I agree with your assessment. Can you offer up any details about your x-mas au. maybe a little back story...I'm excited to have found you and your stories. I just read parts 5-8 of your most recent post. I find that your stories are quite interesting, they always leave me wanting more. You pick themes that really are quite fascinating and you seem to have a real knack for character development. Your inner muse seems to have really lead you in the right direction as you seem to hit the literary mark every time.
