Hi folks,

having to live in Germany made me very frightened since some days. Germany is going to be an unlawful country it already has been in Nazi-times and that with obvious best intentions.

Saw a post over on the tg fiction list that yahoo has announced they will be closing the geocities in the near future. I can believe it the way they seem to butcher everything thing they touch. If you know of any geocities sites with stories you like you may want to go save them off before they are lost. I hope the authors like Brandy DeWinter can find a place to house her great stories and wonderful art. I know there are a lot of story sites on geocities as well as personal sites for the girls. Good luck to all.

I found this somewhere (I think someone gave it to me)

Web.Archive.Org

I have and Idea for a new story about a boy who want's to wear once piece swimwear and utimatly all girls clothes. What I would like maybe one of you artists out there would be willing to draw a cartoon picture for the front page of the story. Adam is 13, short brown hair, 5'2" Blue eyes, slightly tan from going fishing with his dad. Let me know if you can help.

Oh yah, it must be tasteful.

Bet everyone thought I'd forgotten. :)

There were 19 entries in the contest and the winners were:

Well written article by GG on TG problems

If you've registered on their website, you can add comments

According to the counter at the bottom of the page, the numbers are fast approaching six million. While I'm aware half of them are me checking for comments on my stories, or Gabi and Holly trying to make them grammatical after I've posted them, it's still an awful lots of hits.

Congratulations to Erin and her team for making this, in my opinion, the best tg fiction site on the net; and thanks for all the hard work they put in to enable us to read and post our masterpieces, we don't know or appreciate the half of it.

Three cheers for the Top Shelf team, hip hip...

Often I read a story and don't comment. It's not that I don't like the story, it's more laziness on my part. I read the comments and too often someone has said what I wished that I would have said.

Ok, so my Fiancee's Father is in the hospital following a long and drawn out episode which started last thursday and might be ending today.

While cycling up The South Dorset Ridgeway on the A354, I got happy-slapped by a car diven by a youth with presumably his friend who did the slapping. Sadly, I didn't get the number, or a proper look at them being too busy struggling with the gradient and effects of gravity on my fat little body and bike laden with my work stuff.

I wasn't hurt, suffering only a light hit on the buttock, but it could have knocked me off or caused me to lose control of the bike and get myself run over: either way, I could have been badly injured.

I spent three freaking hours on the phone yesterday, Monday, going from City Clerk, to County Clerk, to Surrogate Court Clerk, to Superior Court Clerk, to Family Court clerk, trying to locate one lousy form that I need to complete my legal name change paperwork. It's called "in forma pauperis...in English, a poor person application.

It's time to reconfigure a few things on the pute, I was wondering how much space you set a side for works in progress and tales that look interesting enough to save on the side. Also is ms word ok to post onto the site or is there something easyer to deal with? Thinking of writing but not to thrilled with word. scthea

Yes, yes, we've already established that I am a horrible geek, but I still feel happy to be able to say that Oh, Cheers just recently passed the five thousand hits mark, with Boys of Summer 1-10 rapidly approaching the same number!

Angie Zapata was an 18 year old MtF pre-op TS who was killed by her 'boyfriend', beaten to death by him, supposedly when he 'discovered that she was a he. The'boyfriend' claimed that when he 'suddenly' found out that Angie wasn't what she seemed, he panicked, and beat her to death, probably to soothe his offended 'macho pride.'

I am not the author of this post. It's copied from a Veteran's TG forum.

I hate for this to turn into a range war, but Amazon seems to be getting pretty blatant about forming "Unholy Alliances". I am feeling pretty cranky right now. Here is the email that I sent them.

...and 22 is easily half done, with what isn't fleshed out is clearly defined.

Not long now, since the bits to follow are long ago written and need only touch ups.

Reported in Friday's Independent newspaper TG Body Swap series "Boy Meets Girl" on ITV1, starts May 1st.

Appearances can be deceiving.

I've been trying to find a way of presenting this in a way that doesn't leave me shaking in frustration and anger. I haven't been able to find one, so I'll just post the address the website:

Violet Ajah got packed away with the last move, for that I apologize, but I'll have 2-4 (and possibly 5) up by Monday night, midnight central.

The news of this has got to the UK, I attach link to The Guardian.

Someone told me that my latest story attempt was very disjointed, so can someone tell me what that means, and how I can correct that problem? How can I make my story join?

Well, all the hoopla about Amazon has accomplished something positive for me, at least. I found a great book that I'd like to recommend (I didn't buy it from Amazon - I downloaded it as an ebook from Fictionwise). It's entitled Luna, by Julie Anne Peters, and it was simply outstanding.

My Middle Son sent me this in an e-mail, and I thought you all would get aa kick out of it! Richard

A successful rancher died and left everything to his devoted wife.

Okay, then given the content and the responses from my last blog post, would it really screw things up if I re-wrote the story and changed Sissy and Mistress' names to something else? I think I can do it without messing the continuity of the stories up at all. Just a name shift.

Note, I'm not changing MY name. I earned the title "Maid" from my wife, and I'm very proud of that.

This was from Thursday night's Rachel Maddow show, I found it highly amusing especially when she is joined by

I am exhibiting almost all the signs of clinical depression. I've been highly emotional lately, and constantly sleepy. I've gained weight and can't seem to concentrate for very long. I can't seem to care very much about anything either.

She wants to put me on some type of anti-depressant meds, but I have a real problem with that kind of thing. I'm going to try to fight my way through this without meds, so if I get short with anyone, or vanish for awhile, please don't be concerned.

Thank you to all of you who have PM'd or commented on my work so far. In a way I've cheated, because I have simply revised and reposted all my stories that exist elsewhere on the web.

Every once in a while someone crosses the line. Maybe it's because I'm sick or I'm tired or I'm annoyed about something else.

If anyone sent emails, including ones with stories attached, any time during the last two or three months, please send them again. My email save file got corrupted and I've lost a bunch of emails and no way of knowing which ones I lost because I don't have them to count them.

I hate this sort of thing. My redundant backup turns out to be incomplete so that was no save.

Please, if you sent anything important to [email protected] in the last 90 days or so, send it again.

Hugs,
Erin

This is a HUGE step forward. If I wasn't committed to be here, I think I would move to New Hampshire.

A Dermatologist has prescribed Propecia to prevent Male Pattern Hair loss. Does any Post Op have experience with this?

Hi Everyone,

For all those wondering about the Final Chapters of my Kate Draffen story I am writing this to ease your collective mind- It will be finished!

As i promised last month i've got a sapecial offer running again, just for Easter - well until i return from Germany on April 22nd!

I just happened to notice there was 229 people on the site just a moment ago. Wouldn't have known it by how fast BC/TS is running!!

KUDOS to Erin and Bob!!!

What's the record BTW?

Hugs

Its no good, I have to admit it. I have been torturing myself for ages now. I wake up at night in a cold sweat. I'm sure that others have admitted to themselves and I admire them for doing so.

Maiden by Decree got a bit delayed because Phoebe (my muse) decided this new story was the one to play with. On Wings of Shadow is about dark fairies, transformations, and things like that. I will be alternating between this new one and Maiden, though. As the muse allows.

Crud.....

Can I just skip this part and flesh out the stuff I already have figured out? It's the End for goddess' sakes!

Hi everyone. I'm at work today and a little while ago a nurses aide came up to me and told me that a patient that she was moving a short time before had seen me and had thought that I was a girl. I love it. I guess that Growing my hair out and getting my ears pierced is starting to payoff.

Makes a girl feel good doesn't it

Today I got sent home early by my boss at work 'cause I'm sick. I had to call in Tuesday night for the same reason. Since it started, I've seemed to run the gamut of symptoms from stomach trouble to sinus problems to lord knows what else. Yesterday wasn't as bad as Tuesday thankfully- I could function well enough to clean my apartment- but today was just weird. I have officially moved into that strange yet somewhat happy spot where my entire body is sore and I'm dizzy for no apparent reason, yet my brain chemistry is wonky enough I feel a bit detached from it all.

I am having difficulty deciding which pronouns to use.

Anyone remember the Exploitation blog?

It's now emergency levels.

She wants me out by tonight... told me at 7am. 17 hours to find somewhere and get the f*** out. Well, less than 14 ½ now.

I'm working, I'm working!

Hi all would love some advice

This time with twins. Takes all sorts I suppose, I try not to be judgemental, but I do wonder about the motives for these stories.

I am repeating an offer I made earlier which I misaddressed. I run an editing business at www.write-it-better.com and I would like to offer free editing to authors on bc/ts in thanks for my reading enjoyment. People who want editing can go to my web site and send me a story. (I did an edit on Song of Corazon for Maggie Finson and she was pleased with the work.

Anyone a fan of Ru Paul's Drag Race? I've discovered it and am watching it on TV right now. It's a show that I'm not sure I like.

I so miss you and our talks, whacky though they may have gotten. I'm concerned about you, and I just want to make sure you're okay, and that we're still friends. You know you're still responsible for me, don't you? An old Chinese belief is that if you save someone's life, you are responsible for them for always.

At least let me know that you're okay and that you haven't forgotten about the old Drama Queen, Cathy_t_?

huggles 'n love from,
Catherine Linda Michel
