Wow, my second story is receiving many more reads, comments, and kudos than the first - way more. It makes me very happy, as I do feel that Duchess is a better story than Grace in some ways.

At least, it seems to flow better, to me. And, writing it is going much smoother as well. Sure, I had a background hearing all of the bigoted crap that was in Grace, but that does not mean I enjoyed writing it!

have been adjusted upwards:

I'm not sure whether this counts as advertising, so I'll let the administrators decide and remove it if I have violated standards.

I'd like to apologize to my readers. Due to my hard drive dying last week, losing all the data on it, having to get another hard drive installed, reinstall everything, working out details for the separation and eventual divorce, and with getting my wisdom teeth pulled yesterday, dealing with the migraines from that, the lack of painkillers and life just generally kicking the crap out of me the past week the next chapters of Bloodlines and Trial and Heiress will be unavoidably delayed. I am working on them, but as hard as it is to focus right now it is slow going.

You probably all know of the Zelda games by Nintendo. If you don't, shame on you.

I little over a year ago I stumbled up a site called bigcloset and started to read various stories. Then being frustrated at not being able to post anything I registered on the site and submited a rather badly written story.

Now its offically a year here, and a bit, with me still dabbling at writing for my pleasure as I get to see what the ending is. Comments on the various stories in progress have helped me to well evolve into something less than pathatic at writing. Still with every one I write I get a bit better at it.

I am looking for an editor to help me get started writing stories, and I would feel better if my stories look more professional.

OK so I had a quick question, first of all sorry if I should have asked this in the forums. I have just started to write a story having been inspired by all the great stories on the site, and am looking for some suggestions for character names. Ideally I would need one male and two female names.

Many thanks in advance

Now let's not beat about the bush!

A while back, I wrote an entry that went something like this - "I've read a lot of stories here about a boy who becomes a girl, and when he sees the new person he's become, he's amazed (or even aroused) about how good he looks. Well, I dont live in one of those stories"

Apparently, I spoke too soon.

I was getting dressed this morning, and I had put on a cami as another layer in the cold weather, and happened to glance at my reflection.

Then I looked down at my chest, and back at the girl in the mirror, and actually swore.

I'm ... beautiful.

Read in the paper this morning that the RCMP (Canada's national police force) has made an "It gets better" video.

Well done, mounties.

Well done.

I was reading a blog post earlier wherein one of the commenters mentioned that this site is not appropriate for teens.

She's right. That's why we have the age warning on the very first page after typing in the address, after all.

But, how hard would it be to do something that WAS specifically for transgendered teens?

I just got back from taking Samantha's mom home, and had to talk about this amazing moment.

Maybe there is not going to be any state using chads, but if you are an American it is not just your right, but

I pulled God Bless the Child from the site like I said I was going to. I hope no one is upset at me, but I did feel it was necessary since I am selling it as an ebook. I did leave the comments in place instead of unpublishing it, because I like have the discussions available for future generations.

I got a letter from the government health department, and here is a quote:

I believe that I did say that things would change once I got my paper done. I got my paper done and turned in. That means nothing is left to really distract me from my writing. Enjoy folks.
