The Heart of it All: A Wyld Universe story- Part 2 is up!

I got part 2 done and up, if anyone is interested. I originally began the story in Ian's view, but then I got to thinking it would be kind of cool focusing this part in Scott's eyes.

This is mostly a flashback, to get to understand Scott and her past. Also I wanted readers to understand her personality.

Lastly this is from the "Wyld Universe!" They're suppose to have some super powers, right? I introduced some of that in their too.

I'll continue with Part 3 in Ian's POV. I'll most likely switch back and forth between the two characters after every chapter.

"Is she like you?"

I was chatting with my friend Kylie yesterday on IMVU while my daughter was over, and she cuddled up close to me and watched me typing.

She looked at the avi of Kylie, and asked "Is she like you?"

I said, pointing at our avatars, "she's a pretty girl, like I am, see?"

My daughter then said, "No. Is she .... Like you?"

I said Yes, she's a boy on the outside, but a girl on the inside."

She just held on to me, and said nothing.

Does this mean she's getting the idea about me?

All male/female societies and their implications

Hi everyone,

there was a discussion at a blog of Angharard's yesterday, I sparked with a not so thought through comment... Someone made an interesting statement though... The fact that an all female society would be vastly different from the society we have today. I think that's quite an interesting topic, considering all those gender war stories that tend to crop up and expanding anti-male/female chauvinism.

Reclamation now on Lulu!

My book "Reclamation" is now available as an EPUB on Lulu! For the last few months it's been in Amazon's "Kindle Select" program and therefore exclusive to Amazon. It's sold well and gotten 4.5 stars so far (fingers crossed) and now it's part of the Lulu distribution so will be at the iBookstore for Apple folks, Barnes Noble for Nook folks, and Lulu for everyone else.

Enjoy!

The Ram 34

This chapter describes the preparations for the wedding and the delicate issue of briony's parents agreeing to attend a wedding where both participants are wearing bridal gowns.

Sorry about the delays in posting this chapter but real life has really been getting in the way. However it was good stuff and I've been so busy enjoying life that writing HAD to take back shelf for a week or so.

I have really been growing old disgracefully. (Hey it's my form of therapy so don't knock it.)

just came home from the counselors

I had a good session, with one of the things I did was have an exercise where I pretended to punch my rapist, taking time to see how my body moved, what muscles I would use, and so on. Being given permission to be angry at him in a safe place felt pretty good.

Gay rights - oppression in Russia

According to an article in the Guardian, St Petersburgh is following other right wing local legislatures in condemning 'Gay propaganda'. I wonder if we've seen the pendulum start to swing back to the right after the recent increase in liberal policies around the world.

Looking at the way the church in Europe and America is increasingly trying to undermine personal freedoms and various governments seem intent on the same agenda, are we starting to see a reversion to old hypocrasies, double standards and totalitarianism?

A Life to Remember, Chapter 7

April 14, 2012

The view from the deck of the yacht was breathtaking.

A calm sea. She could easily see the stars in the sky, it was so dark.

There was a coolness in the air.

"You know Howard, I could easily imagine it," she told the man who had been her personal assistant not long after settling into a position at Pierpont International after she graduated at the top of her class at Harvard. She was expected to rise quickly in the family business, which she did.

Her brother Michael ran the company. He was the president and CEO.

Lulu Sale: Buy 3, get the 4th book free through March 15th!

Lulu is having a sale--the headline says it all. Through March 15th--that's this Thursday!--buy three books and get a fourth free. The code is "FOURLEAF".

This is also a shameless plug for my "On the Road-Again" series of, ahem, four books ...

an incident with the ex

I had forgot to mention a little incident that happened between my ex and my mom on Thursday night. They had a open house at the school my daughter will attend next year, and after a presentation, they were supposed to take a tour in small groups starting with the people at the back of the auditorium. My ex, my mom, and my daughter were at the front, but my ex grabbed my daughter and ran to join the first group, leaving my mom behind. Unable to keep up, my mom decided to skip the tour entirely and went to her car to wait.

Wild Magic 34

It’s definitely not one of my better nights for sleeping. I’m trying to sleep-really, I am. I just can’t relax, thinking about what Tim’s mother, Tina had said. She knew about the magic and she thought it was wonderful.

But just how much did she know? And how did she know? Did Tim tell her my secret? He wouldn’t do that, would he?

Why would someone take control of Mama Gwen for almost a year? Was it, as Grandma suggested, a practice run to prepare them to possess me?

Noob Questions, a small bagful

OK, start with the general basics and work myself to specifics.

Frankly, this site confuses me a little. There are several ways to do different things, and some of the stuff that seems obvious isn't. BC is very deep, but in good ways, I just have to learn the in and outs.

Question 1. Which the best way to ask questions, this forum, FAQ, or blogs? I think they are cross linked to some degree, but I'm not sure how that works.

Sarah Carerra - 3.07 - The Great Allentown Fair

She always stopped to listen when I sang this song. I always turned my attention to her as I sang this verse. Many of my songs had emotional ties that made them great. But no other song was imbued with emotions like this song was.

February 2012 Short Story Contest Winners

Voting for the Short Story Month February 2012 Contest is over. I debated leaving the voting open another day to see if we could get 150 voters but we need 20 more and we did not get 20 voters on the last day of voting and I don't think we would get 20 more with one more day. So there are only five prizes instead of six.

Here are the results of the voting.

130 voters cast their ballots and the top five stories all won $29 for their writers:

FYI

Just a heads up, Alandria's song is not discontinued, I just can't seem to get into writing it right now, I've lost something somewhere in the story, every time I open chapter 5 I stare at it and start to cry because I can't write it, Once Sarah Book 1 is complete I plan on writing again on Further (Miss)Adentures of Sally and Susan, The Final Fantasy Series is a 4 part series, I may or may not write more, The Punisher Series I'm writing who knows depends on how well I like to write in the Retcon universe, everyone who's in it has been extremely helpful that I've talked to so far.

Hmmm, okay what's that...??

See I just opened the lappy and did the logging on thing and then went to do ..stuff.. and I brushed and slipped a folder from its lodgings to somewhere else. Ack, stoopid trackpad. So I open the folder and cut and paste it back where it lived. Then just for the hell of it I have a quick scan through the contents.

Now this folder is 'My Stories' file. Everything I've written, started, Blogged, had edited, it's all there. But then I come across this little file. I don't recognise it at all 19kb Oct 2010 at 1.20 am.... so I open it and...

Good drugs... :-)

Just wanted to leave a little note here that the projects I'm involved in will be a bit slower for awhile. Specifically stories I'm co-authoring with Ashly (DarkKitten) or editing for her might be a bit backlogged, as I'm currently recovering from oral surgery. Every day is hit or miss. Like tonight I felt great, and helped her edit Punisher 1 in no time :-) But last night and this morning I could barely see straight. :-)

I've got some good painkillers though, and HOPEFULLY recovery should be pretty quick, but I just wanted to post a li'l update that I'm not being lazy or anything. :-P So look for ESWS some time next week maybe, and the rest I'll try not to slow Ashly down too much on :-)

Burkes Virus

The Burke's Virus: The Burke's Virus (aka The Bug) universe revolves around a strange virus that can cause human transformation and is considered nearly as common as the flu. It is not uncommon for a person to catch it again every year or so.

The virus is officially named the Burke's Biomorphic Virus after the scientist who discovered it, but is called Burke's for short and is also quite commonly known as The Bug.

Assassin update

After looking at my stories page, I notice there is still some interest in my Assassin series. I know it's a shameless plug, but it is available on Kindle. I also tried to have it done in print with Createspace at Amazon, but the story is to long by six or so pages, 828 is the maximum and Assassin runs at 834 so I have to find a way to edit it down to their maximum if I want it in print. The concept at Createspace is interesting, but you pay for each page printed with no up front money. The only problem might be the length will make the book so expensive no one will want to buy it.

Unanticipated Astonishing Blessing!

The most profoundly thrilling thing in life for me is music and in almost every genre from Apalachian Hill Country, to Tabla Turbo to Kathrine Jenkins to ZZ Top to Queen to Handel and I likes it loud enough for my subwoofer to make nail pops in my walls. My soul soars with the angels.

Time

Time

Today begins Daylight Savings Time in the U S.

1. What is time?

2. Why was the first “thing” that G-d sanctifies was time and not a place such as a mountain or river?

3. Why is time the most mentioned “thing” in the Torah?

4. Physicists tell us that there are more than four dimensions (length, width, thickness and time). These dimensions are subatomic and curved. What is G-d telling us?

5. The first word in the Bible is “breesheet.” It is translated as: “In the beginning...”, “At the beginning…”, “It begins with…” a function of time.

a. Does time create space?

Charlotte

I've finally managed to get time to do another episode of Charlotte's Tale. I've said before that I find this one hardest to write because she seems to get into dark places. That hasn't changed, Jane is still a nasty piece of work, who has the power to embarrass or hurt our heroine.

I've had loads of requests to do some more of this story, so for those who sent them, I've acceded to your pressure and Charlotte's Tale 18 is up. I hope you enjoy it.
