Over 1400 pictures since December 8, 2009 - Sometimes there's photos of me, sometimes there's photos of things I like, things I make, and things I see. It's always something different, but whatever I can put up here once in a while.

 

I've racked up over 2.5 million views (stream, photos, and sets) - At this time, about 95% of my photostream is public. I like to think I've improved significantly, but I'm keeping the early pictures up to have a good laugh about them, and to show how far I'm coming along. We all had to start out somewhere, right? ^_-;

 

(Note: Anything not flagged restricted is for a 16 and up audience. Anything flagged restricted is, of course, for 18 and older. Thanks!) - I, of course, am well over 18. (Read on, friends...)

 

So, Who Is Julie Anne?

I am a cosplayer, a geek girl, a freelance self-taught webmaster, the go-to girl for when family and friends have issues with their computers, I've been known to collect movies and TV shows (VHS, DVDs, a few LaserDiscs), I've been into anime and manga for more than half my life...

 

I am a writer, an artist, a girl in search of a back story, my identity, the road to who I am. I am "29 and holding," I am transgendered, I seem to be at least six degrees apart from anyone else important in this world, but above all else, no matter what happens to me along the journey that I'm on -- I am what I am -- Nothing more, nothing less.

 

I've been making my way out of the closet I've been in for well over two decades. In fact, coming here to Flickr saved my life, at least in saving me from a life where I'd just be going through the motions of living, trying to conform to what others expect of me, trying to be someone I can no longer be. There are a few people here (and they know who they are ^_-;) that I have to thank profusely for letting me know that the door I thought was closed long ago could reopen, and I could resurrect my dreams, or create new ones.

 

And so, I am writing a new chapter in my life. I am making contact with others I'm meeting along my journey, I am finding friendship, acceptance, reassurance that I am not alone what what I'm coming to terms with. Change may be difficult to accept, or a challenge to deal with, but it is important to our lives, and it truly is the only constant in a world that sometimes doesn't make much sense at all. What matters most is how we react to change, and how we work to change the world around us for the benefit of everyone else who is in it.

 

Step by step, though it may seem imperceptible at times, I am making progress - I am making my way towards that small crack of light shining in through the door to the closet I've been in for so very long. I will find my way out of it, and step into the light.

 

My alter ego, my secret identity, my other half, the person I was born as, has also played a major role in bringing me into this world - Without them, I wouldn't be who I am today...

 

You are all welcome to join me in my journey to find out who I really am. It's time to start putting away the mask I've been hiding behind...

 

This is my time to shine....

 

The Ground Rules:

- First off, I like girls, regardless of how I present myself. (So technically, I guess that makes me a "trans-lesbian.") Sorry, guys - It's not you, it's me. ^_^;

 

- Unlike some others on here, I don't have issues with guys being admirers, faving my pics or adding me to the contact list (At least do me the courtesy of dropping me a line beforehand.), but I don't take kind to guys trying to hit on me. Please don't make me have to change this policy.

 

-------------------

Important update here. This will take effect from April 18, 2010 onward.

If you're already on my contact list, you have nothing to worry about, if you choose to stay.

 

If you fall under any of the following four conditions:

1. If you have no public pictures at all to share, and/or...

2. Your profile picture is the standard "blockhead" image, and/or...

3. If you have nothing written on your profile page, and/or...

4. If all you have to offer are pictures of male genitalia (I don't care if it's yours or others)...

 

Then it doesn't put me under any obligation to add you back. I do check out all profiles, and I choose who to add. Blocking me may lead to me reciprocating in kind. (a.k.a.: Blocking you in return.) I don't like doing it, I don't like it when it's done to me. I'd like think that most of us have left the high school mentality behind with the end of high school.

 

Please don't feel you need to show me your naughty bits, especially if you're a guy. Trust me, if I need to see them, all I need to do is look at mine.

 

I would greatly appreciate it if you made the effort to comment before adding me or favoriting any images. Flickr's supposed to be about "Photo Sharing!", right? ^_^;

 

(As the Flickreenos say - "You know the guy. DON'T be that guy.") - 'Nuff said!

 

I do not exclude anyone - Men, Women, other TG folks, crossdressers, admirers, the occasional foot/shoe fans - All are welcome to take a look and see what I've put up. Friends get to see a few more photos. Those who have significantly earned my trust get to see a few more items that may not necessarily be for public consumption. Keep in mind that I do strict moderation of all my uploads, and flag them accordingly, based on Flickr and common sense guidelines.

 

*** Important!! Please read, or act like you have, in any case... ***

-- I don't do porn, I will not show parts that don't belong on a real girl, that's not something I'm into. (I'm not a sissy ^_^;) It's all about presenting, enhancing, and maintaining the art of the illusion for me. I do, at times, tend to be a bit into deconstructing what goes into my photos.

 

I'd like to take a moment to say "Thank You!" to my fellow sisters, friends, and admirers here on Flickr, those whom I've added, came out to, and who have added me. I value your input, and treasure your friendship. As Sandra Bernhard said, "Without you, I'm nothing." Thanks once again!
