Chapter 2 of Portal Problems is up:

https://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/fiction/91394/portal-problems...

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.

but what is what?

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.

So after posting up four full-length novels and not getting much of anywhere with them in regards to readership or comments, I got told several times that people don't like stories posted in PDF format.

I find this attitude truly baffling!

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.

Something I'm working on...

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.

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.

I posted a short story on Literotica recently , or rather I tried . it was A Conversation with Mother - Secret Girl, I even took the part out where he asks his mother if he cut his extra bit off, would he be a girl.

So all innocent stuff, the sort you would have on a daytime TV discussion.

It got rejected as it sexualizes under 18's.

or is that forward to the past?

Part 3 of latest book posted! Thanks again to the help of a good friend who caught quite a few gooberisms with their final check-through. They had to suffer through with me sending many updates over the past week as I kept poking at it, even after I had said I was 'done'. I'll have to be better about that for the next one, lol.

Now to use the rest of this holiday weekend plowing through the text of Part 4!

Thanks to everyone who reads as always, and especially those who comment! Hope y'all enjoy!

I've resisted as long as I could, but the dark side has taken me -- I've started publishing my material on Amazon. It's a new thing so far with only Lifeswap available as a Kindle download (with a slight facelift -- the story is the same, but I've tweaked some of the bits I felt needed tweaking). The plan for the next few weeks (months?) is to do the same with some of the other stories I've posted here, making anthologies of the shorter works so each work will be 100k words or above, and making them available in digital or dead tree format.

Hello out there,

I warned you that something was coming this week. A new chapter of Walker's Path was just released!

In all seriousness, I love that you're all still following along with the story even though I don't post on a regular basis. I appreciate it.

In the meantime get hungry and have an eggy bite of delight that is Walker's Path.

Lots of love,
Katherine

I've sorta been writing a lot more dark in what I've been posting, and I'm kinda worrying I'm doing it a bit too much. Part of what I'm worried about is if I'm just telling people about stuff that hurts too much to hear. I've been sharing the kinda stuff I usually avoid reading. I really don't want to hurt anyone, and I'm wondering if I'm doing that by opening up too much. Even though it feels freeing to not keep stuff hidden, it's not worth it, if I'm hurting people. Is there a way of knowing when I've been sharing too much dark stuff?

I am looking for one more story that I read several years ago and enjoyed, even if was a little sadistic.
A sister is jealous that her brother gets to have extended curfew while she is restricted. She is frustrated with all of the privileges he has and so she hides her panties in his room and has her Mom accidentally find them.
She convinces her family that her brother wants to be a girl, even though he does not.

Hello out there,

You, yeah I'm talking to you. You've been good over the last two weeks. Me too. I've been writing.

You watch yourself because Friday there may or may not be something coming your way.

You've been warned.
Katherine

A bit ago it came to light that an author can request no comments be allowed on their story.
My general policy is if there are no comments, it means the story will not be read.
And if the lead in synopsis feels a bit sketchy or very vague, the story will be ignored.
An exception to that might happen if I am acquainted with the author's style from previous stories.
In years past, I have started reading a story only to find it wasn't something I wished to read for one reason or another.

Hello out there,

A friend of mine has been tearing through Walker's Path with suggestions and revisions. Slowly over the next week or so I'll be implementing the revisions I like and will change them here. I've already done the latest chapter (11) and chapters 1 and 2.

I'm also going to be changing the order in which people read the Intermission. It'll come out AFTER Chapter 10. I'll be changing the end of chapter 10 to be the beginning of Chapter 11. It's going to be the same content but in a slightly different order.
