Yeah... That went well.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I know I'm late to the party, but I am finally caught up from my trip and I'd love to read it, Allyson. I am home tomorrow and will have time if you care to send it my way.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Scrappy, insent with thanks! Ginger, got it with thanks!

Our wings are not tired.

First chance to sit and read today, finally. 2/3 through and the short version is that I am so delighted to meet and know Sam. Back to reading.....

Oh, the boys are reading too. Brendon asked if there were drugs. Bobby asked if there were guns. I told them both they were clearly switched at birth.

More later.

Just read it, and agree with you on the stickiness of the vampire bat chapter. Loved your feedback! So happy.

Re-reading for more coherent details on that. I read through quickly just jotting quick notes so as to not interrupt the flow. The rhythm and flow from chapter to chapter was so smooth and the transitions very clever. Going back now on that chapter to see why I didn't think it flowed as well.

Allyson, you have a wonderful talent for telling a story. I felt like a little kid sitting at your feet listening to tales with eyes wide open.

Back to re-read and get all nit picky again!

Sorry I didn't get past chapter two. I'm a bit over-committed this weekend.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Allyson, may I let Kara read it? She's 3rd grade, so close to your target audience. The profile addy's good.

I'd be honored. Insent.

No worries, Gud. I'm in the midst of beta reading a book on arrow of time, and woefully behind. I feel your over-committed.

I was under the impression that the clock ran out this weekend, but if commenting past that time is useful, I can do more.
