Ever since I played the first home version of the game on the PlayStation I wanted to, somehow, write the script of a book based on Namco’s Ridge Racer. In my version the racing team had a blind driver who uses sound and vibrations within the car to successfully drive it. The car is also equipped with mag-lev wheels which allows the wheels to disconnect from the car for extremely tight turns.

It took a few years until I saw the opening for the PSP version of the game and thought, I have found my character model for both the team car and driver.

I just finished reading "Homesick" by Trismegistus Shandy. I'm surprised at the few reads this story attracted. While it's a bit different from other stories here, it's a well written tale in a "Twilight Zone" kind of way. I almost expected Rod Serling type epilogue.

All three parts are posted, so if you like to wait for stories to be complete, this one is. If you haven't read it, I'd highly recommend it.

It's also on Amazon. EVERY PENNY the book earns goes directly to the site to help offset bills.

Everyone...please patronize ALL the authors here who have books out? You'll be helping the site AND the authors, some of whom also donate all the money from their book sales to the site.

Many, many thanks to Erin and the Editors who helped my new book get published. From Transformers (Sort Of) which is now titled Suited For Adventure. This is Book one. Book Two is in the process of finding a good "Break Point" and be ready for publishing so I can begin work on Book 3!!!

I just posted a new Christmas story on my website!

Please, follow this link to read: https://danielawolfe.com/story/santa-babe/

Santa is no longer the merrymaker we all remember. After his wife has left him, Santa turns to alcohol to fill the void in his heart. It's Samson the elf's job to keep him from doing anything that would get him into trouble, but when the old man accidentally consumes a mysterious potion, Samson finds his job has gotten a whole lot more difficult.

I Dream of Jonni -4- Make Me Shiver is up a day early for Patrons.

Jonnie finds out some of what it means to be a genie.

Well, it's been a mild-ish day hereabouts, I had a short walk earlier around the nearest town to me (I live 10km from Sheffield Centre but less than 2 from Dronfield and 9 from Chesterfield even if my address is Sheffield!)

Then I set to at the KB and after a full ten hours, i've completed the final part of 1902 Sunbeam Safety! I'm pretty happy with it, it would have been so easy to have spun it out but that was never my intention with this. I'll get it edited and so on and you should be able to read it over the holiday.

Long ago when I wrote and published some stories on this site it was less active. You were doing pretty good with 100 Kudos and 150 was an amazing story. Times have changed. Now it is much more common to see a story with over 200 Kudos.

Today I visited the My Stories page and saw one of my stories had reached 200 Kudos. I was shocked, but happy about the development.

I am looking for someone to protect a servant (Protagonist) of the Queen while she performs secret work in the Palace. This young woman answers only to Her Majesty. These soldiers must be absolutely reliable. Would that be a British Royal Marine, not a spook?

Would someone be able to give this tale a read for the correctness of British speech, customs, and Royal protocols? At this time I do not think this story will be overly large. Perhaps twenty thousand words? It may be seen as a bit of a parody on the state of the world, and not a criticism of the Royals.

Unedited Preview of next chapter of Love Less -6- Without a Prayer a day early for Patrons.

Become a Patron!

I was going to again read "Deception of Choice" (I think that is the title), written by Itinerant but the story is not listed in that Author's works. (I think Itinerant wrote it). I've looked elsewhere on the Internet and not found it. This story is very important to me because reading it, and "Bike" during the really hard years helped me to not allow things to end badly.

If I've gotten the facts muddled up, can someone help me please?

Much Peace

The Dragonsword trilogy by Gael Baudino consists of Dragonsword, Duel of Dragons, and Dragon Death. I first looked into it because I’d heard of its having strong TG elements, and though the covers were unpromising, looking like fairly generic high fantasy, I was pleasantly surprised to find it much better and more original than I expected.

Well I have to tender my apologies, no posting today.

TransScripts Transgender Fiction

How can you help us to help you?

As we approach the end of the year the question of TransScripts keeps nagging at me. When I get an idea in my head I normally push it on people until it’s a success but, for whatever the reason, time has not been on my side with this particular project. To put things right I am here and now (I know it isn’t January first but I never follow the masses) make a resolution that 2019 will be the year of TransScripts Transgender Fiction.

Well the 3rd draft of 11th Sun is being a cocksucker and I'm in the need of a little love. TG Techie is resuming, so everyone can tell me what they thing of something. I would put all the finished drafts of 11th Sun up, but then no one would buy the book. Which would be sad.

I'm not in a great place and I need a push to keep going.

The story is hard to find because while I know it is in a medevil\fantasy setting, and may be incomplete

MC is like in most stories the butt of many jokes by peers

there is a 'searching' that takes place at a festival of some kind

The local cause of trouble is a boy who while high-born, isn't as highup the chain as he believes and his father had become tired with bailing him out and is taken as a sqire to a knight.

The chosen have to travel, and MC discovers they have magic and a warrior?

OK. I have spread myself WAY too thin. :-(

....did not expect to be 'ditched' by the muse.

Summer of Love ...while SO not forgotten.... is being pushed aside while I struggle to advance "Secondhand Life" and "Roomies".

My imagination reels with all three tales, but 2HL & Roomies have ....connectable dots... while SOL has been pushed aside.

Ironic... since SOL is the most fleshed out narrative in my mind.... which, ...maybe, is why I think it's the best able to wait....

I just wanted to let everyone know that I've just posted a new short story, Legends. If you've already read it since I posted it, I have just revised it (fixed the typos, hopefully all of them, and added some extra bits to the story). I want to add that the story is a mix of mystery, a puzzle of the past, and a hodgepodge mixture of science fiction, magic, mythology, gods and the continuation of a long-standing vendetta. Creating the main character's voice and how he tells his story was hard and--in the end--very satisfying.

I'm hoping for some completed book recommendations. I've read and enjoyed Daring Diane, Maddy Bell and Karin Bishop.

I don't like forced sissification or humiliation. I'd also prefer longer stories.
I've found a few authors on the site that I enjoy but usually the story is still ongoing...

Any recs are welcome. If there are already posts that ask similar questions, please link them in.

Some of you might know that Crazypagangurl (aka Tiffany) had been working with me on a pathfinder story. I intend that when it's finished, the story will be dedicated to her.

I hope that's okay ...

Found wolfjess7, Her electronics decide to do an illegal and savage strike just before Thanksgiving.
She'll be back as soon as they agree to come back to work.

So I was looking through my stories, and realized that the first chapter of "Mercy" now has 301 kudos.
