If you get a comment from me saying to click a link DONT! Erase it and send me a note about it instead.

-------------------------------------
;::---COMMISSIONS---:::
I am now ready to do commissions again. Just send me a note or email me at Mekaritemple@yahoo.com and tell me what you want and i'll give you a price ^.^

-------------------------------------
:::---BETWEEN THE LINES CHANGES---:::
For those of you that visit the website you already know that i'm redoing the first chapter but for those of you who did not know this I assure you that we are not starting over this time, with the regular comic updates you'll just notice that the chapter 1&2 pages are being replaced. Now if you liked the older pages then don't worry about that either, you can still view them on the website.

Redoing the first two chapters I believe will flesh the characters out more not only with the art but also with changes to some of the dialouge. I know you're gonna love them ^.^

Sun Jul 20, 2008, 11:29 PM
Sorry for the looong wait!
I had a huge misadventure up
in Philly and am now living
in Charlottesville VA where
Bryce and Savvas are currently
located, luckily Bryce did
not send any pages through the
mail so I was able to direct
when I could, the only thing
keeping us from updating on a
regular basis now is a scanner
and regular internet access =/

Also selling BtL merch [link]
to try and raise funds for a
scanner and to afford internet
access so please people if you
like this comic or just love
the artwork then buy some merch
to help keep this wonderful
comic and art thingy going.

WHITE-ASH
I am calling out to everyone who is interested in helping out with this series, artists, writers or anyone willing to give suggestions come forth and tell me! The galaxy this takes place in and the story itsself is already rich but much more could be added to it with your creative talents!

The White-Ash story takes place in a galaxy called Uri and is about a species that changes the course of the galaxy's history. The story has three different parts with three different main characters. The first part of the story sets up the apocalypse and focuses on a Human named Omni who documents the final days of the White-Ash species. The second part focuses on a White-Ash named Web who brings about the apocalypse. The third part is the aftermath and focuses on a White-Ash/Human halfbreed survivor who sets up the universe's renewal.

An underlining story in all three parts deals with a mysterious orb that seems to have a mind of it's own. Only in the third part of the series do we find out what it actually is.

The enemies in this story are an extremely advanced technological species called the Av'Arul who rule over the known planets(Think the Roman Empire). The White-Ash have what Av'Arul call "magic" the WA call it their "Essence". The Av'Arul want to know how to use this ability for their own gains and so have exterminated and experimented on every species found to have this "magic"

Another species of note are the Mystiks who have hidden themselves from the eyes of the Av'Arul for thousands of years. The Mystiks can also use their "Essence" but to a much greater degree than the White-Ash and when this species revealed themselfs they were more than a match for the Av'Arul, but a winner never emerged due to the Destruction(apocalypse) which wiped them out.

So if your interested then contact me.

I hate it when therapists, if they are not transgender themselves, claim that they know transgenderism better than someone who is actually transgender and I get especially angered when they think they know what the life of a transgender person is like, the view of so called "docters" like Zucker comes from bigotry and a lack of outside research, you know I was very frightend back when I was led to believe it was a disorder, I was led to believe it was wrong and you know i've always loved history and I wanted to delve deeper and search for the odd things that most people don't get to learn about and I found an entire history of transgenderism that goes back to the beginning of recorded human history and cuts across most if not all cultures and in some of those cultures yes we were outcast but in many of them we were divine, special, gifts from the Gods and to figure out how that turned, well thats easy to figure out so i'll let you make that connection yourself. After finding all this out I was filled with pride, a sense of wholeness and happiness that I never felt before. Remember therapists like Zucker want you to conform to this society, to a binary system that was not always in existence. Remember that "therpists" like Zucker CANNOT tell you more about transgenderism than a transgender person and even then you have to be careful, hell by all accounts i'm a better gender therapist than most of these kooks and before you say it I am not a person who encourages others to transition, very much the opposite in fact the big difference is that I don't think in binary terms, I don't put religion behind it and I don't believe in the black and white, from everything i've seen and experienced humanity is extremely diverse but our minds have a hard time catching up.

You don't label kids I agree with that but none of these parents done anything to make their children behave like this they were just as perplexed about it as any parent and asked what they did wrong just like any parent in this culture would so really this behavior IS their natural state and Zuker says going with the flow creates more transgenders i'm sorry but there is plenty of evidence to the contrary from other cultures still in existence that do not treat the behavior as something odd, yes they don't label untill the kids get older but they are allowed to socialize and play with whatever they want.

Course in the end there are always exceptions which seems to be an idea that most people have a hard time accepting due to our binary system for instance they "cure" a few people of homosexuality and suddenly they think homosexuality is entirely curable yeah some people are led into it for various reasons but they are exceptions i've talked to a few people who wanted to transition and after talking to them for a bit they decided that it was prolly not a good idea for them to do so exceptions, just know thyself nad know the world then you can find out who you really are and what you need to do heh if you could do that you would not need therapists.

"In the meantime, though, Zucker's approach continues to thrive. He says nearly 80 children are on the waiting list at his clinic in Toronto." Well yes seeing how your clinic is what, one in two clinics that "specialize" in transgenderism up there?

Review & Erase

Thu May 1, 2008, 8:12 AM
Ok i've erased the old versions of BtL chapters 1&2 cause I was was tired of people looking at them and thinking that they were the current versions and much to my surprise most of the pages were still getting 3 hits a day, I just wanted to keep them to show artistic improvement, it was the first comic I drew myself and I went into it expecting to learn more and more as I went along but recently there have been comments on the old pages, people thinking that its the current version so I did what I thought best.

On another note, in case you did not know we got our first review! ^.^

I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.

I am the boy who never finished high school, because I got called a fag everyday

I am the kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.

I am the working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.

I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.

We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.

I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.

I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.

I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.

We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.

I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.

I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.

I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.

I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.

I am the woman who died when the EMTs stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.

I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didnt have to always deal with society hating me.

I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.

I am a warrior for my country serving proud, but can't be my true self because gays aren't allowed in the military.

I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.

I am the person ashamed to tell my own friends I'm a lesbian, because they constantly make fun of them.

I am the who isn't sure what she is. I am the who is rejected by her "best friends" because of a less-than-conventional crush.

I am the girl who is afraid to tell her parents she is bi because they believe homosexuality is unnatural and a choice

I am the boy tied to a fence, beaten to a y pulp and left to die because two straight men wanted to "teach me a lesson."

This is the boy, Matthew Shepard. On October 7, 1998 Aaron McKinney and Russell Henderson lead him to a remote area east of Laramie where they demonstrated unimaginable acts of . Matthew was tied to a split-rail fence where he was beaten and left to die in the cold of the night. Almost 18 hours later he was found by a cyclist who initially mistook him for a scarecrow. Matthew died on October 12 at 12:53 am at a hospital in Fort Collins, Colorado. KILLED BECAUSE HE WAS GAY!!!
