    It was surprising that such a prolific writer made so many mistakes with the choice of pronouns. This fault was almost corrected as the story series continued but other faults persisted such as the use of 'to' or 'too'. Occasionally words and/or letters are omitted or, conversely, words and/or letters are added which do not fit into the text, the services of a professional editor are required.
    The difficulty in writing so many stories on the same subject is to avoid repetition otherwise the readers gain the impression that having read one story they have read them all. Unfortunately, because the stories all deal with the transition period of a transgender's life, there are long, repeated dressing sequences, even the clothes are similar styles, patterns and colours. more variation is needed.
    The reasons for dressing are mostly unconvincing and, in real life, would end with a simple refusal. The most common reason for dressing is because the subject wants to or feels compelled to dress and will probably accept any excuse to do so.
    The stories end abruptly at the point when a decision has been made to complete the transition. It would be better to use stories such as 'The Gown' or 'My Little Black Dress' as the opening chapters of much longer books. Reading a few of this type of publication should provide plenty of new ideas for longer stories.

Another great story Janet, there were a lot of head games going on between mom and her new daughter to get a do it or don't, yes or no.  It was almost pure luck for her to get a job so easily, not that way in real life!

I have read almost every story you have here in a week. They are excellent and I'd really want to read more. I've also read several at TG Comics. You are an excellent writer and somehow I know I'll be searching for more and praying I find them.

You have captured the way I've felt all my life (and I'm sure others). As I child, a teen and through my mid-twenties I've done just the same as many of your characters. I was never caught by my Mom or any others over the years. Somehow I always thought my Mom knew and never said anything, just giving me the time and ability to be myself. I very much like the Mom's and understanding older sisters in your stories wishing one were in my life.

I spent my life as society demands, however I still have that dream and they have been with me every night of my life. Many of my dreams are so much like your stories, of course with a similar happy ending ... living as the woman who has always been inside me.

Thank you so very much. Take care and God bless.

Kimberly (the name I chose years ago)

your stories are wonderful .But a bit boring and i doubt your point that all boys wants to be girls.I think that it would be a nice variation to get a story of a young man ,Who goes on changing from woman and back to man ,and living most of his life as a man and enjoying the best of both sexes.Your talent would create a inspiring story..

WELL I HAVE FINALLY READ ALL YOUR STORIES HERE. I WILL NOW LOOK ELSEWHERE. I WILL MISS YOUR WIT AND CHARM HERE.

Comment by Jill Micayla on 08/19/07
I just read this, don't know how I missed it. I like how your dialogue also tells the story.  I have fun reading your stories, my imgaination goes into overtime and from your writing I can visuaize the entire story as I read it.
I know  a lot of guys who probably feel just like your main character, try on a dress for the first time and they are suddenly sold on being feminine.
I only wish my mom was like his.
You do a superb job of writing please, submit you newest so those of us who like purity can enjoy.

Potential Spoiler Warning

A sweet, lovely story of a boy finding out he is a transexual.  Very well written as usual.  I agree with Pervy's comments about Mom catching on right away, even before "Debra" figured out what was really going on.

Keep up the good work.

Great story! This one deserves a sequel.

Anxious to see more of your stories.

Comment by Sassi on 01/20/04
HOORAY!!!  My JLS withdrawal symptoms are finally subsiding!  It is great to see you back Janet.  As I have told you before, you are, in my humble opinion, the best TG writer around!

Thanks for the new story, I loved it!

Comment by Pervette on 01/19/04
So good to see another Janet Stickney story again! You seem to be
an inexhaustible source of ways to feminize adolescent boys. This
story seemed a bit more plausible, since Mom caught on right away
when things began to get out of hand and took a pretty dim view of
the way they were developing. But our girl made it, in the end,
just the same! A delightful story. Hope to see many more.

It's great to see a new story!  Don't listen to the detractors, there are MANY of us who love your stories.  Please keep up the good work!

Comment by Paula on 01/18/04
Janet it was a pleasent surprise to see a new story from you posted. Wonderful work.

Comment by Patrice on 01/18/04
Sorry.  I had hoped you would come up with something a bit different or more clever.  Instead, it's just more of the same story you've been writing for many, many years complete with the gay fantasizing.  How sad one who writes so well has such a limited imagination.

Comment by Barbara on 01/18/04
Janet, It so nice to see you up and writing again This was a great story.  Looking forward to the next one(s).  Keep up the good work

Comment by Becky on 01/18/04
Great to see your writing again, you have such talent, not just in the tg aspect of the story but the plot as well, i have read every one of your stories and love them all, please keep writing.          Love Becky                                                           P.s. If you like TG captions i have a club on lycos that does only realistic tg captions, meaning no body swaps, medillions, body suits, etc.....only realistic changes. Your all welcome to come by, but needed to join lycos first, it free.
