I have started at least listening to twitter Following a couple of comic authors I like and the second life grid status notifications. Well I just added a gadget to my sidebar that makes it easier for me to post what I'm doing. If there's interest in following me. My twitter feed is http://www.twitter.com/stonegrift/

If anyone signs up I may actually start posting what I'm doing.


Sometimes writing with geeks is like eating Jello with a chainsaw. Interesting but painful.

Brandy, last night several of the people on the Whateley circuit got e-mails allegedly from you, saying that you were in London and needed funds to get home.

First, while I have nothing but respect for you, we're not really on that close of terms, that I'd expect you to feel comfortable asking for money.

Second, the wording of the e-mail suggests that the sender would have alerted me as to going abroad. There's no reason for you do to so.

Third, several others have gotten exactly the same e-mail.

It doesn't take Sherlock Holmes to deduce that some idjit hacker has hijacked your database, and is trolling for whatever loose change falls his way.

I hope that this finds you in time, before any of your personal friends waste money sending it to 'You'.

Bek

So. I realize I been going on and on and on about how I was almost done with Eldritch, and was gonna release it soon, then I got caught in a continuity screwup and had to revamp the project.

Well it may not be Eldritch, but it IS whateley and it IS the Outcasts, so here soon I will be giving you the following stories of Whateley Mayhem

I'm a Freak, Sue Me.

Child of Confusion.

Another day as an Outcast.

Hope you enjoy when they hit the sites.

1960's Japanese Animation. A step up from 'Astro Boy', so if you're into AB you might like it. Starts off okay, but gets silly at a very fast rate of speed. The fights are waged in stop motion (still shots of individual blows, instead of full animation). Just remember, that this is the stuff that the Japanese were putting out before 'Akira'

Whateley Universe Temporarily Closed to New Submissions


Hi everyone and before there is a big yell, or whatever, as the title shows, this is temporary measure only. I've received a flood of submissions since the New Year and to be honest, we, the autors need a bit of time to assimilate all the new stuff and characters we've been given. Bear with us (and me) here since this will aid in maintaining continuity in the universe, get the new people settled in and comfortable with the way we work, and get all of us grounded on the newer developments (and expansions) on the existing universe. Also, this will help us maintain the quality of the stories we throw at all of you with such stunning regularity.

To those of you who have sent in submissions and as of yet not heard back, be patient with me please, I'm working through them and will get responses to all of you. The the ones who are currently working on corrections, rewrites, or whatever in response to our requests, keep doing those, your submissions have already been received and duly noted.

Also, those who have new characters/stories ready, do use the Fan Fic area to post them. That way we'll still see them, I promise you, and discuss them between us. Plus doing things that way, you get the story posted, the comments from doing that, and the notice that your story deserves.

In closing here, I want to thank each and everyone of you who have submitted stories, commented, or otherwise made Whateley into the success it appears to be here. I will be posting a notice of when we are accepting new submissions, and it shouldn't be that long, really. Just need a bit of breathing space here is all.

Thank you all, once again.

The Olympians are always harping on the special nature of hermaphrodites

Ayla has been selected as Circe's new apprentice.

We've got this dark man thing going on.

Chou is considered a special potential due to her TG nature.

Numerous TGs have arisen.

If TGs really are special in potential....

Has anyone in the Whateleyverse ever gone to another world where history went differntly, say one where Russia rules the world?

And how well does alternate history as a book genre. I can see H1 using book like that as propaganda.

Question
What would this ability be classified as?

Mental Shapeshifter
They change their personality, way of thinking, and personal perspective while retaining all previous and present memories.

Examples
Default mind: ?
Android Mindset: Emotionless, actions taken based upon short term, long-term profit/loss predictions. (Includes their assessment of how commonly used Mindsets will react to their and each others actions.)
Joyous Rage Mindset: Hmmm... Omnicidal Maniac. Very, very happy one. Actions taken based on the desire to terrify and destroy based upon the list of targets and preferred targets in memory/threat level/accessibility.
Etc.:

Part of it seems like the PSYchic ability to rewrite another persons mind but used on yourself, however the original concept had them creating these Mindsets like you might create a mask, and that sounds like an ESPer ability.

More on the subject.
Extra
Maybe this should be in character crea... Wasn't there a character creation Sub-Forum? Well maybe this should be there, but despite the temptation of doing the combat finals this character eventually gained I'm unlikely to actually use them.


Coercive Telepathy


Since this concept gelled after reading Author "Kristen Darken's" "Fling" stories, I was wondering if anyone knew how their mental shapeshifting worked.

There are two conflicting times for Fae and Stalwarts first date, just wondering witch one was true?

The first possible date is early October: Fae mentioned her date in Reflections in an Evil Eye (early October) and again from Ayla's point of view in Alya and the Tests #3. The Devil's Dance supports this since Fey and Stalwart are seen dancing together.

The second time is in late November: in The Play's the Thing where Wallflower and Hank convince Fey to go on a double date with them.
