At the time I didn't have a name for it But I can always add it in chapter 13. I really enjoyed the guys vs the gals in that scene and it was fun developing Gay's character transforming her into the confident Skydiver Captain depected in Soul Mates! By the end of this story she will be walking with her head held very high! And Peter Carlin is no slouch eithier That mad it even more fun! What do you mean, we're out of coffee! WWW IP Logged

Rather than make a 4 B I just pasted it into the exsisting text. On to Chapter five with spinners abound! Matt What do you mean, we're out of coffee! WWW IP Logged

But so very brave of him as well. I enjoyed Alec's cute line at the end. Straker -- human? Never say so! More, please! Denise IP Logged

It's done and I hope it was worth the wait. I would have had it done last night but Sue wanted cuddle time! Got to keep the home fires burning! I haven't done much editing on this so if you see something that doesn't look right, let me know. Thanks, Matt What do you mean, we're out of coffee! WWW IP Logged
Neesierie Ex Member Re: FDK Best Friends Reply #10 - Jun 4th, 2010 at 12:14am Print Post Matt, What an enjoyable story! It surprises me that a man was able to write a girl's friend story. And I don't mean that in a sexist way. I mean that we write what we know, and well . . . But you got it down very true to life. Thanks for a wonderful read! (And I never doubted that it was about the coffee!) I learned that one from Nora Roberts! IP Logged

I guess I had a good handle on Ginny's and Gay's personality. I'm not sure if I could do the same with Nina or Joan. I glad you enjoyed it! It was fun doing back story work and I have two more planned. I think you're going to like Absense as it focuses mostly on Ed and him supressing his feelings. We get to meet his father (my take) as well! It should be fun. What do you mean, we're out of coffee! WWW IP Logged
