My thanks to PEGLEG for help with proofing

Philippa Stewart, international Movie Star and mother of two, looks back at her life.

She has cleared the first couple of hurdles, that of the legal question as to who she is and the medical question of what gender she is. Academic really, but she told the doctor that she has no interest in finding out why it happened, as long as she doesn’t change back.

Now she waits for the police to close the case, as long as her fingerprints match those taken by the police from her room at home and the school she left in a hurry.

Her mother is on the verge of a breakdown and her father is insisting she continue her education. She has yet to meet her family and friends as Philippa, and what about poor old Thor?

But what does she want to do?

Yet again, she feels that others are pressing her to do things to fit in with their plans for her, and not letting her choose her own destiny.

Find out what happens.... read on....

Something that really annoys me (and I know it will annoy many of you) is to be reading an enjoyable story that is never finished.

I plead guilty to doing just that... too often for my own liking, so I apologise to all who desperately want me to finish several of my stories.

I make no excuses, as I just get carried away with too many new ideas.

The Suspect

A short story by Tanya Allan
(originally published in Issue 37 of TRANSLIVING MAGIZINE. It had to be short, due to the restricted space in the magazine)

Copyright 2012 Tanya J. Allan

By all accounts, John Granger is a fit and healthy man, a meticulous graphic designer in a good job. He has an attractive and bubbly girlfriend called Samantha, whom is well liked by the neighbours. On the death of his mother, he inherits the family home, so has everything going for him.

He is reported missing, believed murdered. The only suspect is his girlfriend.

Dreamer: Book 2. Part 8

By Tanya Allan

This part Copyright © 2012

As this section is new, written in response to the many comments left, (for which I thank you) I will endeavour to maintain a similar style, albeit from a different perspective. To be honest, I have no idea where this is going or how long it will take me to get there. Bearing in mind that I started this section yesterday, and I do have many other projects that need completing, I cannot promise to produce this much each day.

Introducing Philippa Stewart, international Movie Star and mother of two, as she looks back at her life.

Flashing back to that day she was reunited with her parents, this chapter deals with her struggle to be verified by the medical profession, the law and her parents.

Just because she's now a girl, will anything really change?

How will those who knew Philip deal with her?

Find out.... read on....

Once again, my thanks to PEGLEG for catching my mistakes.

Firstly let me apologise for seeming to commit a type of blackmail in order to extract some response through the comments system.

However, I genuinely did not know whether to continue with DREAMER, as it finishes in a place that might seem appropriate. Her life is all ahead of her, and although I agree, there is mileage in the various challenges she will face, they are relatively ordinary and the sort of thing that everyone could face.

I am truly humbled by the amount of comments and the passion displayed in some of the responses.

Pippa has come to a crucial crossroads in her life. Forced by a feeling that if she doesn't contact her parents, then her life may well revert to the way things were, she has to make some tough decisions. Her boyfriend is also an issue, and circumstances force her to tell him more than she intended.

Follow her as she makes decisions that could mean disaster or something else.

Does she make the right decisions?

Dreamer: Part 6

By Tanya Allan
Original Version Copyright © 1972
Revised version Copyright © 2012

Philip Coates is seventeen and convinced that he is not only trapped in a boarding school for boys, but also trapped in the wrong body. He spends most of his time lost in a world of his imagination. In this world he is the girl he always wanted to be. The girl who screams at him to set her free in every minute of every waking hour, and most of the sleeping ones as well.

Trapped in a social square hole, he becomes simply what everyone - parents, friends, teachers - want and expect him to be. He knows that he wants to be a round peg, but will, in reality, never make it.

Well, he wakes up one morning convinced that his dream might just be coming true.. or is it?

The signs are there, but then again, are there other explanations for what he is going through?

After a rough few days, the girl is set free.

The future is now gloriously uncertain and fresh, as she sets out on a journey, turning her back on her school, her friends and her old home.....

........or is it?

What’s Happy about it?

Author’s note: As those of you who are always good enough to read my offerings (and some of you even better for paying for them :) you will know that most of my work relates to nice people often placed in adverse circumstances. My trademark is goodness, justice and mercy prevails, or at least just enough to give us a happy ending. This time I have tried something different, with not so pleasant people in, well, I suppose the only description could be shitty circumstances.

Does it have a happy ending?

Read it and judge for yourselves (assuming more than one person reads it, that is.)

Please note, the dialogue is undertaken in a Scottish accent, so please bear that in mind and dinna (EXAMPLE) pick me up for spelling and grammar, as I’ve tried to write phonetically where appropriate.

The Tramp

A Short Christmas Story by Tanya Allan

I first wrote this in 2007, but thought it would be appropriate to submit it here for you at this festive time. This is the first Sunday in Advent, so my prayer for you all is that your wishes come true... eventually!

It was the night before Christmas, Andy was kneeling on the end of his bed with the curtains open; his nose pressed against the windowpane. It was snowing, so he was watching the view from his bedroom window transform itself from the usual vista of fields and hedgerows into a white paradise.

Hi

I am having a bit of a break, so am away from my home for a while. I have recently posted Whispers in the Mind onto Kindle, but will not remove it from those few places you can see it for free.

Hi

What a week! Been writing so much that my fingers are bleeding... not quite, but almost. Have amost finished MARINE Book 1, just waiting on my Muse for a cracking ending that grabs people and makes them want the next book so badly... so perhaps a week or two to get it just right. I've just had another light bulb moment for a new book, so we'll have to wait and see. I have a week away with the family soon, so may get a chance to do some more writing.

Managed to get another title.. TWISTED DREAMS.. onto Kindle with slight revisions, but it is still on my site and here for free.
