Counting Down to the 2028 50th Anniversary of my first published book (September 23, 1978)
Happy 2026!
It is our 30th anniversary here at Space Dock 13!
On the web since 1996!
You have encountered an extremely old website that continues to exist in old web ways, the same way it has done for now three decades.
In spite of being now 30 years old this year, started in 1996, it is still heavily active and old pages updated daily, new pages added daily, still now in 2026. All hand written, all hand coded (no AI), all by me, same as it ever was.
We Still Exist: The Old Web Did Not Go Away, You Just Forgot How To Find Us

This site was NOT designed for mobile devices (as they had not been invented yet when I created it) thus this site looks best on a computer, at 1280x768 or above. |
This is a very old website created in 1996, so, yes, javascript is needed for the site to work as it should. If things don't function, you may need to update javascript drivers on your device |
This site tries to be mobile friendly but it's been online since 1996, so old pages may not load right on mobile devices, and as this site has had pages added near daily for 30 years there are now over 20k pages here. |
Having started out in life as a GeoCities site, this site contains glitter, bright colours, blinkies, moving gifs, and other things the old web was known for. |

 Wendy Christine Allen, 2019, able to sit up in a chair for the first time in years, and able to raise up my arm and wiggle fingers. This was when I started playing Witcher 3 on Twitch as part of my physical therapy to regain finger movement. Playing Witcher 3 daily from 2016 to 2019, is how I regained the use of my thumb and two for fingers on my right hand... it is also why I stopped playing Witcher 3 in 2019, once I had strengthen my two forefingers enough to start typing again.Wendy Christine Allen, Old Orchard Beach's Autistic Author, Artist, Illustrator, & Art Car Designer Counting Down to the September 23, 2028 50th Anniversary of my first published book (September 23, 1978) If you are here looking for The Twighlight Manor series, The Crystonite Wars series, The Wild Years series, The White Rock Asylum for the Criminally Insane series, The Twisted Tales series, the Captured By a MerMan series, The Space Dock 13 series, The Kats of Planet Ptarmagin series, the stories about Miss Citten the Eel-Kat, or the stories about Etiole...

I shouldn't have to say this, but people keep contacting me, so apparently I do:
- No, I do not believe in aliens. Stop contacting me to ask for alien information. If you believe in aliens, I think you are insane, retarded, or both.
- No, my car is not haunted. I've debunked that rumour many times now. . Stop contacting me to ask for haunted car information. If you believe in haunted cars, I think you are insane, retarded, or both.
- No, I am not connected to Stephen King. I didn't even know who he was until you idiots started contacting me asking about him. I had to look him up on Google to find out what you were even talking about! If you have questions about Stephen King, go contact him and ask him. I'm not him. I don't know him. I know nothing about him. I've never read one of his books. I've never seen one of his movies. I can't figure out why you people are even coming to me to ask about him in the first place!
- If someone told you I believe in aliens, if someone told you my car was haunted, if someone told you I was connected to Stephen King, you NEED to contact the FBI agent in charge of my son's murder investigation and TELL HIM WHO it was who told ou, exactly WHAT it was they said, HOW they contacted you, WHERE they contacted you... because it is a KNOWN FACT that my son's murderer is the one who started all these slanderous alien, haunted car, Stephen King rumours, and the FBI is trying to catch her.
If you have any information about my son’s murderer, please give it to FBI Agent Andy Drewer at 207–774–9322 of the Portland, Maine FBI office.
Do you know who this woman is?
On August 8, 2013 she drove a backhoe over my house. On November 14, 2013 she arrived at Southern Maine Community College and crippled me with a golf club and murdered my son. One June 24, 2016, days after my first attempts to walk again, she attacked me with a shopping cart at Scarborough, Walmart, reinjuring the Nov 14, 2013 injury.
She crippled me when I was 8 months pregnant, a woman with a golf club, severed my spine and bashed my baby's head in, I spent 9 years relearning to walk, and the FBI is 13 years into the murder investigation and not yet id-ed the attacker who crippled me and killed my baby, both violently with a golf club.
Complete details of EVERYTHING she did is on this page here.
 The golf club woman who called herself Clair as she looked November 14, 2013. Her hair is a weird chin leangth pageboy (very Medival style cut) platinum blonde with wide brown/black dyed stripes in it (like a reverse of Lily Munster, but the stripes are several, almost like a zebra). I am 5'6" and she was a LOT taller then me, like closer to the height of a man; she had thin lips like a man, and large nose like a man... she COULD have been a man disguised as a woman, given the ease with which she severed my spine....she's is a LOT stronger then is typical for a woman). She was wearing a chambre blue denim "blazer jacket over shirt" and a button up mens shirt (possibly flannel) and blue jeans. The bulk of her yelling was focused on accusing me of being transgender, even while ripping my baby out of my 8 month pregnant belly and bashing his head in with a golf club. |
 The Claire woman as she looked during her shoping cart attack at Scarborough WalMart June 2016, the attack with left me paralyzed and in a wheelchair. Her hair was dyed dark red, and she drove away in a gold Volvo 240 Station Wagon of a late 1980s/early1990s model, with a "458" on the lisnce plate.... If you have any information about the woman who crippled me with a golf club, please give it to FBI Agent Andy Drewer at 207–774–9322 of the Portland, Maine FBI office. |

I am sick and tired of people not giving a shit that my son was murdered!
I am sick and tired of jackasses making up rumours and lies about me and my car, calling me an alien abductee and my car haunted, just to try to cover up my son's murder!

FR NEED HELP!
Just let me know your suggestions or you think i need to keep in mind or do anything in the journey.
I'm at the basics, But working to upskill in the SEO field through creating ai blog post with my modifications in the content. I'm looking to create me as a personal brand on the social media in the field with journey of my every step to forward ! I'm just also looking to work on my agency's SEO.
>I'm looking to create me as a personal brand
No one becomes a personal brand until AFTER they are famous.
To become famous you FIRST have to do something noteworthy.
People do not follow average Joe's. People follow someone interesting. Someone different. Someone who stands out from the crowd.
So to build yourself as a personal brand, your first step is to do something fan worthy. Do something to make people want to be your fan.
Take authors for example.
Many people have an idea, but few write it down.
Of the few who write it down, even fewer ever go on to flesh it out.
Of the few who flesh out their idea, even fewer ever go on to finish writing it.
Of the few who finish writing their book, even fewer go on to edit it.
Of the few who edit their book, even fewer go on to publish it.
Did you know that over four thousand books are published every day on Amazon KDP?
Did you know that there are more than twenty million authors on Amazon?
Did you also know that since Amazon started KDP in 2007 that there have been fewer than one thousand authors who sold more than one hundred thousand books?
Did you know that the average traditionally published book will only ever sell five thousand copies in its lifetime?
Did you know that the average self published book will only ever sell five hundred copies in its lifetime.
Did you know that there are over twenty million authors on Amazon whom have YET to earn their first one hundred dollar payment? And many of them have been published for over a decade now?
Did you also know that since 2010 I have sold over ten MILLION copies of my books, and I am in the top 7% highest selling authors in the world?
Did you also know that unless you read Yaoi, you probably never heard of me or my books, in spite of my being one of the top one thousand highest selling novelists of all time?
Why is this possible?
Branding.
Narrow focused targeted branding.
I don't target my brand towards EVERYONE because most people will have ZERO interest in my brand.
But within the community that DOES want my brand, they know me by my brand.
What do people think of when they hear my name?
PINK.
They think a pink Volvo, a pink Dodge Sportsman Motorhome, a pink website, a transvestite Elf who wears pink dresses, a serial killing pink unicorn who eats Humans and skewers their skulls on his horn, pink book covers, pink, pink, pink, pink, and more pink.
When my fans line up at conventions and book signings to meet me, what do they expect to see?
PINK.
Flamboyant pink extremes. Me wearing rhinestone encrusted pink silk, massive pink hats, gigantic pink hoop skirts, and me CosPlaying The Pink Necromancer.
Pink is my brand.
2028 will be the 50th anniversary of my first book featuring The Pink Necromancer.
I've spent almost five decades making PINK, eye popping day glow trimmed bubble gum pink, my brand.
After pink, what else do people think?
Elves and Unicorns.
I'm the world's top authority on Elves and Unicorns, and I have been since 1978.
For five decades people have come to me to ask for advice on how to write Elves and Unicorns, how to create Elf and Unicorn characters, and how to build Elf and Unicorn societies.
THAT is my personal brand. I am the world's number one go to expert whom new wannabe young writers contact when they want to know how to write anything related to Elves and Unicorns. And they know to find me by looking for my pink EVERYTHING.
Pink, Elves, and Unicorns THAT is my personal brand.
BUT… outside of the Yaoi community, you likely never heard of me at all. And yet, I have sold over ten million books.
I am not a well known or household name, but I have sold more books than the average New York Times list best-selling author will ever sell in their lifetime.
Why?
How?
By knowing exactly WHO the people who want my products are and targeting ONLY them.
It would be a waste of marketing money for me to mass market my books or my brand to the general public, because the general public is going to be largely uninterested in me, my brand, or the products my brand sells.
There is no point in tossing my brand in front of people who would never touch it with a ten foot pole. And THIS is WHY I sell books in leaps and bounds, while so many other authors flounder.
Because I am well aware that my product (Gay Romance novels about Gay Elves dating Gay Unicorns) is NOT for everyone. So, I do not market it to everyone.
They buy ads on Amazon and Facebook and dump tens of thousands of dollars into telling the general public mass market readers of Amazon and Facebook book about their book, and wonder why they got no sales.
The answer is simple. Their personal brand is not something the general mass market public is interested in.
You don't market Romance novels to Dark Souls gamers.
You don't market decon to pet rat owners.
You don't market Volvo parts to Chevy drivers.
You don't market a butcher shop to a vegan.
Knowing your audience is an integral part of personal branding.
You can not build yourself up as an in demand brand that people want, until you first know what it is people want. But, you also have to realize every sub culture in society has different wants and needs.
If your personal brand is heavy in black lace Vampire Goth Fashion, you'll not find many followers by pushing ads in front of the pink glitter BarbieCore crowd.
You have to decide WHAT exactly your personal brand is.
Your personal brand is YOU.
Okay. But who ARE you?
And WHY should people care?
Figure that out first.
Next figure out WHO cares about the type of brand you are.
Then, figure out WHERE that type of person hangs out.
This is what I did. I made myself a personal brand. I built an identity. I created a product. I researched who wanted that product. I tailored my product to meet their demands. Then I strategically placed my product ONLY on the locations those types of people hung out.
I did not waste my time or money, trying to get my products in front of everyone, everywhere.
Personal branding is not about trying to get your face in front of EVERYONE everywhere. It's about getting your face ONLY in front of the type of people who are most likely to be interested in what you have to offer.
Trying to be everything to everyone in every place is going to cause you to crash and burn big time.
You need to narrow focus WHO you plan to sell to, figure out what you can provide that they ACTUALLY WANT,and only then can you start figuring out how to brand yourself in such a way that they will prefer you over your direct competitors.
Personal branding is about getting your face in front of the right people, in the right places, at the right time.
What I mean is, you have to BECOME what the people of a SPECIFIC GROUP want.
If you try to please everyone, you'll end up satisfying no one.
So, BEFORE you can become a personal brand, you FIRST have to figure out what you have, what you can provide, and then you have to figure out who wants what you have, how will you provide it to them. And target ONLY THAT ONE GROUP OF PEOPLE.
Who are YOUR people?
What do YOUR people want from you?
This is how you become a personal brand. By providing people with what they want. By doing it in such a unique to you alone way, that they can not get it from anyone else.
The reason so many brands fail early in their startup phase is because they spend too much time thinking about me, myself, and I, instead of thinking about how they please others, how they can serve others, what they can give to others.
Remember, people are just as selfish as you are, your audience DOES NOT care about you and they never well. Your audience ONLY cares about what they can mooch off of you, and if you are too busy trying to meet your own needs, to meet their needs first, then you'll never earn an income and your needs will never be met.
THAT is the number one reason for EVERY business failure.
They focus on me, me, me, me, me, me, and oh yeah, me. They forgot to focus on their audience. **Your content is NOT for you. Your content is for your audience.** If you put this idea front and center in your mind, and keep it as your primary motto while planning your career, you will already be leaps and bounds ahead of more than 80% of other startups.
Keep telling yourself **Your content is NOT for you. Your content is for your audience.** Tell yourself this every step of the way.
Why?
Because if you want to become a personal brand, you need to become a person whom other people WANT to follow. And you do that by satisfying THEIR needs NOT your needs.
>creating ai blog post with my modifications
And newsflash, if you are using AI to write your blogs, then you haven't got a clue what a blog even is. Heck, if you are using AI to write blog posts, I seriously doubt you know what the phrase personal brand means either.
When I land on a blog I expect to see actual blog posts aka logs written by the blogger. Traditionally a log is a daily update in a journal of a ship's captain, to keep track of daily events, news, changes in weather, ect. Logs are meant to inform the reader, traditionally to inform the crew of information in case the ship's captain becomes ill and someone else needs to take over the ship, they can read the captain's log and see exactly all the information they need to know to keep the ship operational.
A blog is based on that concept.
A blog is a place where a person posts daily updates on a topic affecting their life. For example a dog groomer blogs daily logs about the dogs her clients bring in, an aggressive chihuahua that needed to be sedated to get his nails trimmed, a giant newfoundland who broke her grooming table, her supplier sent the wrong shampoo... readers return each day to get the daily gossip of who's dog is going to do what next.
If you are a car blogger, I'd expect to see an auto mechanic talking about which car his clients brought in today. The 1987 Honda Civic with 300k miles, the 1991 Volvo with 2.5million marbles glued to it... as a builder of art cars, a builder of Monster trucks, and restorer of antique cars, (I am EelKat) I would be very interested in reading the daily logs of an auto mechanic but... I have ZERO interest in reading generic dime a dozen crap an ai spit out.
You will not succeed in being a personal brand if you are not a practitioner of what you preach, because you will have no clue if ai is preaching inaccuracies. If you are a car blogger and you have some hugely inaccurate info that people like me who actually repair cars are going to notice, this will kill your personal brand fast... this is why ai fails... because most people who use it are not well enough informed via personal hands on experience in their topic to fact check it.
Personal branding works, when readers have a reason to actually read your daily logs about your daily job in your daily life. TO FIND OUT DEEPLY PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOU PERSONALLY… **THAT IS WHAT BEING A PERSONAL BRAND MEANS!!!**
If you are a personal brand it's YOUR REAL FACE in the blog.
If you are a personal brand it's YOUR REAL FAMILY in the blog.
If you are a personal brand it's YOUR REAL HOUSE in the blog.
If you are a personal brand it's YOUR REAL CAR in the blog.
PERSONAL MEANS YOU ARE THE TOPIC!
PERSONAL BRAND YOU ARE THE BRAND!
Remember it's not a blog is it's not a diary of your daily life.
There is an awful people out there who try to scam people by calling content writing blogging. But content writing is NOT blogging.
Writing articles about niche topics is NOT blogging.
A blog is an online daily web log of your offline daily life. That is the definition of a blog.
And no AI can write your daily life for you.
And it's not a personal brand, if you are not the primary product before promoted.

 |
Think about this: you are not the AI.
The AI is not YOU.
If you are using AI the blogs are NOT personal.
If the blogs are not personal, you are NOT a personal brand.
What you are talking about doing is not personal, not daily updates of your career, your life, your family, your hobbies, and so readers have no incentive to return each day. No incentive to become fans of you.
And without fans, you gain no followers.
Without followers, you do not gain brand recognition.
Without brand recognition, you do not become known as a personal brand.
If all your site is generic dime a dozen links to products, that does not build brand either, because why would anyone buy random products off some no name randos page when they could buy those same products from a store that they trust, like Amazon or Walmart?
Having AI help you write your personal experiences is one thing... Having AI spit out generic random crap is another thing entirely.
If there is nothing personal about your site, that's going to turn people away.
If you are going to be a personal brand, you need things you are known for. What color do you always wear? What phrase do you always say? What things do people think of when they hear your name?
When people hear my name, they think three things: pink, Elves, and Unicorns. What are the three things people think about when they hear YOUR name? However you answer that question, those 3 things are what you should be incorporating into your personal brand identity.
What do people think of when they hear Iris Apfel? Big round glasses. She made the huge, chunky round glasses she wore, her brand. Today at age 102 years old, she's also one of the world's top fashion eyeglasses fashion designer now, known for what? Designing the biggest, wildest, chunkier, mega huge round Eyewear out there. She did not start out as a designer of eye glasses. In the 1950s she was an interior decorator. But she wore those huge glasses, and those glasses became her brand, people could never remember her name, but they always remembered her glasses and they'd say “hey, you remember that fashion designer from the 1950s, the woman with the big round glasses, you know the one they designed the Incredibles character to look like?” Her huge glasses became so much a part of her brand, that she switched from interior decorating to designing fashion eyeglasses.
Iris Apfel is a perfect example of a personal brand. A woman who took a single detail about herself (her huge round glasses), ran with it, made it the central focus of her personal brand, and now there isn't anyone on the planet who hasn't at least heard of “that fashion designer with the big round glasses”, even if they don't know her name or anything else about her.
Now think about your AI blog.
Is that REALLY what you want your personal brand to be known for? Do you want people to know you as “That blogger who uses AI”. Think about it.
Unless you use AI to do something insanely original and extremely unique, no one is going to respect you enough to follow your blog.
If you want to be a personal brand, you NEED to be writing about YOURSELF. No AI can do that for you, because no AI knows who YOU are on a deeply personal level.
Hope this helps you out. Good luck with your project!

For Anyone Looking for:My response to MUFON's Amphibious Aliens? My response to Coast to Coast AMs Arrival in my yard?
Wendy Christine Allen, Old Orchard Beach's Autistic Author, Artist, Illustrator, & Art Car Designer Counting Down to the 2028 50th Anniversary of my first published book (September 23, 1978) Yes, I am aware there are a lot of spelling errors on this site. No, I likely will not be fixing most of them. I have been quadriplegia/paralyzed arms and legs since November 14, 2013; As of 2026, I have regained use of two fully functional fingers on my right hand, and only stiff limited movement of all remained eight fingers. This causes most of the typos and spelling errors as my near-dead pinky and ring fingers tend to drag over the other letters on the keyboard. Attempts to correct errors, often causes more errors for the same reason. Much of my writing is also speech to text, but I have "profound low functioning, non-verbal kanner's syndrome aka autism aka the rainman type" (that is what the medical diagnosis called it), I have the medically diagnosed retarded type of autism, that medical doctors mean when they say "real and actual autism", I do not have the cool trend self diagnoses tiktok type of "autism". What this means is, in spite of five decades of trying, I have very limited vocal speaking abilities and a lower then average vocabulary, that leaves my speaking ability around the level of a 4 or 5 year old child; I do not know math or money or clocks and. I also, was raised by a Shetland Scottish Grandmother (Helen Ricker Allen) until her death when I was 8 years old, and she did not speak American, she spoke Shetland/Scottish, Shetlandic, which is a Nordic language, different from Scotts Language, not related to Gaelic which is what many Scottish speak, and while classified as a type of Scottish English is is considered "Olde medieval Norse" dialect of Scottish English and spoken by fewer then two thousand people as of 2026. It is the language of Scottish Travelling Gypsies, which is what we racial are. I was 31 years old first time I ever heard American English, and only started to learn American English at 42 years old. Right now in 2026 at 51 years old, I am able to speak American English on around the level of an 8 year old child, and greatly do not understand over 90% of American words, American slang, and American media references. What this means is, OFTEN words you think are spellt wrong (like color vs colour, or traveling vs travelling, are in fact NOT spelt wrong, because I use Scottish spellings) and often when I hear an American word, I spell it phonetically because I do not know the correct American spelling. Likewise we Scottish do not have words like my or your, and so say me and you, in places where Americans would say my and your. I also use Scottish word meanings, not American word meanings, for example Unicorn means a blood thirsty flesheating shapeshifting sea creature that comes on land and pretends to be a wounded horse to lure in humans to eat, it can only be captured by a virgin. But when I say Unicorn, a word I frequently use, because I write Unicorn folkloric short stories... I find that most Americans connect Unicorns to children's cartoons, gay pride, or swinging sex lives... I struggle to understand who in their right mind thought the most bloodthirsty monster of Scotland folklore was good fodder for children's cartoons or "sex positive" mascots, me thinks Americans need to brush up on the lore of Unicorns using their horns as sword to stabbed people's eyes out, while gallopping through swamps with rows of bloody Human heads hanging from their backs via braids made of Human entrails... really, why did Americans thinks a monster like a Unicorn was fit for children's cartoons or sex positivity? Americans is weird. All this to say... speech to text software, struggles badly with my thick Shetland accent, my slurred Autism speech impediment, and causes additional misspellings and typos because it can not figure out what words I am trying to say. And while I could take the time time to run all of it through a spell checker, that does require better hand mobility then I have, to copy the text from one program to the next and manually click each word, with finger mobility that I simply do not have, but also, most of my time is spent in trying to relearn to walk, and if you are local, you've probably seen this as I'm a stubborn bitch who refused to accept the doctor disnosis that I will never walk again, so, I walk around the block every day pushing my wheelchair, refusing to sit in my wheelchair, and... ...it's taking me 13 years to do it, but, I'm not actually able to stand up and make it all the way around the block now, and my focus on trying to relearn to walk is far more important to me, then catering to your pampered arse by fixing spelling errors, when there are far bigger problems to worry about in life, the spelling errors made by a quadriplegic who is typing this with her only two functioning fingers. Also, in recent years, I've watched the internet devolve into a mindless clusterfuck of ChatGPT written everything. Everyone sounds the same online these days, because no writes their own work anymore. Every website out there has become a carbon copy of each other, because they are all be written by ChatGPT now. I think ChatGPT makes a funny thing to chat with in your spare time, so you can laugh at the hilarity of how inaccurate it's responses are... but I am horrified that people are using AI for serious writing, writing they publish and try to pass off as their own. We live in a society where people people are forgetting how write. Heck I can read and write cursive, calligraphy, italic, short hand, and editor's marks, also edit my books by hand diagraming every sentence, and that... start walking around your neighbourhood and ask anyone under 30 if they sentence diagraming IS, let alone how to do it. So yes, I CAN spell check, and no I don't, for anything but my novels and short story collections, I spell check when it matters... and this is a website, not a printed book... but also, I am just getting so damn fucking fed up with endless AI writing online, so, no, I'm not going to fix errors and typos on my website, and you can bitch about that all you want (yes, I do get your messages, I just don't answer anyone in private) but, honey, maybe instead of bitching over my spelling errors, be thankful is still at least one website on the internet that still being written by a Human now in 2026 when ChatGPT writes over 70% of all posts online. |

Yes, this website (founded in 1996) is old enough to have WebRings on it, and they are still in use.
Don't know what a WebRing is?
They were how we webmasters used to get traffic to our websites before the invention of search engines (aka before Jeeves, DogPile, Yahoo. Google, Bing, or the rest existed). In their simplest form a WebRing is an html code that rotates link displays. In their more advanced form they are java scripts that give random results. Each ring had three active links titled "Previous", "Random", and "Next", clicking any of the 3 links would take you to the next website in the ring.
Web Rings are the REASON the internet was called "the world wide web". To use them, each webmaster submitted their site to the ring, a single code held 100 websites, and codes could be stacked to hold 100 code sets (or 10,000 links to 10,000 websites), each web master in the list, would then place the code in the footer of their website.
This created the SPIDER WEB that was the literal WEB OF LINKS that gave the internet it's name "World Wide Web" and is WHY websites are CALLED "web sites". And technically, your site is not a WEB site unless it is connected to a WEBRing, likewise you technically are not a WEBMaster if you do not build WEBrings links for you WEBsite to connect to the WEB.
Unfortunately, most knowledge of WebRings, and whi sites were called WEBsites and sites on the WEB were called the World Wide Web, vanished from the internet in 2014 when the official WebRing.org company who managed 90%+ of the internet's WebRings went out of business after the infamous Google Panda 2013 bot attack that delisted ALL websites from the Google Index if they contained a WebRing of links to other websites in it's footer.
And while most sites abandoned the use of WebRing Codes on their sites, Space Dock 13 did not. The Space Dock 13 WebRing remains active, now 28 years after it's creation. Over the decades however, one by one all the other websites in the ring have gone off line, and as they did, I replaced the url with a link to a page of my own website (as this is a java code - it updated on every website without the others needing to change anything). Today in 2026, eelkat.com is the last remaining website in the ring, and now all 10k links go only to pages on eelkat.com, no longer sending you to other websites.

Do you have information about my son's murder and need the FBI contact information:
If you have any information about my son’s murderer, please call FBI Agent Andy Drewer at 207–774–9322
If anyone contacts you saying 146 Portland Ave, Old Orchard Beach, is for sale, know that they are lying to you... it is my land, and it has been in my family since 1531... and the ONLY person whom has EVER gone around saying it is for sale, is a woman who the FBI believes to be the same woman who murdered my son.
My son is buried here, and the FBI believes she is trying to buy my land in order to destroy his grave and destroy evidence of his murder.
Since my son's murder November 14, 2013, every year dozens of real estate agent show up all with a story of a female developer who is offering them MILLIONS of dollars for my lot of land that is only 1/4 of an acre and is not big enough to develop.
When shown police sketches of my son's murderer, the real estate agents say "Yes, that's the woman who hired me to buy 146 Portland Ave, Old Orchard Beach, Maine", but then the woman disappears and the real estate agents never hear from her again... all contact information she gave them turns out to be fake.
The woman who murdered my son, is DESPERATELY trying to buy 146 Portland Ave, Old Orchard Beach, Maine... this is the woman to watch out for... and this is what she did:
Looking to find out more about my son's murder, that information is on these pages:
Answering the questions:
Can you give me links to the news reports of your son's murder?
and
Why can't I find any news reports about this?
Maine has well over a thousand murder cases that have never been in the news.
I found this out after my son was murdered November 2013, and a year later I found out it had never been in the news, even though I was hounded for weeks by news people. I went to each of the over a dozen TV stations and newspapers whom had showed up at the hospital and asked why they had never published any report after all the trouble they had gone through to (in some cases illegally) het into the hospital to interview me.
in every case they said some version of "well, it just wasn't news worthy, there was nothing we could use to get views". Really? These were big news stations, channel 13, 6, 8, Portland Press Herald, Bangor Daily...
What exactly was it they claimed was "not news worthy"?
I'll tell you.
On November 14, 2013, my son was murdered. At Southern Maine Community College in the parking lot of The Buglight Art Studio beside the Spring Point Lighthouse.
I was 8 months pregnant, leaving my college classroom, and just getting into my car, when 3 strangers, a man and two women, armed with golf clubs leapt out from behind my car screaming "kill or be killed, kill the transvestite freaks, kill them all before they kill us! look at that thing! That is Ken's son, look at how it's dressed! kill the transvestite freaks! kill or be killed"... while the bald man and the red haired woman chanted this over and over, the blonde woman, lunged with the golf club.
She severed my spine, I am now a quadriplegic, and been paralyzed arms and legs, and in a wheelchair for 13 years now. She broke my hips, my knees, my legs, ruptured most of my discs, and shattered three of my vertebrae so bad that the shards of bone acted like glass and embedded themselves into my spinal column nerve bundle.
The attack also triggered labour.
My son was born in that parking lot, and he lived only a couple of minutes, before the deranged blonde woman, beat his head in and smashed his brains out, with the same golfclub she had just used to sever my spine and leave me crippled for the rest of my life.
Realizing that I was not transgender, and they'd just murdered a baby, the man grabbed the 2 women and forcibly dragged them away to a 4 door white pickup truck, and they left me there to die.
The FBI told me later, that a few weeks before this attack, and transwoman, had murdered a cis woman, in a parking lot, abou 20 miles away from where I was attacked. The FBI, believes that my attackers, had somehow found out I wrote transgender fiction, connecting my real name to my penname, (my father's name is in fact "Ken", and I do have a brother) and believed that I wrote transgender fiction, because I was myself transgender, even though I'm not transgender. The FBI, believes the attackers, thought I was my brother, pretending to be a woman.
The FBI investigation, into my son's murder, has dragged on for 13 years, and still now in 2026, continues on, with the FBI, still not having yet identified my attackers, and only guessing at what their motive was.
Oh yeah, and I've been quadriplegic for 13 years.
oh yeah one more thing, same trio, they also found out where i lived in Old Orchard Beach and drove a backhoe over my house as well.

146 Portland Ave Old Orchard Beach, Maine... July 4, 2013 vs August 8, 2013 |
I have been homeless and quadriplegic for 13 years, and right now it's just a few weeks away from both my son's 14th birthday and the 14th anniversary of the day he was murdered, both of which happened the same day.
Explain to me what about any of that is "not newsworthy"?
I did find out WHY it was deemed not newsworthy. "it would negatively impact tourism" was their reason. The College at Fort Prebble is a tourist destination. The lighthouse at the college is a tourist destination. My house on Portland ave is situated on the primary road to the beach that is a tourist destination.
The news reporters explained to me that, they risked losing their jobs if they publicised "negative news" occurring in these sorts of tourist destination spots.
My son's murder wasn't in the news, because it might cause tourists to stop visiting that lighthouse. That was the reason the reporters gave me.
How often are there things not being reported on just so businesses don't lose tourist money?
How often does this happen? A lot, I've since found out. In trying to find other mothers of murdered children to interact with... I found five others JUST in Old Orchard Beach, whom the murders were not in the news, and all of them happened after my son's murder. I found 2 such mothers in Scarbourogh, their children's murders not in the news. I found over a dozen more in the Bar Harbore area, also all not in the news.
It's a very disturbing trend here in Maine, one that I never would have found out about had my own son not been murdered.
One thing's very clear: in Maine you can get away with murdering a child, if you do it in a big tourist location, because news stations REFUSE to report any crime occurring in tourist locations.
Fuck torists.
I don't give a shit about your precious tourist money.
My son was murdered and I want his killer found... and I am VERY displeased with the deplorable way news stations try to bury child murders in Maine, just to appease tourist funded businesses.
And if you're one of those lunatic jackass bullshitting alien abduction UFO freaks, looking for haunted cars, Stephen King, cryptids, or EBEs, first off, you can go fuck yourselves. I am so damned sick of you conspiracy brained motherfuckers harassing my family and turning my son's murder case into a circus of you psycho deranged bullshit. Here's some pages for you:
