David Weber is a Sci-fi writer who in one of his recent books have some TG elements. "Off Armageddons Reef" is a far future story of a colony that has lost technology. Here is a link to the interview where that book is discussed. http://www.scifi.com/sfw/interviews/sfw15625.html

Tonight on ABC's Home Makeover show there was a cute scene that I couldn't resist passing on. It was the usual needy family in a fix and the design team was interviewing family members on the type of themed bedroom they would like. Well there was this cute set of 4 year old twin boys and one said he wanted to be a fireman. The other with a big smile said he wanted to be a policewoman. The double takes from Paul and Preston as they digested this was priceless, but Paul playing along said he wanted to be a policewoman too. Preston then asked "How about a policeMan?" and the kid nodded happily.
Hello Everyone! I'm blogging here because I was concerned that the Comments for my Deal or No Deal Story was getting a little off tropic but I decided that I did have more to say.
Hello everyone! I have finally posted my entry for StarDust's contest. You can find it of course at StarDust! Strange Happenings in Ragnorak County was my third try at a entry since the first two started going way way over 10K words. Many thanks to Holly Logan, H.E.R, Paula, and special thanks to Angel for their help. Enjoy!
Hugs!

Taralynn's Desk now has Chapter 3 of "Crew Shift" posted. Shamelessly I point out that I helped out on the artwork, but she did the "inking" of the sickbay scene! Taralynn has a site worth visiting and features her stories Raven and Crew Shift. The link is at http://taralynn.sincomics.com/.
Today I went to professional author Wen Spencers Blog located at http://wen-spencer.livejournal.com/69789.html to look for an article about how to go about getting your writing published. Her Blog has some really good information, because she detailed her own struggle. Todays entry was good for it talked about her and her husband playing on-line games. The funny part was Wen was playing a male character and her husband playing a female. People was making the mistake that he really was female and he couldn't convince them otherwise! A case of virtual TG? LOL!
I have enjoyed the wonderful stories presented here for Erin's Christmas Contest! The new writers, myself among them, have posted some very good and heartwarming tales. It's going to be very tough for the judges to make a ruling on these because they are all good.
Today, I found that comic-book artist Dave Cockrum had passed away. As an comic and X-Man fan, I'll miss him. Dave created or help create many of my favorite X-men characters: Night Crawler, Mystique, Storm, and many others.
