Pressing The Wrong Buttons

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

As I sit here, trying to confound and astound my readers with further adventures, I wonder if I am always on the right track.

By this, I am constantly trying to balance what I like to write with what my readers like to read. I hate being stuck in a pigeon hole, so I tend to write on different subjects, time spans, ages etc. I would hate to think that people see my name and think, ‘Oh here is a typical Sue Brown story.’

All You Need (Is One Good Friend)

"All you need is love", I've heard. Not quite, at least for me. I learned tonight the value of having one true friend: just one, who's there to remind you you're not alone, and to anchor you in reality.

I might be in love

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

Well, The above is a statement I never thought I would say again. I met somebody on a chat room, and she helped me get through the worst of my flashbacks. She knows my gender status, and it doesnt faze her a bit. She is also constantly complimenting me, calling me beautiful, and making me feel special and wanted in a way I have never felt before. I am being careful, trying to take my time and get to know her better, but also trying to enjoy the moment at the same time. We will have to see how it goes.

Ego Booster

Author: 

There are days, weeks even years where self doubts affect us all.

I've been feeling particularly below par in the 'passing' area.

Today ended that feeling for me. I was pulling out of my driveway when this guy walked in front of my car. He was young and attractive and definately my type.

He takes off his sunglasses and looks into my drivers side window (which was down) and asks... "Wendy? Is that you?"

Well I don't know who Wendy is, but I'm glad he even got the gender correct!

British Military Experience

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

Are there any contributors here who have British Military experience? I was in the US ARMY in the 60's, so I know about general military stuff in America. I get the impression that , at least for a Leftenant the atmosphere in the British Army is considerably more professional and far less militaristic than the US Army. It is also my impression that if a soldier gets fed up, they can simply resign and go home.

I also do not know about a Leftenant taking a post on a Heavy Machine Gun for a short while because one of his men had another short task.

New Grover Story!

Hey Everyone I have a new story up at StarDust. Career Day: The Wheels On The Bus Go Round And Round. It's a lot different from Once A Hero. It's about time travel, Alien machines, racists, and the joys of getting your hair done. Story length is around 46 thousand words, and will be posted in more or less three even parts. If I get part 2 that I'm currently working finished, I'll simply add it onto the end doubling the length.

On reaching a thousand.

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

It came and went, no big deal - like most birthdays after thirty. I've spent somewhere between one and two thousand hours writing it, over a period of about two years and ten months. Now I have to decide what I want to do with it.

There are loads of loose ends to tie up, which is just like a real person who dies, or like we all have everyday, so there are always plenty of plot lines to follow or I could end it where it is - if the latter, as it's written in the first person, there would be no more, the narrator is no more. I know I tried that before and popular demand resurrected her.

This one's written in Javascript (so those with NoScript installed may already have spotted something's up!) and is a playable version of the game - apparently all the way up to level 255...

Transgeder Treatment Protocols

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

I find myself feeling rather fearful and nervous about meeting I am attending at 12:00 today.

The purpose of it is to comment on Treatment Protocols for the GBLT set at OHSU, here in Portland. I don't find myself feeling very charitable toward them as I think they are a pretentious, self important bunch. They seem to filter everything one of us says with filters that put some sort of bizarre Freudian spin on it.

They seemed to feel rather insulted when I walked away from them and went on to actually have a real life, and without their mind numbing drugs.

Does anyone have any advice on how to make a story that comes off as complete? It seems like a lot of the stories I write that feel complete to me seem to feel incomplete to other people.

200th Anniversary

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

On the 21st of May 1810 Charles-Genevieve Louis-Auguste-Andre-Timothee Deon de Beaumont died in London at the age of eighty-three.
Much has been written about the Chevalier d’Eon since that day. For anyone still unaware of this famous historical figure, please read the links below for a précis of an unusual life which also included diplomat, spy, Advocate, Captain of Dragoons, fencing master etc. Plus, we should remember that at one time, many of us would have been called an Eonist.

It is easy for us to read about such a figure without thinking about the person behind the story.
