Quick note, I'm still a few days away from posting the conclusion to Fragrance, but I just came up with an image for Part 4, got excited, and wanted to post it.

(Okay, confession time - bright shiny objects mesmerize me...)

This is kind of related to the motif of this site. :-)

OK... so it just tickled my funny bone.

I have been doing battle the last two days trying to get two of my meds refilled. I have had to deal with the nurse for my Endocrinologist. I have been so frustrated with her I could scream! She interrogated me up one side and down the other about why I needed the refills. I have dubbed her "Nurse Nightmare, because it is a real nightmare dealing with her . I told her that my prescriptions were expired. She kept arguing that I couldn't be out of refills. The doctor put five refills on there, but there is no way that I use five vials in a year.

Well, my cluster headaches are back. It is like a migrane, but centered on my right eye and going down to my mouth. I am convinced that the stress of my situation is playing a role in this pain. Which makes it more imperitive that I figure out a way to get some hope, and fast.

Here is the fourth chapter. I am also going to post a separate file for the List of Characters. It will have all of the characters for Books 1 and 2. There will be some chapters that I will post that will not have the characters listed with the chapter. That list will get longer and longer if I do that. The main list will be modified as needed.

I'm taking a couple of days away from BCTS so the next chapter of Robin will be slightly delayed.

I apologize for the delay.

Haven't been on BC much lately, too much turmoil in my life. Lost my job and have been preparing to move so I might get one doing basic factory labor for less than half what I'm used to making I don't mind working, but my health issues have been none too stable for the last year, and this isn't going to help. And the move also means closing up my house (MY house, bought and paid for!) and moving in with my brother, so I'm losing a significant amount of personal freedom as well.

I'm off to the San Diego Comic-Con International! See you there!

Thanks, everyone!

Well, after all that, I was turned down. Apperantly, I took too long to get my stuff in to start school. I am cushed, and somehow must find a way to keep going regardless.

I have been noodling a new vision spring story but right now, I am going to find out if i am going to get funding for school, so i am too nervous to write. wish me luck, would you?

No I'm not going to go through that old one about how you give a cat a pill, but for reference, you can find it here.

Instead, I'm going to tell you how yesterday I risked life and limbs (I have the gouges, scratches, lacerations and other abrasions to show for it) to take our cat, Sammo, to the vet.

I have an 80 page manuscript that I just found. It is in Typewritten print. Perhaps I did it on a Typewriter, so that would say before 82'. I also had a scanner that I could scan it in with but I have never liked the program that puts it into a file on the computer.

Has the technology improved so I could go to Kinkos or somewhere and get it done or am I going to intput it myself?

Thanks

A major milestone passed today... And, I felt the need to share it with my friends.

Interesting article spotted in this week's New Scientist:

"IN 2010 we need to ask afresh just how deep the rabbit hole goes when it comes to gender politics - and how far we are from digging ourselves out. Our beliefs about differences between the sexes have an impact on society vastly out of proportion to the magnitude of those differences, from female scientists defending their mathematical and technical expertise to boys accused of lacking the communication and emotional skills to succeed at school."

New Scientist: Opinion | Out with pink and blue: Don't foster the gender divide | 19th July 2010

It would be so nice to get the general UK opinion of this movie supposedly about an American girl in an English Boarding School.

Newspaper story, worth a read. Loved the graphic.

Well, I did it. after I posted my last entry, I talked to a friend online, and found the courage, and went out and got gas as Dorothy. To do something so normal, so mundane, as dorothy gave me such a good feeling. I may start crying, but they are good tears, I think.

An Open Letter to Anita Bryant

Well worth reading.

Just in case anyone's been wondering why there's been a distinct absence of comments from me over the past week, I've been temporarily offline.
Well, strictly speaking, my 'net connection's fine, it's just that I've been on a short holiday in the Exeter / Dartmoor area.

When I posted the last blog, I wasn't planning on repeating. But, an event this morning caused me to think, and I wanted to post somewhere. So, you got "elected".

This morning, one of those events that can just "get to you" happened...

Well, Georgina 2 is up. I want to apologise for the delay, not only did real life get in the way, but I got sidetracked by some of Margaret Jeanette's story endings that kept rolling around in my brain and wouldn't let me do anything else. Now all I've got to do is write part 3. I hope this won't take as long. I hope that part 2 will not disappoint anyone. I found the tears welling up when I wrote the ambulance journey. I don't know why, they just did. I knew Sam would make it, so why did I want to cry?
Anyway. my thanks to everyone who read my stories and to those that comment.

Love
Sam

I actually managed to finish (more or less) my Summer Romance contest entry last night. It's kind of rough, but done. I still need to do some minor formatting stuff with it and give it a title. Then I'll go through it one last time and probably tidy up the ending a bit. So I'll probably be posting it sometime between eight and ten tonight (Pacific Time). A bit last minute, I know, but this one has been a bit of a pain.

I have recently been considering Animation where characters are drawn with feminine characteristics, I noticed that with Ed, Edd n' Eddy one of three may have been drawn with a feminine bias, its subtle and I think it was done as a teaser.

I wonder what would happen in real life if one developed animated feminine characteristics and as a result looked cartoonish!

On the 16^th of July, 2007, Angharad published Part 1 of this legendary tale.

It may be July, but for the Munchkin it's just a few days before Christmas.

What an amazing journey this has been for me both as an author and, I feel, as a human being, not so much from writing my Robin stories but from my connection with the community here.

I've been thinking for awhile now about what it is I want to do with Robin's tale. I read somewhere recently (I STRONGLY suspect someone's signature right here at BCTS actually :-D) that the sign of a great story is when you dread writing the final chapter.

Chapter 17 of Sissy farm posted. I'll soon be at 19 then the unposted new chapters will start to flow. I dunno how it'll end but probably about thirty-ish chapters. Thirty seems a goodly number. I've already sorted out the femme version of 'The Angry Mermaid.' In my head, it'll be quite a bit different from the 'Normal' version, whatever 'Normal' is! Whilst I'm writing the femme version I'll be using some of my older material as 'fillers' to satisfy appetites.

Well it is better but probably more confusing than ever before. I think it confused more than entertained. I definitely need help any and all suggestions welcomed. Think the problem is more me than anything as i have a 8 track mind and need an upgrade. the problem is I really never wanted to publish the original. But My beloved Husband felt it should be shared so he opened an account as author on Storysite for me and I read it again a couple of weeks ago and could not believe how bad it was so....

So after reading the starting of Lilith's comic retcon universe,and a fan of Juliverse and recently discovered Morpheus Legacy universe im wondering if there is a list some where of tg universes and their collected stories

Okay, now here's the deal.

I have agonized for months, re: my feminine presentation. Having somewhat low self esteem regarding my overall presentation, I have never, I repeat, NEVER considered myself female looking enough to be comfortable in public. That has gone by the boards. Over the last few months there have been more than a few instances where I have been accepted by people who have no other reason to accept that I am who and what I appear to be. To be accepted simply as just another female is still heady stuff for me, but I LOVE it!

Yesterday, we got a letter from The Heart Hospital, offering a date. My partner goes in next Wednesday 21st for a heart bypass operation very early on the 22nd.

Just a quick note for anyone that's interested, I've finally sat down and done some uniformity tweaks to my Organizer pages.

I haven't decided if I'm going to do anything with my Author page yet, but Book One now has a proper title, and all three have a proper, brief synopsis attached.

Sorry it's taken me so long to get around to doing this. I really, honestly did not expect my Robin chapters to become so popular especially as the first serious writing I've done in years, not counting the odd fanfic here and there.

I was wondering whether you guys were hoping that the four teens of my story find the resort location that is open for business and fairly full or the one that is empty and closed down.

Post your choice if you have one. I want to know what you persons think.

Yeah... so I am not doing much writing at the moment since my wife's mother passed away. I have some stuff mostly done but I don't have the spoons to finish them, as there is too much other stuff that is going on. Sorry for the delay.

Well I got back from the Sparkle ball and party in the park.
Had a wild time.
Gosh those Manchester girls are bold lasses first she wanted to have her photo taken with me (Then she squeezed my boob.)
Next she demanded a second photo and the cheeky cow was checking out my boobs.

Historians claim to have identified the site of the Round Table of King Arthur, at a site near Chester. A recently uncovered collesium like structure is believed the be the fabled location. It could seat about 1,000 people, nobles and retainers mostly, and would have been an assembly area for preparing for war. Thought it was interesting since there has been some interest in Ancient Briton and associated areas.

See link above for more.

I am doing a story involving the S.R.U. Wizard and his Assistant Danni. I need to learn when she first appeared.

Stanman May Your Light Forever Shine

AOL this morning has a story about Jack Norworth, the man who penned “Take Me Out to the Ballgame”. The refrain to that song is almost as familiar as the Big Closet melody, There Are No Rules, which is chirped every time someone suggests a methodology for writing.

Rules are made to be broken, but it’s easier to successfully engage the reader if you put the ball close to the strike zone.

Hi! Como esta? (my seatmate said it's actually colloquially pronounced "coomoo-sta" here)

Just arrived in Manila, and wanted to drop a little quickie note to tell everyone we're all safe and sound

Quote from "Wonder Boys" with Michael Douglas.

This black man asks Trip who is an author... "If you don't know what its about [his draft novel] why did you write it?"
Trip responds... "I couldn't stop."

Haha. Some authors here might answer the same...

Nobody.

I'm going to the Far East this afternoon. There are four of us flying to the Philippines this afternoon. Our flight leaves at 5:30pm later, so last night, I packed a my one and only wheelie bag with just five outfits, a couple of heels (in black, of course, so it'll match with virtually anything) a couple of pajamas, and just enough underwear for a week (plus make-up, toiletries, brushes n combs and everything else a girl needs).

This was on Yahoo today and I thought you'al would be interested! Richard

BOSTON — The federal law banning gay marriage is unconstitutional because it interferes with the right of a state to define the institution and therefore denies married gay couples some federal benefits, a federal judge ruled Thursday in Boston.

This is a call to those who like to proof read stories. The first book is written of the series The Omega Unicorn Chronicles. I couldn't use the title The Last Unicorn, because there is already a book with that title. Book One is 30 chapters long. Book Two has 31 chapters and still counting. The Third Book is going to wait until Book Two is done. The Rescue Mission will be re-written to reflect books one and two better. I suggest reading the story first before taking it apart. There are rabbit trails and mysteries along the way.

Mmmm. That tastes really nice!

Well, that's Chapter 15 of 'The Sissy Farm posted.

I won't be posting anything now until after Monday.

The Angry mermaid is at Chapter 12 and going strong. It's a bit like Conan the Destroyer insofar as our hero and heroine go from place to place righting wrongs; sometime deliberately and sometimes inadvertently.

I've been contacted by a number of people regarding The Center, and whether or not the two recent stories are authorized and whether or not they can write a story as well. Yes, they are, and yes you can. In Chapter Nine (Comments) I made it an open universe to anyone that wants to write in it. There's no need to ask permission. Though if you want questions answered or more inside information about some of the characters, that didn't get revealed too much, for your own story, then PM me.

If you do write one, just credit me for the characters and universe. That's all I ask.
