BUT, I feel that I should. I want to draw attention to Angharad's Bike series to the many readers that have come here from FM. When she first posted the series, I thought, this isn't for me.

Something New.
I'm working on a story which will be a one off, unless I post it in two parts. It will be different from anything else I've written and darker than my usual stuff. It's also a crime story.
One of those days
You ever had one of those days where you wake up and roll over to look at the clock and scream because you're going to be late for work so you jump out of bed and rush around in a blind panic trying t
Taking a step back
Those few of you who were following my writing project have probably already guessed this, but ... I'm putting my writing on hold for awhile.

AOL News weighs in on Kim Petras story

If you can access it there are two poles:
Should someone Petras' age be allowed to undergo a sex-change operation?
status report: Accidental Magic.
I am sorry for the lack of updates, but I've rewritten chapter 20 now nearly three times because I keep writing it into a place I don't want it to go.
Rules for writers-NOT!
I'm not a writer, I should have taken English as a Second Language, or at least Remedial English. If these were offences I'd be on death row!
Personally, I miss him
I have a message from Nick B
He said he was sorry that he just dropped off the map and left without finishing stories or saying goodbye properly.

Voting Has Ended for the Terry Awards
Voting for the 2008 Terry Awards has ended.
This contest didn't work out for selecting individual winners but there will be future nominations for Best Story Lists. Keep an eye out for them. You never know when they'll pop up.
All Of A Sudden
Erin,
I know you warned us but I was almost watching it. 5,000,000 hits on January 31 at this end of the world. I went out for dinner and when I came back it was over.
WOW,

Just Tried To Vote
I just tried to leave a vote for Princess And Plague 5 and the screen went blank. I am wondering what caused it? It was just solid white. The "comments" button worked fine.

Gang; I just got an e-Mail from Angel saying she just got out of the hospital from emergency surgery and has been there since the 31st of December.
Random Thoughts
- The most boring time in the world is waiting for the story you just wrote to come back from the editor you sent it to. Time crawls too slowly.
Thanks to everyone who read, voted and/or commented on Desert Misstake
I want to say thank you very much. As I said, this is a story which, I hope, will be just the first of what will be nothing but complete stories from me, from now on.

Patting Myself On the Back
Yesterday I "ran" the Sisterhood Shabbat service at my synagogue here by having the other ladies do the various readings necessary to follow the service. Most of it went well.
Greetings all
Good evening everyone and thanks for reading. My name is Lana and I'm a tad bit of a closeted sissy.
I Must Apologise About Warsop
I accidently sent a copy of chapter 6 for chapter 8 to Maddy and did not catch it until a reader saw it. I want to thank that reader for catching that error.
Saunier Duval.
It occurred to me, that those non-cyclists who read Bike, might not have a clue what I'm talking about when I mention Saunier Duval (a cycling team - now defunct) and David Millar, a British rider who
5,000,000th
Sometime during the evening of January 31, 2009, TopShelf will register the five millionth visit in a period of three years, seven and one half months. Also, that day is likely to see BCTS to go over 1/3 million (333,333) visits for the month of January.
Would Begging Help?
Here I am again, begging for votes instead of nominations. As of late today, Jan. 24th, only four people have voted, including myself. That's not nearly enough for a fair tally. There are a lot of very good stories that really do deserve recognition so I hope to see a lot more votes soon.
The beginning of a new life, free from cigarettes
Yesterday I finally obtained a prescription for the anti-smoking drug, Chantix. This morning I took my first pill. I have set a date to finally be off cigarettes. March First is the date.
I'm Just a Bit Curious
I check my stories listing several times a day, when I can, to see if there are any comments that need to be replied to.
Easy As Starting Up A Mountain.
I see from the list of my stories, that Bike's initial episode has passed 8500 hits. So hardy souls are still taking the long ride to catch up with the present.
Kate Craig-Wood in the Guardian.
After her appearance on Midweek (BBC Radio4) a few weeks ago, she's now in Guardian Weekend - the Guardian's glossy magazine, with a far from flattering photo.

Sephrena, my fiancee has decided to take a one week break mew.
Unfinished Story Posting...
So I am planning to post a few chapters of a story that there is a REALLY good chance will never be finished.
Angela Morely, conductor and arranger - an obituary
There was a very nice obituary written for this very talented transsexual conductor and arranger, in today's Guardian, link below.
Logging In
I am having trouble logging in. When ever I type my pass word, nothing happens. I just get sent back to the home page without being logged in.
Story Link Database?
This comes from a suggestion on Crystal's Cyberboard about an indexable story link database.
Eric. You want the "back story?" Here it is.
When I started writing Luck Be A Lady, it was begun as a take-off on an idea presented to me by Prudence Walker. When I began telling the tale, I had an ending in mind.
A Promise To The Readers and Fans
Because of the recent happenings,and because I don't feel right about it, I will no longer post ANY work,here or anywhere else, unless it's completed.
Ten days and counting.
For all those who have gone before, when do the butterflies settle down?
Another author gone
Another author has removed her stories from BC. I can only guess as to a reason since I was not offered one, nor offered the opportunity to unpub stories rather than them be deleted.
This hurts me deeply.
Private Payments
A few weeks back there was a bit of dialogue about making payments (to Hat box)that remain anonymous and protect payer from other exposure (e.g. credit card statements).
Computer Virus
While I was washing up after dinner, my computer anti-virus software picked up a nasty, which it has dealt with. I have no idea whence it came, any more than I understand the minds which create them.
A Great Speech
I just watched America's new President give his acceptance speech.
Recommendations
I do a lot of reading, and I mean a LOT of reading. Sometimes, though, I have trouble finding stories I haven't read that fit the theme I'm in the mood for, even after searching the categories.
A warning to readers and fans, about Luck Be A Lady.
While I might be cutting my own throat, hit and comment-wise with this, I feel it's only fair to let everyone know that Luck Be A Lady is incomplete, ending with Chapter 8.

This is a sad time for transgendered fiction
Fictionmania is down, who knows for how long. Few more days perhaps at the best but thats what was said already a few weeks ago.
Ummmm.... why?
Ummm why do they call them sissies? Doesn't that mean likes your big sissie, or your little sissie?
Privacy; A Warning
I had a facebook account that I had totally forgotten about; never used it; real name and everything. Well, both my granddaughters found me there, but then it degraded to the usual stuuupid crap.

At last I got the next chapter of Maiden finished, and it's waiting to be posted at the site I always give precedence to with this story. Once it's posted there, I'll be putting it up here.

Thank you
Thank you everyone who has helped. It is so wonderful and you are so wonderful.
