Did anyone else here grow up watching Japanese cartoons back in the day? Long before the word anime worked its way into the vernacular, "Japanimation" stormed its way into the west with such unforgetable classics as Astroboy, Prince Planet, Eighth Man and Gigantor.

Well, I've got to give Kaiser top marks again. A while back, I decided I'd like to explore a transition of sorts. While I'm sure I'll never seek bottom surgery, since I've retired, I have no need to wear men's clothes again. So in anticipation of that, I wanted to see just what kind of development I could induce on my chest. To that end, I asked my PCP (primary care physician) for an estrogen prescription. She referred me to the "Gender Pathways" clinic. After an interview with that doctor in charge of the and reviewing the permission documentation I got that prescription.

As I write this, it is bucketing rain outside, and Edmonton has a high wind warning for this afternoon with gusts up to 100 km an hour.

So today is a good day to stay inside, and I decided also a good day to release the next chapter of "Help! My girlfriend is a Unicorn!"

I know these chapters are short, which is one reason why I want to keep them coming fairly regularly so it hopefully doesnt get too annoying.

Enjoy!

It is difficult to believe (and I don't know how it got to me) but a person/group calling itself 'Christian Voice' has implicitly blamed Ariana Grande's lesbianism for the terrorist attack.
It is difficult for me to comprehend the arrogance and wrongness and vileness of such a viewpoint. I suppose it is what one might expect from such self-appointed Guardians of Virtue. I notice they fail to condemn the terrorists.

The quote from the email is as follows :-

Finally, I have published the final chapter of Tammy:It's Complicated

Sorry for the delay, but my muse went for a very long walk and it was only this morning that I felt sure I could put together a decent chapter - although that's for everyone to decide!

Meanwhile, it'll be a while before the next Tammy series (which has no title yet), but I'll first return to work on Unaccounted Gains

As repost May nears its end, it's time to make plans for the next month. Actually, this time, there's going to be more than just one month covered.

Spent lots of my life in therapy and under drugs, but quit therapy and drugs a couple years ago. Doing OK but now have to ride the ups and downs out by my own self and that's fine because the solutions of the Military therapist weren't any better than mine. Stopped going there mainly because them threatening me got old.

Working on stories seems to be as much help as anything.

It occurred to me today that being transgender isn't a problem. The biggest issue is the PTSD, BPD, Abandonment, Self Sabotage, and figurative hostage taking. Hmm, that never became clear before.

If any Australian member of this website knows about Prisoner and it's remake Wentworth then the news and magazine Women's Day has revealed that in an interview, Danielle Alexis who plays one the inmates, was born male and spends her time between Melbourne acting and Northern Western Australia managing a gym

Chapter 1 of a new story is up! I hope people will check it out, and like it!

I apologize to anyone looking for a new Winnisimmet Tales story. I had to babysit my nephew once again forcing me to lose half a day and a few dollars to his need to see the trains near his house. I then got a nasty surprise the past few days in the form of a foot injury that limited my mobility then I had that further enhanced yesterday by tweaking my hip and back muscles on the other side pretty much leaving me bedridden for the past day.

From the Guardian, an inquest report on a young transgender woman who hanged herself at Leeds Prison in 2015. It makes quite uncomfortable reading and as with so many of these cases, these youngsters have been badly treated or abused since an early age, so it appears it was the case with Thompson, who then made things worse with drugs and alcohol and petty crime as they so often do. Surely, prison was the wrong place to send anyone with such a chaotic lifestyle without some form of rehabilitation/psychotherapy?

Time for an update on my health issues. I had my third cataract surgery on Tuesday. No, I don't have three eyes. The first on my left eye didn't line up correctly, and had to be redone. I can now see perfectly ... at things that are more than five feet away. My close up vision currently sucks, and I can barely read my iPad.

This has delayed my productivity, although I did manage to do my part in getting The Wildcats chapter posted today. And I managed to get 5000 words written on River, my own story. (Wildcats is by Leslie Moore).

I enjoy music and loved the grunge sound. I was sadden today to hear that it was reported Chris Cornell, lead singer of Soundgarden and Audioslave, committed suicide last night. I don't want to preach but him doing that senseless selfish act just shows that happiness come from within. It is the ultimate act of putting one’s wants in front of other’s needs.

It was a mile south of me. Killed one, several injured, destroyed a power sub station. Elk City was without electricity. Total blackout yesterday and last night. All critical services were running on emergency generators. This particular monster started over near Shamrock Texas and came our way. Impossible to see by the storm watchers as it was wrapped in rain most of the time, leaving a debris path in its wake.

Good Afternoon All,

I hope this will do what I intended but.... As I am new to this site - who knows?

The reason for my attempt is a notation I found on my sister's computer stating someone here wanted a copy of her story,
"The Last of the Fey".

The request was likely made back around the start of the year as she died April 01 so it would not have been after that...........

at least I hope not. If it was, then that would mean she could see the future or she could leave notes on her computer post her death for me to find.

According to the Internet, and this test, I have a Master's degree. Funny thing, though. If I do, it must be invisible. Perhaps I should call my dean and have my TWO ASSOCIATES revised???

Well its been a less than exciting week so far - damp weather, trips to collect meds and parcels on Monday but otherwise I've been tied to the keyboard writing even more Gaby! Yep, I'm well into the next arc and I expect to have it finished for the end of the month.

This week however, the writing is over and advance warning - no post on Sunday as I'm taking a trip archaeological to the Brecon Beacons in south Wales, starting tomorrow.

As you all may know I posted a blog semi recently saying I was quitting writing for awhile. Well I decided to give it another try and I have made some decent progress on a few of my stories:

Broken Phoenix: This story will be making a comeback soon. I have Chapter 4 in the works and it's going steady.

Time To Fly: This story will also be making a return. My plan is to alternate between this story and Broken Phoenix every other week.

I also have a short story on the way before I post either of the previously mentioned stories.

I saw my counselor today, and it was a good session.

She believes there may be a chance for me to get some volunteer experience working with the food bank which would possibly lead to a full time job working for them.

We'll have to see how things work out.

Can someone help me figure out why my latest chapter is listed as solo. I've edited to change the page weights to different tags but I must be missing something.

Any help will be appreciated. It seems like every other chapter I post is an adventure.

I think I should take a small break from Demons for a little bit, to give my rainbows, lollipops, and unicorns happy -- fluffy meter a chance to recharge. Shouldn't be more than a week or two. I have a SOLO I'm working on, which I'll post in a few days, that hopefully will answer the oft-asked, but never answered question, Why me? It'll be up in a few days. Alicia is only half-finished, which irks me a little, as I know I promised to have it up on the 17th.

I know what the topic line says and I'll delve into it soon but first an explanation. I'm not going to talk about DAPL or anything except specifically how Native Americans have consistently been shafted throughout the history of this country, even up into the 21st century(Apache land in Arizona
being seized by the state of Arizona to give to oil companies).
What I propose here are two solutions that would work great in tandem...the first having a native American man/woman as an anchor of a

about teenager who going to a college out of state because of a controlling mother ends up shared a doom room with a girl, she starts to change him into a female . she comes from a rich family at the end they get married

It seems as if Smoky Corners has gone on permanent hiatus. That being the case, I'm making a request for it to be permanently removed from the list of contest entries for December 2016. (It can still remain on site, however, if anyone wants to read it -- maybe as an archived story, as it was my FIRST posting on BCTS...) I may do a re-write one day, but no longer feel it is of the caliber to be included among the other fine stories you received. Thank you.

Yes, here it is, the next exciting instalment of Gaby Express, the 20th book in the Gaby Saga!

Well, since it seems that my worst fears about chapter 2 of "Case file 2: the Profiler" were in fact less than the reality, and the chapter has gone over like a lead balloon, I'm going to publish the third and final chapter now, and end the story.

Sorry it disappointed people. Sometimes, I guess, some ideas I have just dont fly.

Thanks to all the folks who P.M.'d me. ....kind of a 'wellness check'.

I'm fine. My muse..... seems to be M.I.A.

Against my better judgement, I'm a few keystrokes away from posting the stuff I've been holding back. It feels forced and ...not good enough.... to post.

Still, the need to prove that I haven't been 'slacking off' is overpowering my lack of confidence in the stuff I'm ....laboriously... cranking out. When entwined with the muse, things just ....flowed.

The following is a great surprise to me. I had known that Shia Muslims were supportive to transgender folk, however this is a surprise.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/transgender-mus...

I have put up chapter 2 of my new story "Case File 2: The Proflier:" but a word of warning.

The chapter contains a moment of forced sex.

I didn't really want to do include it, but eventually decided that the chapter needed the moment to show how dangerous the villain was.

I have done my best to make it readable, but please use caution if you are at all sensitive to the subject.

If you make it through the story, I'd love to hear what you thought of it.

Huggles ahead of time.

I thought I would give a little heads up to anyone following my ongoing stories, and for newcomers to them as well. First of all, I'd like to thank anyone and everyone who has shown support and encouragement. I've had some rough patches, and times where it looked like new writing would never come. So I truly appreciate anyone who stuck with, and continues to stick with my stories. Especially the Bailey saga. I'll try to keep new updates coming with it, as I enjoy going back to those characters.

Not long ago there was a serial story here about a transgender woman who returned home with a child that she had fathered through a surrogate. She was apparently quite well off and was making progress with reconnecting with her family, although some were viciously bigoted and obscenely unfriendly. She had met someone who seemed to be romantically interested.

Then I lost track. I don't know if the story was completed or if the author lost interest. Anyone know what happened? Obviously, I have forgotten the name.

Well, I didn't get the job. Didn't even make the cut to go to the third interview.\

Ah, well. At least I tried.

And as the job was going to be mostly door-to-door sales, I'm not heartbroken over not getting it.

OK, so I was up rather late last night watching a wonderful little anime series called Sister Princess, about a boy who fails his high school entrance exam, due to a computer glitch, and is exiled to an island paradise. Upon arrival, he discovers he has a quite large family of sisters (12 in all) he never knew existed. So I was wondering if I could put a spin on the story, and see what would become of it if the characters had been all born male, and as a warped sense of punishment, they had been transformed -- slowly -- by the island into the girls they now were.

Samantha, Samantha, Where for arte thou Samantha?

Tis allergies and my nose is blown ....

Just wondering if anyone has seen Torey & Amethyst at all

I was having trouble with my HP printer. I went on-line to their site and got a dialog box. They informed me that a tech would be calling in a few minutes.

When the person called, I was having trouble understanding what he said, but he wanted to check my computer. I reminded him my computer was fine and he insisted, so I relented. Soon, he had control of my computer and found the problem in my processor? He said he'd fix it, but it would take 60 to 90 minutes.

No more writing while angry for me. I can't believe how many simple memory lapses I have had in my stories simply because I was so focused on writing that I wasn't thinking about he characters, the situations, what I had written just two days before, where I wanted to go in the story, etc.

An apology to the loyal readers of "All the World's a Stage" - I'm not trying to drag out the suspense (promise!) but I may not post Chapter 51 today as it's not finished nor checked over. I'll try to post in a day or two, or by some miracle it might still appear today!

Big, huge, enormous news!

I ... have an interview tomorrow. For a job.

What's really cool was that although I had to put my male name on my resume, I included Dorothy as my preferred name, and that's the name the lady who contacted me used.

I am going to be a bit of a nervous wreck so huggles appreciated!
