If you are going to do something do it right? At least I think that was the name of the story.It was about a girl who lived with her grandfather who died and started going to school as a girl.

Many times, when I try to vote on a story, a dialogue box opens that says, " An HTTP error 0 occured (sic). /topshelf/drupalit/count-vote/7441/1" and the 'vote/voted' box goes blank.

I know that this is way off topic, but I beg you to indulge me for a few moments. For those who really know me, one of my obsessions is to try to figure out the real nature of what I believe to be the intelligence who created all this. I must shamefully admit that at times everything seems incredibly chaotic and mostly evil. But in my quiet moments I know that perhaps I am just not sophisticated to understand everything.

250,028 hits on my stories at Crystal's!!! I feel so humble and yet proud at the same time.

I spend a lot of time on this site. I mean, a LOT. One thing I do from time to time is click through the names of active users to check out their profile pages and see what stories they have marked as favorites. I like the idea of going to the page of an author I enjoy and seeing what stories they recommend or are inspired by. Unfortunately, not many people use this feature of the site, one of my favorites.

This is what SaraUK sent me 2 days ago!

Amy was watching the clock slowly tick away the time until she could go to the private hospital that Amber was being taken to. Ann was going to call when they had her settled in to her room, then Vic and Carl were going to drive them all to see her.
“It’ll only make it go even slower you know.” Chrissy said, as she saw Amy looking at the clock again.
“I know Chrissy, but I just want to see Amber again, and tell her how sorry I am for what happened to her.” Amy said, as she lay next to Chrissy on the bed in Mandy’s room.

I've managed to post Bike 678 tonight, however, the link to my dongle is not very good and I can't promise to get online every night. I will post as and when the vagueries of internet connections allow. Yorkshire is colder than Dorset -brrrrrrrr! I'll have to start wearing knickers again!

Whatever Next 23 -my take on the Gabyverse - has gone to Maddy Bell, so should be up in the next week or so.

So, my nickname is Faraway, because I live half the world away from you, of course!

I am 20, I live in Russia, Middle Urals. Please don't send any missiles my way! :)

I have just seen that Changes 9 has had 666 hits. Is that an omen?

Scared Sue

I wanted to let my readers know that I am committed to my stories. I have some breathing room from my day job this coming week, so there should be some progress made on one or both of the stories.

I really shouldn't be posting right now. I'm getting a head cold - at least I hope it's just a cold - and it's ridiculously late, but I've been putting off a "I'm okay" type thing too long.

The news sources in New York City are all reporting a story where a man posed as his own dead mother for six years, wearing a wig and her clothes while living in her rent controlled home,

Now that FM is back in biz and Storysite is posting new stories, have the readers who found BC in the interim flown?

What has happened to the number of hits over the last month?

Jill

Ok, no comments from the peanut gallery on that one!

Got on the bus at 6AM, slept most of the way. Spent a thoroughly awful time getting my breathing tested, blood draw, endo consult, blah, blah, blah. Rained most all day.

Tampax has a fictional blog / video series about a 16-year-old boy who suddenly has "girl parts down there."

Find it here.

The other car wallopred the passenger side door, crumping it in, but good, and shatteriung the glass, too. Well, I was in the passenger seat, and there is a small bruise on my right side. Other than a bit of stiffness, soreness, and painI'm OH. Right now, my right shoulder is a bit tenderand taking aspirin for pain. I am LUCKY! I am near 400lb in weight, 5'4" in height, and except for medicine for high blood pressure, diet,[vitamins] and anxiety, I am trouble free. And am not allergic to stuff.

Well, my mother came into my room a few minites ago and we talked for a little bit. Then she asked me about the panties she found in my laundry.I denied it and suggested that some of her stuff got into mine. She said that she had never worn panties that large. I just brused it off and she just said that she was going to just throw them away. Good thing that I already recued mine and repaced it with a pair of hers. When she asked me if they were mine I thought I was going to be sick. The look on my face had to give me away. God, I feel like such a piece of shit for lying to her.

Well, I see all these other authors hinting about things to come so I thought I would do the same. My current effort, as yet unnamed, is approximately 75-80% complete at 120,000 words.

Homecoming Princess Part 3 will be delayed for posting until tomorrow. I am working with some story issues Sephrena had brought up in the course of proofing that I need to rewrite. With luck, you will be able to see it Tuesday. Arecee

I was going off with my best friend, Walter, when we were hit. We were in the intersection, when the other xar rammed into the passenger side door.

Hey all.

I was wondering if any of you could help me a bit.

I just posted Julie O's newest story on Stardust. Click here to read it. Julie wants me to post it here on BCTS in about a week or so.

I just wanted to say how shocked I was to see so many readers of my stories in less than 2 full days of having them posted. I've always been hyper-critical of anything that I've written, so it's rather surprising for them to be accepted like they appear to have been.

Thanks to all of you that have read them, thanks to all that left comments or privately emailed, and thank you especially to Gwen Brown.

I am able to contact and communicate with you all from my hospital bed.

Yes, I am in the hospital -- technically, the ER right now -- but there is WiFi... Have laptop, will surf!

Anyway. Argh.

The last time I wrote a blog entry, I was so sure I had 22 done.

I know you can read it now, but it originally ended with the line:

"Of course I do, She's my daughter."

OK, Any of you Vietnam Era Veterans like to listen to music of the years of Vietnam War and what we heard over there go to the following Web site: http://chu65nang67.us/nam/vietnam.html . And if this brings back bad memories please don't go there but, the music is great though. Richard

A Taiwan based television show called Power Sunday dressed some young guys up as sexy girls and they performed as dancers, singers and magicians. Some of the "girls" are incredibly convincing. For example, on Youtube, type in Power Sunday and go to Parts 2 and 3 for May 3, 2009. These girl/guy segments ran from early April to mid-May on the Power Sunday show. Unfortunately it's in the Chinese language so you'll miss most of the witty repartee.

I would appreciate any help with a picture, or drawing for my contest entry.

Interesting - Australian ABC

Still treats it as a curiosity but not judgmental.

At Sephy's suggestion, I had taken a look back at my first story Homecoming Princess and found it needing to be brought up to my current writing standard. I have done quite a few stories and my skills have improved since I first wrote that a few years back. I spent close to two months rewriting this in my spare time and have written this from a new perspective. I will leave that for the readers to discover.

Hi everyone

I know there are many of you out there who enjoy the Gaby stories and would have liked to have joined us at the Gabycon last month but couldn't.

How many people base stories on dreams they've had? I had an odd one last night, got up this morning and wrote it up. I've done very little to make it make more sense but it's posted over on http://Fictioneer.org.

This kind of thing happen to anyone else?

Hugs,
Erin

As is normal for me, i do most of my reading of stories on this great site late in the evening, so that means when i come to make comments i'm kinda tired,which explains why the following morning you'll find me busy editing out all my stupid mistakes from the previous night is it just me trying to be too perfect or do other commentors do the same?

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) – Bank of America, Verizon, Chipotle and other companies have pulled advertising from a Sacramento radio station after talk show hosts referred to transgender people as "freaks" with mental disorders.

During a May 28 show, one of the three hosts on KRXQ's "Rob, Arnie & Dawn" show said he would hit his son with his shoe if he put on high heels. Another said he would tell a boy he was "a little idiot" if he asked to wear a dress.

I had a really good session with a new Electrolygist today. She is very TG friendly and even teaches her own classes. I allow her students to work on me and she gives me a reduced rate. I got to try the latest technology in Electrolysis. It uses sixteen probes at once and the current pulses at a slower rate. It is very comfortable and I was not bothered by it much at all. The other side of my face, they used the traditional single probe. It is a cakewalk compared to Laser. It felt like someone had put 100 lit cigarettes on my face. I had tears rolling down my face.

Not that I am against editage of my work, but it would be nice for it not to be a surprise and to be asked.

Not upset, mind you, it's a good job and better than what I had done....

Thank you all so much for your kind words last night. They truly helped me through a crisis in my life. I think it is sorted out for now, but I do not expect the road ahead to be much easier. Hubby and I have some really major issues to work out and I can only hope that they work out in a way that I like and that he likes as well.

We argued for almost 18 hours last night, but we wound up sleeping in each others arms.

A large part of that is due to you folks here, and for that you have my eternal gratitude.

Thanks.

I started writing a new story, I posted the first chapter on this site and on Crystals. I am enjoying the idea and writing it. How ever I wonder if this is a good idea. I havent really recieved the feedback I had hoped for. I guess many readers dont like horror with a transgender twist in it.

On crystals, I got this review: For pity's sake, let us know it's a story about vampires so we don't waste our time. "Vampire venom?" Puhlease!

I have a fairly major problem. I'm stuck in a situation I don't know how to solve. I've spent 20 years trying to be the male my husband wants me to be, demands me to be. I've come to the point where I can't stand it anymore and I don't know what to do. He has never even let me dress up in the house, apart from anyone else, because he is so against me even trying to look female.

Well, at least this time they are getting me out a dental appointment. Ax murderers behind the eyes and oozing body fluids at both ends are not a good time to go to the dentist, not to mention the choking and gagging fits. I'm going to take some pain pills and take a nap and maybe call to see my regular doctor this afternoon.

I'll be here, I'm just not firing on all cylinders.

Hugs,
Erin

I have just heard a newsflash that Danny La Rue has died at the age of 81.

There is a big fire at a tyre depot in Warsop (where Maddy Bell's Gaby comes from).

On Shortcuts! and the FFF both. Sorry about falling behind again.
