I think I have lost the battle on that one.
I spell it correctly but sometimes say it wrong. Not that it comes up that much.
Doesn't matter that we took him off that boat, Shepherd, it's the place he's going to live from now on.

OK, I know that there are big awards and such out there for pro writers, and there are lots of awards for fic writers, but as of now I'm claiming the "Coolest Feedback Ever" award.
Received today from Australia, a 365-day calendar with pictures of Italy in honor of "Nessuno", a bottle of 2001 Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon because she likes me and figures Hubby and I could use a bottle of good wine, and a letter of such appreciation that I'm all verklempt.
I think it would take Joss Himself saying, "You know, that Two Ladies of Quality writer, her stuff is cool," to make me feel giddier.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Connie, that's so nice! Plus, your writing is so good that you deserve that every day. (And *good* wine, IMO.)

Haven't tried the wine yet. I'm waiting for the weekend so I can imbibe to heart's content without having to be somewhere in the morning. It's got a cork in the top. I've never dealt with wine that comes with corks.
All right, I'm a cheap date, sue me. Riunite Lambrusco is my normal poison of choice.

And bless you, Teppy, for your lovely words.
Bottles of wine sent to my home. If I start receiving bouquets, do I need to start considering myself a diva? Have a few dramatic fits of temperament?
No, wait, that's called the internet.

"My drink preference does not indicate my sexual preference. "
You win "Best Feedback" hands down.
Who's going for "Funniest Hate Email Ever"?
