Covered Bridges.

Chapter 1

There’s times looking back that I knew I was different but really I hadn’t a clue at the time how different.

I pull my rental car into the parking lot of my old home. This is where I grew up. The driveway’s still dirt and is just this big half circle that goes from the edge of the lawn to the road. The grass is starting to reclaim it now. My House and my grandparent’s houses aren’t here anymore…Well it’s been a long time.

Chapter 3

The reports take me awhile. It’s why I guess that armies really do run on paper. I didn’t really want to do this stuff but I need to. Mom keeps refilling my coffee and Dad’s still kind of surly; I can really start to see why he hates this, why he never wanted to be part of the life. He actually shot me a sort of sympathetic sort of look and then left after looking at everyone.

Athena/Andrea is sitting with Dorian and are talking is a very foreign language save for the names of people and places that don’t fit the language I mean what ever they’re speaking stuff like “New York” doesn’t seem to translate to. I think he’s getting caught up on current events.

Follows right after Bad Moon Rising.

*Dom…..

I’m worried about Stevie and I really can’t help it. I have been completely driven to the point of insanity because of this girl. She’s laying on the backseat of the car I’m driving and she’s just staring at her hands, at the dirt and blood on her nail, naked except for a blanket tossed over her. Her hair splashed across her face like a sort of white blonde messy curtain hiding her partly from the world.

Chapter 15

*Alecia…

I leave the hospital a bit reluctantly at first heading out into the morning sunshine and not bursting into flames was…its bad fiction really, it is the re-souled vampire or Vampyre I guess according to THE GODDESS seeing the sun for the first time in so long.

I really don’t want to burst people’s bubbles but tons of vamps have seen the sunshine, most of us have and do all the time it’s just that we can’t have the sunshine actually touch us.

In the Mirror

In the Mirror

There was someone, a boy outside, a girl within denied.

One day, her parents said “we know you are a girl, Don't hide her anymore Let her out, and be free!”

“What girl?” she asked, looking in a mirror. “I don't see one”

“Look with your heart, like we do, and she is there”

She looked, her mask broke.

“I...I see her!” and she wept.

“Welcome home” They said, holding her.

“Daughter”

And the girl was free, at last.

So I want to thank Erin and her staff and everyone else who helps out for their time, hard work and sacrifice which makes this place possible. If any of my blogs or comments have caused you heartache or grief, I appologize.

I also want to thank all of the authors who stories I have read and even those authors who I have not had the time to enjoy for the hours of enjoyment they give me.

Chapter 19

I wake up and it’s mid morning and I’m feeling sleepy and lazy and really, really good as Taylor’s arms are circled around me. I love these moments, just feeling that. I almost bathe in that really femmy vibe I feel. His arm on top of me is resting in that girly spot; You know that thin spot at my waist just above my hips. I love having that spot, I love having wider hips now.

Isn't It A lovely day?

Tho' things might be frightful
Right here it's delightful
We're cozy and out of the way
And as far as I'm concerned, it's a lovely day
We're posting our stories
And there aren't any worries
So I can honestly say
That as far as I'm concerned, it's a lovely day
And everything's okay
Isn't this a lovely day?

Okay, I'm an old man and still don't know how to use my computer. That being said, I can't thank Holly Hart enough for all the hard work she has done with my latest story. She's teaching me things I never knew besides cleaning up the mess I send her to, "Just take a little look, it won't be hard." This latest part of the story is over twenty thousand words and she has been kind enough to fit me in even though she is in the middle of moving and a new job. I bestow on you, Holly, sainthood because you deserve it, Arecee

For the first time on DVD...the stylings of Roland and DiMaggio, that beloved comedy team. You may remember them from such movies as "Roland and DiMaggio go to the Specialist," "I've Been a BAAAAAD Trans-girl," "The Kid from Bayonne," and their smash hit, "Road to Thailand." Here is an exerpt of their classic routine, first presented in the movie, "The Girls with Something Extra."

Wow!

What can I say but wow?

This is the first story I have posted for like, ages and ever and there you are lapping it up like I'd never been away. I can't believe the wonderful feedback you've been giving me too.

All I can say is thank you to all of you who have read the first instalment.

Part 2 is on the way - under construction as we speak - and whether that will be the end of it I'm not sure, but I won't keep you horror-hungry readers waiting too long (Gabi willing that is).

Once again, thank you.

WOW! This has been so much fun.

Wow! I just realized that I posted my first story here just a little over a year ago. This has been a very enjoyable experience. What really surprised me is that someone is still reading the old stories and actually voting on them. Thank you whoever you are. I am so happy you are enjoying them.

Wow, thanks for the great response

I just wanted to say how shocked I was to see so many readers of my stories in less than 2 full days of having them posted. I've always been hyper-critical of anything that I've written, so it's rather surprising for them to be accepted like they appear to have been.

Thanks to all of you that have read them, thanks to all that left comments or privately emailed, and thank you especially to Gwen Brown.

Thank you all so much!

Submitted by on

Thank you all so much for your kind words last night. They truly helped me through a crisis in my life. I think it is sorted out for now, but I do not expect the road ahead to be much easier. Hubby and I have some really major issues to work out and I can only hope that they work out in a way that I like and that he likes as well.

We argued for almost 18 hours last night, but we wound up sleeping in each others arms.

A large part of that is due to you folks here, and for that you have my eternal gratitude.

Thanks.

One more letter from Sky

Submitted by on

I was just going to post this as a comment on the story, but I got worried that many of the very, very important people it was intended for would miss it, so I decided to put it over here too and increase the chances it would reach most of them.

I got this letter last night and am just passing it along to everyone.

Runway thank you

Thank you all for taking interest and commenting on this series. There have been several ideas posted as to what Brenda should do and a continuation of this story. One would be a trial, but trials don't take place for many months after the arrests. Brenda has taken care of her duties involving this case and won't be required to testify for a long bit of time.

To My Big Closet Family- I Have Returned From Court

Submitted by on

I am going to court tomorrow. It is civil, not criminal court.
I was at home, with the door open, a safety gate barring my doggies from harm.

A member of the "Green Police" called me to the door. "I" was charged with litter in the yard and abandoned vehicles.

Well, I had not been outside to patrol the yard that day, so I did not know that some "local yokel" had left several bags of litter on the side of the road.

As for the "Vehicles", they belong to my brother Randy, with whom I have the "pleasure' of living with.

Well, the yard is taken care of, but his cars are still a
