Google Docs

There's your online resource for transporting documents back and forth to school.  It's also PERFECT if you don't have Microsoft Word at your house.  Some of you know how messed up the format can be when you try to print here at school.  Google Docs will also solve that problem...

Evenings at Port au Ciel

Well, I'd begun having these dreams, not frequently, but twice, wherein I'd fallen in love with a woman without arms. Guro-sites cater to my thing for amputees so I'd uploaded this on a anonymous Guro-site in hopes that it would get some sort of following, however, because everyone was much more interested in whether or not there was any sex in it or not, I kind of lost steam and just bailed out on it.

Finished C-section Story - Finally!

Here's draft one of the story I read aloud to you guys WAY back in October. I'll take any feeback you've got. My skin is pretty thick.

I don't need editing or even revision help really (I'm pretty good with sentence structure and grammar and what not), but if you see any glaring conceptual errors, continuity problems, or plot holes, let me know and I can readjust stuff.

Thanks, Zack. I had to research a bit and figure out first what a typical handgun was and then find pictures of it. I didn't even know what to google. I'll go back and look at that bit with the gun. That was one of the last parts I wrote because ...

The Glock-description is perfect, My dad always drops bits like that. However, in response to the asking of where her father keeps his gun, isn't that sort of a younger-aged kind of deal? They seem fairly "adult". Good job building the suspense w...
