happy either. Unfortunately, she seems to be better qualified for the job of Consort to a King. Garia must swallow her pride and carry on dealing with the consequences of the conflict with Yod, but the new girl's story raises her curiosity.

102 - The candidate

Family Feud

So alot has happened this past week. I went into a job interview for an entry position Data Entry job. and I walked in to find my cousin who didn't know I was trans* sitting there waiting for her turn at the same job. And she flipped out. after a long awkward interview I left only to find out that I wasn't getting the job. Not only that but either my Dad or my Sister gave her my number, so now the entire family knows it. Along with me being trans*. And have been harrassing me nonstop as I tried to get the numbers blocked. as far as I could tell the family is broken into 3 factions.

Petition Update - day 2

Yay for us. We already hit 100 signatures on the petition and I'm getting read to make the next move (media involvement). I really think this is important. It is about equality, but also about recognition that transgender literature and people are not all about sex. I am keeping the petition open for a week as I figure things out this Easter weekend. I would love for people to look at the intended letter going to Amazon and give some pointers or suggestions to make it better.

Keep signing and thanks.

Here's the link. I can't do graphics or I'd have confetti falling.

Megan Fairy Princess

This was written fourteen years earlier after she was gone. You don't have to believe. I didn't at the time. However some of us are..., different. Me? Let's just say I'm a "reader". I didn't know I was different. I thought everyone saw movies or pictures when they touched another person. I digress, this is about Megan who changed my perspective on reality.

Many years back she came into my life kind of like an Oklahoma whirlwind, confusing, bubbly, and talked a mile a minute.

River Dee map._1.gif

On the Map the old river Dee is the dotted line between Chester in England and Flint in Wales.

More skirmishes with the Vikings ensue and Gisela wins her spurs. The Siege of Chester is relieved by Drustina's small victory on the banks of the River Dee (Afon Dyfrdwy.). Further plans and preparations ensue as Drustina prepares for the forthcoming battle.

Readers are advised to brush up their Geography of the two estuaries River Dee and River Mersey.

Update on petition to Amazon

So yesterday I started my petition to Amazon. I really should have done it much sooner because it is something that frustrates me to no end. Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords etc. have no dedicated transgender fiction genre and expect us to lump our work either under gay and lesbian or erotica. I don't think either is fair or right. But Amazon isn't going to do something solely for me, so I got organized.
