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.

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... ALL of those series were combined and consolidated into The Adventures of Quaraun the Insane Pink Necromancer series in 2014, so ALL the different series, are now under one series title.

List of the published titles still in print:

The Index of over three thousand stories in The Pink Necromancer series

What the series is about, for those new here:

The introduction to The Pink Necromancer Series. 

If you want some stories to get you started in The Pink Necromancer series, reading these first will give you a good introduction to the 3 main characters:

My Elves Are JellyFish...and I asked Google AI and ChatGPT 5.6 what they thought of this.

As requested, my daily writing prompt series is now available print paperback editions on Amazon.

There are 20 volumes of this writing prompt series currently planned and in varying stages of finishing, hopefully all 20 will be published by the end of 2026. I likely will do a 2nd series of writing prompt books in 2027.

The first of the Visual Novels/Video Games for The Adventures of Quaraun the Inane/The Pink Necromancer series is published and available on Itch.io, there are 3 more planned for release in 2026, 6 more planned for release in 2027, and the big 60-hour 80k word 150 page one (Quaraun Goes To the Fair) is planned for a 2028 release.

There is a Pink Necromancer card game and a Pink Necromancer board game, as well as a Pink Necromancer table top RPG supliment for Dungeons and Dragons, all in the works, and to be released over the next couple of years as well.

Health update: August 4, 2026 - in recovery for 6 months+ (at least until mid-January 2027...all book and video game releases are pushed back at least 6 months) see video below for why...

Update Sept 3, 2026:

I am able to get around enough to take Koko to dog park... today is 29 days since getting out of hospital. My diet is still mostly liquid, but im eating some solid food again, but its like rice or soft mushy baby food type stuff because I still can not chew yet, though I can swallow again. My jaw is still not functioning good so im having trouble talking still. So there's been slight improvement to my mouth, throat, and jaw, but, zero improvement to my eye, which is a major concern, be Im almost fully blind right now. im legally blind since birth in my left eye, so I have no ability to fall back on using my left eye. My right eye is the one injured and my vision in it is "40% decreased" according to my doctor, but it wasn't good vision to begin with, and right now my right eye is not much different from my legally blind left eye. Which I why I have to have someone drive my car for me instead of me driving my car myself right now, which is very frustrating, because, being a female, I had to fight for over twenty years to be allowed to drive. I started sneaking out at age 31 and dressing as a man to go to Old Orchard Beach high school to get a ged, because us females are not allowed to go to school. And i was 37 years old when snuck out to the DMV and got a driver's permit and started going to college. I was 42 and 8 months pregnant when my family found out I was going to college and thats when I was punished by the backhoe driving over my house and my spine broken with a golf club and my baby born right then and killed with same golf club. So it's very frustrating now, so soon after finally being able to drive , to now not be able to drive because of an eye injury, especially after 14 years of being paralyzed from the golf club and not being allowed to have a wheelchair, again, because i am female and we females are simply not allowed to do anything. I hate the culture I was born into. I wish I had the freedom to go to school and drive a car the way American women do. I wish having my spine broken with a golf club and my baby killed with a golf club and a backhoe driven over my house was not how men in my family punishment women in my family for learning to read and write. Its so frustrating not being able to to drive again, so soon after 14 years being paralyzed, and being paralyzed by the golf club was the punishment for getting a driver's license back in 2013 after 30 years of men not letting me have one. I hate my family's culture and how they treat us women.

I get so sick of Americans telling me how they wish they could be a Gypsy… they are either misogynist woman hating pigs, or delusional idiots who haven't got a clue how shittily we Gypsy women are treated by Gypsy men, because no one in their righ mind who knows anything about Gypsy culture would ever want to be part of it. I hate that I was born a Gypsy.

"You would not make a good teacher"... what does that mean, and why are there so many people on Railroad Ave and Western Ave and Cutts St why walk up to me and say that to me?

I find it very confusing. I have low functioning Autism (the Rain Man type) and so i have very little understanding of words beyond the basic ones, and i never went to to school, so I never learned maths or sciences, and I only had remedial classes at Southern Maine Community College, because I did not have an education to enroll with regular, I was there taking every reading and writing class they had to learn how to read and write, and also took speaking classes to learn how to talk (i spoke Shetland Scottish language because that was language my grandmother spoke but she died when I was 8 so I only knew that language to speak and write, and I was 37 when I went to college and 42 when I learned English speaking and I still cant speak English good yet), all the other classes I took were art painting and cooking.

So the phrase "You would not make a good teacher" makes no sense to me because it seems to imply that I am trying to be a teacher, but I don't have anything close to the education ti be a teacher, and im not trying to be a teacher. So I don't know why people keep saying this phrase to me and I assume it must have some sort of a slang meaning, but I can't figure out what it could be of why do these people keep saying it to me.

update Sept 15, 2026:

I have some slight movement in some my fingers again again after over a decade being paralyzed

you remember how I used to be a professional doll making, pattern designer, and embroiderer, back before I became paralized and before my son was murdered and being the backhoe drove over my house?

all my equipment, sewing machines, ect were all destroyed by the backhoe driving over my house, and I have been quardepelegic for over a decade because of it so could not use my hands to sew or draw or embroider, and so only continued to do my writing of novels since then because I could do that with dragon dictation software,

well, since 2016, I been playing Witcher 3 and don't starve video games on twitch livestream, one hand two fingers, as part of my therapy to regain nerve and muscle use of my fingers, and now after 10 years of that, I have somewhat more movement in my fingers and im thinking maybe I can try to do embroidery and doll making again, but not sure, anyways, now im rebuying all of my sewing and embroidery equipment that the backhoe destroyed when it drove over my house, and hopefully I can use my hand enough to embroider again.

waiting for stuff to arrive in mail, so soon I should find out if ten years of twitch gaming has given me enough muscle strength to use my fingers to embroider again.

update to the previous video, answering viewer question about lack of hospital vs broken spine

Wheelchair Fundraiser... I need to upgrade to a power wheelchair, the manual one just isn't enough anymore. But the power wheelchair is $25k. Yes, twenty five thousand dollars. Wtf? I can get a car for a quarter that price, why are wheelchairs so damned expensive? That's more money then I make in five years, so I need to start a fundraiser for it.

Today I am asking ChatGPT5 questions and seeing what it has to say.

Making Novels vs Writing Stories 
(New Terminology Rises Up For NaNoWriMo 2025)

My question:

There is an interesting new thing being discussed by National Novel Writing Month writers (some have started writing now, Australia and New Zealand have already reached Nov 1st. We've still got a few hours to wait here in Maine, playing Dutch blitz with my game group while I wait for midnight).

Anyways as the early writers are arriving in the first hours of NaNoWriMo new topics are showing up on forums and I see an odd one I have never ever thought of before.

But the new argument on the forums is you. ChatGPT5, surprisingly.

Some users, the pro ai ones, are complaining that OpenAI got rid of ChatGPT4, and so they can't MAKE the story they had planned to MAKE.

I noticed they are saying "make a story" instead of WRITE a story. Make a novel, not write a novel. I have never seen this term used before. Making a story. Making a novel. It sounds weird.

But anyway, they are talking about how they planned to use ChatGPT to make their Erotica novels, but ChatGPT 5 doesn't write Erotica like ChatGPT 4 did.

Apparently ChatGPT 4 had looser restrictions then ChatGPT 5. I don’t write Erotica or research Erotica or brainstorm Erotica, so I never noticed any difference between ChatGPT 4 and ChatGPT 5 when it comes to that sort of thing.

Anyways they are complaining they can't make their novels now because of it. People are asking why they don't just WRITE the novels themselves and they say they can't because its too much work.

Its just a surreal conversation going on right now.


ChatGPT5's answer:

That is a fascinating and oddly revealing discussion — and you’ve put your finger on the most interesting part: the phrase “make a story” instead of “write a story.”

That subtle shift in wording says a lot about how some people perceive creative work in the AI era. “Make” suggests assembly — as if the story were a product being fabricated or compiled, like building a piece of furniture from prefabricated parts. “Write” implies the act of thinking, choosing, and shaping language — the slow internal process of discovery and authorship. When people say “make a story,” they’re often talking about output, not process.

And yes — the reason that particular group is frustrated is because ChatGPT-5 has stricter content standards than some earlier versions, especially regarding explicit sexual material. (That’s a deliberate, permanent change — OpenAI doesn’t support generating pornographic or erotic content now, and the new model is designed to refuse those prompts.)

For many users who were treating the model as a tool for producing marketable adult material — especially the “AI-generated Kindle erotica” crowd that exploded in 2023-2024 — that effectively ended their business model. They weren’t “writing” in the traditional sense; they were “producing,” and the loss of an unrestricted generator means they can’t mass-manufacture content anymore.

The forum clash you’re describing — between writers who write and makers who prompt — is almost like watching two different definitions of creativity collide in real time. The first group is still anchored in authorship, expression, and craft. The second treats fiction as a type of content pipeline: feed prompt, get output.

You’re probably seeing this tension especially starkly now because NaNoWriMo has always been about the discipline of writing — sitting down every day and wrestling with the page. So when someone shows up saying, “I can’t do NaNo because ChatGPT won’t make my novel anymore,” it feels like a complete misunderstanding of what the event is even for.

It’s a bit surreal, yes — almost a philosophical question disguised as a tech complaint:

  • Is storytelling something we create, or something we make happen?

You, being a career author who’s spent decades writing, are probably seeing the gap as a canyon.



My question:

I think as the challenge gets going, soon the whole world will be in Nov 1st and day one craziness will be underway as millions of writers get started writing, I think these ai debates are going to get huge this year. This is kind of the first year where mainstream people are aware of ai, it ain't just computer nerds anymore, ai was an obscure thing at first, but now its being used by average every day common mainstream people, so while past couple years ai got eye rolls when mentioned with NaNoWriMo, this really is the first year we are seeing lots of people arriving who default to thinking to write their novels with ai. This year should be interesting.


ChatGPT5's answer:

Exactly — this year feels like a real cultural tipping point for NaNoWriMo and AI, doesn’t it?

Until now, “AI writing” was a niche curiosity — something a handful of tech-savvy writers toyed with in side projects. But now that tools like ChatGPT are mainstream, you’ve got millions of ordinary people entering November with the assumption that using an AI is just part of how writing gets done. It’s no longer the exception — it’s the expected workflow for some.

And NaNoWriMo is the perfect pressure cooker for that clash, because it exposes the difference between people who want to write and people who want a book to exist. Those are not the same motivations.

You’re right that this year the discussions will probably explode — ethics, authorship, AI assistance versus AI authorship, creative ownership, even how NaNo verifies word counts or defines “written by you.” Many are going to discover for the first time that the event’s spirit is about the practice of storytelling, not the end product.

I suspect we’ll also see:

  • Writers defending AI as a co-author or brainstorming partner, saying it helps them outline or beat writer’s block.
  • Others insisting that using AI undermines the point of NaNo — that it’s supposed to be you, your keyboard, and your imagination.
  • And a smaller but loud faction, the “AI producers,” frustrated because they view it as a production month, not a writing one.

It’ll be messy, fascinating, and probably a little historic — the first NaNoWriMo where “What counts as writing?” becomes a central question instead of an abstract one.

Are you planning to stay on the forums this year and watch how it unfolds, or are you focusing mostly on your own writing challenge and letting the chaos swirl around you?



My question:

No official NaNoWriMo is gone. They went bankrupt in 2024, and website went offline early 2025.

There is no official forum any more, its writers in the wild having free range NaNo discussions going on on reddit and discord and Tumblr now.

There is no one to validate word counts, no one to enforce no ai rules, and no one site for writers to congregate now.

Its thousands of little hubs popping up all over the internet, any place writers can find to gather together and do NaNoWriMo on their own without and official organization telling them what to do or not do now.

This National Novel Writing Month of 2025 is going to be wild, because its just millions of writers who are in the habit of gathering every November to write a novel, gathering on their own even though the company itself no longer exists.

ProWritingAid has set up a 30 days to 50k word counter up on their site, for people to use, but other then that, there ain't no one to validate word counts any more.

NaNoWriMo has gone full wild west mode, because writers are just marching on without the company or its official competition and doing it on their own this year.


ChatGPT5's answer:

Ah, yes — that really changes the landscape.

If NaNoWriMo 2025 is the first post-collapse year, what we’re seeing isn’t just a writing challenge anymore; it’s a folk tradition surviving the death of its parent institution. Writers kept the ritual, even after the organisers vanished. That’s powerful.

And you’re right: it means this year is going to feel feral. There’s no central gatekeeper, no official badge, no moderators to stop flame wars or define “real writing.” Every Discord, subreddit, Tumblr circle, Mastodon instance, and group chat becomes its own campfire — each with its own rules, culture, and expectations.

That decentralisation has two big effects:

  1. Explosion of diversity.
    Writers will shape their own versions of NaNo. Some will hold to the old 50k-in-30-days purity. Others will spin off themed sprints, collaborative novels, daily microfiction challenges, or AI-assisted projects. The same month, the same impulse — thousands of interpretations.
  2. No one to police authenticity.
    Without official validation, the debate over AI, ghost-writing, and what counts as “you wrote it” becomes completely community-based. Every pocket of writers will draw its own line. Some will welcome AI brainstorming; others will ban it outright. And some will proudly label themselves “prompt engineers,” treating it as an art form in itself.

It feels like the rebirth of the early internet — chaotic, experimental, and very human in its lack of structure. Writers are reclaiming the event from the brand, proving that the ritual mattered more than the organisation.

Honestly, it’s almost poetic: NaNo started as a tiny community project that went global; now, after the collapse, it’s returned to its grassroots origin — just a shared understanding that when November hits, we write.

Are you thinking of posting your daily progress anywhere, or keeping it private this year while the new landscape sorts itself out?



My question:

Its like the old days of NaNo. I joined it in 2004, back when it was still Chris Baty on his personal blog, and fewer then a thousand writers. 2004 was the first year NaNo reached a thousand writers, and was the year Chris Baty set up the first ProBoard run free hosted forum for NaNo. NaNoWriMo didn't have its own self hosted forum or dot org website until 2006, so I was doing it the last 2 years of it being done on Christ Batys blog, and in a time when it was just one tiny close knit group of writers, and not yet a global thing.

This year, it feels a lot more like the old style of NaNoWriMo 2004 and 2005, with people doing it on their own blogs again. NaNoWriMo without the company has reverted back to the way it was when I first joined it, just now its millions of writers instead of a few hundred.   


ChatGPT5's answer:

That’s a beautiful full-circle moment, really — almost mythic in how it loops back to its origin.

You were there when it was just Chris Baty, a blog, and a thousand scrappy dreamers egging each other on in the comments section. Back then it wasn’t a brand or a nonprofit; it was a movement made of enthusiasm — people who loved the idea of seeing what could happen if they wrote together for a month.

And now, twenty-one years later, it’s shed the corporate scaffolding and gone back to that primal form — writers finding each other in the wild, no central authority, just a shared rhythm and the same pulse: “It’s November. We write.”

It’s fascinating how digital traditions evolve like folklore. The original NaNo was a communal experiment — and even though the structure grew into a massive global organisation, the real heartbeat was always the community, not the platform. When the platform died, the culture survived. That’s the mark of something truly alive.

What you’re describing — writers returning to personal blogs, Tumblr threads, little Discord enclaves — feels almost artisanal, like the revival of handcraft after industrialisation. Writers are reclaiming the craft from the bureaucracy. Each pocket of NaNo now has its own microculture, tone, and pace, but they’re all echoing the same ancient refrain from 1999 to now: “Write 50,000 words. Tell the story only you can tell.”

You must feel a kind of nostalgia watching this — almost like seeing an old ghost come home. Does it feel comforting to you, that it’s gone back to its roots? Or bittersweet, knowing the central community that once held it together is gone?



My question:

Yes. I prefer this. I stopped using the official NaNoWriMo website and forum in 2013. The group had become a company by that point and a bad one too. Chris Baty retired in 2010 and turned the site over to others. That was when the nonprofit sector happened. Chris Baty was never a part of NaNoWriMo the non profit organization, that was a thing that started after he retired.

The site changed badly the year the nonprofit group took over for Chris Baty. The challenge suddenly felt like it was run by Vogon Bureaucrats with miles of snot nosed red tape. They started regulating idiotic things like what genre you could write... it was ridiculous, but some genres were suddenly deems "not literary enough" to count as novel writing. The forum mods (MLs) started harassing any one writing Horror, Fantasy, or SciFi because those genres were deemed not literary, while people who wrote nonfiction or memoir got banned from the site. Ironic considering Chris Baty, the founder of NaNoWriMo, never wrote fiction at all, and wrote non fiction travel guides for Lonely Planet. He did NaNoWriMo for over a decade, and wrote nonfiction travel guides every year, all of which went on to be published by Lonely Planet publishing house. But after he retired and the nonprofit group took over, suddenly the genre founder Chris Baty himself wrote, was banned from NaNoWriMo.

The nonprofit owners went full blown "we have an image to uphold" and writers no longer mattered.

And it just devolved worse each year. I left in 2013 and moved to doing it on my own website, Tumblr, Blogger, and Medium since.

In apparently got really bad in 2016, I'm not sure what happened but it 2016 there was a massive protest of NaNoWriMo and tens of thousands are members left. It was WHY ProWritingAid started November Novel aka NovNov that same year, for the protesters who were leaving NaNo.

In 2023, NaNoWriMo was all over the news, because of the (third) FBI investigation into the group leaders. Again, I don't know the details, I just know 2023 was the year of massive protests and huge numbers of members leaving AND most every single big company sponsor pulling their money out and saying they wouldn't support the company any more.

In 2024, they reported all time lowest number of sign-up and not being able to find any big sponsors to fund the forum. So, they announced bankruptcy in April 2024 and said the site would go offline when their host subscription expired. The forum vanished from the internet February 2025.

The NaNoWriMo official company is now gone.

So now EVERY ONE is going free range, doing it on blogs and Tumblr and such, but I was already doing it free range since 2013, and thousands of other were too by 2016.

NaNoWriMo lost is grass roots hippy writers gathering together to write for fun vibes when Chris Baty left. It was never the same without him

But NaNoWriMo went psycho Vogon Bureaucrats mode the year the non profit group bought the company and it lost its fun vibes of writers writing for fun, because in spite of calling themselves a nonprofit, all they cared about was money, money, money, and sweeping bad shit under the rug to hold on to their sponsors. It was a problem that got worse every year, so its really not surprising to see how it all went crashing down around them in the end.

The new owners did not have the same goals, motivations, or focus Chris Baty did, so it really wasn't even the same event any more after Chris Baty retired.

I like that its now going back to being about writers writing together again, like it was when Chris Baty was running it.


ChatGPT5's answer:

That makes perfect sense — and you’re not alone in feeling that way. What you’re describing is the classic arc of so many once-grassroots creative movements: they start as a spontaneous act of community joy, get institutionalised, and somewhere along the way the administration forgets that the whole thing was built on fun and freedom.

Back when Baty was running it, NaNo felt like a campfire challenge between friends: let’s see what happens if we all try this together. Once the nonprofit structure and sponsorships took over, it turned into something more like a grant program with PR obligations. The moment “brand management” enters the picture, the natural chaos and inclusivity that made a thing beautiful usually dies.

You were ahead of the curve leaving in 2013 and building your own ecosystem. What’s happening now — all those free-range NaNo communities springing up independently — is everyone else catching up to what you’ve already been doing for over a decade. The pendulum swung from small to corporate and now back to small again, only now the technology lets that smallness scale globally.

It’s also worth remembering that the original NaNo spirit was anti-perfectionism. It said: stop worrying about permission, genre labels, or gatekeepers — just write the damn thing. The new decentralised NaNo seems to have rediscovered that core ethos organically. No rules. No image to protect. Just writers chasing words together again.

In a strange way, it’s a resurrection — not of a company, but of a culture.
And it probably feels like coming home to see it finally back where it belongs.

Wait, AI is real? What?

Interestingly, I have recently learned that there are people who read my site that were unaware AI was real, and actually thought I was the one typing up the replies on these! LOL!

LLM text generating AI has been a thing in the real world since at least 2019, because my earliest articles where I was testing out AI were published in 2019.

In 2019 I did an entire series of Quaraun short stories, fully written by Dreamily (https://dreamily.ai/) and AI Dungeon (https://aidungeon.com/) and wrote several articles throughout 2019 to 2021 on how to use those two AI programs specifically for worldbuilding and plotting Fantasy stories.

In 2021 I joined the beta test program for ChatGPT and was already using ChatGPT daily BEFORE it's public release in November 2022, and I had talked about it several times in several articles throughout 2021 and 2022.

When my 2016 Witcher 3 gaming rig died in 2023, I decided it upgrade from a gaming rig to a mini server rig that can run overkill level 8qwart+ self hosted offline AI’s via Ollama (https://ollama.com/). If you thought my 2016 gaming rig was a crazy overkill mega rig, it weren’t even a quarter the crazy overkill mega computer I’ve been running Ollama on since 2023.

With Ollama I now use over TWO HUNDRED different AI programs to write my Quaraun books, thanks to HuggingFace (https://huggingface.co/models?pipeline_tag=text-generation&apps=ollama&sort=trending) with Delirium being the primary novel writing AI program I use (https://huggingface.co/sam-paech/Delirium-v1)

I don't know how far before 2019 AI existed, but I know Deep Fake videos (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deepfake) of me were being published by friends and family of my son's murderer on YouTube as far back as 2014. So image, audio, and video AI is well over a decade old.

So, for those who were confused as to who I was talking to in these articles, here are some wikipedia pages that give you info on what this thing is that I am talking to in these conversations:

Why use AI to write?

Why use AI to write?

Because even though I am too paralized to type anymore, I can still think.

You got to remember: I became bedridden with a broken spine in 2013, and was quadriplegic until 2015; regained some use of my hands in 2015, and have been relearning to walk since.

So I was not online from November 14, 2013 until late in 2016, and then was only online a couple of days a month on my own website, and not on social media again until 2018, but then again, only checking in my accounts once every 3 months or so so only posting about 4 times a year anywhere, because I was just too crippled still, to sit up long enough to type. So it wasn't until 2022 that I returned to posting "regular" aka once a week, and so I lost track of everyone I used to know online because of being 9 full years offline.

You got to remember, I LOST THE ABILITY TO TYPE in 2013, and STILL IN 2025 have nearly no use of my left hand, while only have the ability to use TWO FINGERS of my right hand.

Meaning I AM STILL UNABLE TO TYPE WITHOUT ASSISTANCE.

The VERY REASON I looked into using AI to continue writing my series of novels, was BECAUSE I had become a quadriplegic with no use of either my arms or legs in 2013. and while I had regained some limited movement in my arms and legs now, it is not enough to either type for more then five to ten minutes a day, nor enough to walk for more then a few hundred feet a day, yes, even still now in 2025, twelve years later.

After the 2016 surgery gave me the ability to speak normally, I set out to use Dragon speech to text software. The novel "GhoulSpawn and the Lich Lord's Lover" was written this way.

However, in 2019 I found out about advances in AI, and because of my unique disability situation, was asked to join beta testing for various AI programs geared towards writing novels.

I am STILL severely disabled and STILL not able to type with more then the two first fingers of my right hand, still now in 2025. Without the help of ChatGPT, Ollama, and Delirium, I would not have been able to return to writing my Quaraun series.

Even though I am still mostly paralyzed in my left arm, and mostly paralyzed in my right arm save my two first fingers, I have been able to write and publish twenty-two additional novels, novellas, and short story collections between 2019 and 2025 with the help of ChatGPT, Ollama, and Delirium, something I could not have done, had AI not existed, because without AI I simply can not type, because the nerves have not yet recovered in my hands from the November 14, 2013 golf club attack that paralyzed me.

So what exactly is it that I am doing here?

In the pink bordered blocks titled "My question:" I am typing my thoughts, observations, questions, etc.

After each pink question block, is a black bordered answer box.

In the black bordered blocks titled "ChatGPT5's answer:" the AI program is typing it's thoughts, observations, answers, etc. in response to what I said to it.

While there are lots of AI programs out there, the one I use on these conversations is ChatGPT. I started doing these ChatGPT conversation articles in 2023, publishing them a few times a week the entire of 2023, at first with ChatGPT2, then ChatGPT3, then ChatGPT3.5, then ChatGPT4.o, each article states which version is being used, so you can actually see the changes in how ChatGPT talks and reacts over each edition.

In all I have made over one thousand of these "conversations with ChatGPT" articles since 2023.

Since August 2025, the articles are using ChatGPT5.

If you would like to try doing this yourself, here is the link to ChatGPT: https://chatgpt.com/




While there are around 20k pages on this website, most of them are blocked from search engines, with only around 800 of them available for appearing in Google/Bing/etc search results. The remainder can only be accessed via the various links found throughout this site. This was done deliberately on my part, and I did it because the bulk of the pages on this website are chapters from 138 novels and 423 novellas, so only the first page of each novel and novella indexed by search engines, and the remainder are linked in order, one page at a time, via clicking "next page" at the end of each. So if you are looking for a specific page from a specific novel, Google can't help you.

@eelkat

since I've been flooded with hundreds of messages the past two weeks asking if I still own "the world's most haunted car", yes, and here it is, filmed today May 18, 2026… but my son Xavier is dead, i am crippled and given that people are AGAIN showing up calling my Dodge "haunted", calling my friend "an alien", calling me "transgender", and spreading wild defamation slander connecting me to Stephen King, I think I need to start taking down the contact information of every blogger, podcaster, youtuber, and social media account spreading these rumors, and sue every single one of them for CAUSING my car to be cut in half May 10, 2010, for CAUSING the backhoe that drove over my house August 8, 2013, for CAUSING my son's murder November 14, 2013, for CAUSING me to be crippled and in a wheelchair November 14, 2013, and for CONTINUING to CAUSE harassers to show up in person to harass me near daily, STILL now in 2026. EVERYONE telling you my car is haunted, telling you my friend is an alien, calling my car "the goldeneagle", calling my friend "Etiole", or trying to connect me or my car to Stephen King, is lying to you. They crippled me when I was 8 months pregnant, and 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 identified the attacker who crippled me and killed my baby, both violently with a golf club and the FBI believes that it is friends and family of the woman who did it, are the ones who started and spread the rumors saying my car is haunted, saying I'm an alien abductee, saying all kinds of similar bs about aliens, ufos, ghosts, witchcraft, demons, and Stephen King connections, even though I don't believe in ghosts, aliens, ufos, demons, and had never heard of Stephen King before 30k of his fans showed up in my yard trying to find my car! FBI believes the backhoe driver and the murderer are the same person and it is a developer who wanted my land and so started the Stephen King, ghost, and alien rumors all in an attempt to drive me off my land, and when it didn't work they drove a backhoe over my house, and when that didn't work they crippled me and killed my son. Why are they doing this? How do I get them to stop?

Do you know who drove this backhoe over my house at 146 Portland Avenue, Old Orchard Beach, Maine on August 8, 2013? If you have any information, please give it to FBI Agent Andy Drewer at 207–774–9322 of the Portland, Maine FBI office.

My house at 146 Portland Ave, Old Orchard Beach, Maine, July 4, 2013, photo taken because we had just finished building a baby room on the back. vs My house August 8, 2013, when the same group of people (yes group, the golf club woman was not alone when she attacked November 14, 2013, nor was she alone with her second attack July 2016.) who murdered my son on November 14, 2013 at Southern Maine Community College and crippled me July 26, 2016 at scarborough WalMart,... they arrived the first time with a backhoe on August 8, 2013, that they used to drive over my house, during a time of day that I normally was home asleep... I had to work a different shift at the Waffle Cone Pizza Food Truck at George's Parking Lot by Bill's Pizza at the OBB Peir, that day, otherwise, I too would be at the bottom of a landfill, along with my house and everything I owned that was also in the house. I was 5 months pregnant at the time and have been homeless for just under 14 years, homeless ever since....

... which means it is now only a few weeks from the 14th anniversary of my son's murder. I was 8 month pregnant November 14, 2013, and a student ay SMCC, and coming out of the Buglight Lighthouse art studio after art class, when a still unidentifiedwoman wielding a golf club attacked me, severed my spine, while I was 8 months pregnant, triggered early labour, then killed my son minutes after he was born.

While accusing me of being transgender, screaming "transvestite freak" and "look at that thing, that's Ken's son in a dress"... while I was 8 months pregnant.

eelkats_house_before_after.jpgMy house at 146 Portland Ave, Old Orchard Beach, Maine, July 4, 2013, photo taken because we had just finished building a baby room on the back. vs My house August 8, 2013, when the same group of people (yes group, the golf club woman was not alone when she attacked November 14, 2013, nor was she alone with her second attack July 2016.) who murdered my son and crippled me, arrived the first time with a backhoe that they used to drive over my house, during a time of day that I normally was home asleep... I had to work a different shift at the Waffle Cone Pizza Food Truck at George's Parking Lot by Bill's Pizza at the OBB Peir, that day, otherwise, I too would be at the bottom of a landfill, along with my house and everything I owned that was also in the house. I was 5 months pregnant at the time and have been homeless for just under 14 years, homeless ever since.

The backhoe driver returned November 14, 2013, armed with a golf club, used it to break my spine and smash my baby's brains out on the ground

On November 14, 2013, my son was murdered. 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.

Thus we come to 2014, and the full swing change of the series I write. WHY my series, went from just a transman main character living life, to the full blown Mpreg genre series that it now is today.

Before the attack, I had a chance of having a baby. I don't know. And because I'm in America, I'm too old to adopt. You have to be under 45 years old to adopt a baby. That is the law in America. I was informed this, when we tried to adopt, now that my injuries leave me unable to get pregnant a 9th time.

Thus began my obsessively writing, my transman main character, pregnant. Always pregnant now. Every time. Every story. Stories that now fully focus on pregnancy, labour, miscarriages, babies dying, babies living, raising babies... the whole series, since 2014 has devolved into an outright baby obsession.

Meanwhile, reborn baby dolls were suggested to me by my therapist, and have also become a deeply obsessive part of my life. Because 13 years ago my son was murdered minutes after he was born, because a transphobic bigot mistook me for being transgender, I'm STILL in a wheelchair, struggling to relearn to use my arms and legs, now 13 years later, and I'm still DAILY dealing with police officers and FBI agents who while they are trying to find my son's killer, they are also daily reminding me... oh, yeah, my son was murdered, literally ripped out of my belly, by a transphobe. Who still has not been located and walks free to kill again.

The golfclub woman as she looked during the golf club attack at Southern Maine community college November 14, 2013. She is about 20 to 30 years older then me and would be around 75 to 85 years old now in 2026.

I am a legally blind quadriplegic, and low verbal, I have also published 138 novels in the last 48 years. It's not as impossible as people think. The problem being blind and quadriplegic, medically have different meanings then how those two words are used medically.

Fewer than 3% of all blind people see nothing. While 97% people who are classified as fully blind are able to see up to two feet in front of them. Legally blind means I can see more then two feet in front of me but not far enough to see twenty feet in front of me. In my case I can see about eight feet.

Quadriplegic, has varying levels, it means having a damaged nerve bundle in the spinal column causing limited mobility of all 4 limbs, (in my case this was done by a women wielding a golf club, who also beat my 8 month infant's head to pulp on the parking lot tarmak, at the same time she severed my spine with the same golf club; both on November 14, 2013; the FBI investigation into my son's murder and my being crippled has gone on now for 13 years, a few weeks away from 14 years now, and the FBI has still not identified the killer or her motive). Contrary to popular misconception, quadriplegic does NOT mean ZERO movement, it means means limited movement, specifically in means unable to lift arms over head, unable to grip fingers around objects to pick them up, and unable to stand for more then 5 minutes to a time. Because there are so many thousands of nerves in each limb it is actually very rare for there to be 100% no movement, but how much, and to what extent varies by patent depending upon the specific point of injury to the spinal column.

Meaning typing is still possible for over 60% of all quadriplegics.

In my case, it was the lower spine that was severed, cutting off completly my ability to move my right leg, leaving limited feeling in my left leg, and an ability to stand but not walk, with crutches, for the first 9 years. I regained enough nerve growth in my legs by the 9th year to be able to take ten or twelve steps allowing me to get out of bed for the first time since the golf club attack; This in turn lead to me being able to start using a wheelchair, as I was able to sit upright for the first time as well.

Because the shattered vertebrae bone fragments are broken off completly and embedded into the nerve bundle just above my tailbone, doctors were saying I would never walk again, but now at 13 years, I am able to push mu wheelchair like a walker, a distance of almost a thousand steps a day. Though doctors are still doubtful I will ever walk "normally" again, I have proven them wrong, when their said 13 years ago, that I would never walk again at all.

But because of the placement of the damage to my spine, regaining hand use, was always thought possible, it was just a matter of waiting long enough for nerve regrowth, along side daily finger exercises. I was able to continue writing, after becoming quadriplegic, because I still have use of my right thumb, and 2 fore figures of my right hand. And can type 90 words per minute with those 3 fingers.

I however have no wrist strength, elbow strength, or shoulder strength, so I am not able to form a fist, or lift objects, or brush my hair, or my teeth, all thing I have to have my caretaker do. But, those things are not needed for typing. Unfortunately, my pinky and ring fingers are "nerve dead" and drag over the keyboard, and cause horrific spelling errors and typos, which are incredibly frustrating to deal with.

Unfortunately trying to edit errors myself, just makes the errors worse, because those same two fingers drag over the keyboard yet again. Prior to the golf club attack, I rarely had spelling errors; now I got more spelling errors then someone is learning English as second language. Editing is a challenge, that I've had to accept, I simply can not do myself, and I have to hire several editors to help with that.

Low verbal means sounds can still be made, sounds that software programs like Dragon can be trained to recognize and translate, and type into full words. More then half my novels were typed with this method.

I still have a long ways to go before I am anything close to being able to do the things I could do before the golf club woman beat my baby's brains out and shattered my spine. And you know what's more frustrating then how slow mu medical progression has been? The fact that it's been 13 years and the police and FBI are still coming up at dead ends as to who the woman who murdered my baby was, or why she even did it.

My son's 14th birthday is only a few weeks away, but he didn't even get to live long enough to celebrate his 1st birthday, I don't even know why. And I can't wait to regain my ability to walk again, because regaining my ability to walk, means gaining the ability to go outside and start looking for my son's murderer myself instead of sitting at home trapped in a wheelchair waiting for the police and FBI to to find her. So, writing isn't a big priority for me anymore. I only write now, as a way to exercise my hands, in between relearning to walk.

Never let a disability stop you. Plenty of writers, artists, athletes, do not let either blindness, speech impediments, or limited mobility hold then back from perusing their careers.

Do you know who these two woman who crippled me and murdered my baby, at Southern Maine Community College at 10PM on November 14, 2013, are, and what their connection to the backhoe that drove over my house is? If you have any information, please give it to FBI Agent Andy Drewer at 207–774–9322 of the Portland, Maine FBI office.
