It is a "real life" tagged serial/novel, if I recall correctly. It takes place in England. A fellow comes home from work early and finds his wife in bed with another man. He heads off, after leaving a note saying he'd be filing for divorce. He decides at this point that he's going to transition permanently at this point.

She drives off and her car breaks down near a small seaside village. She starts making friends and falls head over heels for this woman living alone in the village who has a number of cats.

I spent the weekend moving into my new apartment, and have more stuff than I realized. Lots of books.... lots and lots of books.

I posted two stories yesterday. Got 2000 hits between them. 8 Comments. 78 Kudos. Out of 2000 hits between two stories.

I'm going to pose this question and I hope to garner some serious answers and discussion.

I am trying to keep up a shorter posting time between installments. I do not know how long I can keep this up but we shall observe.

I noticed a paucity of Father's day messages here so I figured I'd better.

Fathers, mine at least, are a quiry mix of godlike figure, idiot/savant, your best pal and that old JERK! Aaaaarg!

I lit a candle for my brother in church today.

My day started with me in tears as I went to church, because as it is Father's day, I found myself missing my dad something awful.

I don't know if this will be of any use for people, but it's made things easy for me. So, I thought I'd pass this on.

O.O

Ran across this quote today: "I was working on the proof of one of my poems all the morning, and took out a comma. In the afternoon I put it back again. - Oscar Wilde"

I have so done that! :)

Has it been noticed that ClassicBC is down by anyone?

I have been trying to access it all week and could not. I just finally figured out how to post about it, I don't post new blogs often.

Well, we got some bad news here.

I took this from what he says as advice towards creative individuals of any bent. I hope some of you find it interesting. Click the link at the bottom for the entire interview with Mark Waid. For those not familiar with Mark Waid, he's a highly successful comic writer who's worked for all three of the major houses and has his own online publishing house at Thrillbent.

I think I understand Lady Gaga just a little better than I did.

Now, don't get ahead of me, I'm going somewhere with this.

Interesting Huff Post about a family keeping it together.

Well, for a few weeks anyway.

In the movie ‘The Poseidon Adventure,’ one of the characters sings a song, ‘The Morning After.’ It was a way for the people making the movie to let people know even after surviving the horrific events depicted in the movie the characters, and their stories, lived on. Just what kind of lives they enjoyed was left to the movie viewer to make up on their own.

First of all, I'm sorry but the chapters of Winter's Child and Twice Removed that I was hoping to have done today will be a bit delayed since my weekend was a bit crazy. First on Saturday I had to do some gardening and Martin's three year old niece wanted me to play with her pretty much all day long, so I was too tired to do much when we got home late. Then yesterday I had a bit of a breakdown. Ever since I moved to Quebec I've had nothing but problems with finding any sort of work, getting financial assistance, getting consistent medical coverage, a doctor and my prescriptions.

If you are interested, I've found an interesting article on being trans and being a survivor of sex abuse:

I want to publicly send a HUGE Thank You to the artist of the cover of the Kindle book " The Dragon Staff of the Master Druid ", Erica Caddei .

Just taking a break from JoB- and SEE-related activities as random thoughts spark across my mind.

I am looking to help authors or others. That would like help with a website, website design. Graphic design, logo design, and book design, layout or other things.

I watched this today at a friend's house.

Getting involved with fictional characters is up to each individual.

While I don't have a high output to begin with, I suspect it may drop off for a few weeks. The kids are out of school and when they're not tying up the computer, they're still up and about. It was much easier to write around them when they couldn't read...

I only mention this because I know some readers are waiting for continuations. But my available writing time, which was small already, has shrunk a lot.

This is just venting, but I feel the need to put it out there so I can get rid of it. This just happens to be the venue I'm in this morning.

Basically I messed up last night and got hurt.

I just finished reading an Anne McGaffery trilogy, "Petabea", and as I reflect on the experience I actually feel that there are not a few authors here who are equal or perhaps better than her. I have loved her writing for quite a long time, and my comments are not meant in any way to demean her skills. They are rather comments on how well some of you do and how pleased I am that some of you have chosen to put themselves out on the open market and give it a go.

I have published my twentieth ebook Salvations at Amazon. Like all my books, it's now only available in the Kindle format. It was originally workshopped here on BCTS as "Saving Us" and has been edited and revised a bit, but at the risk of decreasing my sales, if you have "Saving Us" you've pretty much got it already.

One of the no-no's I do is mixing point of views. I'll have the main character speaking in the first while other viewpoints are presented at the end of the chapter. No one has really complained about this and I think as long as I keep those other POV as counterpoints to the main character it works for me.

That is until this latest tale of mine. My main character has been Shanghaied by a rogue AI Time-ship. I ended up with this back and forth thing going between the two with an occasional peek into the larger universe to remind my readers that lots more is actually going on.

Just wondering, haven't seen any comments or blogs from Extravagance in a while. Loving Hugs Talia

My best friend died last night.

I was born in Kew Gardens, Queens, a borough of NYC:

It’s been slightly over a year since I started selling ebooks via the Amazon Kindle store and Smashwords. I thought I should share some information about the results with other writers.

It isn't ingrates. We have people passing judgment on books without even reading it. I called out one of these people. Here and here I offered to refund the purchase price of my ebook if he could answer two questions to prove he or she purchased it. Guess what-

Well, I didn't wanna worry anybody, but I have been in a pretty bad way the last couple of days in terms of depression.

I am sitting on something very hot right now. I am half way through writing a biography about an undercover narcotics officer for a major metro police force who happens to be transgender and just went through SRS.

I know I have had some success self publishing, but this is well beyond the scale of God Bless the Child and Unreachable when it comes to importance and marketability. I admit, I might not have what it takes to make this book the success that it should be on its own. I need an agent, but I have no clue how to find one or where to really look.

I worked a 12 hour day went to check my emails and found one from the TdF organisers about my training in a couple of weeks time. I clicked on the link and it reverted to one that was sent in March or February. I tried to write to them about it and my email provider logged me out, which it's been doing for sometime--one evening it logged me out ten times in as many minutes. I suspect as soon as the UK stages of the TdF are completed I'll be changing my ISP I've had enough. Anyone contemplating using Talktalk - don't, they are complete and utter crap.

Hey there,

The story im looking for is of a boy dressed by his cousins to go to a 60's themed dance and then got a job at a news station does any one have any idea what the name of it is

Every comment is appreciated. Believe me, every single one. If a person leaves a comment about the story it means it touched them deeply enough they became "emotionally" involved enough to say something.

Someone didn't like the way it was written. They had an opinion. Someone claims it is headed in the wrong direction. Someone likes it.

For more years than I'm going to tell, I've been writing. And I honestly love the comments that tells me my story was Road Kill because it was DOA. They got emotionally involved.

As most of my long-time readers know, I try my best in this blog to be as honest as I possibly can, in part to make up for the amount of lying that was part of my life before. That isn't always easy, a lot of the time I'd rather talk about something "safe" than bring out the tough stuff that's going on. Like, for example, discovering I did the double-look at boys, that was not easy to write out for public consumption, to say the least.

Sadly, I'm faced with one of those moments again

Been a long time since I posted anything and people might be wondering if I gave up writing for good or if I decided to join a circus or something.

A couple of questions really, about where I should go from here.

To those who do not like to read blogs or posts about crass fiscal concerns, A warning: this post is full of them, please don't read if you are offended by such.
