Hello, everyone!
I'm Roberta - Bobbie for short. My profile name here is "bobbie-c," and people here refer to me as Bobbie C, or just Bobbie, or even Bobbi. Just please not Bobby, 'kay?
How're you doing?
This is my main organizer page (some call it "main author page" or "main book page") here in BigCloset Topshelf! It provides links to all of my stories (both stand-alone stories and story universes), poems, anthologies and two of my old blogs here in BCTS. You might want to check them out. For the links to my stories and other stuff, just scroll down.
And, as usual, after you've checked them out, please do leave comments, feedback or any message at all in the stories. I'd be very pleased to hear from you!
BUT! Please be warned: if your comment is just pointing out a spelling or grammar error, or pointing out a technical error, I am very, very, very allergic to these "gotcha!" comments (as in, "Hah! Caught you in an error! Gotcha!"), and it'll just get my dander up and I will send back a preachy comment. Because it is my sincere belief that posting a public gotcha comment is not polite and is actually very rude, since all it accomplishes is it embarrasses the writer. I think it's equivalent to trolling, or painting graffiti on walls, or heckling.
If one is sincere in trying to help someone, then such things should be sent via a private message, or PM, allowing the writer to save face and correct whatever technical or grammar error one spots quietly and discretely: when a person points out someone's spelling error, grammar error or technical error publicly when he could easily have pointed it out privately, it just gives lie to the idea that he "only wants to help."
But feel free to post any other comments, and I'm almost sure we can have a nice, fun, and probably informative, exchange of comments/responses. I especially like discussing story elements, plots, characters and character development, favorite books, music, TV shows and movies, story construction, writing style and things like that. Except "gotcha" comments, of course.
You can send me a private message in the usual way, or by clicking this button:
Thanks! Take care of each other, be nice and, above all, be kind.

"Bobbie's Little Stories:"
Bobbie’s Little Stories are stand-alone stories from three of Bobbie C’s story universes: A fanfic re-imagination of Charlie's Angels called Charlie and Her Angels, a fanfic series based on Doctor Who, and stories about my original character, Debbie Delaney, reluctant ghost hunter.
These stories originally came out as my contributions to the reboot of the TG Mixed Tape anthologies of super-short pieces initiated by PersnicketyBitch. The revamped reboot, which now accepts longer contributions, was restarted by Hikaro, and is presently under the custodianship of Hikaro and Trismegistus Shandy.
