Chapter 14 - The Secret Spreads

By the time Polly and Sheila reached Rosemary's door, Polly was getting nervous. Very nervous. The day had gone surprisingly well. As one more anonymous girl wandering the aisles of the thrift shops, Polly was taken for just what she wanted to be: a teenage girl. Sheila's comment about people seeing what they wanted to see was very true. But now she was going to meet someone who knew Sheila well, and actually talk to her. If things went as planned she was going to change back to being Pete in this girl's house, there would be no secrets between them.

Memory and Memories - Part 1
by Armond

Pestilence and shadows stalk the Seven Kingdoms - mysterious plagues have swept the nations, a renegade mad alchemista seeks to develop a doomsday weapon, and the Alarians – the Elves - have sent out their best spies to track him down. Yet Aesh, the young alchemista student, knows none of this – all he wants is to pass his final exam and become a Master. A vengeful goddess has a different journey in mind for him, and being swept away by the greatest sorceress in the lands and a honest to gods giant, turns out to be the least strange thing that happens to him.

(Author’s note -well, notes - I will be posting this story in three parts, all of which are already written. Also, an amazing editor helped me with the rewrites, and I wish I could name him so you could know who he is, but he wishes to remain anonymous. So, to my unnamed editor, thank you from the bottom of my heart)

Chapter 13 - Acquiring a Wardrobe

Fashion accessories may be one of the hardest subjects for a novice crossdresser to grasp. After all, most males have little choice in such matters, Even those of a more unrestricted outlook on life basically have three choices: ties, rings and, if so inclined, earrings. As a student, Pete only wore a tie under protest on Sunday mornings when his Grandmother was going to be present at church. His class ring was the only adornment on his fingers, and it was big and clunky as such things are wont to be. Earrings were still out of the picture, although he was pretty sure that one of the first things Polly would do on the way to her new job was to have her ears pierced, and the heck with what happens in the fall when Polly had to go into storage.

Erica continues to recover while Olivia and Angela settle down to a hopefully safe life at the canal cottage.

First I should mention a caveat as far as Halloween goes. It used to fall on October 31 in ancient times but since the new world took hold a few hundred years ago, the calendar has been changed to a strict 364 day schedule so everything always falls on the same day of the week, thus now Halloween takes place on October 28 which is always a Saturday to allow the kids to go trick or treating basically.

CHAPTER 29
They featured on the front page, as well as in what seemed like half the rest of the paper. It was a style of reporting I had already come to recognise and despise: a story too shocking for their readers, see pages 2-26 plus special colour supplement.

It wasn’t quite as bad as that, but there was a lot to read. Mam set out a couple of camping chairs, Rosie sitting beside me as I read. Dear god, and I had thought my time with the bastards had been a taste of hell. It seemed I had been given an easy time, compared with what I read.
