Does anyone have past experience or know of the best ways on approaching ballet school to join in ballet lessons without offending the the other students who being real girls have much more derserving of there place. Maybe i could work at the school after lessons and clean all of the teachers and students ballet shoes to show how much i appriciate there time in teaching me to become a sissy balerina.

Any help i would be most thankful for.

So, that IRC session I mentioned, for the Q&A? I'd like to schedule it for sometime tomorrow (July 11) evening :)

The IRC I've been frequenting apparently has a separate room for author chats, anyway, so that'll be good

irc.tgsa.net port 6667
and it's apparently the one that you get to through Storysite
Um... time and room is the only things not set -- and the room may be

Suggestions?

A little story description from pages:
ShÅ«ichi Nitori is a 5th grade student who likes to bake and has always been something of a feminine boy. When he transfers to a new school, ShÅ«ichi is mistaken for his 6th grade sister on his first day. Then he ends up sitting next to Yoshino Takatsuki, a tall, boyish girl who everyone calls “Takatsuki-kun.” They both have secrets they can’t let anyone know…

It is very nice story and I think you should try it.
Enjoy

Non-TG stuff!

Hello I was chatting tonight and a interesting idea come up. We have a wonderful group of talented authors here at BC and that got me to wondering what if any Non-TG materials they might have written. For that matter is there a convenient place where we can find these hidden treasures? I know some have their own homepages but what for those like me who are technically inept? Anyone?

Well maybe not a good idea, but just maybe...

One of the joys of writing Blue Moon is finding uses for elements I introduced earlier just for color or bits of business. Do people writing novels do this, too, or is the tuxedo cat stealing cream in chapter four never to be seen again?

What if you needed a sudden noise in the middle of the night in chapter thirteen? Wouldn't it make sense for Mr. Underfoot to turn out to be the same cat? And then, near the climax when the villain needs to send a message, poor little kitty gets a curtain call?

Grisly example but does this happen in novel-writing?

The BC server went down for about 90 minutes due to excess heat in the server farm. At the time, I had taken my mom down to a fastfood place so she could cool off. :) So that's why it took so long to fix cause I did not report it by phone until I got back.

It's okay now, I hope.

I've got a ton of stuff to do but I took the Fourth off to laze around at friends', eat, cook and talk. I came home last night and slept 10-1/2 hours, very unusual for me. Now I feel like crud, aches and pains all over, stuffed up sinuses and a sore throat. I'm going to take it easy today, do very little and hope I feel better tomorrow.

Hugs to all and especially those of you waiting for me to do something in particular,

I have been living full time as a woman for about three years. I am heading for Thailand to finish by the end of the month.

To be truthful, since my Orchiectomy and beginning Hormones, I don't have a sexual attraction. When I return, I shall be fully female, but there is no physiological reason for my desires to change.

I have not recently sought male companionship, but I do have several female friends.

Hi Everyone! I was scanning though my favorite web sites this morning and ran across a movie trailer for "Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium" I was a little turned off by the title and idea that it was just another Holiday movie. However once I watched it I got SRU flashbacks not that anyone was transformed but just by the sets and madcap staff. Maybe the Wizard has a younger brother? here is a link to the trailer in case anyone is interested.

Rick Reilly is by far my favorite columnist. His “Life of Reilly” appears on the last page of Sports Illustrated. For years I’ve read Sports Illustrated from back to front. Many times his column is all that I read, but I try never to miss it.

This week’s column is a shocker. He wrote about a friend of his, a past co-worker on the Los Angeles Times, Mike Penner, who is now Christine Daniels, who still is a sports writer for that paper.

He talks of how good-looking she has become because she now is smiling a great deal. He speaks in positive terms throughout the article.

The only thing I excelled at turned out to be thinking. I was able to read before I was two and could do college level trigonometry problems by the time I was seven. I was so far ahead of other kids my age that my parents got permission to home school me. I completed all of the requirements for graduation from High School by the time I was eight and got my first college degree; a Bachelors in Electrical Engineering, when I was ten. I was twelve years old when I started helping dad test and debug software for the company he owned.

I'm not a fan of forced fem stories. If it's not voluntary, making someone do something that will put them in danger -- either at the time or later on -- is wrong and would be construed as child abuse in most of the cases in which they do this. I guess I see them as way too formulaic. There's also the fact that I was severely abused as a child... from about age 6 months to around age 15 when I finally stood up and stopped taking it

I was wondering what other authors use to help themselves write their longer stories. Do they write notes on paper? Do they keep notes in a file? Do they use any software? If so, what programs do they use?

I keep notes at the bottom of the file in an outline format by chapter. Since the notes are at the bottom, I'm always reminded of the next scene I want to write. After I write the scene, I delete the notes relating to that scene. Then I have notes for the next scene to take their place.

Serials vs. Novels

So, a recent topic got me thinking in a new direction now. What's the difference between a serial and a novel published a few chapters at a time? Is there a difference of story structure? Does a serial need to be episodic?

The ever faithful Dictionary.com defines a serial likes this:


anything published, broadcast, etc., in short installments at regular intervals, as a novel appearing in successive issues of a magazine.

I was constantly beating the odds of bad things happening, in my first 20 years. So much so, that I had the reputation of being the clumsiest person in town. When I was in high school, there was a contest in the town newspaper that described some of my injuries and the circumstances that led to them. The first 50 correct responders to the newspaper office would receive a coupon good for a free sandwich from a local fast food place. All 50 coupons were claimed before an hour had passed from the time the papers hit the shelves/streets

Just banned a Sweden-based search engine from the site for too many redundant page loads. Over a three day period this dumbass robot ate up almost 1/18th of all the processor time spent building pages. Google's search engine did the same job over the same period for about 4% as much time (nearly twice as much time as that spent by an actual live visitor who checks frequently and reads a lot but still, not bad).

Tonight after reading the rather awesome Sk8r Grrls story I was reading through some of my own fiction, and came across a passage in 'The Beauty Soap' (I'd link but my own site is being redeveloped and I can't find it here :S) which wonders if the shop has started using subliminals. This story came of that. It probably isn't that great as i knocked it out in two hours or so, and proofed it myself. Any errors are therefor my own. Without further ado...

No wonder it was so crowded

I just had to share this. I went by our local Home Depot this evening. On the way out I saw their sign advertising their upcoming 4th of July sale. It said:

This message is in order for me to say goodbye.

As some of you know, I been battling stage IV cancer for over 5 years. Last year I came close to dying, but due to other complications caused by my cancer, not the cancer itself. The five year survival rate for my cancer is less than 10% but somehow I've made it to almost 6 years. I may get to six(September) but not much further.

I've often wondered why people put trademark, registered trademark, and copyright indicators after the names of certain products or organizations. I can understand why it's important to show respect for someone's trademark or copyright, but is it mandatory to put such indicators in the middle of a piece of fiction?

Playmate

by shalimar

I took a break from my household chores on that early May afternoon and watched Miriam, my five-year-old and her friend, Sarah, learn a clapping song from two of the older girls in the neighborhood. The older girls are very patient with my baby and her friend as they learn the actions, rhythm and words of the song, “Playmate.”

As I watched them it brought back memories of my own childhood, sitting and watching the girls in the neighborhood do that and other clapping songs. One time there were only three girls, so they asked me to join them.

Not so much a question for me as an answer for anyone asking the question themselves. I've had a few e-mails asking where the next part is and thought some explanation was in order.

John in Wauwatosa has alluded to what's happening, but my family has had a series of painful events this year.

A nephew passing away at 25, another with advanced cancer who's not even 45, and another family member with a (so far) not life threatening pulmonary embolism.

It's been a bit tough to get any writing done.
