My novella is out there and someone found it and loved it. Check it out here. Yes it's barely making a blip on the radar but it is a novella. I'm just happy that someone found it that fast and asked for a sequel. OMG everyone wants a sequel of this time. I'm going to have to deliver ( Read more... )

That's awesome about your novella! And I;m glad the rest of the day was just as awesome! :D

*sighs & shakes my head at JK Rowling* While you can't control what people think, she should really keep such UGLY thoughts to herself. She's supposed to be a role model for young people, plus she's got tons pf young fans who look up to her, some of whom may be trans & that's a really bad thing to do, especially if she's supposed to be teaching tolerance by making one of her beloved characters gay. Definitely heartbreaking to her trans fans.

Thanks it was very nice.

I know, she went from pretending she didn't know her retweets were anti trans, to saying ten years from now we'll have a bunch of trans people regretting their choices to making them the villains of her books. Guess I can easily be done with her

You're welcoem! :D

Yeah, really. She has no idea. My sister had to go to therapy & the therapist had to sign off that she was ready to become a girl, before she could have surgery, so unless someone winds up with a bad therapist, I would think that the chances of someone regretting things is really small. Yes, it probably does happen, but not in the numbers it seems she's thinking of. Making them villains in a book is just plain wrong! They have it hard enough, without that lil nugget to deal with. *sarcasm* Is she planning on making her next villain a gay man who's also a pedophile? *sarcasm* Seriously, it's nice to know she's a bigot, so I won't be supporting her work or adding to her millions, by watching any movies made from said work or buying her books. It's like she's got sooo much money & fans that she doesn't care about being bigoted or alienating any fans who find her bigotry offensive. So yeah, I'm done with her too.

No argument. Yes there have been people who have regretted the change but chances are they had underlying mental health issues too. Trans people literally have different brain structures matching the gender they identify as (or at least many do).

Yep it's sad when bigots out themselves on one hand and on the other we know to stop support them.

She's aruging that her villain is a cis man who is dressing as a woman (but that's how she sees transgendered people...)

Congratulations on the story release, and immediate five-star review! Cassadaga deserves some love (how cool is it your reader fact-checked the locales?) Now you definitely have to do sequels.

thanks so much. That was nice. Cassadaga certainly does.

It's now been balanced by a few 1 stars by people who didn't know it was a romance...somehow. Ironically if I had left it shorter with less dates (as per the publisher who asked for more) they might have been happier.

I think the sequel will be in Point Pleasant WV
