There are many very accomplished writers who have posted works here in years past; however, their works languish under layers of dust, and are relegated to the seldom accessed stacks. Our membership has increased greatly over recent years, and tastes of the readership have changed quite a bit. The stories with a few exceptions are leaning towards themes that are reflected in younger society in general. Vampires, gothic adventure, super heros seem to dominate the contributions.

I just posted the last Chapter of Odyssey III

For the few people who hit it quickly, I accidentally reposted Chapter 13. Upon realizing my error I quickly corrected my blooper.

I hope you enjoy Krista's latest!

Thanks

As I performed my normal look over at Fictionmania for what stories and chapters were new today I noted that Danielle J and/or Elrod W posted MAU - Rules and Author's Notes in which they give the backstory, the rules, and some FAQs about the Morphic Adaptation Units, Mark V, for the MAU universe, along with some final notes about 'reserved' characters.

I am Bob Arnold's Niece...it has been almost a year since he has been gone and it seems like only yesterday i was getting advice from him about my laptop....he would be so upset with me right now for being off the computer for all most a year but it was so hard for me to even get on and look at anything he did or helped with. I am still healing and I am getting better....I thought I would just drop in here and let everyone know that the family is glad that his site is still up and going and that ppl still know and speak of him.

Well, yesterday was a bit of a mixed day. First, I went to my daughter's grad, and it went really well, which was the good part of the day. Best of all, I wore female clothes, (abet very androgynous ones), and didnt have an issue with my ex or my daughter.

The better happened about halfway through my shift - Some of you might remember me blogging a couple of years back while I was working for Zellers about working in the Health and Beauty section, and getting depressed looking at the pretty women on the boxes.

This is a study detailing the unequal access to medical and other resources by the aging trans population. As is noted in the link, it is a pdf file and has some substance to it.

Well, the latest page is up, I hope that you enjoy it, if you do or you have anything constructive to say please leave a comment, I don't know if I am making a mess of things or not otherwise :).
Here is a link to the latest episode.

Enjoy!

Okay. A news story this morning has me wondering, nay, in fact astounded!

It seems that there is a forest fire somewhere in the U.S. Not unusual, right? However! the report stated that some aircraft which were involved in fighting the fire were grounded because of METEORS in the sky, which would have endangered the aircraft!

Is this the beginning of some subtle invasion from "out there" somewhere... the beginning of the raprture again? The harbinger of the forecasted end of the world on Dec 21st?

WTF?!?!?!

METEORS interrupting the battle against a forest fire??

This one is from the Gaby Bond universe and is a fan fic. All I recall is that Gabby/Drew meets a kid who is handicapped and in a wheelchair. Near the end he takes the kid for a ride with him. Which one was it

Sorry for the late posting of the story... had some issues, as Terpsi took a vacation in the middle of things. That was very annoying. And then there was checking to see if some things were okay with the PTB which in all honesty only took a day so no worries there. I should be able to get the next Kit and Kin out sooner. So, sorry folks, it was not my intention to have this big a gap between postings.

Another book 8 chapter is posted, Book 3 2nd Edition will hopefully be available later today and i've just finished the second stanza of book 10! phew!

It would all be going quicker if i had a reliable internet connection!

My muse has really been working hard lately. I do have the beginning and the closing for part 5 the final chapter done for this story, but I'm still working on the middle, which is a very important part for the progression to the end. I'll get it right though and when I do I'll post it without delay.

As I grow at the wordsmyth-ing racket, I find it fun, even entertaining to use words that the reader must pull out their Dyctionary to sus out the meaning.

Well, using Google Chrome, I think that they have a spell checker running that analyses everything I pen. Lately, I do notice that their spell checker seems less and less able.

Has anyone noticed this. Is Google deliberately dumming down, or is it simply due to the fact that there is a huge influx of young employees who have no respect for the trade?

There are two legal maters that I am dealing with right now; one is a case against me and one is a case against people who stole from me. I got updates on both and figured I would share them. As you can gather, with all the stress I am under, I really haven't had the mental energy to continue writing and I apologize for that. I will continue the cure as soon as possible, but I wouldn't be able to tell you when.

Some readers of my stories on BCTS have asked that they be converted to ebook formats for Kindle, iPads, and so on. I'm touched that they like the stories so much that they want permanent copies on their ereaders!

My plan was to price them at the minimum, 99 cents, since you've read them already. However, Amazon will only the minimum price to be $2.99, but all

This is to let everyone know why "...never a Bride" has not had another chapter yet. Mostly it's because I haven't written it yet, but let me continue.

My wife and I love video games. She is a big gamer from way back, and I've just spent way too much time playing.

That being said, the works of BioWare seem to have fit a perfect nitch for us, in that it allows me the FPS light that I really enjoy (the Uncharted series is one of my favories) and gives her the ability to "pick the choices" which she loves as well.

Well, every once in a while when writing a story, I write myself into a corner, and dont know how to get out. The last "Understanding Rachel" is a good example. I wanted to show why Rachel needs Tanya as much as Tanya needs Rachel, but in the process I didnt leave Tels a lot to work with in terms of saving them both. So she decided to lob the ball back into my court instead of the smash I was expecting, and now I'm running toward the net trying to save the point. Now its up to me to see if I can salvage this storyline, if its possible, and if anybody still cares about it.

Ah, well.

I received some disturbing news this morning and would appreciate it if you could take a moment and turn your thoughts towards Douglas R. Howe and send healing energy, white light and prayers his way? we aren't positive and are awaiting tests but he needs your strength against possible lung cancer... thank you all

For those wondering I am trying to get another chapter out. John has given me stuff to work with but my muse is being stubborn. Also real life exhaustion doesn't leave me with much.

Earlier today I got notification from the editor who I've been working with (partially successfully)to edit my story 'Down the Rabbit Hole' that she no longer wanted to be the editor because we reached an impasse-she didn't understand the universe I was writing for and was saying stuff I had written was inane. Sadly, that kind of editor is the kind I need. Also what is sad is that after over 2 months we were still editing part 1 of a 5 part story. For those waiting for the next part, I have it written (and up thru the end of that story) but they are in a 'rough draft' kind of phase.

In my latest chapter of Covered Bridges... LoneWolf put in a comment about the story with a totally wonderful YouTube link that really in my opinion adds to the story and lends such a feel.

Thank you once more LoneWolf:)
Please check it out it's a pretty cool thing.

My Familiar & best Friend ShadowFax had to be put to sleep Yesterday.I have had her since she was a Kitten & I was 14 yr's old at the time & I am now 25 yr's old.So u can tell how heart broken I am right now.She was there when one of my ex-boyfriend beat the shit out of me when he found out the real reason why I wouldn't put out to him when I turn 17 yr's old.She will be missed.Rest In Peace My Friend!

The weirdest thing happened and it might be one for the record books.

I was having some stomach discomfort the last few days and was feeling really sick. Normally I don't go to the doctor's office but things were getting really bad and I decided I better get checked up before I keel over and die.

After a few test I discovered that I was seven months pregnant, and here I was thinking that I was just getting fatter. I don't know how it happened... I mean, I have a penis and everything still.

Life for Barbie and Ken?

Hello,

Today is the Queen’s official birthday, and as usual we have the Birthday honours list. What may be surprising is that amongst those recognised is April Ashley

I was shown an interesting article from The Oatmeal, for those who don't know, the oatmeal is written and drawn by Matt Inman and he makes cartoons, some really crude and crass, but most of them funny. Well People take these and post them all over like with the lol cat pages. Last year, Mr. Inman contected a website, Funnyjunk and asked them to remove his copyrighted material. http://theoatmeal.com/blog/funnyjunk they also have stuff from Calvin and Hobbes, The Farside and other comics from the internet.

Some people here know my background and many people probably don't. Because it is a matter of public record, I have no problem divulging information. Due to circumstances out of my control, I was arrested back in 2003 and in order to escape 650 years of prison I took a plea deal. Part of that deal requires me to register as a sex offender (which makes my life oh so joyful).

Anyway. I did my time, I finished probation, have been gainfully employed, own a house, have 2 cars, am owned by 2 cats and I thought life would just continue on this way until I died.

Settling on a name

Normally I don't have this problem. I'll generally pick a name and be satisfied with it, at least when I first chose it. Sometimes when a character evolves beyond the way in which I original envisioned I will change his/her name.

After seeing several posts by Extravagance, I began to wonder... are there any more catfolk on Big closet? Being a catgirl myself, I also am curious if there are any other catgirls, or catboys on the site too? Or who are interested in talking with other cat furries.

Please note this isn't a dating add, I'm happily taken by my soulmate but just am curious if there are any other cat furries on this site that'd like to make some friends mew. Not to exclude anyone who isn't a furry or specifically a cat furry, I'm just curious is all meow ;3

Brief synopses:

John is shot interfering with a carjacking. His wife, Krista and her two sisters give him some of their life force to save him. It worked and makes him female and genetically their sisters. The three original sisters are from a parallel universe. In one section they travel back to the other Earth.

Ranting in the comments on someone else's post is not a friendly act. If you have some subject about which you feel strongly enough to post a rant, please do so at a site where ranting is allowed. It's not allowed here.

Finally after 9 weeks the cast has come off my right arm .The good thing is it was a good diet plan as I could not get a spoon or fork to my mouth & I learned how to shave with my left hand.Now I am off to take a nice long shower and get all the dead skin off the arm & get it wet for the first time in over 2 months
HUGS & KISSES TO ALL MY BCTS FRIENDS -- RICHIE2

Wow have I really been here THAT long? :) I recently was asked a question and I had to go check. How many stories have I written. The answer is a little vague, but this is me after all. More than 50 not including two novels. The sad part is I probably have at least as many incomplete sitting in a stack of notebooks and my hard drive. I do hope to complete them someday, but I'm dependent on the fickleness of muses. I'm also not as functional as I would like which is a sore point with me since I'm not nearly as challenged as many here.

June 13th 2005 my mother died from cancer, at home in her sleep.

Though she was in a bad way the day before she was able to carry on an intelligent conversation with our former neighbor -- a childhood friend of mine -- and his wife.

Her death is what encoursged me to become active here as an outlet for my feelings.

Still makes me cry thinking of this active lovely woman all but helpless as the cancer took away her ability to move.

And the punch line to the question, how many years does it tale the Nwy York/San Fransico Giants to win an Perfect Game?

126.

Tomorrow's Wishful Thinking update will also include the colour version of last weeks update and the new page, hopefully in colour.
