I was going to reread Alandria's Song http://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/book/25622/alandira-s-song but the content seems to be missing -- or am I missing something?

Well, five days into the new year, and its turning into crap already.

I have "sort of" completed a new story and universe. The working title is "Here Be Dragons", I am unsure if I should give it a few days or post "as is" so to speak and make any changes based on your suggestions.

Happy New Year,
Sunwolf

This is a video of what the weather has done to Aberystwyth, home of Sarah's university in 'Cold Feet' and 'Sisters'. At the end of the video, you get a look at the hill they go up in the panoramic railway.

Hi all,

Mark of Wis made a suggestion recently and I have caught that ball and run with it.

Due to somewhat underwhelming sales in its first week even by my own meager expectations (2 copies,) I have slashed the price on my Josie's Con book from 1.49 down to .99 americans.

I always thought that Sexual Reassignment Surgery would be out of reach for me because of the cost. Thankfully that problem was solved and I was able to get a majority of the surgery done at no cost at all. Thanks to my job, while delivering the papers last night I froze my balls off. Now, I'm half way there.

Brr.

I'll be here all week.

I've heard of jewelry and bracelets made from human hair before, but I have no actual experience with them. I know they were popular during the 18th (maybe 19th) century, but a lot of people have never even heard of them in these modern times. I don't ever intend to make such a thing or wear one, but I'm thinking of using one in my story. The tale itself is set in a dystopian future Earth where most of humanity has been enslaved by a malevolent race of aliens.

From the New Yorker:

Hey, I just noticed, that In Memoriam entry. What happened to Stanman? When did Stanman pass away?

Not bad for two days. Don't expect it next week, I'm back in work and have to do my accounts for the taxman.

I don't necessarily do New Year resolutions every year, but I found myself looking over my records of my writing in 2013, and thinking about how I could improve, and found myself making a whole passel of writing-related resolutions, some vaguer and more tentative than others.

I did promise that there would be a Gaby Christmas special

I know many here are looking for their favorite serial. Others are looking for a stand alone story.

Well here's your chance to read something different.

1. Go to Goodwill and buy a pair of size 14-16 men's work boots

It's already January 1 in much of the world so I'll wish you all a happy new year! We've got a few hours to wait here in the US central time zone.

I'm done being stuck in my rut and back to writing. I have decided to put the DRU on the back burner though....well soon as I finish up I Bump Back and Are You a Good Witch that is. Misty's story comes first, I posted the fourth chapter of it today. I'll move onto Kelly from there. After that I have a few Non-DRU ideas I've been actively brainstorming and working on.

So I hope everyone bears with me for now :)

To everyone--a happy, healthy, and prosperous new year to all of you!

Lots of fireworks over here!

Happy New Year!

Ok folks, I'm back. Maybe I have been away too long, but my recent episode of Angel is all centered and I can't figure out why, there are no tags to format it as such. Anyone know what's going on?

Well, I almost lost it in church yesterday. As part of the service, they allowed people to come up to the front, light a candle, and say something they are grateful for. I went up, and thanked the church for their acceptance of me, and barely kept the tears back. Then, after the service I tried to explain what it meant to me that the church treats me like just another woman, and I almost lost it again ...

I am so blessed, yes?

I just went to the maps to check the link works - I have trouble with some links on another site.

Lo and behold - none of the 'thumbnails' of the maps display.

A good number of my stories are inspired whilst travelling be it for work(which I do a lot of) or for Pleasure.

For more than 40 years my wife and I have been trying to figure out the name of a movie we had seen on late night television in Little Rock in the late 60s.. One of the stations stayed on all night. That was a big thing then. After the last late night show was over, they'd play old movies. This was before we started going together. There was a particular movie that we saw several times. It had a music theme that was built around a piano concerto. It may have been Rachmaninoff or Grieg.

Well, after being one of the most prolific writers on here for the last four and a half years, I am facing the real possibility that my ideas cupboard is growing close to bare. Maybe all my brainpower is wrapped in my autobiography, but its possible that outside of a few crumbs that I might be able to bring to life, my days as a writer are numbered ...

If that occurs, I want my friends to know I will continue to contribute in other ways. I will comment and encourage other authors, and I will keep my blog going with whatever is happening in my life.

I'm trying to figure out how the photo of my story ended up on somebody's else's story.

It's just over a year since I first registered with Big Closet. I think it's safe to say that doing so has taught me a lot.

"Before my time"
Best "mind exchange" story ever.
Missing Bear and Bob...

I guess I didn't visit the site as much as I would have liked recently since life has bee getting in the way. I had to face up to new challenges but as tough as they are they are nothing compared to some I read recently here.
I should count my blessings. So I picked up on the Christmas story I started and hope to get back into the swing of things. So many people here support and encouragement and even a nice thought or a wish or just a touch of kindness.

I got my first review for my book up at Kindle, 'Heroes of Justice.' It was mostly positive with the reviewer giving me four stars. Apparently despite all the people who have looked it over, mistakes have still persisted. That's annoying since I think at times I can recite the whole book given how many times I've gone over it.

On a humorous note, the review claims to have bought it accidentally because of Amazon's 'One-Click' Button.

However, one review is better than no review!

in need of prayers for my wife. we went to the doctors last week for her appointment they ran some test on her they call on Wednesday found out that she has kidney renal failure of her left kidney a though years ago she had cancer in the same kidney they took a 1/4 of her kidney nope can't do any chemo on her she has diabetes so it won't work

So I had to go up to walter reed for my endocrinologist appt today. While we where there we decided to chech out the NEX and ended up getting lunch in the NEX food court. Well while I was eating I looked to the table next to me and saw this really hot nerd guy and realized he had google glasses. I was so excited I jumped up and ran over to his table to ask him about them and what hr thought of them. Poor guy almost choked on his food when I ran up to his table practily screamin " OMG, are those google glasses!" He ended up being really cool and let me try them out, it was awesome.

First of all, Merry Christmas to all who want to celebrate that holiday and Happy Holidays to those celebrating some other day and Seasons Greetings to everyone else!

I know that there are some who are concerned about me and really care. As I often do, I will be taking my leave from the site for a while. Unless something major happens or I will the Nobel Prize for transgender literature, I will have nothing much to offer for a while. I am going to be starting on my next story sometime in the beginning of January. I plan on making Growing Up Jenny into a paperback as well after a major overhaul.

Just to give you a heads up of what is planned for 2014:

I hope those who like my bagatelles will enjoy it, the title is a pun look at the title of this blog if you don't get it.

After a brief discussion with Elrod, I decided to re-read "Trick of the Mind" by Maeryn Lamonte.

It is this time of year that makes grumpy old farts like me sit back and remember just what life I all about....Its not about what you did or what you achieved , to me its all about being the kind of person God would like you to be. Those ten commandments were set for a reason. I haven't been an angel about following them and am the first to admit it , But I now want to say this. I am going to try harder in the coming days, those of you I have offended know who you are and I offer the hand of friendship and forgiving to now.

or you will most likely catch a Tinselitis infection.

I'd just like to say a special thanks to those of you who go to the trouble of reading my work. If it wasn't for you guys, we who try to scribble would never get the encouragement to continue.

Good morning!

I'm the Christmas Nut I suppose and used to rival Chevy Chase's "Christmas Vacation" when it comes to decorating my house.

Hi everyone, I just wanted to take a moment to say Happy holidays to all of you, whichever holidays you choose to celebrate. I'm a witch so I celebrate Yule on the winters solstice personally, though Martin is having me celebrate Christmas with his/her family this year as well. In fact we need to leave soon for a Christmas Eve gathering. I do have a little present in the works for all my wonderful readers.

I just thought I'd login and wish you all a very happy Christmas! I hope you all get what you wish. Enjoy yourselves and have a wonderful 2014. Love, from Ireland! X

Here in Switzerland, it is now Christmas Day.

Have a very happy day, all of you - and may the upcoming year be less stressful.

My Christmas wish for everyone one here in particular and all the world beyond. Acceptance of your self and by others.

Happy Christmas To All. w/Huggles,
~Hypatia >i< ..:::

Since I don't know if / when I'll be able to log on tomorrow (hey, it's a busy day!), I would like to wish you all:

Have a Very Happy Christmas.

Eat, drink and be merry (in both senses of the word!) :)
