Hi Dom,
I have been an avid reader of yours for awhile now. Like you my love of internet fiction started with jfinn. I fell in love with the human condition, and went looking for more stories to fill my exsessive reading addiction. I really mean addiction. I have been known to live on canned soup when I had to choose between food and books. Not much comes between me and reading. jfinn opened up a whole new venue for me. I stumbled onto your writting on nifty. I found The Ordinary me and immediately was addicted. Your characters are real and well developed and your plots are entertaining. Seriously, I have read some mass market books that couldn't compare to your stories. I have never posted on here- just not my thing- but I felt that you need to know that people do love your writing and that they touch something inside of us. You have to or we wouldn't keep coming back for more.
As for girly drinks- I agree that they taste better than beer, but I guess my opinion doesn't count since I happen to be a girl...
