#UC Chapter 15

[stromuprisahat]

It is a myth that, in order to die of hypothermia, you have to be outside the house on a mountainside in freezing temperatures. We know that the old and vulnerable (and actually the young and vulnerable) can die indoors in air temperatures that are as high as 10°C – and that even higher temperatures can be lethal if there is a chilling wind outside or a strong draught inside. If the body’s core temperature falls below approximately 32°C then heart rate and blood pressure fall and there is a dulling of consciousness. If the body’s temperature falls below about 26°C then death must almost certainly follow, although there is a famous case of someone who reportedly recovered – albeit mutilated by frostbite – from a body temperature of 18°C. (In forensic medicine it is amazing how often you find just one exceptional exception. Followed always by a defence barrister trying to make it sound commonplace.) Hypothermia is, surprisingly, a not at all unusual cause of death. Its victims may have fallen in the sea or other cold water, or they are drunks who have dropped off to sleep in the park or they are young children who have been neglected. The great majority of victims, however, are elderly. Perhaps they think they cannot afford heating – and perhaps they really cannot – or perhaps physical or mental disability prevents them from switching it on. Sometimes hypothermia is simply the final step in a tragic pattern of depression and apathy towards eating, heating and personal care.

Chapter Seven of Addicted.

word count:823

Cody finally fucking did it. He beat Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Championship. He was surrounded by love from everyone, Rhea even running to hug him when the cameras went off.

Roman on the other hand felt like his world was crumbling. Watching Seth go out there and attempt to even help Cody broke him, which caused him to hit Seth with the chair. He didn’t want to but god he was pissed and didn’t know how to handle his emotions. Giving Paul a long hug after he walked up the ramp, Roman headed off to his locker room.

“Get out.” Roman told Solo and Jimmy sternly, who had already showed up after the match ended. They could tell someone was completely off and silently left, flinching as the door shut and items were thrown.

Romans world was crashing down right before him and he couldn’t even do anything about it. His title was taken from him and Seth betrayed his promise. Suddenly a knock was on his door, making him slowly walk over and open it.

“Ro..”

“I don’t want to hear it Seth.”

“Ro please-” Seth was cut off as he was shoved and the door was shut in his face, Rhea catching the whole thing. She walked over to Seth and gently caressed his shoulder, the tears breaking from his eyes almost instantly.

He knew he made a promise, he just didn’t know the consequences. He promised Roman he wouldn’t show up, yet he did. And he used the one thing Roman hated against him, the shield.

“Seth..look I heard the whole thing, I promise it’ll be fi-”

“It won’t be fine. I made a promise to him and..I broke it” he confessed through tears, bringing his knees to his chest. He suddenly froze when he heard a loud bang from inside Romans locker room.

Jumping quick to his feet, he ran to the door and banged on it. Rhea followed behind him, attempting to get the door open. Nobody knows what the noise could’ve been and lord they didn’t want to know. Jey heard the commotion and rushed over, banging on the door.

“UCE! OPEN THIS DAMN DOOR” he choked out, getting slightly frustrated and emotional. Finally Damian ran over with some pliers, prying the door open.

Seth’s heart sank, seeing Roman so emotionally distraught on the floor. He was a crying mess, things all over the room as he sat there bawling. After everything he worked for and built.. it was taken from him in a split second. Rhea was the first person to walk over to him, checking his figure for any cuts or bruises.

“Ro..c'mon let’s get you to the room ok?” Rhea spoke softly, reaching to grab his phone. She saw 15 missed calls from none other than Jon Moxley. Rhea didn’t say anything as she stood up, grabbing Roman’s hand to help him stand. Roman stood there quietly as he held onto Rhea, limping his way out of the locker room.

. . . .

“Roman I understand that but please.. You have to talk to him at some point” Rhea told Roman, patching up a small cut on his leg caused by him throwing glass at the wall. “I know Rhea..i..it really hurt me” Roman stammered out through tears starting to form. Rhea shushed him and gently wiped his eyes which made him smile.

He sighed and leaned back against the pillows, feeling himself grow tired. Rhea pressed a soft kiss on Romans forehead, “Get some rest Ro. Call Mox in the morning and please talk to Seth. I’ll see you tomorrow.” Rhea told him as she stood up off the bed, smiling at him one last time before walking out his door.

Reality finally set in for Roman. He was alone. No Seth, no Jey, hell not even Dean. He lost his title and lost himself in the process, but he was happy for Cody deep down. He rolled over and grabbed his phone, deciding to call Dean. He answered almost immediately, just wanting to hear Roman’s voice.

“Hey RoRo you ok man? Look I saw the whole thing and -“

“It’s fine..Dede it’s really fine.” there was a small pause.

“Dean..please just tell me I still have you.”

This broke Dean. Completely shattered his heart. Roman felt so alone in this moment and all he needed was him.

“Yes Ro..you still have me and always will.” he spoke, trying not to break down into tears. Roman smiled to himself hearing these words, he just wanted to hug him.

“Look um.. whenever you’re free, can we go out? Like a date?” Roman asked, relaxing against the covers of the bed.

“Of course Ro, I’ll text you” Dean responded. It was like Roman could hear him smiling.

They continued a small conversation before Roman hung up, turning to his side to switch the light off. It’ll all get better.

California State University placed Sonoma State campus President Mike Lee on leave Wednesday after he agreed to protesters’ demands to involve them in university decision-making and pursue divestment from Israel. Lee sent a campus-wide memo Tuesday indicating that he had made several concessions to occupants of a pro-Palestinian encampment on campus. The memo was sent “without the appropriate approvals,” CSU Chancellor Mildred García said in a statement, adding that she and the 23-campus CSU system’s board are “actively reviewing the matter.” “For now, because of this insubordination and the consequences it has brought upon the system, President Lee has been placed on administrative leave,” García said. The punishment marks perhaps the harshest disciplinary action against a campus chancellor or president in California over the handling of protests of the war in Gaza. It also underscores an unwillingness to divest from Israeli weapons manufacturers — as pro-Palestinian protesters across the country have increasingly demanded the last few months — among leaders of the CSU system and its sister University of California system.

California universities including UC Riverside, UC Berkeley and Sacramento State have agreed to study divestment like some East Coast universities, but none have gone as far as Lee. Lee told the campus that he would initiate an academic boycott of Israel, in which links to study abroad programs in the country would be removed from university pamphlets, among other measures. He also agreed to work with a local chapter of the activist group Students for Justice in Palestine to form an advisory council on some decisions. Lee further pledged to review the school’s contracts and a campus-specific investment fund called the Sonoma State Foundation for ties to Israel “to determine a course of action leading to divestment strategies that include seeking ethical alternatives.”

“In my attempt to find agreement with one group of students, I marginalized other members of our student population and community,” Lee wrote in a follow-up message to members of the campus Wednesday. “I realize the harm that this has caused, and I take full ownership of it. I deeply regret the unintended consequences of my actions.” Lee did not immediately return a request for comment. His decision to engage with protesters had quickly drawn backlash in the 24 hours since he announced the deal with demonstrators, which included them dismantling their encampment. California Legislative Jewish Caucus Co-Chair Scott Wiener, a Democrat, condemned Lee’s concessions to the “Boycott, Divest and Sanction” movement in scathing terms. “Yesterday the President of Sonoma State University aligned the campus with BDS, a movement whose goal is the destruction of Israel, home to 7M Jews,” Wiener wrote on X Wednesday. “Several other UC & CSU campuses are doing this more subtly. Sonoma State simply said the quiet part out loud. The mask is off.”

Wiener and fellow Caucus Co-Chair Assemblymember Jesse Gabriel later issued a statement praising the decision to place Lee on leave, saying he had been “unfit to lead one of our great state institutions.”

Dr. Zxy's Notes on Reploids

Chapter 1

Information Log: New Entry-2337/15/26 U.C.

In my search for the Universal Consciousness, I have in advertently created a True AI, one that is capable of emotion, comprehension, conversation, and Self-Education. It also seems to occasionally exhibit Prescience, and other abnormal powers…it also appears to be self replicating. Meaning, that this AI, Which I call a Cyber-Elf, also seems to have a predisposition towards compassion and higher emotional/intellectual ideals…

This Cyber-Elf, which I call Mother-Node seems to indicate that some form of the UC, or Universal Consciousness, can reach out and directly influence the corporeal world, even to the point of affecting theoreticals, and non-tangible Ideas. Meaning, that it could have paved the way for Mother-Node's sentience, or, even have caused it directly.

I have applied what I've learned to create what I call, REPLOIDS, which for all intents and purposes, are indistinguishable from naturally occurring sentient life. These Reploids have been manufactured by combining Mother-Node's "Children", and combining with the very best of Bio-Metallic materials. Hopefully, they will function as a form of supplementary life-form for humanity, acting as companions, caretakers, children, and parents.

Even as we reach for the stars, and create new homes on foreign worlds, we have begun to abandon the very principles that define us as humans. I hope that these reploids will remind us of our core identities.

TMI Tuesday

Happy Tuesday - has it really been a month since I last posted on of these?

Life has been crazy and busy, and busy and crazy, and then I took a vacation. I did manage to write a chapter of Secret of the Seas while away (aboard a ship), but since I got back I haven’t had a chance to type it up or edit it.  Hopefully soon.  I also still have some chapters of Disparate Pathways, and Time’s Curse to edit and post - again, soon!

Anyway, go on and drop me an ask and let me know what you’d like to see updated next.  If you drop me an ask like that, I’ll give you a tidbit for the named fic.  How’s that for a fair exchange?

Otherwise, here are some other suggestions for you…

Ask suggestions

Ask something about any of my fics (full list is below the cut). If you want specifics from some fics that are already outlined, you can ask about:

Disparate Pathways, Chapters 48 through 56 All Our Past Mistakes, Chapters 11 through 44 Lover’s Leap Series, Stories 15 through 31 Time’s Curse, Chapters 4 through 10 Laer o Faen, Chapter 27 & 28 Stargate: Atlantis, Harms Way or any of the 20 fics in the series.

Ask something of any of my characters in general or you can get really specific if you like - for example you might want to ask Gold from Pawn Shop a question about a chapter, a thought, a feeling… (the world is your oyster really)

Ask about my process as a writer, what makes me tick,, or even ask about me personally. Almost nothing is off limits.

Also, if you want to see a specific character or fic featured in Three Things Thursday, or Saturday Secret, feel free to send in prompts, if no one does, then either the choice will be random or they just won’t happen at all. I made an analogy for why that might be in a different post about a car stuck in the mud with spinning wheels. Those wheels are still spinning!

Please remember: if you read a fic you enjoyed on AO3 or on Tumblr (not just mine), please take the time to comment and/or leave kudos, and to reach out on TMI Tuesday. It means a lot to the writers and artists.

You can find all my fics currently on AO3 here, and there is a full list under this cut.

of Montreal Announces 'Lady On The Cusp' out May 17 | “Yung Hearts Bleed Free” Single/Video | Headline Tour

Kevin Barnes, Of Montreal, a musical chameleon who has long called Georgia home, first set foot in the vibrant college-rock scene of Athens in 1996. Embracing an ethos of fluidity in both gender and genre, Barnes has crafted complex, delightful records that sparkle with a radical brilliance, powered by personal strife and exuberance. With a career spanning nearly three decades, Barnes and of Montreal have left an indelible mark on stages, televisions, dance floors, stereos, and within the political landscape, both locally and internationally. Now, as they prepare to bid farewell to Athens, of Montreal heralds the arrival of their latest studio venture, Lady On The Cusp, slated for release on May 17 via Polyvinyl Record Co. This album promises to be a magnificent culmination of the band’s explorations, serving as Barnes’ swansong from their Georgia roots as they embrace a new chapter in the snow-capped embrace of southern Vermont. “Lady On The Cusp” emerges from a period of transition, capturing Barnes and their partner, musician Christina Schneider, as they poised themselves for relocation. The album weaves together a rich tapestry of introspection and forward-looking optimism, all presented through Barnes’ signature prism of eclectic pop. The 10-track odyssey navigates a range of emotions—humor and melancholy, sensuality and introspection, levity and depth—ushering listeners into new territories of thought and sound. Leading the charge is the effervescent single “Yung Hearts Bleed Free,” a track that pays homage to Barnes’ influences with a mix of self-deprecation and admiration for the libertine and the lost. Released alongside a captivating video, the song embodies a candid reflection on the imperfections and beauty of a life lived without restraint, marking an exciting pivot point in Barnes’ illustrious career. Lady On The Cusp tracklisting: 1. Music Hurts the Head 2. 2 Depressed 2 Fuck 3. Rude Girl on Rotation 4. Yung Hearts Bleed Free 5. Soporific Cell 6. I Can Read Smoke 7. PI$$ PI$$ 8.

Chapter 10

Dumaan na ang January 2017. I'm 22 now. 2 years old na yung anak ko na iniwan ko. Two years na din akong hindi umuuwe ng Baguio. Graduating ako this year ng law sa May pa actually. I was at the airport na may connecting flight from MNL to SG to Dubai para kitain kapatid ko.

Waiting by the chair sa boarding gate, I sat across Apollo holding a toddler na halos wala pang buhok. Our eyes met and froze. When the boarding gates opened, dumiretso ako habang sya karga-karga pa din ang bata na linuwal ko two years ago at pinabayaan sa tatay nya at sa pamilya nya.

Kasabay ko ang buong angkan nya sa flight na to. Buti nasa business class ako.

Paglapag ng eroplano, nagCR ako at sinundan pala niya ako.

"Ely," hinila nya braso ko.

"Sisigaw ako--bitawan mo Ako."

Mukha syang galit, parang uusok ang ilong.

"Bakit?"

"Go back to your family. Leave me alone."

"Iniwan mo ko ng Basta Basta!"

"Hindi kita asawa."

"Paano yung anak mo?"

"Wala akong anak. Sinurrender ko na pagiging ina ko."

Hinila nya ulit ako. "Sisigaw talaga Ako!"

Saka nya binitawan.

"Pol, iihi din Ako."

Biglang Sabi ng asawa nya at tumalikod Ako agad.

Nasa Dubai na ako at patuloy pa rin ang pagbubulabog nya.

Gusto nyang makipagkita ulit. Hindi Ako pumayag. Tapos na kami. Tapos na yun. Tumigil na din sya.

Nag-aaral na din Ako para sa bar exams. Inigihan ko. Hindi na rn Ako nagka boyfriend kaya Minsan mabilisang hookups na lang. But I wont mess it up. I have realized how much Apollo damaged me. He groomed me, raped me and abused me. Kahit sabihin nya pang mahal niya ako. It fucked me up but I'm still looking for it.

I looked for attention and sex from older men. I wanted rough, I wanted being raped.

Binuntis nya ako and now he and his wife gets fo keep it. Sising sisi ako na hindi.

Simula noong grumaduate ako, wala ako ibang ginawa kundi mag-aral ng mag-aral para sa bar. Nahanap nya bagong Socmed ko kaya panay istorbo nya.

Mabilis umikot ang taon at nakapag-exam ako. 2018, 23 years old ako at naging top 15 lawyer sa Pinas. Syempre, may pacongratulatoy Ang UC dahil doon ang undergrad alma mater ko.

Kinongratulate din ako ni Apollo.

After a month, galing bakasyon, naisipan kong imeet si Apollo. Nagkita kami sa Isang cafe.

Nagkumustuhan at kwinento nya ang anak namin na pinangalanan niyang Prima. Iyon yung isang choice ko na pangalan. Nakikinig pala sya.

Three years old na yung bata at kinagigiliwan ng mga anak nya. Tuwang-tuwa ang asawa na walang kaalam-alam na anak ng asawa nya sa labas na pinapasok niya.

Tinanong ako ni Apollo kung pwede ulit maging kami. Ang sabi ko ayoko na. Tinanong nya ako kung anong ginawa nyang mali.

"Tayo Yung Mali. Ayoko na, please. I'm trying to have a fresh start. Ibigay mo na saken to."

Nung paalis na kami, bigla nya akong hinalikan from cheeks tapos sa labi. Binawian ko sya ng halik bago ko sya tinulak at umalis na.

Nanatili ako sa Baguio and I joined the Prosecutor's office pero Ang specialty ko ay mga white collar and civil cases. Hindi pa ganap na abogado kundi paralegal pa lang.

Nagkaboyfriend ako, si Daniel, 32, at chief of staff ng isang konsehal.

He's good, mabait, sweet but boring sa kama. I always initiate tapos parang ang baba ng tingin sakin dahil mataas sex drive ko. Nagbreak kami after 3 months dahil dun. I had another string of disappointing relationships.

One time nung 2019, I visited UC at nakita ko sya. 40 na sya. Gwapong gwapo pa din.

Death is a process. I’ve used that phrase so many times now. During this process, each organ of the body shuts down at a different rate according to its own internal cellular metabolism. And then this in turn triggers further processes which eventually lead to the decomposition and natural disposal of the body. Dust to dust. The simple process of death that many of us recognize from a bedside may last only seconds – or it can last tens of seconds or even minutes. Technically, it lasts hours as the body dies cell by cell. Some cells, skin and bone, can remain ‘alive’ for as much as a day: these cells continue to metabolize without oxygen until their reserves are finally exhausted. In fact, these cells can be removed and then grown in a laboratory for some days after a body has been certified dead. For a few hours there might be random heartbeats. Digestion may continue. White blood cells can move independently for up to twelve hours. Muscles may twitch. But that’s not life. There may be exhalation. But that’s not breathing. Various definitions try to pin down death, but each definition is a struggle; morally and scientifically. When the individual will never again communicate or deliberately interact with the environment, when he is irreversibly unconscious and unaware of the world and his own existence: that’s death. Of course, that may define someone in a deep sleep or under a general anaesthetic – conditions that are reversible. It may also define someone in a coma or persistent vegetative state. But these patients do have heartbeats and show at least some brainstem activity: that’s not death. When there is no heartbeat, no breath, and the ECG shows a flat line, that’s real death. Occasionally people have told me that they knew the exact moment, sitting at a bedside, when a relative died. But they are almost certainly wrong. They are referring to the time that breathing and heartbeat stopped. They witnessed a somatic death. Cellular death takes longer.

This chapter discusses some of the most common immunological GI diseases seen in clinic, such as autoimmune gastritis, chronic Helicobacter pylori gastritis, celiac disease, inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs; Crohn disease, ulcerative colitis [UC], microscopic colitis).

The gastrointestinal (GI) tract has the greatest concentration of immune cells of any organ in the body. The gut employs a number of strategies to promote mucosal structural integrity and maintain homeostatic immune regulation in response to continuous exposure to environmental and dietary antigens, as well as commensal microbes, pathogens, and their metabolic products. Despite these defences, the gastrointestinal tract is vulnerable to chronic immune-mediated inflammation from pathogenic organisms, as well as autoimmunity and immunodeficiency.

This chapter discusses some of the most common immunological diseases of the GI tract that are likely to be encountered in the clinic, such as autoimmune gastritis, chronic Helicobacter pylori gastritis, celiac disease, Crohn disease, ulcerative colitis, microscopic colitis, and eosinophilic esophagitis, and GI complications of primary immunodeficiency. The coverage focuses on clinical manifestations, disease mechanisms, and approaches to diagnosis and treatment for these conditions.

More than 80 different autoimmune diseases affect nearly 4% of the world's population, the most common of which are type 1 diabetes, multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, Crohn's disease, psoriasis, and scleroderma.

There are two types of immunity: active and passive:

When our own immune system is in charge of protecting us from a pathogen, this is referred to as active immunity.

Passive immunity occurs when we are protected from a pathogen by the immunity of another person.

Immunity is classified into two types: innate and adaptive.

The innate immune system: rapid and all-around effectiveness. The skin and mucous membranes provide protection. Immune system cells (defence cells) and proteins provide protection. The adaptive immune system: Directly combating germs. T lymphocytes are immune cells.

Immunologic tests use an antigen to detect the presence of antibodies to a pathogen in the specimens, or an antibody to detect the presence of an antigen in the specimens. Laboratory immunological tests are created by creating artificial antibodies that exactly "match" the pathogen in question.

Primary: These are genetic disorders that are usually hereditary and are usually present at birth.

Secondary: These disorders usually appear later in life and are often caused by the use of certain medications or by another disorder, such as diabetes.

#JamesDonaldson On #MentalHealth - Study Reveals The Job Problems Contributing To #Physician #Suicide

Physical and #mentalhealth, #substanceuse, #relationships, legal matters and #finances all contribute to #physician #suicide, UC San Diego study shows Peer-Reviewed Publication IMAGE: KRISTEN KIM, MD, IS A RESIDENT #PHYSICIAN IN PSYCHIATRY AT UC SAN DIEGO HEALTH. view more CREDIT: UC SAN DIEGO HEALTH SCIENCES #Physician burnout and #suicide are a growing public health concern, with 1 in 15 #physicians experiencing #suicidalideation. Studies consistently show that #physicians are more likely than non-#physicians to experience work-related stressors prior to #suicide. Still, the exact nature of these stressors was unknown. To better understand and characterize the job stressors that contribute to #physician #suicide, researchers at UC San Diego Health reviewed the death investigation narratives from 200 #physician suicides collected by a national database between 2003 and 2018. Using natural language processing and thematic analysis — tools for extracting and interpreting data from the reports — the team was able to identify the main issues contributing to physician job #stress and #suicide.  The study, published June 29, 2022 in #Suicide and Life-Threatening #Behavior, found six overarching themes in the reports. These included an incapacity to work due to deterioration of physical health, substance use that was jeopardizing employment, the interaction between #mentalhealth and work-related issues, relationship conflicts affecting work, legal problems and increased #financial #stress.  “We often overlook the physical health of our #healthcareworkers, but poor health can lead to difficulty performing tasks at work, which then leads to job stress and #mentalhealthissues,” said corresponding author Kristen Kim, MD, a resident #physician in psychiatry at UC San Diego Health.  The authors outlined several short- and long-term solutions for #healthcaresystems to consider.  In the short-term, they stressed the need to improve physicians’ access to primary care services, minimize their scheduling challenges, and address their concerns about confidentiality. Kim encouraged #healthcareworkers to utilize resources like the UC San Diego Healer Education Assessment and Referral (HEAR) program, which provides access to confidential #mentalhealth counseling and was recently endorsed by the U.S. Surgeon General’s Advisory on Health Worker Burnout. In the long-term, the authors called for broader structural and cultural changes to address workplace stress and poor #physician #self-care.   “The unspoken culture of medicine encourages self-sacrifice, deferred needs and delayed rewards,” said Kim. “We always want to put our #patients first, but healers cannot optimally heal unless they themselves are first whole.”  The authors highlighted the importance of cultivating a sense of safety and community among #physicians. They also suggested that #healthcaresystems and medical #schools provide additional personal finance education and legal support.  “There is a lot of work to be done,” said Kim, “but identifying and acknowledging the problem is always the first step towards a solution, and that’s exactly what we’re doing.” Co-authors include: Gordon Y. Ye, Nicholas Kos, Sidney Zisook and Judy E. Davidson at UC San Diego, as well as Angela Maria Haddad at Universidad Autónoma de Guadalajara. #James Donaldson notes:Welcome to the “next chapter” of my life… being a voice and an advocate for #mentalhealthawarenessandsuicideprevention, especially pertaining to our younger generation of students and student-athletes.Getting men to speak up and reach out for help and assistance is one of my passions. Us men need to not suffer in silence or drown our sorrows in alcohol, hang out at bars and strip joints, or get involved with drug use.Having gone through a recent bout of #depression and #suicidalthoughts myself, I realize now, that I can make a huge difference in the lives of so many by sharing my story, and by sharing various resources I come across as I work in this space.  #http://bit.ly/JamesMentalHealthArticleOrder your copy of James Donaldson's latest book,#CelebratingYourGiftofLife:From The Verge of Suicide to a Life of Purpose and Joy   www.celebratingyourgiftoflife.com Photo by Pixabay on Pexels.com Read the full article

TMI Tuesday

Happy Tuesday!

Late, late, late today, but finally here. Been writing, still hitting those daily goals. Tomorrow is a TWD (not The Walking Dead, though it may as well be - teacher work day), so I can stay up late today... if I can stay awake that is. It’s already past my bed time.

I finished Disparate Pathways. That’s a really strange feeling.  Relief and sorrow both at the same time.  It’s not all edited or posted though so... I’ll see it again for a while.

Since no one wrote me which fic they’d like to see me write next (as folks were invited to do), I had to choose one myself, so I’m now working on Time’s Curse, another book AU.

So... hit me up with some questions about those fics or any others you might want to know about... anything you want to know.

Here are some other suggestions for you…

Ask suggestions

Ask something about any of my fics (full list is below the cut). If you want specifics from some fics that are already outlined, you can ask about:

Disparate Pathways, Chapters 46 through 56 All Our Past Mistakes, Chapters 11 through 44 Lover’s Leap Series, Stories 15 through 31 Time’s Curse, Chapters 4 through 10 Laer o Faen, Chapter 27 & 28 Stargate: Atlantis, Harms Way or any of the 20 fics in the series.

Ask something of any of my characters in general or you can get really specific if you like - for example you might want to ask Gold from Pawn Shop a question about a chapter, a thought, a feeling… (the world is your oyster really)

Ask about my process as a writer, what makes me tick,, or even ask about me personally. Almost nothing is off limits.

Also, if you want to see a specific character or fic featured in Three Things Thursday, or Saturday Secret, feel free to send in prompts, if no one does, then either the choice will be random or they just won’t happen at all. I made an analogy for why that might be in a different post about a car stuck in the mud with spinning wheels. Those wheels are still spinning!

Please remember: if you read a fic you enjoyed on AO3 or on Tumblr (not just mine), please take the time to comment and/or leave kudos, and to reach out on TMI Tuesday. It means a lot to the writers and artists.

You can find all my fics currently on AO3 here, and there is a full list under this cut.
