So, apparently my editor had some real life difficulties. This caused delays. I do not blame her for this. Just letting people know. 12-String in the future will be coming as it comes.

I guess I still think of this one as my flagship product :)

And for those of you interested, I've decided to run on a 3 story cycle for my other projects.

Meaning: Jubal-Barbara Scott-Mr. Nibs and Mouse.

Rock Star Makeover Question

Submitted by on

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

A question for those who have been following my story "Rock Star Makeover." The next chapter will have a bit of darkness in it, but I don't think I would be giving much away to say things work out in the following chapter. But that means I have a choice. I could put out the darker chapter on its own, and hope that you guys will not get too down until the next one comes, or I could put out both at once, so you can see the good bit without the wait. Any opinions?

Here is a neat web page done by a trans woman. I hate using that term but must because if I just called her a woman, as I call myself, you would think that she knew nothing.

http://www.secondtype.info/bodysize.htm

This highlights the struggle of larger T folk very well. I know that they can not change what is in their heads and they are stuck with a body that they feel considerable pain over. My only, heart felt, suggestion is to do the best you can.

It may seem a slightly odd question, but a new charity launched yesterday, called "Action for Happiness" (I kid you not - here's proof!).

Apparently, they've worked out that although average incomes have consistently risen over the past five decades, happiness hasn't.

To attempt to make us happier, they've published a list of fifty actions, most of which appear to be backed up by videos, text explaining why you should do it, and a bunch of resources.

Anybody who has followed my blog here probably can tell that I have, on occasion, struggled with negative self-talk. I'm starting to realize how much this has held me back. It becomes as self-fulfilling prophesy, where I make mistakes because I expect to make mistakes. Its not going to be easy to get rid of a habit that ingrained, but I have to, if I want to make any progress. So I'm asking everyone here to help keep my accountable. If I start whining and feeling sorry for myself, give me a boot in the back of the skirt, okay?

Quick question on cogiati

A stranger is happy at meeting you. He wants to give you a hug. How do you honestly feel about this?

It's kind of nice.

I would feel a little put off by it, frankly.

I like to hug. It's a warm feeling.

It might be OK.

That would be a little weird for me.

What exactly is this question supposed to prove anyway? For me it's utterly biased against me because I LIKE to hug people, but I have serious personal boundary issues because of a couple of incidents in my past, especially with men. Probably the best one was the computer repair guy...

I didn't want to do it, but right now there was only one person that could help Dave, and I wasn't that person. I looked down at Thor and whispered, "Well Thor, you have to help Dave, and he isn't going to be happy about it." Thor looked back up at me.

So, I was looking up more information regarding Ovotestis for the Jubal story and I came across some interesting facts.

Apparently, the condition is no longer called intersex, but is diagnosed as disorder of sexual development or DSD, with the aforementioned Ovotestis being OT-DSD.

Not sure how I personally feel about this, but I was able to glean more information that may hold some hope for Jubal, since apparently about two thirds of karyotype 46,XX have normal menstruation. . .

Sounds like a certain doctor might have jumped the gun thinking she would be sterile.

Judy, looking a little harried, answered "There was a big crash on the Interstate. They need me at work right away. Can you watch Ashley 'til Joe gets home? He should be home in a couple of hours."

"Ummm, sure. But doesn't Sarah usually do that?"

I am posting this, because I am curious on how you came up with your name. I will start by telling you how I came up with mine. Lesley is from one of my favorite female rock stars.

I liked it, plus it was the name of one of the girls I grew up with and liked and it to some how fit me. Charles is my male middle name. I kept as a link to my past.

I was so far into my work I had no idea how much time passed. The next time I was really aware of the outside world was when Gabbi, her mom, and Cathy came up to me. They were each carrying a couple of bags, and it looked like both Gabbi and her mom had taken the opportunity to get a new hairstyle and makeup. The effect on Gabbi was … electric, at least for me.

“Wow. Oh...wow.” Is all I could manage.

Checking for mail, I found the box empty as usual, I heard a voice. “Hey, little girl give us your money.”

Gabbi blushed, and her mom smiled.

We went to church, and it was pretty good. After it was over, I whispered to Gabbi “I think your mom is impressed by how everyone here is so cool with you.”

“Yeh, well, before I came here as Gabbi for the first time, I talked with the pastor.”

Well, today was an interesting day. First, I got a call from the local TS support group I belong to reminding me that there was a potluck dinner today. Trouble was, my brother and sister-in-law were also supposed to come over. I decided that since the potluck started at 430, and they were not supposed to come until 7, that i could go and still come back. But, I decided to leave a note for my mom that I was going to be coming home dressed as Dorothy, so if they had a problem with that, I could just skip showing up. But she phoned me to say they would not cause problems, so I came home.
