Trying to remember story title

All i can remember is a particular scene

Written by Julie O
Protagonist Ally Burns (Assistant Director of the Agency. i think)

Ally has to deal with a problem at a regional office of the Internet crimes investigation office

the lead agent has lent agents and equipment to other agencies, as he (if i remember correctly) doesn't see the department has a use in the agency.

Also i think there is some resentment as he sees Ally as an affirmative action hire by the Agency.

If you need a good laugh

Then please do take a look at Jamie Hayworth's Susie and Jeffrey stories, they are a laugh a minute and a tribute to the theatre of the absurd. They do require a little work if you're not British, as the setting is very British, but it isn't all black pudding and flat caps. Also please go for a wee first or there is a danger you may have little accidents and don't eat or drink while reading them unless you have a wipe-clean screen, but do enjoy, they're really funny.

So... It's been a Hot Minute

Well hello there,

I know I've been a bit absent as of late and I do apologize. There for a while I thought I might drown amongst the tide of chaos, but I held on for dear life and have washed back on shore. There are a lot of details I WON'T get into, but suffice it to say there was a lot of drama in my personal life. There has also been a lot of positive change and progress made, I am now living as myself full time and in about half a month I will be hitting a full year on HRT! Wow, I can hardly believe that it's been that long!

Update

Hey everyone,

Just a quick update to let you all know that I'm still not feeling so great with this cold that's hanging on and the personal stuff but I have been trying to work on some writing when I have the energy. It's going a lot slower than I would like but I am hoping to get chapters posted this week even if they're a bit late. I'm going to try my best and I'm making slow progress on a chapter of Apocalypse Dawn so hopefully, I'll at least get that done. We'll see how it goes.

*big hugs to you all*

Attention: Readers of TG Fiction on Amazon

Here is a call for help.
I am not a reader of TG fiction on Amazon, but I am a writer, and I have been in touch with Amazon regarding the curious categorizations employed in the LGBTQ area.
So, we have the various categories for Kindle E-books including "Romance", "Teen and Young Adult" and "LGBTQ+". Romance and TYA have a subcategory of LGBTQ+. LGBTQ has subcategories including Romance, Literature & Fiction, Erotica, Science Fiction & Fantasy, Mystery & Detective, Biographies & Memoirs, Comics, Manga & Graphic Novels etc.

Writing Walker's Path Chapter 13

Hello out there,

A new episode of Writing Walker's Path has been released!

There's some talk of the future in this one and how Chapter 14 is going to be one of the last bad experiences for Walker. In general, I want Walker to come out of this with a good outlook and hopefully, I can outweigh the negative with positive.

Also Chapters 3-5 have been edited! I'll continue to edit these and hopefully get all of the little grammar bugs poking around.

Insomnia and Inspiration

While laying in bed in the middle of last night and not sleeping as one does, the muse decided to sprinkle her fairy dust upon my rest-deprived noggin. Thus came a realization that the new book currently under editing for its later chapters was missing a scene which, in the much-abused and paraphrased words of The Dude, really tied the book together. Where to wedge it in was even included in the moment of 'well-duh!'.

Southern accent?

A few weeks ago, I'd been in an online writer's group, and shared a chapter of one of my stories. One of the people in the group asked me why my character was talking with a Southern accent. Does anyone else who's read my stories see any accent like that? The only places I've lived have been New Jersey and California, so I'm really not sure where I might have picked up a Southern accent.

I need your help/opinion/ /thoughts/suggestions

Good Morning!

The last thing I published here was the beginning of a novel I was writing called Vacation.

Some of you read it, and I want your suggestions...

It needs a publishable title. Vacation is not going to cut it and I'm interested in hearing any suggestions you might think of.

The third part of the book is coming back from my editor soon, so it will appear within the month. That means that before I publish it to Amazon, I have to erase it here. So, if you want to see the first third of the book, read it here before it's removed.

Friday. New Walker's Path.

Hello out there,

I was right. It took another week to complete chapter 13.

I need to edit it today or tomorrow and then it should be ready for Friday.

While chapter 13 is fresh off the press (of my fingers on a keyboard) I can't help but mention that chapter 14 is already some of what I would consider my best work. I only started writing it today and I'm blown away at how well I am at expressing these particular emotions.

No spoilers, just know that I am really feeling chapter 14. Mostly because the emotions in it so far have been pent up in me.

Any Takers?

A few days ago, Doppler Press published How You Play the Game. It is the twenty-first book I’ve written that has been sold on Amazon.

I donate 100% of the proceeds to BC to support this site. Erin has said it has been quite a bit of money.

Last week, Erin messaged me about three of my books: Miss Recudes, Leight Wilde, and The Ninth Fold.

She asked if I had published them through someone else.

The middle bit of Light And Shadow is up! Halfway to the finish, wherein various things are indeed revealed!

Please do mind the trigger warnings though. There are a few darker subjects in this one.

Thanks to all who've been reading, can't wait to get the rest of this book posted! We're getting to the good stuff! ;)

Good Writers and Bad Business models

Every now and then I stumble across an author who makes me feel like the world’s biggest hack.

My spouse reads about three books a week. That’s how I “found” Sue Monk Kidd.

Kidd writes historical fiction. The first book I read of hers was “The Book of Longings.” It is the fictional autobiography of Jesus’ wife published in 2020.

Death Of A Princess...

I remember writing this story but did not know it was attached to a true story. Today, I met the uncle of the murdered Transgender teen. The assailant, a Bosnian man got 20 years. He tried to use the excuse that finding out was so upsetting to him that he lost his mind. Apparently, Washington State has passed a law that bars that as a defense.

No new Walker's Path this week (maybe)

Hello out there,

I released two chapters in four weeks. If I were to follow that pattern it would mean that tomorrow a new Walker's Path would come out.

While I am close to finishing the latest chapter its not quite complete.

To close out the next chapter I'm looking at them finishing breakfast and leaving the buffet.

As soon as I have that done (I'm close) I will be editing it and then releasing it. Hopefully that will be next Friday.

My Title Was Stolen!

I have to change the title of my next book.

For anyone who follows the BCTS Patreon, Erin's been posting chapters of a story I was writing -- Double Date Dare -- over there for quite a while. There was a hiatus for a bit, but I recently finished the story, and re-wrote it for publication through Doppler.

Except there's a problem.

See, since I started posting chapters of the story, *another* trans fic author -- of erotica, no less -- has used my beloved story title for a book of their own.

A few things:

Charli(e) Wilder Saga?

I left this, pretty discouraged by lack of feedback.

Charli has been accepted at an exclusive girls school as a transgender girl. But she is questioning whether she is really transgender. She is wondering how she can sample boyhood from the position she is in. She has a session of basketball and video games scheduled with a group of slightly older public schoolboys. But the boy who invited her doesn't know her transgender status and wants her as a girlfriend. Charlie wants him as a boyfriend.

slight delays

Hey everyone,

Just a quick note to let my readers know that because I had a busy couple of days and haven't had much energy while fighting this cold that Martin gave me, stories will be a bit delayed this week. I'm trying to finish the new chapter of Apocalypse Dawn for sometime tonight, but it may not be posted until tomorrow morning. Whether other chapters are late will depend on how fast I can catch up while I've got this cold dragging me down.

*big hugs*

The effect of words and their often disproportionate impact……..

Over the time I have been on this site I have seen many an author, reader, or simply a poor tortured soul who has expressed themselves either through their writing, or through a posted blog. I myself have found it useful at times to post something, using the site to express my frustrations with some aspect of my life or society in general - or crying out over some emotional issue which is tearing me apart.

RobertaME is okay and will stay that way.

We have PMed, me and Roberta and she is not thinking of anything silly or harmful to herself or others. I am not at liberty to disclose anything else about our communications, but there will likely be more to come.

She is VERY grateful for all the kind words expressed both in her blog and mine and wants to thank you all for your concern and good wishes.

more to come as it occurs.

open letter to RobertaME

In all my 74 years on this planet, I have insulted or hurt more people than I can count! But you know what? Fuck 'em if they can't take a joke or an insult!

Oh I know I'm an awful person...or...I WAS. The thing is, I don't, I CAN'T allow all those hurts and insults rule my life! If I did, I'd be in the same funk that has you tied up right now.

Heads I Lose

... Tails, you win. Damned if I do, damned if I don't. This post might spoil a little bit.

It's been over two months since my previous posting of "A Bikini Beach Late Summer". This is what I didn't want to happen. The alternative, unfortunately, had already happened: it had been years, and I hadn't come close to finishing the story.

Shattered

I am a horrible author.

...

That's all I hear in my head now. I feel compelled to write, to have others know my thoughts through stories I've crafted after hundreds of hours of research and writing... and re-writing... and editing... and then finally after 3 years of sitting on these stories, I let the people in my life convince me that they're actually good and that I'm an author and a good writer.

They were wrong.
