Nine years ago I posted a very short story titled "No More Distance, No More Time".

https://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/fiction/19873/no-more-distanc...

For a while now the main character has been kicking at various neurons in my brain saying: "You gave me short shrift!"

Hello out there,

I hope you're all doing well this evening.

I haven't really been writing and kind of feel guilty about it. You see I've been working with a group near me and we're making a short film. I wrote the script, am Directing it and am doing the Cinematography.

We have two more days of prep till we start filming and we aren't even making any money for doing it. We are on such a low budget that we need to do a potluck for the cast/crew. I'm going to bring my famous chili which happens to be a vegan chili btw.

So BigCloset and surrounding is basically my full time job. I spend time buidling websites, tuning our site and others hosted by us, ressurecting sometimes forgoten projects that have been neglected over time, and try to think of ways to reduce costs, and/or increase revenue.

But like everyone else, I sometimes need to do "something else".

So as many of you know, I got really intersted in Photography (read as, fell down the photography rabbit hole).

Most recently, Cat, Myself, Amy and the NinjaBaby attendted the Atlantic City Airshow and so I figured I would share a few pictures with you.

Hello out there,

I wanted to let you all know that I did a very minor update to the 'Adrian' book.

So because of you fantastic people, I decided to write a new introduction for Adrian. It's right after the prologue.

So the change is pretty important.

It does five things:

Just when you think everything is good and nothing else bad can happen, something else slaps you in the face. I was just informed this morning that I have until the 15th of September to get both my dogs vaccinated and licensed because the city is doing a consensus. If I had been told about this at the beginning of the month, I would have been fine. As it is, Kindle has not been kind lately. I had to use last month's kindle money to pay for bills and the tiny amount I'm getting this month won't even pay for one vet visit. I'm NOT sure what I'm going to do now....

I really enjoy stories that are well written, and are NOT Fanfic. I love writers who use their own brains and imaginations.

It was nine years ago, on this day, that I succeeded in my custody case and brought my daughter back to the town I now live in.

Thank you all for the fabulous insights. I have decided to post it here first and then if all of you like it I will publish it somewhere I can get a printed copy. Maybe be Doppler Press would be interested? Hint hint.

I am in final edit. I was going to change the location, taking the story outside of Silicon Valley but I think I will leave it as is. The corporation is Googlesque but it is located in Palo Alto instead of Mountain View and the timing is set 9 years from now.

Here is the tentative chapter list:

1. Soak Up the Sun
2. Steve McQueen
3. All I Wanna Do
4. Light In Your Eyes
5. Every Day Is a Winding Road
6. My Favorite Mistake
7. Strong Enough
8. If It Makes You Happy
9. Picture
10. Sweet Child o’Mine

Is the story any good as it stands?

This is referring once again to LadyDragon623's blog so it doesn't get too far down the line where no one notices it.
We bring up a lot suspicion, dislike and hate from so many people when we are less than one percent of the total population.
Have faith and heart, God loves us. That isn't heresy. I was there when I was sixteen.

Hello out there,

I know I should probably be working on Adrian stuff but putting my mind into a 13-year-olds point of view is a bit tiring.

So I've been working on converting one of my stories from a 3rd person point of view to a 1st person point of view.

I don't know if it'll ever make it here mostly because the main character is not trans and I don't know if stories about cis people are allowed here.

Dear readers and fans,

I am close to completing my latest novel, Deimos. Here is the summary:

That's what the gate guard at work said to me this morning. It just keeps on happening and it's happening more often. Second time this week. Happened last week once. Happened the week before once.

I show up to work which is a high security government installation. I have to go through a security checkpoint which has guards posted because it's a high security installation. I have to show the guards my government issued ID which has my legal male name on it and they do look at it.

Greetings from Kalmar in Sweden!

Hello out there.

My names Katherine and I'm happy to meet everyone here.

I am a transwoman myself and have gone through a lot this year. From a Breast Cancer scare, my Grandmother dying, my 14-year-old cat dying, and writing this book.

It all started Back in October of 2018 I found a lump on my right breast. It took my doctor a series of tests and 5 months to tell me that the lump was benign.

Earlier this week, I was informed by a very nice person via my fan mail account for
Sarah Lynn Morgan, that in perusing a listing of TG Romance fiction on Amazon,
that they had run into a work that looked suspiciously familiar:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07VTRWS6D/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b...

It is a word for word copy, with a global replace on a couple of the main character names.
Chris Morgan, has become Christian Morgenstern... etc.

I think I'm going into Gaby withdrawel, hehe. I know she's some moving things to deal with, if I remember correctly from her last blog post, but I miss reading Gaby. Don't stay away too long.

A few days ago, I read a story on Big Closet that left me feeling a bit perplexed.

The story was well-written and the author has every right to explore the genre as she wishes.

Yet – I wish she had picked another premise or I had not read her story,
which shoved me back into the old argument as to whether cross-dressing is a mental disorder.

I'm reading "The Trials And Tribulations of a Girl" for the second time, and had a little trouble connecting with the idea of a Boy who can look like a Girl. Well there is Andrej Pejic, who has transitioned, but I thought they were quite rare. I had the problem but after about 9 years old...

I am watching a YouTube video about a tractor show and here is another one! This is very surprising to me. I think he could look like a girl with just a change of clothes, some light makeup, and perhaps a wig? Wow, just wow!

This is my second one in 6 days.

In a TG social site one of the girls mentioned GG go through hormone cycles every month. Well duh, that's a give. She went on, the purpose was to give the estrogen receptors in their body a chance to reset. Otherwise the receptors become tired and accept less and less estrogen over time. Her next comment kind of caught me off guard. MtF transgender also need to take monthly breaks for the estrogen receptors to utilize the estrogen they are putting into their body.

No chapter this week. I wanted to write another chapter this week to make a bigger buffer. It didn't work out. I'm hoping to get that chapter written sometime this week so if I do, I'll try posting Ch.7 afterward.

Well, just when I thought maybe I was done as a writer, my muse came back.

Check it out, it you wanna: https://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/fiction/80564/skater-grl

Well I just wanted to thank everyone for reading my first story! I hope everyone has enjoyed it so far and will enjoy the last chapter. Now will come a period where I'll work on proofreading and such. As a number of you have suggested it is actually a book worthy effort I'm going to look into it. Have no fear, I'm not eager to rush into this, so this story won't be going anywhere in the near future...

BBC Scotland Story

Murray Hall was born in Glasgow and lived a lot of his life in NYC where he was a politician, a bail bondsman and many other things.
The only problem was that Murray was female and lived for 60 years as a man until his death from cancer in 1901.

What a great story.

A school Teacher volunteered to review two chapters of a story that is dear to my heart. "Hala's Snow Day", and "Cowgirl Hala". I knew that she was a feminist, and a radical one at the start of this. So I should have known, really.

So, the time is almost here to visit the other land of my fore fathers, Sweden.

So i'm joining the U.S. Army my life hit an all time low. I quit smoking and drinking awhile back.

A number of months ago I posted story that probably went bit too far. It wasn't the TG content. It was my expressing my discontent with the current political situation in the US. I also went into great detail about the genetics of magic, trying to keep it as realistic as possible. This was not important for my stories. The readers didn't really care about this; however. it was important for the construction of the stories. The readers just didn't need to know the details. These stories aren't a Perry Mason crime story. They are just stories.

I have another ebook available for sale at Amazon

And it is likely the penultimate chapter! I've been really enjoying writing this, hopefully the first of my stories, but it will soon reach its conclusion. So... Has it been worth the read? One of the readers, Sara Hawke, offered some helpful critiques (thank you for the respectfully presented opinions Sara :-) ). Are there others? Questions unanswered? Did you like the world I created?
How about the writing style in general? I honestly would like them as it will hopefully help with future efforts.

Sorry, there's no Tammisode today as I'm rewriting the chapter before even Snowfall gets a look at it.
Normal service will resume next weekend, probably!

Just had to post this after watching over 4 hours the making of Star Wars documentaries.

If you are a HUGE Star Wars fan....stop now, because the story is not a happy ending for you!

Well, back in the mid 90's I worked at a place in the Hollywood biz that used to do 'The Gong show' among dozens of others in its long past and now we did award shows Oscars, Emmys and others.

Well, today I had to buy a blood sugar monitor, and will have to poke myself every morning. sighs ...

I came on line here some time ago at the suggestion of one of the better authors. I don't say much. I can never say the right thing and I get misunderstood or embarrassed. Or, someone has already said what I was thinking. So, hitting the "KUDOS" button is often the extent of my comments. Many of the authors are extremely good and I enjoy the lighter, sweet and sentimental stories. Some of the science fiction is also very good. I also have some favorites as authors go.

Due to a recent comment, I’ve been thinking about writing rules.

My main writing rule is this – I keep writing and re-writing a story until I think it’s the best story I’ve ever written.

For your friendly, neighborhood narcissist, abiding by this rule can be a daunting task. . .but I try.

I’d be curious to hear what “writing rules” other BC authors have.

Your beloved "rule-r,

Jill

Just making sure that folks know about this. In my most drunken and deluded fantasies, I am no computer geek, though I had a couple stories stolen years ago. -- Gwen

Some people have reported on social media that their stories have appeared on http://kisslibrary.com without permission. Since this is a site that sells ebooks, it could be a problem. They do have forms for asking for DMCA take downs.

Be aware.

I dont want to scare people, but if this stupid blog is gonna have any meaning it has to be honest. And honestly last night was one of the worst nights I've had in a long while. I'm actually surprised I didnt do any of the ideas that came into my head ...

Dammit! Someone used my story's title!!

Ah, but wait... His story series is actually called "Singularity Point," and only the first book is named "Shepherd Moon," whereas my series is called "Shepherd Moon," which is named after the first book.

've been reading a pretty awesome webcomic called Girl genius. Link is here: http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20021104

So here we are again.

Well the initial shock of Thursday has subsided so I can be a little more rational now. Just to recap, I got home from my ride Thursday afternoon to find my home of 30+ years had been repossessed, literally at that point my possessions ran to what I was wearing and the bike! Not a good place to be for sure.

First of all, I'm so terribly sorry to every language purist on both sides of the pond. I've committed the awful offence of creating a new word,

'Brimerican'

On the 18th of June 2019 I posted the first full chapter of 'Cassandra' and asked all of you for your help.

I have started working on a revised version of You Are a Meany. The differences in this version are I am going more into character development, giving more details on Luke youth, the sentences to be easier to read and less of simple grammatical and typing errors.

As I'm sure some of you may have noticed, Hello My Name Is... is no longer available to read on this site. I would have liked to keep the story up here a bit longer but my other books have run out of steam selling wise on Kindle and I have bills to pay.

According to my account page, I have been on this site for 4 years and 6 months. So around februari 2015.

A lot has happened in that time. There was of course a reason I found and joined this site.

By Christmas 2915 I knew that I needed to do something.
And I did,
By Christmas 2017 I was legally me, Anne, Female.
By Christmas 2018 I was on hormones for half a year.
By Christmas 2019? With some luck I may have had SRS then...

Today I turned fifty years old..

Thank you BCTS

Solution discovered to the problem with my Windows not updating, it was the hard drive. It's in the early stages of dying. So alas, I can't afford to replace it until September. So no Stuck in a Rut for a while, it seems. I'm on a loaner laptop, so I can still pop in and read my favorite authors, at least.
