Well, it will be re-pubbed soon. Kindle sometimes takes a day or two.

If you've already bought this book, Kindle should allow you to update your copy with the new text.

If you haven't bought it yet, now's your chance! Uh, well, wait till tomorrow morning probably is best. There were only a few typos we fixed, so if you are okay with that go ahead. :)

Hugs,
Erin

It seems to me, that if comments are turned off then kudos should also be turned off at the same time. If they don't want reader feedback, then they should get none.

I noticed this in the "Did you know" section of the Wikipedia home page this morning. (It has now disappeared. Typical. I had to look in the archives.)

...that during a renovation of 4 Park Avenue workers found a sealed room with women's clothes and shoes that was not in the building's blueprints?

This is asking for a story to be written but I have no time to do it. Any takers out there?

For anybody who read this story straight after it was posted, I am sorry that the images did not come out. Please open it again.
I attached a pdf file in desperation, but I am grateful that with Rose's help, it is now up as I intended, with images in the text that inspired and really make this story.

Jacob Stone rode his bike off a mountain and into a new world...

There are two more parts to this story left to be published.

Hey everyone,

As much as I was hoping to have the new Apocalypse Dawn chapter posted yesterday or even today it doesn't look like that's gonna happen. Between being busy and just having a spectacularly shitty week in general I probably won't have AD posted until tomorrow and I Wish until Thursday. Hopefully my appointment downtown tomorrow won't take too long and I can get stuff finished and posted at a decent hour.

*big hugs*

I posted "Just being me." on a few other sites. The story is about a trans woman that waits until later in life to start transitioning and meets a man who accepts her for what and who she is.

I got two private messages today about the story. These were readers from Literotica.

One said

" I read several of your stories and wish I could find happiness as well. I'm still stuck in my life of discretion and confusion in some ways. I want someone to love me. I can definitely relate to her, in your story."

Or what i done this week.

"Oh." He looked thoughtful. "You gonna live?" he asked.

I posted my story "Immune Response" on Fictionmania yesterday.
I received a bunch of reviews / comments.
This one pleased me:
"Reviewed by Kirafair on 05/16/2022
"In case anyone is curious and since Maryanne put in a nice description at the beginning, an immune response to your own body components is an autoimmune type response and not technically an allergy. There could be some overlap in the observable aspects of the immune reaction that can lead to using the terms interchangeably

So I updated the chapter in question, here on BCTS.

I just realized, however, that the evidence in question wasn't discussed. At least not out loud. Bill and Sylvia had copied everything they had found and presumably highlighted certain sections.

Interestingly, one of the two in the office revealed something unexpected to me while I was writing the update, forcing me to update the next chapter as well. Sigh. This is what I get for letting my characters have a certain amount of autonomy, I suppose.

I decided to re-read EOF's stories but can't seem to access them. Did they go to Amazon or something?

Lately I'm having a sort of cognitive disconnect that is frightening. I've understood and grown accustomed to my rough drafts being embarrassing. Perhaps it would simply be easier to stroke out and die? Mostly I've enjoyed it despite the painful times. Thank you for being part of it. This is not a suicide note.

Gwen

a bright interlude!

well not much has happened!

I have now published my twelfth anthology of short stories on Amazon having published my first just a year ago. This is a series of books that my publisher has called “Mainly Happy Endings” because people who read me will know that I like my TG tales to be real and uplifting. Each book has its own themes and each book contains stories that have not been published online – other than as work-in-progress on my Patreon. 12 books and 192 stories in total.

I was reminded of this story after reading another 'Looking for a Story' post, in which the MC may be over weight, and I think Leslie Moore's "Copy. Cure." may have been the front runner

I just spent the last several hours reading and re-reading the list of author names but I just cant get Desiree and her story "The Bronze Maiden" out of my mind

Pete tries to consult a higher authority....

This is set early in the 2000s. A families Mother dies and the children's only living relatives are somewhere north. I think this story starts out in northern Florida or Georgia and they have to hike to somewhere on the middle east coast, or even Maine perhaps. It is a harrowing journey for them and that is all I can remember.

I'd like to read it again.

Thanks
Gwen
