Thanks. And you know, you've given me two valuable ideas about where these characters could go, in my current mess and a future one, in as many comments. I'm going to friend you if that's okay. Look forward to getting to know you better.

Feel free to friend back or not, as you like. Most of my journal is unlocked at present. I'll be irritating posting word counts over the next month (and possibly some excerpts I get stuck on) but usually I'm not that prolific unless I have a story I'm posting.

Again, thanks, and nice meeting you, as it were.
