Constant Breaches of Copyright and the Remedy

This is what I just posted on Fictionmania Message Board under the title "What are we going to do about it?" in response to the latest list of stolen TG stories"

Doom Valley Prep School Update

After a long break due to family tragedy and other things, I've spent the last few months getting back into old stories and things, specifically Whateley, on their Discord and website.
While I was doing that people kept talking about Doom Valley Prep School, and sent me some of the blogs here talking about the story.

You're My Wife Now - Surprised

My latest story - You're My Wife Now, as surprised me by getting oover 80 kudos on here. That's for part 2. Usually my forced fem and sex stories don't get much more than 50.

I understand this, as this is a TG story site the idea of anyone "forced" to act or dress as a woman goes "against the grain". Many of us the problem is being forced by society to live and dress as a male.

Please bare with me, as it developes it will include TG elements.

I reached a milestone yesterday

I reached a milestone yesterday, with my 100th story on Fictionmania. I have more on here as I did a follow up to BeverlyTaff's FQ story. I will never put that anywhere else as it would make little sense without the source story.

TBH it is not the sort of story that would go down well there as the "forced fem" is incidental and not the main story. I do miss that story arc. I'm enjoying her new scifi one though.

Trying to find time to write

Hi friends,

I haven't been on here in a while and I haven't posted any updates to one of my stories which is "The life of Riley". My apologies. I will continue this story but I am not sure when. Life sometimes throws you curve balls and I got my fair share of them. The story is in my heart and I will finish it.

Sorry if I disappointed anyone! I am doing my best, so please be forgiving. I have to resolve my personal issues and then I think I will be able to write again. Hang in there, people. Riley will come back.

Thank you for your patience.

Love,

Two Spirit

I first became aware of the idea of Two Spirit, reading a story here by "Teddie" (Not the LGBT one) but the one that has been with the Native Americans for a very long time. Remembering past conversations and incidents with my family, it seemed clear that I am from a branch of the Shawnee. Yesterday, it was surprising to find that my Counsellor at OHSU Teaching University brought it up and said that Native American Two Spirit is well recognized in her circles.

Not all Stories have such Structure

Here is one for my writing pals, from something posted on FM MB, probably to scold me for writing pieces that do not conform.
Structure of a Story.jpg
Well, what I did there was "Fiction" rather than "a story", but it occurs to me that very little of what I write conforms with this pattern.

Kindle Prolific Plagiarizer

I saw a new author on kindle Isabella Emma with over 703 stories most around 500 pages all posted this year. The cover pages and summary are all half-assed, they are all tg fiction.
Authors name is Isabella Emma
Some authors might want to look at some of these stories

The Law of Reciprocity

“The reciprocity principle is one of the basic laws of social psychology: It says that in many social situations we pay back what we received from others. In other words, if John does you a favor, you're likely to return it to him.”

I have noticed over the three decades I’ve been posting stories that a large share of those who leave comments on my stories are authors.

Perhaps they leave comments because I leave comments on their stories.

It's a Small World

Not accusing anyone of anything.

With Covid and weak health, I spent just lots of time reading here, on YouTube and other sharing services.

Years ago, I remember Joseph Campbell sayin that there are only a few different stories to tell. Lately I am seeing undeniable confirmation of that. Often I'll be reading a story or watching a movie and I'll remember seeing a scene or hearing a line from somewhere else, especially with things that come from Hollywood.

Odd That

Comments, No Comments

Call me a praise slut if you like, but I live for comments.
I am even happy to receive harsh criticism, like I get over on Fictionmania!
The latest hater has at least shifted his acid throwing to Message Board over there, but they seem to be a driven individual!
I am just assuming that everybody here at my warm and friendly place, must be overcome by heatstroke with barely enough energy to read my stories but too exhausted to comment (?)

MRI -- I hate 'em!

Well, a little while back, I went to get an MRI on my brain. The site of the tumor I had removed about 3 years ago.

Talked to my neurosurgeon yesterday, and there's no new growth of the remain of the tumor. Just a little bit of thickening in the dura (the membrane that surrounds the brain) where the tumor was.

I hate having to get an MRI. A cat scan is fine, but the tube you go into in an MRI is so stinking tiny! Ugh!

How to emoji

How can I add emojis to a story?

It turns out that it is the only way of expressing emotions in the modern world.

Seriously, though: I've got some text messages in a story, and an emoji or two would not be out of place.

thanks,

Over the weekend I was horrified to find that Susan Brown's Football Girl 1&2 and Changes are no longer listed on Amazon\Kindle. (UK)

While this isn't an issue for me as I have those books, I was looking for a friend, on both their KINDLE device, smartphone kindle app and Laptop

Is Susan alright?

I ask only as last time this happened to me was when "The Last of the Fey" dropped from Amazon\Kindle lists, while Denise's estate was being taken care of.

The opening salvo (parts 1-4) to my original "A Bikini Beach Summer" just recently surpassed 10000 hits. It's still a distant second to "John's Living Nightmare" at 14500. Similarly, my standalone BB story, "BB: A Boy's Visit" has broken through 6000 hits.

"The Bridge" might hit 3000 sometime this year; I don't know.

Dungeons and Dragons

It seems obvious to me that some of the stories here were driven by the game "Dungeons and Dragons", though I have had relatively little exposure to it. Some of the scenes in "Stranger Things" are really triggering because of my unwilling exposure to the psychological world and their drugs. Life has been much better since I told them to "F" off. One of the characters, Finn Walthard looks really feminine, If I have the right one. If I had a chance I would do much worse to the psychs than EL.

Story Set in RW

Character is Bar tender (MC i think), at a Variety Bar, NightClub or a club like Tanya Allan's "Candy Cane Club"

Older Gentleman regular customer of the Character as he likes the ever expanding range of cocktails can make, and if i remember correctly that character can make for the mood of the customer

Two things get reviled later the Older Gentleman is real owner of venue, and father of its operator, and the character reads a board sheet that has a section on cocktails within the entertainment section in the weekend editions.

Tired and Cranky, with a headache that won't quit

Going through various health issues, I have come to the conclusion that my hot buttons are wearing out and getting easier to smash. Major one for today has been and will always be at the top of my list every time: Nod your head for yes and shake your head for no, not the the other way around. this is almost universal I have found, but years ago a Bulgarian friend informed me after we met that her country was reversed in that action and meaning. Who knew?

A Personal Thank You

I hate ‘I’ messages, because it’s not all about me.

This is all about the readers and the engineers who keep this big ship sailing.

You have warmly embraced Invisible with your reading, kudos, and comments as I upload each section of this effort. I’ve often said I write my stories in isolation because that’s me. But, when I upload a story and pull back the curtains, it amazes me how generously people take the time to look over the offering.

Looking for a story..

about a school for magic. The twists are:
- the school is specifically for evil villains and magicians
- the teenaged protagonist has no magic and no wish to be a villain, and is sure he will die quickly at the school, but is parents are proud of their lineage of alumni, and make him go.

What Is Intersex?

In the early 2000's I remember reading articles on the Internet about the studies on Gender and Intersex done by some researchers in Scandinavia. They started a revolution of rampant speculation. I don't think that there are experts who have a firm handle on things. Some of the most significant progress in that and associated fields happened in the 20th Century. As a matter of personal opinion, I don't think that we actually know as much as we think we do.

Having doubts about some writing

Hi! I don’t know if this is the right place for this but here goes. So I’m having some doubt about some writing I’m doing. I usually write one shot short stories, but I’m interested in trying my hand at writing longer stuff.

After writing the first chapter, I guess I feel like it has some issues, and I was wondering if anyone would want to test read it and give some feedback? The chapter is about 3151 words long.

I’m worried about the pacing, like if I spent too much time on certain plot points. Also wondering if I take too long to get to the transformation.

Funny Business At Amazon

Lots of excitement in my life just now. I've been cautiously thinking about how I might De-transition, and what good that would do? It might cause a lot of harm by making my housing situation and income uncertain. I rather enjoy not having to deal with men as a man. I don't want to lose that. My Breasts aren't that large, but I do not wish to try to pee standing up, even with my little camping funnel.

I'm new to writing here, but not new to writing.... if that makes a whole heck of a lot of sense.

I've always loved this area, but I've mainly been lurking here since I was 17 or so a few years ago. However a great friend and artist of mine finally pushed me off my tiny hiney to get my stuff out there into the real world.

Amazon Categories

What is up with Amazon? Why can't they get my books into the right category?
I posted something on the FM message board today by way of a gripe and it forced me to look at the last 7 of the 13 books published by Doppler Press on Amazon and none of those are classed as Transgender Fiction!

writing prompt

Here is a little writing prompt for anybody who wants it:

I walked up to the door, and knocked. A young man answered, and he asked, "Can I help you."

I replied "I'm here to kill you."

There was a pause, and then the young man opened the door, saying "Well, you better come in, then."

There you go, folks, have fun!
