Borrowed this character from a person I met early in my career who was descended from the Tancred's of North Yorkshire. He was a unique character with a personality never to forget. He was not a bounder or a cheat but he was a character.

I almost had this chapter of Necessity done last night, but try as I might life had other plans. I'd no sooner get off one call of someone calling to say happy birthday when someone else would call to wish me the same.

I was even interrupted in the grocery store twice by the phone as I was buying the ingredients to make my Nuclear meltdown Chili. (In my defense I have two friends and one daughter that also think the heat level is perfect too)

Luckily I found this morning free of interruptions and was able to type in the needed HTML and get chapter 3 posted :)

got a new story up. No it isnt the Holmes and Watson one.

I will be publishing Who the Hell am I? Book 2 on Kindle and in order to have it in the Kindle unlimited category, I need to remove it from this site. I thought it would be nice to give advanced warning before I remove it and figured this would be the easiest way to do that. In two days time, I intend to ask Erin to unpublish all but the first two chapters.

Happy reading.

I have to share this and there is a link to the org in there too

NOT MINE!....but funny!

because it's worth it in spades. A little slow start, but a ROFL story.

Neighborhood Hazard (Or: Why the Cops Won't Patrol Brice Street)

I never dreamed slowly cruising through a residential neighborhood could be so incredibly dangerous!

I've talked here about how my stories have a life of their own, and in the case of one story I'm working on, it may be a Frankenstein's monster.

See, it started with me tossing around some ideas for my anniversary, and one was to do a little series of tributes to my favorite (non-Big Closet) authors, starting with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and his best know creation, Sherlock Holmes.

11 years and 9 days ago anyone would have said that my parents had 5 children 4 boys and 1 girl February 15 2008 I split the family when I came out as transgender.

"I'm In Your Head" by Kris just popped up for me in the Random Solo box on the front page. What are the chances?

Just giving you guys a quick update on my writing:

I've almost got one story finished, its called "sympathetic magic", and I'm shooting for having it published by next weekend. I also have a mystery story underway, so stay tuned on that one.

Other than those two, I've been mulling over some ideas for my upcoming anniversary, not making a lot of progress.

Sorry, but a bout of PTSD plus being tired from Real Life (TM) has eaten away most of my writing spoons, so that I've had any writing done at all is a bit of a miracle, honestly.

Huggles to all who want one.

For those that are moving their stories to Amazon I have a request. Please leave a note behind saying that they were removed to post on Amazon. Otherwise it isn't ckearcwgat* has happened. The story may not be coming up due to Internet problems or other reasons. If it is known what happened then it saves time and effort checking back or checking other sites.

*Edit Should have been "clear what"

I'm on a mailing list that has some really great writer stuff. If you haven't seen this before, it's looks like a great book for authors. It's a free online book.

Write Your Novel Step by Step, By Melanie Anne Phillips

You can also "Browse Our (their) Library" of writing articles.

Saw this story on the news feed and immediately thought of Nancy Cole's "The Legend of Alfhildr"

I just posted Chapter 20 and had intended this be the concluding part of this story. The hits are not high for each chapter but the kudos is encouraging so I've continued to keep the pace the same and hopefully complete in a few more chapters. Sorry for those waiting for the end but I've endeavoured to post Chapters more frequently than I've done with previous stories.

Hey everyone! First and foremost I want to thank everyone who read and commented on Allison's Pledge; you guys are awesome. Since that's over I want to move on to the next big thing which is Woodcrest. There are a few things that you need to know about it, which are the following:

1. While similar to Allison's Pledge it was written first and is a much more detailed story

2. Unlike Allison's Pledge the story is designed to introduce even more themes of moral ambiguity and to make you question whether or not you even like your favorite characters

For all those who have been following the story of Ren Nagata in Interview with a Lolita. It is with a heavy heart that I must inform you all that I will not be continuing this story for a while. I have gone through 5 rewrites of the next chapter and none of them have the right feel. Sadly I must take a step back from the story for several reasons.

I have written a story in several chapters which I'm about to complete, it's about a British POW in a German POW camp. They actually formed amateur dramatic societies with males playing the female roles and they were very professional and the 'girls' very convincing.

My story involves a young flyer who joins the am dram society with a view to becoming proficient at passing enfemme. Of course once he starts down that slippery slope he finds that he likes being feminized for other reasons too but let's not give away too much of the story before it's posted.

I wanted to share the story of my name change.

It all began not long after I began my transition, and discovered that if I wanted surgery, I would have to change my name. Which would have been difficult, because I was deep in debt, and didnt have the money it would take.

That changed when Walmart outsourced my department, and paid me out, giving me a about four thousand dollars.

With the money issue solved, I sent away to New Brunswick for a copy of my birth certificate, which I would need to start the ball rolling.

Jolin Tsai has always been pretty outspoken in her support for LGBTQ people (from a non-western / taiwanese standpoint / view) in her music. Although most of her songs (according to what I have heard /s een of them) are gay or lesbian themed, her last one is T related.

PS Chinese with subtitels.

I'm having trouble accessing some websites. For example, I'm able to access this site but the Whately Academy site is timing out. Also SOL (stories on line) storiesonline.net is timing out. There are some other sites, like gamesgames and agame that are timing out. So, can anyone give me a clue as to why some sites are timing out and others (like this one) are not?

Disabled Alexa on portable devices, still sends conversations to Amazon.

This warning is primarily for those who have Alexa capable portable devices and are not using Alexa.

Well, I FINALLY got my modified birth certificate.
still says Male
but at least the name is right

Does anyone find a story idea in this?

A Rare Bird Indeed: A Cardinal That’s Half Male, Half Female

"I'ts left side is the taupe shade of female cardinals; its right, the signature scarlet of males.

I want to thank everyone who has read “Are You Happy?”

Like “The Best Damn Thing” there are a lot of auto-biographical situations within the story.

Here is the chapter list. I hope to have it completed soon so I can try to complete the other “starters” I have left on the battlefield.

The lady has moved from True Romance and into Action. Not everyone is going to be pleased. However if she doesn't put the action into her action story she is going to lose those who would read and or purchase her story. Those who follow her romance stories may or may not like the inclusion of the reality of life, violence, murder, suffering in her story.

"IF" one wishes to appeal to the broadest readership then they must write to include the whole story not truncate parts which don't appeal to a few select readers.

I havent seen any new stories from Morpheous either here or on whatley. Anyone know if he/she is okay?

I was looking at my account info the other day, and realized that in about 3 months, I will be celebrating my 10th anniversary of being a member here.

And so I've been thinking about how I might knowledge this milestone with a story.

Right now, I'm not sure what I might do. I've got one small piece almost finished that might help me avoid not having anything to share for the next three months, but beyond that ...

I could do something like Randalynn's "Convergence: when stories collide", but I'm not sure what stories would make the cut.

Just a quick question. Ho does on add a signature to one's messages and blogs? Could not find that in the FAQ.

Who the Hell am I? Book1 is now available on Amazon - Yay.

Just ran across this on a website (nostraightnews.com). What Do We Do About Women With A Penis Interesting reading.

https://www.nostraightnews.com/what-do-we-do-about-women-wit...

Some of you may know this, most of you probably don't, but I've mentioned here in comments that I was afraid for my job. Well, it appears, just as I feared, that I will be getting laid off by April.

Here's a situation: I've named a certain character Orville. Yet for some reason, I always think of him as "David", and have to forcibly correct myself.

Has this happened to others? Does it often happen?

I think that anyone who wants to can follow the "Jazz Story", and it seems to me like there is a lot of hype going on, but to be fair, perhaps she is having problems?

I have never seen a Trans girl look as good and sound as good as her. Is that what a lot of coaching and surgery can do or is she actually Intersex? At any rate, I wish her the best.

Since I finished my pathfinder story, I've rally been missing Tiffany, aka crazypagangurl, who was a big help in the making of the tale.

Rest in peace, my friend.

I'm a mediocre writer at best, and that fact finally penetrated.

It does appear as if my passion is activism and I spend hours at it every day. Mostly, I blog under a number of different names, about Transgender and Intersex issues, but my real love is researching Belief and the Anthropology of its prehistory. Of course there is the inevitable interference with some Political or Environmental issue, but I won't even attempt to bring any of that in here.

I have posted "2 Women, 2 Children, 2 dogs." It is the start of "How I Became Crossgender."

I was going through the Author Directory the other day and I noticed several no longer have any content for them, when there was before. Like StacyInLove for example. Did these Authors request removal and if so are they now up for sale somewhere else or gone for good.

I have always suffered from Deja Vu. I don't know why, but I often feel like I'm repeating something that has already happened. I've even made a story about it: https://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/fiction/19220/falling

I wonder if its related to PTSD?

I'm sick. Tuesday I discovered a rash under my left arm. At the time, I was suffering from a muscle pull in the same region and felt more pain from that.

Thursday, it became obvious the rash was shingles. I've got meds now and the pain meds make me sleepy and at least two other dwarves.

Meanwhile, Piper and Amy are also sick. I think theirs are colds. Jamie is sick, too.

Forgive us if we are a little slow on updating this week.

Hugs (carefully),
Erin and the gang

I think I've worked through the block that was keeping me away from here.

At least assuming we're not gonna see any entries from Japan/China.

As a reminder, everyone has until the end of February to do their reading and voting (these were a bit longer than your average contest entry story after all!) I'll announce contest winners at the end of the first week or so of March!

Thanks again to everyone who entered the contest. It's been really special to me seeing how enthusiastic everyone, both readers and authors, have been about this one, and I'm really glad we all did this together.
