Remember, Pride shouldn't be for just a day, a week, or even a month.

It should be all year, every year.

You should never feel ashamed for who you are.

*hugs to all*

I finished earlier than usual, so you get Chapter 41 now, instead of tomorrow! YAY!

This has nothing to do with TG fiction and may anger some people but having written it I had to do something with it

An update for those wondering where I am...

Yes, a surprise to me too!

I have talked here about an idea I had for this, my 10th anniversary year - having a character jump from one story universe to another.

Unfortunately, my muse isnt sending me anything to flesh the idea out, and instead I've been working on some sequels - one for the story "Sing a healing song", a new Jaci and Dottie story, and a story set in the "E-Girl" universe that will focus on the villains.

So I'm shelving the story jumping idea, at least for now.

I was browsing another site that has some active forms when I came across this link.

Until around 2011 or 12 there was an author here named Sarah Carrera, I think. She wrote stories about a t girl that lived in the Sacramento, Ca. area, had a band, or sang and did none performance in the Red Rock Amphitheater in Colorado. It may have been that she was eventually discovered to have girl parts?

I think that in private emails, she told me that she was going on a 2 year Mormon Mission, so she dropped out of sight. She did not resurface after her mission, at least not using the same name.

It took 6 months but I finally finished chapter 7 of The Puppeteer. First time that's ever happened. Why; you ask. Ok. picture this. You're painting a whole room and stop when you realize you've literally painted yourself into the opposite corner. Unfortunately you just HAPPEN to be wearing your precious iced pink satin Valentino ballgown and 1100 dollar(made to fit only you) Dalco pumps. Ok, just have to wait for the paint to dry, finish up and walk out, right? Wrong. the paint dries to the wrong shade and the floor turns out to be warped enough to show with that hideous color!

Hi everyone.

As some of you may have seen,the newest installment of my story Pushing the Limits is now up for your viewing pleasure. Please, please please take a look and tell me what you think. If you haven't read the first four parts of the story, go ahead and catch up on them now, though, otherwise it won't make sense.

To the people who care about me: I'm sorry. See, caring about someone is always risky. There is a chance you will get hurt by them. I'm not just talking about being disappointed, or betrayed, but hurt because the person you care about is hurting. So if you care about me, you've been hurt when I have hurt, and I'm sorry. And I'm afraid the hurting isnt over. See, I've been, so to speak writing checks my body cant cash for a long time, and it looks like nature is going to collect. And therefore I can see a lot of hurt in my future.

I'm having a tough day, but to explain it you guys need to understand something about how my PTSD works. Its not just my rapes that are stuck in flashback mode, or even just my rapes and the abuse I suffered at the hands of my stepfather. Its EVERYTHING. The time I slammed the door on my brother's fingers to the time I ripped my pants at work to ... well the list is endless.

Needless to say, it sucks.

I normally don't do this but I was wondering if some of you could do me a favor. I mean, I hate to ask, but could I get some reviews on Texas Belles on Amazon? I'm not sure what's going on, but I haven't gotten a single one and it's been posted for over a week. Someone told me they posted a review but Amazon rejected it without reason. So I'm curious if Amazon is just not allowing reviews for that story. On Goodreads, there's been a review and several positive rankings.

Well new post up about the twins and the years after Whateley.

but in this one chapter...we have a guest author show up and who is that strange girl!?????

SO glad to see Grover back online and posting stories to boot! Welcome back my sister.

Now... unless I missed something, what the heck happened to John in Wauwatosa? He used to be a regular commenter here and had a very well developed sense of humor. He was always, as far as I know, welcome as a commenter and even contributed to a couple of stories as far as I know.

He is accused of killing three women, one of them a transgender woman who had been beaten by a mob earlier this month. The other two women he killed are not two more murdered transgendered women the police are looking into

Just wanted to say that Andrea DiMaggio is my hero. She took time out of her own grief to send me notes of encouragement when I was having a tough day. You rock, my friend.

It's 90 degrees Fahrenheit here in
Washoe Valley east of the Sierra and I'm in Heaven!
We had a good wet winter and everything's green + blooming
and beautiful with an unusual amount of critters running around;
as if nature went nuts and decided to go for broke this year.

Too bad fire season starts next week.

No, not Robby Williams warbling but the new Gaby chapter.

What a week it's been !!!

I saw a Doctor today that actually knew what XXY folk could be like, and seemed to understand!!! He even confirmed that folk like me are often born with both sets of accessories, and felt that often the wrong organs were removed at birth. "ODDLY", back then, Doctors preferred to remove the girl stuff and would do almost anything to save the boy junk!!! It was nice to have that confirmation. Validation. :)

There may be a delay in posting the next part of "Why Would She". I'm writing this using my phone connection as the B&B where I'm staying at the moment has really bad internet and I'm only 5 miles from Inverness.
Off to Ullapool today and another B&B. It might be Wednesday evening before I get a decent line speed.

Everyone has probably notice that Angela's Legacy has been lagging behind and I have a few reasons. First and foremost, I want to point out that for a group of readers that claim to hate forced fem, Chapter 1, which was nothing but torture porn and forced fem has gotten a LOT of views. 3300 or so. What the hell, guys?

The road grows longer from when first started

Step by step

Mile by mile

Hand in hand to be walked

Together

Alone

Joined

Met

Today

Tomorrow

Night by night

Day by Day

The road continues never ceasing

Others joined as did I

Others wait

Their turn will come

The road continues

When its left

Leading

Twisting

No matter who steps off

Just as I will

Just as you

One day

For the road is always

Stretching beyond

new poem up! https://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/fiction/79574/haunted

I need some help with Oregon region. I've been toiling with this particular story for a while now and I want to be fairly accurate with it. I've been known to write as vague as possible when it comes to the region I place my stories. I generally just put them in a fictional town in the area where I live. The thing is, I like variety too. This current one I'm writing takes place in a fictional town in Oregon. The problem is that I don't know ANYTHING about the area. Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.

Okay, so for the last while, I've been sharing stories at a writing group every two weeks, and last night I shared part 2 of a story called "Six forty-five" (which you can find here: https://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/book/34885/six-forty-five ) and it went over well. So I came home to look at part 3, and ... I dont know. I'm seriously lacking confidence in it.

If anybody wants to look at it, and see if its better than my brain is telling me, that would cool ...

So. The %^#%$!@#$@%$#^$ higher ups in my company have been quite demanding lately, so we have been doing double-time, even triple-time, trying to finish a *%#$$%%$^^%#@$ status report for them, which is due in 13 hours...

Anywhoo...

Because of this, I didn't have time to finish the latest chapter of Shepherd Moon, and will not be posted tonight. Soweee!

BUT!

Hi.

I was reading a blog here in the Big Closet, titled "Fan Fiction." (see https://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/blog-entry/79528/fan-fiction )

I was interested in the topic because I knew something about it because it's part of the work that I do, and I thought I could pick up something that may be useful at work next time I have to deal with the same thing again. And, besides, I have several fanfiction stories here.

Anyway, though I am not a lawyer, I've been fielding questions and issues relating DCMA, derivative works and Fair Use for a while now. So I have a fairly substantial knowledge about it, IMHO.

So I thought I'd share what I know about fanfiction and Fair Use (I know my facts are backstopped, but feel free to verify the things I say here if you want - I won't mind, though I ask that, if you disagree, that we not fight or argue, okay? Let's be civil).

The last few days I've been occasionally getting "Error 503 Service Unavailable" mesages when I change pages. The issue seems to be getting more frequent. Is this likely an issue on your end, in the middle somewhere, or on my end?

I've just viewed a movie that I thought had a lovely premise but suffered from weak science, poor film editing, and recovered only about half the costs in the box office. "The Space Between Us".

I do so want to write a Fanfiction story that rounds the story out, but the more I look at doing it the more sinister the penalties seem.

I think I see quite a lot of it here that is Fanfiction based on video games.

I wonder how the authors stay out of trouble?

When I moved in to my brother and sister-in-law's basement, one of the things I agreed to was to take over the outside chores - mostly snow shoveling and lawn care.

At that time the thing I worried about was that my mental health issues would make doing these jobs tough.

I never dreamed how fast my physical health would deteriorate.

I never imagined that there would be a time when being out working for an hour would be a serious challenge.

I honestly dont know how long I can keep up to my promise, or what happens when I cant anymore.

sighs ...

I have a desktop again! And a job! And the two are related!

Okay, so as I've shared here before I've been trying to make something akin to a work from home situation work for me for a while. I've been trying to find indie devs interested in some of my music work, and I've had a couple of jobs lined up, but the death of my computer a couple of months ago almost killed that opportunity for me.

Until I re-negotiated one of my contracts.

I don't know how this article from almost two years ago happened to get shared by a friend on facebook. It is from June 21, 2017 and fit in nicely with some of the themes here. https://www.indy100.com/article/shorts-dress-man-twitter-sen...

for the first time in a while, I had a nightmare last night. It wasnt related to my rapes, but I'm still having trouble getting myself grounded, and today I have stuff to do that I cant put off. hugs appreciated.

Well, sorry to say this, but I went on a trip this weekend and I neglected to pack the charger for my laptop and also neglected to charge it before leaving. I do not have access to any of my files. Consequently, there will be no Virtually Twisted this weekend. I'll make it up next week by posting two parts.

In Jan, I fell and broke my hip. My memory is very short, So I did it again. Yep it hurts, but I can still function, and will. keep on doing so.

I apologize for the delay in Chapter 21. As often seems the case, important aniversaries seem to collect events... The Aniversary was the date my beloved passed, which messed with my muse. Around this time also sprang, however, non-life threatening but distracting medical issues which had me spending time in the Emergency Room! It seems that an old knee injury has affected me enough that I’ve thrown my back out as well! I’m sure you can understand the SPECIAL kind of pain that can manifest when your back informs you that nerves are being pinched!

So, where to start?
