I Write Like...

Submitted by on

Edeyn Okay, so I spend a lot of time on FaceBook, and many of my friends and relatives post memes {pronounced 'meem'} -- the little tests that tell you what character from movie X you are like, or what kind of bean you're like, or how many roads you must travel {42}, etc. I normally don't even give them thought, but a good friend of mine who is pretty much the embodiment of youthful exuberance even though she's approaching 30 posted a fantastically interesting one that I had to try.

More Outrage! Hospital ER Refuses to Treat a Transwoman

Submitted by on

That's right! Ball Memorial Hospital in Muncie, Indiana, (the birthplace of Knights of the Dinner Table and HackMaster -- a geek mecca) refused to treat Erin Vaught (who is legally female) who came to the ER with her wife and child to find out why she was coughing up blood!

Sometimes Wrong Numbers Are Fun!

Submitted by on

Edeyn Danielle J posted about a wrong number, and I immediately went to my blog and found this gem... it was too long to post as a comment, but just about right for a blog of my own.

Sk8r Grrls Ch 04 : Episode 04

Submitted by on


Sk8r Grrls - SURGE project, Episode 4! Okay, we're going to include the extra content as sub-chapters (check the outline on the right!) where there will be as many bits of extra content as the number of the chapter (for now) -- that is, chapter four will have four sub-chapters and chapter seven will have seven sub-chapters etc. up to the point where the plot splits, but for now I'm going to focus on getting the chapters actually out and to you all. This was the very first TG Fiction series by me. I hope folks enjoy reading it again -- or for the first time!

My mother's loot

Submitted by on

Edeyn Okay, so... my mother's birthday is usually in the 2 to 3 weeks around Mothers' Day. This year, it was exactly 2 weeks before.

I love my mother, and though she's sometimes ashamed to admit to me being her child (let alone daughter instead of son), I know she loves me. I mean, there's a LOT of reasons to be ashamed to admit being related to me...

Laughter works better than Prozac or Zoloft...

Submitted by on

Edeyn Okay, so I've had a rough week. I don't need to grouse more than I have, and steps are being taken -- no, I'm not suicidal... if that matters to you, thank my belovéd for providing me with a reason for living.

But I was so far down that I cried until I had no tears left. Literally. I mean, I was sobbing and wailing... but there were no tears left to come out. I exhausted my tear ducts. So... today, we (roommate and I) found a bunch of INANE but fun jokes on YouTube ... some are old, some aren't, some are horrible groaners, some are laugh until you can't breathe, some I had heard (or even told) before, and a some were brand new to me.

If at eleventh you don't succeed...

Submitted by on

Edeyn So... yeah. Some of you may remember a short story compilation involving TG situations that was soliciting stories, it was posted on here about a year ago, give or take... it was called, "Scheherazade's Façade" and you could enter as many potential pieces during the submission cycle (01 November, 2009 to 28 February, 2010) as you wished as long as each was a separate submission.

Panick Attack

Submitted by on

Edeyn So... the reason for the panick attack isn't really important. But. Last night I woke screaming and ended up rocking back and forth on my bed hugging my knees for about an hour... or five.

What I'm asking here, is if I'm the only one that has this problem. Am I? I mean, I'm able to handle things most times but I have little moments in my life and memory that are essentially me taking a brief vacation from sentience.

To those that hate series stories

Submitted by on

Edeyn You all know I love you, anyway. Heh. This is to those that like series, too, by the way. And yes, I will be getting back to more writing, on even my older stuff starting this week! School is finally giving me a bit of breathing room.

But! My latest offering, Aisling was thought of specifically with those that hate series in mind. It's a limited, or mini- series, if you will. It will be completed and in a relatively short amount of time. The title will let you know that it's finished when it is -- which will be ASAP!

The Coreys Cut in Twain Forevermore

Submitted by on

Edeyn Corey Haim found dead at 38, 11 March 2010...

Wow. I grew up watching the Coreys in just about everything. The Lost Boys. License to Drive. Dream A Little Dream.

... and of course the string of endless B (and C) flicks. It's kind of like a part of the 1980s just died for me. I know he grew up to be a drug addict, but... come on.

Experimental

Submitted by on

Edeyn Okay, just so folks know what's going on... My typing speed has slowed. Dramatically.

It's infuriating.

Anyway, I am still working on things, but I can type somewhere between half and 2/3 as fast as I used to be able to do. Faster than that is not even a possibility most of the time, and when it is a possibility, it hurts to do it. A lot. Like me cradling my arm and weeping uncontrollably for about an hour painful.

A bit of advice for authors

Submitted by on

Go through your story list, and make sure all of your one-shot, solo stories are marked as such!

When the update that allowed stories to be set as either series or solo was put on the site, the default setting is series. If you want your solo stories to be able to be grabbed by the "Five Random 5olos" feature (which is pretty awesome), then go through all your solo stories real quickly and make certain that that ARE marked as solos!

Plea for help from anyone in the Detroit / Port Huron area!

Submitted by on

My deadline for retrieving my belongings has been rather suddenly shortened from the end of January to MONDAY (December 28th, 2009) -- is there anyone in that area or close enough that would be willing to retrieve said belongings and store them for a month so I have time to mount an expedition?

PLEASE?!?

She leaned over my desk, her ample bosom heaving. The dame was obviously hot for me. Too bad I was only into other men... coulda been fun.

I hate this

Submitted by on

I have a wonderful girlfriend, but she's half a world away.

I just spent twenty minutes standing and crying in the living room in frustration at the pile of shit my life has become.

I really have no idea what to do now and it scares me.

The only reason I'm not still in the hospital is not having health insurance. If I had it, they would have kept me at least another week, but more if I had no one to help take care of me at home -- but I have neither insurance nor anyone to care for me.

Broken Battered Bleeding B-rater

Submitted by on

Okay. Last evening I got home from hospital. I really don't foresee any kind of issues functioning with this situation of my left arm in a cast and sling... except when I try to sleep.

So painful... Hard to position... argh.

I will be available on Skype (delayra.edeyn) if folks wanna hear what happened, and I'mm gonna try to resume stuff here and elsewhere online.

So...sleepy...
