Okay, so I love Rocket. Percy has so much potential as a character. I love your little hints with Max at the end.. Can't wait for this to start hitting its stride. I'll be quiet now. And whether you realize it or not this is your work. Think Love is in the Cards. You write in many different formats. This is just one, so don't limit yourself or try to pigeonhole yourself. You are much better than that. Till next time.

Life is never an easy thing. You hopefully survive the disasters and move on a bit smarter. When the time and chance arrives you try to reach out so that same thing doesn't happen to others. It is always easy to say but that is the past but we are people and our pasts help to create who we are. They don't force you into a mold but how you handled it, moved on from it, and are still going shows a strength and character. Just remember you don't ever have to feel you are alone and remember if you need your friends you merely have to ask.

Oh, learning to fly, new uses for energy, and an entire herd like your talking tiger. hmm. Can't wait for more.

Finally. I am so glad to get new chapter. I was afraid what it would be like for Matt when he finally came home. Scary as hell but at least he is moving on and not lost in the pain of it. Great chapter Stu. I'm off to read the next one.

Actually at 35 he is closer to my age Tiger. LOL.

Well my vacation draws to an end and I realize I got a lot but not everything I wanted done. However I did get to relax and didn't over do anything. I also got to enjoy the fair this year so really not a bad vacation at all. I have finished up one and half of the last three chapters of Accidents Happen. Tomorrow after one more look over I will send it to my editor and beta. That in and of itself is major for me. I have begun work on my next major story, the expansion of my summer Anthology piece. It will be out sometime next month and I'm titling it The Strange Life of Jonas Mark. I have a new person working with me on this and it has me really excited. So far my winter anthology piece has been thrown out three times. I have begun three different stories and just hit the point where I didn't like it and wouldn't finish it. So going to have to do some thinking and see what comes up again. You wouldn't think working off the idea of an aftermath would be hard. Sigh. Anyway, I'm sitting here typing this up on my phone. My power went out a half hour ago as I was about to go downstairs and put up my laundry. Guess I am getting up early in the morning now to do that. Anyway have a good one all.

I have three chapters left here Andy. How much more could I put Charlie through? Besides I have some loose ends to tie up, so expect some people to make return appearances while that happens.

Well hopefully everything will be tied up for you George. As for feelings, well do you ever really get over someone you loved and lost? I think that is something that Scott will always carry with him.

Thanks so much for simplifying that for me Andy. Scott the Hawk and Charlie the Chicken? Gee I had hoped it was a bit more than that.

I'm an innocent in this. Honest. Geez. Picking on me. Why do you suspect I'm evil? I mean I haven't done anything cruel to Charlie yet.

Sigh. I guess I am going to have to change my name to Dr. Evil. lol. But honestly, does it seem so bad? I mean it is a rough life but nothing so outrageous is going on around Charlie is it?

Me? Evil? I never do more to my Charlie than he can handle. Besides, since when do we elect a god?

How often do you pick up about hundred pounds plus dead weight? Scott might be hunky and in good shape but that doesn't make him superman.

Well the big three on Long Island are still Walbaum's, King Kullen, and Stop N Shop. But the closest one to downtown Patchogue is Walbaum's. And you are correct with the ages.

Lugh, I don't know why you even brought it up but if it means getting Tine done I am going to hound Cia to get you to finish up. It looks like next year could be your "Finish up all those old stories" year. Doesn't mean if you have a flash fiction or short tale we wouldn't want it too. And yes, Lugh, we would still want that wonderfully devious little mind of yours to contribute to the Anthologies as well. Cia, please, crack that whip. lol

Lugh, You are creating the world your creature lives in. Were just by being isn't part of a normal world. I've read stories of weres that transformed into huge monsters. Some weres simply become a wolf, bear, lion, or whatever. Others become a combination caught somewhere between the two. The idea of were-insect is really different. Then again insects usually give me the willies. They can be beautiful or very destructive. Face it, the idea of someone turning into another being is a form of escape to begin with. The life of this other being can be as wonderful or horrible as you choose to make it. Any way you look at it Lugh I just can't wait to see what you come up with.

LOL. Face it, Charlie's life is one crazy ride.

Every once in a while things come along that excite you or make your life better. Sometimes it something major - a new car, a new outfit, or a new lover. Sometimes it something small - a card, money found in the pocket of a jacket, a phone call that makes you smile. Lately I have been blessed. I am not sure how else to put it. Things in life rarely go as one would hope. There are obstacles that pop up, things you need to overcome, and more often than not - your own stupidity to correct. I know I sure as hell never claim to be perfect but I try to find an upside to most things. That brings me to what I call my small blessings. I call them my blessings but most people would call the friends. I have a number in my real life that attempt to keep me on an even keel. They are there when i need to talk, try to cheer me up when I'm glum, and know I will gladly return the favor however I can. In plain English, they don't expect more from me than what I can give and that goes both ways. That also brings me to site. When it comes to the big man in charge, Myr, all I can say is thanks. I might have done no more than seen him in the chat room for a few minutes but his creation of this site has opened a few doors for me. I've taken more than one or two people from the site and turned them into friends. They aren't just an editor, an author, or someone who is here to support others. I have turned to these people originally for help in writing and that has lead to them becoming friends. I kid with them, write to them, write with them, talk to them over skype or msn, and basically turned them from anonymous, to acquaintance, to friend. I don't know if everyone has taken the opportunities presented to them but I know I did. For their help and friendship I am truly blessed.

Lets just say it will be a while before Rick comes around.

No. NO Ted for a Wagner. Just not in the cards, Andy. Don't worry, I don't forget Ted. Keep reading.

Wow. Karnac really needs a new look. He is so off base. Keep reading for more answers.

I have fun with my characters. Things don't always go smoothly but I try to do right by them.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I don't have throw away characters. If I have someone enter the story they are going to be around for a while. And where do you see me having a Roman Orgy?

Thank you Andy. I tried to give you things from Scott's view. Yeah, he has balls the size of NY. Scott just isn't one you look at and go, oh gay guy. So he came out to Charlie as he wanted to just not like most people would expect. I always say I'm not out to reinvent the genre just put my spin on it.
