Off line for a cool down

Submitted by on

I took the site down today for a cool down. Things had suddenly gone from a few posts trading mostly civil comments to five or more hot flames in half an hour then five in five minutes. I had to leave for a bit and didn't feel it would be wise to leave the site open to comments that might stay up for hours and inflame more passions, so I shut things down. I'm back, but later tonight I'll be going to sleep and tomorrow I will be occupied with taking my mother to see the cancer doctor. Let's all try to be nice to one another.

Hugs,
Erin

Problems with WYSIWYG editor

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

There seem to be some problems with the WYSIWYG editor. I've installed a new version that seems to work correctly in Firefox but has problems in Safari, and some versions of IE. Haven't tested Opera, Camino, ICab or Mozilla. If you need WYSIWYG capabilities, I guess you're safe if you use Firefox or IE7 until they get the kinks out. Sorry.

Which story shall I work on first?

I have managed to paint myself into a virtual corner, and I am unsure how to proceed. In addition to my novel for publication, I have a slew of stories currently in production for BigCloset. If I'm going to get anything posted, I need to focus on one of them at a time. The question I want to throw out there is for the folks who read my stuff -- what do you want to see first?

Here's what's I'm currently working on (not including my Stardust story contest entry):

I Went Out Last Night

This is a true story. Names and place descriptions have been changed to protect the parties involved (especially me!) If you somehow manage to recognize anyone, please keep this story to yourself. I'd like to be welcome back at the places I went. I'd like to especially thank "Jerry" and "Caryn", two delightful people who could almost singlehandedly make you believe in the goodness of humanity.

I went out last night. This was unusual for two reasons. One, my wife didn't want to go with me. We almost always either go out together or stay in together. The other, I've really, really wanted to go out "dressed," as the kids say, and I finally did, after months of self-torment and tribulations. I went out, by myself, wearing high-heeled ultra-suede fabric boots from Payless, a pair of women's Faded Glory jeans, a black camisole top with built-in hidden bra, a purple cardigan sweater and full makeup.
