Doubly Enthusiastic

Please excuse my youthful exuberance in commenting twice on the same story; it was exquisite, though, wasn't it? Also, I added some things and edited some things in my latest chapter of Providence - The Valley to make it more cohesive and read better, I hope. My apologies to those who have already read the piece, and thank you so much for supporting me not only through my literary endeavors but my health problems as well.

Jaycee’s grandmother (Joan Curry) worked for Viewtech for almost 25 years. Many of us vividly recall Joan’s relentless efforts to recover Jaycee. Many, both here and at Volt Information Sciences (our former parent company), helped Joan produce and distribute flyers and posters following the kidnapping and for many years thereafter.

Ear Bug Warning?

Ear Bug warning?

Now, I don't want to seem too paranoid on this and I know that there is no proof yet. I recently got one of those Cell Phone Ear Bug thingies, and I just love it. Today, I went to lunch with a girlfriend who got one much before I did.

At breakfast, she saw my Bug and told me that she did not think it was good to wear it all the time because hers caused earaches. I said ok but left mine in but just a few minutes ago, I developed an ear ache.

Feminizer Disease Takes My Body Over - Chapter 14

My wife said, "Terri, you will be my best girlfriend and do exactly what I say, won't you sweetie? You know I like those bullet bras and the frilly Southern Belle dresses. I really want you to wear them every day, they show off your pretty figure so beautifully." I thought the mind therapy tape sessions must really be controlling my brain, but I did not care. I loved the 50's looks, bullet bras, tight girdles, nylons, and those high heels. That was all I could think of.

I have made offensive comments and I am deeply sorry

I'm not exactly sure what I said because the blog entry was depublished and I did not save it on my own machine.

In any case, apparently I have offended people and I apologize for this.

Specifically, I apologize to Kristina and Angharad.

I am sorry, I did not mean to be offensive.

I would be more specific, but I'm not sure exactly how I offended.

I will no longer darken your doors.

I abase myself, beg your forgiveness, every other way I can think of to say that I am truly sorry and I hope you can overlook my intolerable rudeness.

Encounter at the store

Sean walked into the store, nervous about her bicycle. There wasn’t anyplace outside the store to tie it to, so she was left with nervously watching her bike through the window while she stood in a line at least 20 people long. She fretted while the line proceeded slowly toward the counter. Just as she was about 5 people from the front of the line, a guy just walked into the line in front of her. She was completely dumbfounded and had no idea what to say to him, but after about five minutes of nervously eyeing her bike through the window, she decided she had to say something.

Strange Days

Admin Note: Sephrena I have disabled commenting because this thread is spiralling towards argument. It's best to leave this be and agree that some cannot agree on this issue.
 
 
Sometimes, I kinda doubt my femininity. I mean, I grew up with images of women who were just as strong as the men they loved, but to be honest, I think I’d have to call myself a Warrior woman if I’m any sort of woman at all. Think Red Sonja, except more militantly feminist.

I suppose today at the dollar store would be a perfect example of what I mean.

Days go by...

I have been having the itch to write for a few months but nothing really gelled in my mind.

I have gone back to school and I have my GPA up to over a 3.7. I am trying very hard to get a *real* job instead of the dead-end mistake I have now.

So, since I am home recovering from a UTI I decided to start hashing something out.

Working Relations is just a springboard to get into a good story. The transgender aspects fall in later.

A Broken Life - Part 1

A Broken Life
 
Part 1
 
By Wargamerguy

Some times the events that occur during our childhood can have major affects on us as adults. Some of those events if tragic enough can have disastrous affects on all aspects of our life as adults. This is one story of a man trying to put his life back together as an adult. This is of course, fictional but the reality is there are many adults trying.

Karen had been very patient with her husband Jacob for their seven years of marriage. She knew that he still didn't entirely trust her with their six year old son and that frustrated her. She felt like he was afraid she would hurt him and he was so extremely protective of the child. His protective nature kicked into high gear when women were around. She wasn't sure how much longer she could endure his endless questioning any time she was alone with him.

Ranma 1/2 is owned by Takahashi Rumiko and they have no connection to this what so ever. These characters are used without their permission and include a plea not to be sued as I have no money.

New story coming soon...I hope!

I've just posted the title page for a new story I'm working on. I know, I know, what about the other ones that have been languishing? Well, I'm still trying to get to them, too. Venus Cursed! is taking up more time than I anticipated, especially since I've got two side stories going now! I'm not abandoning POWYHL or KittyHawk, really! I'll try to alternate or something and get something out on each over the next few months. I can't promise anything, of course, but I will try!

Not finished yet....

HI all. I know at least a couple of people are waiting patiently for Unfinished Business part 5...It is in work and should be ready soon. I've been doing some research for it (which is taking a bit longer than I thought) and will be posting it very soon, but I'm not certain when. I have run into a snag with the story that I didn't anticipate and it is causing me to regroup and think about the way to go.

I've also brushed off some stories I started long ago and will be posting them soon as well as continuing sagas.

Kisses,
Brianna

The Prodigal

----------=BigCloset Retro Classic!=----------
and Christmas Special!

It's Christmas time, and the holiday season is bittersweet for Paul and Debbie Noland. Seven years ago their son disappeared without a trace, and they found their faith shaken to its very core. Christmas is the Season of Miracles, however, and when a young woman named Breegan comes into their lives they find joy, celebration and a miracle of their very own.

I'm away for a week commencing 25th September. I'll be abroad - Menorca again, and I don't think my dongle will work there, so I won't be posting for a week.

I've done a new episode of Whatever Next, my Gaby fanfic, which I have to finish editing. I hope to get that to Maddy over the weekend but with her computer problems, I can't say when it'll be posted.

Hugs,

Not enough conflict?

When I started reading TG stories on the web many years ago every story I read was interesting since I had never read stories with TG protagonists before. Finally someone I could identify with who was dealing with things that mattered to me.

After a decade or so this identification is still important so I still read TG stories but now the story has to provide something beyond the mere basics - the tropes of TG fiction such as self-discovery, the process of acquiring the clothes and paraphernalia, the salon experience, the shopping trip, the talk with the parents, the visit to the shrink... You know the list.

I now believe that in order to please long-time readers such as myself there are three main ways to make a TG story interesting.

The Continentals--Mystery, adventure--And cross dressing

I didn't know quite where to put this, but I wanted to tell you guys about my new webcomic "The Continentals". It's for the folks who like a little murder, mystery, and adventure with their cross dressing steam punky webcomics. Here's the plot:

1889. Barely a year after the mysterious Jack the Rippers murderous rampage and equally mysterious disappearance the city of Mansfordshire, England is shaken by a series of brutal "mangling" murders that plunge the city into an abyss of fear.

That part of the human strane that raised 'it' ,were known as the overcommer. A people whos toughness out lasted other humanbeings and to earn them the title of overcommer. The family of overcommers wanted a girl as they had 40 sons and no daughters to date. After having more babies they had no baby girl yet. The part we observe about overcommers is hope ever abounds next to having babies.

Edeyn ... really is as shining and wonderful amidst a sea of horribleness, like I used to believe. You see, I LOVE the area I grew up in. I knew all the towns around it were rather intolerant and backwards, and... for a long time, I told myself that my hometown was different. Then... well, I decided I needed to stop fooling myself. I had been more than severely abused by my family in that town. I had been everyone's favorite target for bullying -- to use Ms. Allread's term, I was the town "Plague" there... and had been convincing myself that it was a great place anyway.

The remaining brothers watched as their mother sat in the parlor. She was weeping as she held a family photo. Seated in the photo, she was surrounded by her four sons, four sons not the three that were in attendance; an attendance required by the death and burial of their father. As she looked longingly at the picture she thought ‘If only I had listened.’

Mille Grazie!!!!!!

Good News Bad News Good News. First, the Good News: Essential usually means "Gotta have it," but in my case it means Essential or Familial Tremors, which apparently is what I have. My difficult morning was not a surprise to the doctor, who explained that the more stressed I got from the initial tremors, the more it exacerbated the tremors. I've been prescribed another medication that is expected to be of immediate help and eventually mitigate the condition, but I also dealing with some sleep issues which we'll be dealing with as well. Second, the Bad News: It doesn't go away.

One of the hardest things I've ever had to do,

I had to do last weekend. I must digress.

For the last 20 or so years of my life, I've been in with a bunch of guys who I loved like brothers. We've been there for one another and they are all great guys. I felt privileged to have been accepted by them as a friend. Almost every weekend we'd do stuff together...movies, RPG gaming, cards, trips to Buffalo to a place called The Super Flea, and much more.

The Journey is the Destination
Chapter 9

By poetheather

Ryoga is clearly upset and Ranma is at a loss for how to respond. Nabiki is sneaking around some more, trying to get to the bottom of this and only ice cream can save the day.

Ups and downs with apologies!

Being somewhat Bipolar (still being ruled in or out by doc) I have my moments. As you may have read from the previous few days, I can be glib and witty, or sardonic, and I apologize for my swings. Today I am devastated. I took a job for which I am vastly overqualified since I have been out of work for four years. I haven't been able to return to counseling as a career for a variety of reasons, and I have expressed my fear on more than one occasion that I may never get back.

‘Come on, children,’ I said taking my eyes away from Adrian’s rather strange look, ‘let’s go in.’

I followed Dawn who had gone charging ahead with children who had run in after her. I could hear Adrian behind me. I didn’t want to look at him. I was confused and did not know how to take the look that he had given me.
