Erika, I just read your story. I liked how you showed the inherent lack of personal privacy that some handicapped people have, and how it can affect personal decisions. I also liked how you described the guy in the scenario -- so lovely and so damaged. You have a terrific writing style. I hope you get a novel (or better yet, several) published at some point, because I could read your prose for hours.
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Thanks, Dan! That's some nice people you guys have over there in Mankato.
Also, where is this thing to read, written by Erika? In her LJ?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

Clean lines, acid etched. I dream of writing so vividly.

Thanks, Astarte. Actually the original? Meandered, but I sort of liked it that way.
