I was wondering if there was a way to Block certain authors on TG Storytime? There is an author on there that refuses to use she/her pronouns for Trans Women characters and I'm sick of seeing their disgusting trans misogyny. I've thought about reporting them but I doubt the admins will care but I could be wrong. Has anyone had any luck with the report function? I'm asking because I'm not going to bother if this person will be protected and nothing will be done. If anything I'd just like the ability to remove them from my list so I don't have to see any of their terrible work.

Transgender Suicide Hotline Founder Detained At Border

The founder of a transgender helpline has been detained in Arizona at a random immigration checkpoint. When the van was stopped last Wednesday night, TransLifeline founder Nina Chaubal was detained.

is it just me? Or are all the readers on vacation?

Where did everyone go?--echo echo!

Hope you're all having fun!

I just put a new story up a little while ago, and in the process, it seems I rediscovered my little. I hadn't seen hide nor hair of her since late 2005, so more than eleven years have gone by, yet it seems I woke her up, so to speak, simply by using the name Jessica in my piece.

As I said, I hadn't had her come out for so long that I actually forgot her name, which is Jessica. What makes it even odder, at least for me, is I've read who knows how many stories featuring someone named or renamed Jessica, or written by someone named Jessica.

I read a story, think it was on Big Closet about a young man who is a dress designer, ends up work in an upscale dress shop in a mall and is slowly feminized. His mother is also a seamstress and he help her. Along with his BFF he dress as one of the female characters from Lord of the Rings for halloween, his boss dresses as Jessica Rabbit.

Happy New Year, all.

And serial writers and authors who use skeletons for posting, don't forget to update your copyright years!

Enjoy this year, smile a lot, and be kind.

Well with 2 exasperations of my copd in one month my doc ordered lung xrays.
Got those done yesterday morning. This afternoon I got called to see her about the results.

1) Results normally take 2 business days to get back to her, one day is very fast.
2) She doesn't go over results with patients without patient request unless there is bad news.

my appointment is Wednesday.

As We come to the end of one year and the start of another

Let us take the smiles and hope with us and allow the hurts to make us Stronger

Allow us to share our love with those Strangers yet to become our friends

I have only been here a few months yet it feels like home

Thank you all just for being their

Have a Happy New Year

Happy New Year to you all!

It's shaping up to be a perilous one, so we all must support each other, be compassionate and kind, but not let evil and madness go unchecked.

And sit with cats on our laps more often ...

So... I made a title page (MORFS: Chakats Give the Best Hugs,) and I wrote the first part of the story, but I can't figure out how to attach the first part of the story to the title page.

Help!

(I'm trying to cut down on the workload of the folks running the site just a bit, but I might have increased it. Sorry!)

I was watching the news last night on the local FOX affiliated station. Much to my surprise they were interviewing my cardiologist. He was explaining “broken heart syndrome” in connection with Debbie Reynolds' death.

Not too many years ago he had given me the same explanation. We were in his office going over my medical history, including my family’s health.

I had told him that my father had died in his sleep from a surprise heart attack. Less than a week later, my mother, who had not displayed any heart problems, died from a “heart attack.”

okay, I want to talk about dreams for a moment.

I am not sure I understand, much less agree with all dream analysis, but when patterns start get being repeated in dreams, its at least possible your brain is trying to tell you something.

For example, I've had a lot of "searching" dreams - dreams where I was looking for a person, a place, or an object.

Just letting my readers know this!

I added new art of Rohanna twins to the splash page for her section!

Hey everyone! I know quite a lot of users here are quite technical, and many have their own websites, so I thought it was important to post this here.

As the year draws to a close the temperature here is plummeting! What at first glance looked like a good layer of snow this morning was actually a heavy frost that has persisted all day - even in the city centre!

Things are a bit behind this week but the latest chapter of Gaby 14 can be found here today.

Looking forward to 2017 - I think!

Just on the news Debbie Reynolds died just 1 day after her daughter Carrie Fisher OMG

I had a few moments and downloaded a few books from Amazon.

It was a frustrating experience. Only one of the about dozen TG books I bought had a BC author. Her book was excellent. The others ranged from poor to really poor.

not enough data storage in the old grey matter.

Protagonist, Male some kind of LEO, age regression, teen, MtF (unwanted), mutation some kind of cat (more lion/tiger than domestic if memory is right)

Some nefarious agency flubs paperwork and declares unstable.

old friend breaks protagonist out, then helps clear up p/w snafu.

people kidnapped, may be 13/18 y/olds, not sure

near end big fight with bad guy/girl in warehouse/disused factory.

Kidnapees hidden in warehouse/disused factory.

I have recently discovered Ginger Collins, whose output seems to have been restricted to one year, December 2008 to December 2009. I found all the stories very readable, and far and away the best kept to last, almost exactly seven years ago when "Whatever Happened To Andy Crewson?" was posted on the last day of that year.

It is my belief that re-posting would help other newer readers like me to share in the delight of good stories well told.

In only three days it will be time to wish you all a happy new 2017

So best wishes to one and all

I hope everyone had a good Christmas. I also would like to wish you all a Happy New Year. We had a very different Christmas this year. Instead of spending it at home; we went to my in laws. I'm not complaining. I love my in laws. As much as I love my own parents. My only grumble about living in the UK is that I miss the snow. Hey I'm a Boston girl we're experts on snow lol. The kids had a great time especially as they were on the floor in sleeping bags. Well the older ones were the baby was in his mobile crib aka Moses basket.

in the mid to late 70's (highshool) I read a book where a man was mentally tortured by his youth where during ww2 he spent it as a boy in a jewish boy whore house. There was no sex described in the book. There was a scene where a ss officer had a boy dress as hitler and play with trains and toy soldiers. I could not of imagined a story of this nature but it escapes me the title sorry for this non site related blog but I can't get this book out of my head. So anybody else remember this
thanks

There will be a delay on the next part of Shadowsblade.

Like it says, I go a little delayed and I am still writing it.

So we all have to wait to see how, I mess with this Drow next!

MUHAHAAHA

I have evil plans indeed!

But Merry New Year!

hahahah

Hey all... just a few updates.

One, my trip to Standing Rock was amazing. I ended up in the National Leadership of Veterans Stand for Standing Rock. We ended up having 4.5k veterans show up in North Dakota to protect the Water Protectors. It was very cool. I was also very happy to spot a large number of Trans veterans among the group. The whole thing made me feel so proud.

So many singers passed away in 2016.

Looks out of closet in terror but has done it. Anti androgens, oestrogen spironalactone etc. The long road starting with trading in moobs for the real deal has begun. All legal and above board. You are never to old to make the decisions. Have been dressing and purging in secret for over 45 years. Please wish me luck i may need it.

I've been a bit remiss. I had intended to post a blog entry to update you on Grover's move, but the holidays snuck up on me and I somply forgot. So...

Here it is, Christmas Day, and we're going to have our typical Christmas Day weather.

At 6am the temp is 65F, the humidity is 90%, and the wind is from the southeast at 22mph gusting to 29mph.
Today's Forecast: 60% chance of showers and thunderstorms, some possibly severe. There is a low risk of tornados.

Is this a great state or what?!

To everyone on the site!

Just tell it when Merry Christmas and happy New Year's & Happy Solstice for those who are pagans

I wish to say merry Christmas and wish a happy new year to all the wonderful authors I read on bc. you bring laughter and some times tears to my eyes. if you weren't here. I would miss you. thanks also to erin, piper, sephrena, and the others who keep big closet going. hugs to all OOO

Merry Christmas to you all!
And if you don't celebrate Christmas, have a merry time as well!

...and now the commercial ...

This year has been a bad one for the musicians who have been in my life for... forever.

Today, we lost Rick Parfitt of Status Quo. I hope he is 'rocking all over the world (of heaven)'.

What with David Bowie, Greg Lake, Keith Emerson and now Rick Parfitt, this year has been bad.

RIP all of them

Is it really a year since the last time we were here?

Well it is and it's been an interesting year and i'm sure the next one will be too. Let me make some predictions:-

Some people will die
Some people will do good stuff
Some people will do bad stuff
Some kids will be born
There will be weather
Shit will happen

In other words pretty much the same as every other year to a lesser or greater degree. So let me wish you all more good stuff than bad, more joy than pain.

This is a good read about a bad law.

Full-time now. New name, new gender, same old person.

Back home again after 2572 miles, 6 different countries and 7 different beds. And I have to do all the driving, the SO doesn't!

Not bad for a 2-week trip, huh?

When we set out with a car load of goodies and garden furniture to deliver to friends and relatives in the UK, I never believed that we would return with an even fuller car ...

My granddaughter, young Bonnie, was a bit cranky for the time we were with her, but as she was/is teething and had a cold and a cough, that is hardly surprising. Her sunny smiley self came through a lot though.

Okay, weird dream last night. I found myself in a haunted house, fighting ghosts with not much more than my bare hands, and as remarkable as it seems, I won. But the dream wasn't done yet. At the end of the fight, God told me to pray for one of the ghosts to return to his body and live again. I did as I was told, with my hand on a casket, and the person was restored to life.

If God's trying to tell me something, I think I need an interpreter ...

Easter eggs are little bits of (alleged) humor snuck into a computer program. For example, in one early Microsoft product, going through a specific series of keystrokes produced a small on-screen caricature of Bill Gates who then used a squeegee to clear everything currently on the screen.

I've done some of the next Bike but just too tired to continue tonight. One more day to work then I'm off for a week.

Ever since I joined BC I've had this nagging feeling that I'm just wearing a mask when I'm saying anything on here. I know I'm not but, it feels that way. Sometimes I feel that I'm living a lie even though I'm not. If you know even the slightest about me you'd know I had it rough growing up. What you guys didn't know though is that I didn't really get to fully transition until after High School because nobody in my family supported me besides my grandparents. School for me was Hell!

I didn't like where the story went, so I rewrote it for her. She reminded me of it a while back, and I thought I would post a link to it on the anniversary of her posting it. You can decide which came closer to today.

(I admit I wrote something overly optimistic, but I found Dorothy's too depressing.)

I'm glad to see that you are still around and posting Dorothy, have a Merry Christmas.

This isn't for many who drop in to read the better than excellent story telling by unbelievably great authors. It is also too late for others who already took that step of living their life as they felt driven toward. Yet, if we share knowledge and resources, all those who follow have an easier task of making life work for them. This is on the same concept if man had never invented the wheel. Pretty tough dragging every load where we wanted to go. But someone made life easier for everyone.

Can De-transition stories be distressing or disturbing to readers? What issues are brought up?

Since I've been hit with a cold this weekend I can't produce the next chapter of Selene today. Expect it tomorrow or Wednesday.

Author's Commentary on Somewhere Else Entirely: Chapters 11 to 14

These chapters have the usual typographical tweaks but there are a number of questions which arose here and others which had later implications.
