Sometimes, I get ideas in my head and I say to myself, I say "Keith," Keith is the name I was given at birth and the one I generally go by outside of online (otherwise known as real life), "this is brilliant and sure to work. Your problems will be solved and you can go on to whatever next big thing is on the horizon."

So, a few months ago, I hatched a plan. I saw how it was suppose to play out, and, like most things, I planned to see it through.

Does anyone know hairstyles well?
I'm looking for a medium-long length style that is slightly feminine, but could pass for androgynous and would be appropriate for work.
Also what would I would need to ask for such as perm, ect, and about how much will it cost?

Well, last night I got to work a little early, and there was a teen girl who works as a cashier on the evening shift in the back on a break who decided completely out of the blue that I was just the right person to ask for advice about a boy at school.

I listened, and thought, and then gave her my advice:

Be yourself.

Be awesome, be real, be smart, be goofy, be nerdy, be super feminine or a tomboy when the mood strikes you.

Dont try and impress him.Try and impress yourself.

Dont be afraid to take the first move but be prepared that he could reject you.

Be okay with that.

Well, I've been able to write more. I have more chapters of the stories I have been writing coming.

Sgt. Greg of the Sissy Series has a new chapter coming. I got about 35% of it written and just have to keep going.
More Catwoman. I have about 15% of the next Catwoman story coming.
I have more Maid to be a Man with Maid Mia done, it just has to be edited now. It's 100% of Chapter 5, about 15% of Chapter 6.

Other than that, working and doing what I need to.

Okay it's a given I wuz a weird kid. Anyway, see I was poking about on various forums I visit and came across this one. It has absolutely nuthin' to do with TG but is pure Rock n Roll in the classic sense. A tribute to Deep Purple Machine Head by a bunch a contemporary guys and this one is the bees knees. That means damn good, okay.

Okay since Shaun.v has already kinda sorta mentioned FreeRIDErs, I'll go ahead and put in my two cents. FreeRIDErs is a series of stories that is currently being posted over at Shifti.org. It takes place in the far future on another planet called Zharus which is a type of super-earth. Bigger than Earth but with similar gravity due to lesser density.

It is very much an anime style tale with animal styled powered-armor that uses nanites to help merge the AI armor and human pilot into one form. There are a lot of gender changes in the stories as a whole, although not every story has TG.

So anyway ....

I am not sure how many readers might like or want this, but I added a link to a PDF version of my Whisper story on the Whisper Title Page.

One of these days I will have to find someone willing to draw me a "book cover" since I am reluctant to try using "free" images found on the web.

Happy birthday Bronwen Welsh, I wish you all the happiness you deserve, and have many more returns of the day, From one good friend to another, With love Carla Bay:):)

She's one of the nicest people you'll ever want to meet and such a dear. She welcomed me into her heart, and I've been her Li'l Sis 'Drea since I got here! Please join me in wishing her a happy birthday, won't you?

Love you, NeeNee, with all my heart!!!

My book "Fool Moon" received a review from "Bending the Bookshelf" (http://bibrary.blogspot.com/2012/06/review-fool-moon-by-kari...) in June. There was some correspondence back and forth and apparently this Monday, September 17th, I'm having an interview, of sorts, to be posted on the main site (http://bibrary.blogspot.com/). It's a compilation of some Q&A from my emails and I can only hope I don't sound like an egotistical goof.

Well, no more than usual ...

Anyone have a copy of Paintshop pro that they no longer need. This is not piracy. I had bought paint shop pro and installed it on my old computer. I have since lost both the computer and the cd (i think i left it in the cd rom drive because it was the last thing i installed or it could've been stolen). I really like using the program to make my cover graphics. If anyone could help. Thanks.

I just finished writing a story in which a slightly fictionalized version of me goes back to her hometown to re-connect with the people she left behind, and to lay ghosts to rest.

In the process, as I wrote a scene where she reconciled with her step-father, I felt a weight lift from me, as if I had managed to do the same in real life.

Maybe it was just fiction, but somehow, it felt like I actually accomplished something.

Make of that what you will.

Hello Everyone,

As noted in one of my comments to a comment, Denise and I have finally decided the following material should be presented as a blog. Should Erin’s little Elves decide it would better serve the site as a FAQ or forum topic or ???? then they have permission to move it to that venue.

I got a truck load of lemons this month.

Started of with getting a phonecall from my sister that my mom was heading to the ER with hartproblems. Gave us all quiet a scare but although she isn't up and ready to run a marathon, or just go to work,she's doing more or less OK. Only had to stay in the hospital over the weekend for observation and is already nagging again ;) >sad smile<. And I seem partially responsible for it due to the etra stress my workproblems are giving her :(

I almost died the other day, or, in the very least, got seriously injured. That might account something for my pissy mood and the feeling that I am just moments away from yet another calamity.

The documentary blogged below, "Orchids: My Intersex Adventure" is not available for streaming outside of Australia, as many have found out. The US cable channel Showtime will be showing it September 17th and 30th, according to their site:

And go to the filmmaker's website for full information about the movie and a trailer that does play outside of Down Under:
