Susan, from what I've read of James? He'd probably let rather a good bit of his attitude show. If you can find a way to have him make it clear to Sebastian, via choice of phrasing, that he knows Sebastian is a fortune hunter and a climber and that if even looks like making Anna unhappy, by God, he'll personally kick Sebastian halfway to Salamanca and back, I'd do it that way.

Allyson, due to my account acting up, insent a second time (if you got both mails, the second is such a copy of the first).
deb, if you need any help, my offer still stands (or, if you took me up on it last time, I'm afraid I didn't get anything, and sorry about that).
Mmm, yes, that helps. I wonder if the cliche where the father/guardian asks the young man if he can "support her in the manner to which she has become accustomed" existed yet then, because I can see James turning it on its head and pointing out that she'd be the one supporting him.
I'll have another go at it tomorrow morning. I just finished typing in my eight handwritten pages from the past two days before I got to the point where Sebastian and James clammed up on me. Almost 2000 words. Not too bad.
Nilly, I didn't send anything because I'd asked which account you wanted, and never heard back; last few times we had major hiccoughs, remember?
Which account?
Susan, goodonya. I need to finish the damned story today because I am itching to start Cruel Sister.
deb, sorry, I probably missed that.
Let's try the profile address, and I'll answer you from the university one as well, just to make sure things are OK. How's that?
You bet. Sending; it isn't done yet, but it's about 80% done.
Nilly, did you get it?
And Teppy, new topic today?
deb, got it, and the attachment opens as it should. Thanks.
I have to laugh..I'm trying to think how to finish my editorial and the Mayor pops up in quotes with "I had this whole section on civic pride."
I can't come up with a good topic. I have a file of suggested topics from people, but they're currently all "ending" topics, and I honestly don't want to go down that road this week, not after the election.
So -- any suggestions?
