So, I have basically just COMPLETELY outed myself to my mum, by accident. How? You may ask. She had just come round to drop off a few things, unannounced. She then stated that she was dying to pee (to hide the fact that she wanted to inspect my flat, of which she has no right). So I let her past the door to go. The first thing she saw was my loungeroom's mess to which she said "oh my god" and I replied "ha, it's about to get much worse". She then delivered another "Oh My God" with a lot more.....honesty.

Where in the world is K-Jo anyone over in the UK know where she is or heard from her? Just to know she is OK & work is keeping her busy.

Some people have been wondering where I've been. So it seems only fair I should tell them.

Just to ease everyone's mind, I hadn't been sucked into the Bermuda Triangle, nor had I been abducted by aliens who force-fed me Cheez-Its while making me watch episodes of "Real Housewives of New Jersey." And, as should be obvious by the presence of this blog entry, I certainly haven't died. Though if I had, and I still managed to produce a blog entry, that would give a whole new meaning to the term "ghost writer." (Slight pause while everyone groans.)

chapter of Book 9 is now posted.

Just by way of a coincidence I am writing the equivalent chapter of book 11 as I post this so look out for the concluding part of the book on Lulu in the next week!

I had a little interaction with Stanman over the past years & he and I had some laughs about the post from EOF about the mmorfg or what ever you call the interactive games you play on the internet .

For those that haven't noticed, there is now a nice dedication to Stan in the memorials. Thanks Erin!

Well I'm finally out of the hospital for the third time this year :)
All three times were for depression, I just wanted to ask if there were any others who can relate here?

I just finished re-reading an oldie I wanted to mention. It is called The Suit by LJ over on FM.

The end of book 9 is fast approaching! What trouble can Drew or Gaby get into now?

(Today anyway). It doesn't really feel like I've started the backside of the Half century mark. You think anyone would notice if I started counting back through the forties instead? (LOL). Well in case anyone hasn't figure out what I'm ramblin' about, I've turned 51 today! I know I know, to some of you out there I'm still a young whippersnapper, But seriously there are many days I just don't feel "This young!" LOL. Big Hugs to all, Taarpa

Hi all,

For All in USA. Have Happy and Safe 4th of JULY Day on Thursday and lots Fireworks to enjoy, too! And those where all the fires are at - Hope your Safe and get thru too without too much lost except memories!

In a recent blog you mentioned re-reading an older story. That reminded me of what a marvelous repository of excellent fiction we have here at Big Closet. Erin and the other Admins. are to be thanked for what they have provided here.

I often read stories that are many years on the site. But, you know, they're all new when you read them for the first time. I like to thank the author by signing in and giving a Kudos for each chapter: It takes little time and effort and gives them a thank you for their work.

It's my time again. I am trying to find a story called Being Beautiful or The Importance of Being Beautiful. Author unknown. I know I had copies of it but it's gone now. I think it was on FM, but I can't locate it. If any of you other old people out there have a copy, let me know. It was in two parts, the second part was not as good as the first. The storyline was simple. A guy bets his sister in law she can't make him woman enough to enter a beauty contest for impersonaters, and she wins of course, so she gets to make him beautiful and makes him request it.

Okay, for once things are going sort of to plan, part 3 of Wunderkind is available now!

Hi all,

just a heads-up that I have now posted a second map in the Anmar Map Repository.
This one goes all the up to, but doesn't QUITE reach, Blackstone.

I hope it all helps.

Enjoy.

Di.

Does anyone know what happened to the author Hypatia? There is suppose to be a 3rd section to her story "kingdom of the Blind". Can anyone help?

Hello everybody

I think it is time that I tell a little bit about myself.
