From the tastefully named Amy's Winehouse in Sunderland city centre comes this marketing gem.

Five years and 21 hours, according to the counter. I'm sure I didn't register at midnight BST, so I think I'll take the hours figure with a pinch of salt :)

Yo Gabfen!

I started on BigCloset a short time ago and love a good story
I like sci fi, horror, adventure, magic stories if anyone could suggest a good story to read Thank you

Just wondering how Elizabeth Jean is doing I know she comments on stories and blogs but I was just wondering if she was doing ok because she has not posted a new chapter to any of her stories since November of 2012.

I hope nothing bad has happened to her or anyone has said anything hurtful to her.

Too hot, too tired, too many family issues and drama at the moment.
Sorry.

So there I was, wandering about the suburbs of an English city when, lo and behold, I see a sign on a pub that makes me laugh. Of course I could not resist going in, order a pint, and toast Lady Katherine Trent, the heroine of my 'The World Turned Upside Down.'

This will last in the U S until 20 January 2017 or longer, depending on who gets elected president in 2016:

Forget the Get Rich Quick idea. Don't believe in If You Build it They Will Come fantasy. Selling a story is a business. You want to start a restaurant so you find a really "CHEAP" barn to lease. You refurbish it, put all the equipment in it, hire help, and..., wait for customers who never show. (Kinda kin to posting on Amazon)

Definitely enjoying the game. Like it better than Halo and the flow of combat just feels smoother than Halo.

Heck the story so far is more interesting than Halo imo.

Hi folks, after such touching commentaries concerning Seven years of Bike (perhaps we could get John Williams to do the soundtrack?)I hate to say I probably won't write one tonight. Been a bit of a busy day driving up to Wales to take my ex to Cardiff to buy a new suite, cooking lunch for her(my suggestion)and then going to see my daughter and doing a ride with her in the afternoon. She's still not back to her old self so I really appreciated her giving her time and energy to indulge me a ride. Then driving back and sorting out two rapacious moggies.

I appreciate I am a few days late, but 'Bike' or as it should be called 'Easy as falling off a Bike' is Seven years old.

Angharad started an attempt to write a story 'over a few days' live to the site, as an experiment, on the 16th July 2007.

Native Oklahoman and Hollywood great James Garner has passed away at the age of 86. My first memory of him is on the TV show "Maverick" (which he hated), and he went on to become one of the most versatile male leads in Hollywood, able to move from TV shows to movies and back. He was always proud of being from Oklahoma, and its impossible for me to come up with even a partial list of all the things he did to benefit the people and the State of Oklahoma.

They don't make them like this anymore, and that's our loss. RIP Jim, we're gonna miss you.

So for the last few months been riding my one relatives old road bike in the hopes of getting into better fitness I have been riding about 35 miles or so every other day. The issue is that it is a old bike where the shifters are in shitty spot and there is no way to tell when you are going into a near gear until you get into it. Also my rear break is shot the cable leading to it is snapped. I am currently without work so cannot get it fixed or a new one which would be my goal.

I've just found a delightful piece in the current BBC News Magazine on the work of a fellow who is collecting words that describe geographic phenomenon. The concept is wonderful and I think, important. The photos are lovely and the language enthralling. Have a look if you'd like. Words are so enchanting. http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-27780066

This has been a painful year so far

Questions at the end, but have fun reading through this.

My weeks been a rollercoaster of thrills and feels.

Saw this on a carers forum in the UK:

ONLY A MAN WOULD ATTEMPT THIS

Just try reading this without laughing till you cry!!!

Pocket Tazer Stun Gun, a great gift for the wife.

So, we had a few nasty thunderstorms recently. Well 3 days ago me and my dad where sitting on the couch debating politics when our house is struc by lightening. The lights went crazy and it was really loud when it struck. I nearly peed my pants and jumped up from the couch and ran out onto the front porch :3. Well everything is on surge protectors except for one thing.... the magical internet box( the router) so it got fried and I was without internet for like 3 days, it was terrible!

Am I the only one living in 2014 two years into the future? Don't pull me back to 2012 yet, I'm fixing to make a killing in the precious metals and stock markets. By the time 2014 gets here you can call me your Highness Majesty Royal Fluff or maybe just Hey You.

Look at the comments posted dates on "Assassin". I was tripping along in my own little world and had a lucid moment when something didn't seem right. So being the ditz that I am, I honestly had to double check to make sure I was Back to the Future reading a story posted and commented on in 2012.

I last wrote two years ago about my quest for my ex partner to pay maintenance for our daughter, who lives solely with me. In the past two years several calls have been made to the Child Support Agency but the situation remains the same. Today's call confirmed that there are no employment/tax records nor current benefits claims, so she has no liability to pay until one of these conditions is met.

Marvel has just announced they will be distributing a female Thor title in their main universe.

Thor-Girl anyone?

some of you know about the prayers I ask for back in February, for my wife well she just got out of the hospital again. As it stands now she on dialysis 3x a week. just thought you like to know.

I've just published "Human Resources" which first appeared on BCTS in 2011 as "Martha". There's been a major edit/revision of the original text. I'm not sure which of my stories will get the edit treatment next, perhaps even a new one? I'm afraid Eve & Tammy will have to wait a while, especially if there are any new chapters in the pipeline.

I saw this article in the Huffington Post.

Rule 63: "For any given male character, there is a female version of that character."

Back in the Eighties, there was a bit by Billy Crystal where he played a character called "Fernando". He even made a music video as the character called "You look Mahavalous" . In it there is a line where he says "If you look good, you feel good."

Well, I guess he was on to something, because today for counseling, I've chosen to wear a dark blue skirt and a light blue striped top,a necklace with blue stones, and a set of earrings, and I actually feel better because I think I look better.

Well, with Jaci seemingly done with writing, I think the Jaci-Dottie stories is going to come to a halt. I had an idea for a half-story of Dottie's view of her 14th birthday with Jaci doing the other half, but without her, the story (and the universe) have just no snap to them. Not that I'm done writing, I've submitted a piece for the next "TG Mix tapes" collection, and I'm working on a couple of ideas, but I'll miss visiting my younger alter-ego.

Ah, well.

It's 28 years ago today that I officially started my transition and went into work in a grey two piece. In some ways it feels much less than that and in others, it seems centuries ago. During that time I've lost some good friends and also my mother and my aunt, who were both supportive of my decision.

OK, now imagine if doing this instead of animals, padded hips and butt, and somehow breasts.

The scientific community keeps getting closer and closer to a certifiable explanation to our conditions.

I was watching part of a Dr. Who episode and wondered what actors could have played Dr. Who. My favorite past Doctor was Davidson.

My list:

WolfJess7 was posting stories multiple times a week and all of a sudden nothing from her not even responses to comments on her last story she posted.

The few people who follow me and care no that for the longest time I have struggled with where my body of work falls in the large scope of things. I have often felt on an island, alone (or with few others around doing the same thing). For some reason, I thrive on being defined in a group because I think that gives me direction and parameters to work under. It could also give me sources where I could see what worked for others and what hasn't.

Well, something happened yesterday that's got me concerned.

Have you ever wondered how to make your good story even better? Have you considered the part that minor characters play in the overall reading enjoyment of your story?

Well this is it, the last one for awhile, permissions have been given where necessary and Vagrants is now up on Kindle; the last little bird has left the nest, hopefully to fly very free.

So right now I am working on a summer romance story for the Interlude Press Summer Love Anthology. I am really hoping I get it done and that it makes the cut. The main character is trans and is very much like the kind of characters I write, searching for something, trying to make sense of everything... you know, the usual. If Interlude Press passes on the story I am probably going to throw it this way, because I am sure everyone here will like it.

I decided last night to re-establish myself with BC-TS and everyone here. What I am thinking of doing is to dust off some of my old stories, re-edit them into better English, and re-post them. That is not a quick process as I have over 250,000 words across several series of stories to tackle.

For anyone who had my email address, it hasn't changed (as a certain lady from Oz has confirmed)

On the recommendation of a friend... Also kudos to anyone who knows where the response to the title, "It will have to come out!" comes from...

I would like all my friends to know that 41 years ago today I married my bride TRISSA at the age of 19 . We have 2 boys that we are very proud of and 41 years married only 9 more for the GOLD

Hi everyone, just a note to thank all my readers and especially the ones who purchased the novel from Amazon. I guess you notice that I've been posting one part everyday, today being the first installment of part one of Angola. There are two more parts to Angola and then three to the final part of the story, part eight. The reason I'm posting this blog is that I have to travel to LA {Los Angeles} for those of you that live in Rio Linda, this Thursday. What this means is that Angola will be posted and the final three parts will be posted starting Monday when I return.

As I mentioned the other day, I was given a lot of clothes for my birthday, and as a result spent some time this morning trying stuff on, and going through my closet seeing what I could get rid of.
