I _believe_ both of these stories are from Fictionmania. At least, they were.

1) boy is body swapped by a witch. end of story is mainly in the woods, where the 'new' boy realizes that she has no powers anymore, as she's locked into the boy's body. This is not the version that has adults in it, they're definitely teens.

This is simply a thought, and it might be more work than the admins and moderators wish to take upon themselves.

After re-reading several older stories, it occurred to me that with many of the authors that have ceased to post, their status is unknown for most people.

Might it not help to add a line to authors pages to give whatever information was last known about them? Active authors, of course, could do something similar. "As of 11/14/1776, I'll be going dark to pursue my goal as a crab fisherman in Maui."

Netbooks - free.

Reiterating a previous offer.

I have three netbooks running Raspbian Linux. They're not the fastest, and I don't know about the strength of the batteries, but they all run, and should stay running for a while.

Their screens are larger than a phone, so anyone who needs a 'home' machine for basic web browsing and documents, let me know.

Continental US, preferably, unless you assist with shipping.

I have at least, one, and possibly up to three netbooks. Right now, I have one fully function and ready to go, and I have to locate the other two or three I should have and get them working.

What I'm thinking is this: For those people who have to try to write on tablets or their phones, something even as basic as an older netbook could help enormously. They'll work with phone/tablet hotspots, have a full keyboard, and can be connected to USB devices.

Bad codes for Kindle/etc posts.

I think I've figured out why I've been so bothered about the constant posts for things 'for sale'.

It's not actually that they're being posted for sale. It's that they aren't actually using the codes that are _supposed_ to be there on the front page. I've found myself, more than once, thinking that it's an update, and finding out it's another "HEY, DOPPLER" or "KINDLE BOOK". - but it says 'SOLO' or 'Day Of The Week' instead.

At the top of the page -

Interesting political summary, post election.

Just to keep things on an even keel - this is written about the Donald Trump campaign (and the man), but it is by someone who supported Clinton. This is pretty darned apolitical, but is good information to keep on hand.

Mind you, in a few spots, I'm using 'apolitical' in the "Irish Neutral" sense, meaning attack EVERYONE equally.

I've reread some of Sylverdyne's stuff, and realized it's been about five years since there was much activity. Dragon and Tiger, Jet and Quartz (etc)

So, anyone heard from him/her lately? Still alive, at least?

Just a caution. I had several people read this before I submitted it for posting - it's not a traditional horror story, but rather a strike at the core of a hope. It is horrible.
