I just thought I would mention this as it has been a great help to me. The Natural Reader program is a free download easily found on the net. Since I write and well enjoy it, I also strive to make my story's an easy read. Sometimes saying what you mean and meaning what you say can get lost in the writing. There is nothing like having someone read back to you what you have written, if just to see what it sounds like. The Natural Reader is not a great quality program but, it has the advantage of reading exactly what you wrote, as opposed to what you thought you wrote...lol.

Now that the story is posted, I left the ending open so it might be continued. If any of the author's here at the BC would like to pick it up and continue I would gladly give them my permission to do so.

I started this story back in early 1991. I knew the family well since they were my neighbors. Ronnie was really the driving force for the protest and it continued till the day he graduated. He followed his sisters footsteps and went to law school as well. Having to deal with a great many of the social issues that the TG and TS community deal with every day, they both became great advocates,with first hand experience. The true story didn't end well for Ronnie, but I didn't know that till his elderly mom told me. That was shortly after they buried her husband.

For those of you who like them I am hoping to post the second part of my serial today. Thanks to one and all for the comments and kudos. part 1.1 may seem more like an added chapter, and will fill some plot holes from the first part. If I have stepped on someones elses story or plot line, I do apologize. I don't get to read a lot of the story's here as time is limited for me on the net... Best wishes to all.

well after the complete and total loss AKA crash of my last computer... Hopefully I am back and can submit some story's again. My best wishes to all who might have been waiting for my next post. And a word of friendly advice...backups, backups, backups. Master copies of your work are far more valuable than you might think. Your time alone is worth something and you could loose it all in crash... Ask me I know....lol hope you all enjoy the next post...

First let me apologize the Staff and Editors. I tried to post two chapters of a story I wrote some time. I have no clue about how HTML works. I tried several times before I got it to look right and hit the submit content button......but oops I didn't clear out the others that didn't look good before I did. So you may have got the first chapter of the same story several times. I have read through a lot of the FAQ but I use Word Perfect so it's bit different from MS word.

Still I am open to any all help as I have more than a few story's I would like to post. Thanks to all. Joe
