Moving the Princess
I am in the process of moving Healing a Princess over to this site..... ch.1 - 16 are now posted there, with more to follow. I will be posting all new chapters of Healing a Princess over at Fictioneer. As I will be taking them down from this site in April. I will however, will be announcing when new chapters of HaP will be posted.
A big THANKS to Erin for creating this cool new site for our non-TG works
and a thank you to all of you who are reading, enjoying and commenting.

Don't take them down...
...you'll lose the comments people have made.

Yes, but ...
Erin,
since many of the comments are mine, is that such a loss?

How'd you get that time machine to work?
Your post says you put it up at the beginning of next month. (Or is it joke on us all?)
Just wondering,
Jamie
It's just a trick to keep it at the top of the blogs for awhile

whoah, I'm all over th' place!
I was good and focused on my BigCloset 5-parter HUMOR ME, but now with the opening of FICTIONEER
I've been running around like the proverbial headless chicken, rummaging through filing cabinets and old discs- This story? That story? This new idea? TG or Non-TG? Got one of my "street novels" all cleaned up to post on Fictioneer as Roger Di Prima, then decided to lead off with the other, less depressing one, which is a wreck in need of extensive repairs ............... This is the way I've always written, scattershot, dropping one story
& starting another on a whim, a state of happy chaos with piles of notes all over the desk- EXCEPT that I haven't always had an audience, who might be wondering what happened to Punkin' Judy the clown in that story, but I get about 3 paragraphs done & start nosing thru my archives again. Not to mention I still haven't finished my "Jenny Lee" three-parter. Maybe serials are just not my thing. I'm soooooooo confuuuused...
And loving it. (But I will try to finish Humor Me in the next couple months.) LAIKA
Well shit, I guess it really CAN happen here..,

work on Humor Me
THIS IS A FOLLOW UP TO THE ABOVE COMMENT. A BLOG BY ANY OTHER NAME...
I love the FICTIONEER option! Suddenly there is a home for all these older stories of mine. But I'm a slow writer, my output here at BCTS was never that prodigious, and it was disconcerting for me to spend a whole week without doing ANY work on my BigCloset serial HUMOR ME. My "non-t.g." novel* ESKIMO BLUE DAY was supposed to take a few days to post on FICTIONEER. It was on a disc,
all I had to do was turn double-spaced into single-spaced and paste it in there, right?
Ha ha. It is to laugh! With all I've learned about the craft of writing since I started posting stories here, I now realize the book needs some SERIOUS re-writing. The whole thing was overgrown with pointless exposition, awkward phrasing, needs massive pruning and cleaning up. More like 4 weeks than the quick 4-day detour I though it was gonna be ...... So it was good to open up the current section of HUMOR ME this morning and plug away at it for six hours (with a few breaks to follow the Great Tea Debate currently taking place here), and I'll hopefully put in a few more hours on it after this. And God willing it'll be posted within a week from today, if any of my three-and-a-half fans wanted to know......... Having my attention divided between the two sites threw me off stride for a bit, but I'm starting to get the hang of it, and I think it'll be good for my stuff both here and on FICTIONEER...
~~~hugs Laika a.k.a. Roger Di Prima
*Ostensibly a non-t.g. work; but reading between the lines there are veiled allusions to gender-conflict by this "Roger" fellow, the rather more closeted narrator who represents myself back in those days. And I guess this crypto-blog is also a plug for that novel (which is not actually about Eskimos but one of the two I wrote about my homeless years), if anyone has the time or inclination to check it out), and for FICTIONEER in general....
Well shit, I guess it really CAN happen here..,
