Remember: This look is Temporary

When you have a forced deadline, no time for help, and barely enough time to do the necessary task you just have to take care of the basic needs.

While the appearance is definitely far from perfect it is at least functional for the time being.
In addition, though the Library is still currently offline when it does return to service it will not be connected to the member database. What does that mean? Well, you can try to log in all you like, but you will keep getting messages about how there is no such account. Unfortunately this is something we could no longer avoid due to the timeline given by our host to upgrade specific software or have the site disabled.

The good news is the software in question is now done for. The bad news is after 12 hours at the keyboard and 30 hours awake I am calling it a day. So have fun, enjoy poking around, just remember there's more to come in the next few months.

Haven will be Offline Tuesday, May 6 at 12:01 am PST

Due to unforeseeable and unrelated circumstances the planned maintainance will be pushed back 24 hours.

Monday will be just a minute old where the servers are located when the next round of upgrades begin. Due to the extensive amount of work planned during this round I can not predict when the site will be 100% online but don't expect it soon.

Updates will be posted to this blog as things become available to use again, and finally when upgrades have ceased.

The 'A Little Bit of Girl Time' Collection - Volume II

The 'A Little Bit of Girl Time' Short Story Collection was created with two purposes in mind: to provide quality transformation and transgender content and to act as a fundraiser for the [url=http://rachelshaven.com/]Rachel's Haven[/url] community. In the past two months twelve authors endeavored to create as many stories. Each story was edited by the publisher, a cover created, and compiled as an ebook for easy access anywhere someone might be. Each author gave their work freely so that all the proceeds from any sales would benefit [url=http://rachelshaven.com/]Rachel's Haven[/url].

Without further ado I present to you the very second volume of the A Little Bit of Girl Time collection, now selling at these fine retailers:



Come visit Rio during the vibrant and sexy Carnival Holiday! There is magic in the air and we have your ticket. Come down and see the sights, enjoy the music and even be part of the parade. You won't be the same after your visit to this exotic place.



All it Takes is One by Jinny Faewise

When a man seeks to avenge her own death, no matter how many bullets are fired, she needs only one to find it's mark.




The continued tale of Theseus, Prince of Athens, and his quest to save his countrymen from the Minotaur of Crete's Labyrinth.



She Stole My Heart by Chelsea Baker

One minute he's relaxing after work with a pint, the next he wakes to find his world turned upside down.



The Prom by Sara

A guy has to be careful when he asks a girl to the prom. He should never assume that a dress is to much for a girl to buy.




Davon's new life begins at the foot of her Mistress. How will her life change to suit the whims of her new owner?



The Bridal Photo Album by Bonnie Lea Blair

One cross dresser ventures to learn how it feels to be the bride-to-be.




A tale of Crossdressing and Gender Confusion.




Kim Calvin is a powerful man known for renting the bodies he owns to those down on their luck, so long as they can pay the bill each month. But what happens when a businessman samples his merchandise a bit too enthusiastically?



Love Lost, Love Found by Dani Colorado

It was an age of conflict. Scores of men left for war. Many never returned. Those that did were never the same.



A Piece of Good Will by Kaitlyn Autofeld

Chelsea returns from a shopping trip with a strange piece of costume jewelry capable of more than just looking cheap and tacky.




Deacon Vendris is a man fighting the ever evolving, yet always familiar battle to uphold the law. An ex-marine trained on Mars and stationed across known space he safeguarded the lives of his crew mates and helped defend our borders from the more hostile species we've encountered. Now he protects and defends the people of London from those who would do them harm.

A young woman is found brutally murdered in an alley, but none of her personal effects appear to be missing. But if it wasn't a mugging gone bad then why was she killed... and by whom?


And finally, the complete collection in a single volume:





A Little Bit of Girl Time: Volume II, Part I



A Little Bit of Girl Time: Volume II, Part II



A Little Bit of Girl Time: Volume II, Part III


Each individual story costs $2.99 due to our attempts to maximize commissions as most retailers cut the rate below $2.99 or above $9.99. The complete volume is available for $15.99 on Haven Bookworks and broken into three parts for $6.99 each on other retailers due to the same commission limitations. Regardless of retailing for a lower cost the Haven will see the most proceeds per sale if you buy on Haven Bookworks.

A great big thanks to all the authors who contributed! I'd also like to thank Jillisa for her help editing a few of the stories, Jinny for her graphical expertise and artwork, and Lyndee Mason for her genius work in assisting with the cover overlay!

Want to get a copy for a friend? Not a problem! Haven Bookworks offers Gift Certificates, and since tax isn't charged for downloadable products the price you see on the page is the price you pay.

Don't forget the proceeds from the sale of each of the above titles benefit Rachel's Haven, helping to keep this fine community online! Thanks again to all those who contributed, and I hope to work with you all as well as new faces in future volumes of the collection!

Host Disabled Haven over Software

Exactly what it says. Let me be clear this is not over content, but a specific bit of software in use. Already working to get the site back online but history says there's no telling when it will be back up. At this point it's on the service team on their end.
