Hi Leslie!

It's been way too long! And I'm finally able to say a HUGE thank you for your continual support of and reviews on Inevitability! As always, I truly appreciate you taking the time to read and comment (and you shouldn't have to wait too long for the next chapter!).

We got our new puppy on Christmas day and named him Levi. He is so naughty! Every time I talk to my mom, he's done something to destroy the house (i.e. tear up the toilet paper, eat books, go through the trash, dig holes in the yard). He's super cute, though, which seems to be the only thing going for him at the moment I bet the watercolour your daughter did of Bear is beautiful, and it's always so much more appreciated since it's handmade!

I did get a job! That's one of the reasons why I have been so preoccupied lately. I got a seasonal position with H&R Block during tax season, which ended on May 1st. The position was an afternoon/evening shift so I didn't have any motivation to write. And on May 2nd, I started a full-time position (with regular hours) with Re/Max! So, I've been feeling a little more creative lately. To which I can only, "IT'S ABOUT TIME!" - hehe!

I can't believe it's been so long since we've last talked! How have you been? What's new?

Hope you've been well!

Thx again! I am glad you like it. The authors here are so talented that I feel insecure at times! Thx very much for your review! I cherish every word!

Hey! Thanks for your review! -Honestly, I do not plan on writing an actual story to 'The Pyre'. I wrote that snippet for this week's weekly challenge. Maybe one day I will, but right now I have two main stories. And I neglect them horribly.

Thank you! I am glad you like it! I will continue to do my best!

Hello, dear!

It's been quite some time, but I wanted to drop by and thank you for your wonderful reviews for Kindred Spirits! I don't ever expect to get feedback on anything I post here, but I can admit that it's a really nice feeling to receive such positive words from my readers. At the end of the day, we all love S/K, and it's always a good thing for such kind support to be given to one another. Authors create content for other fans to enjoy, and we hope our readers share the same excitement we feel about this particular pairing. But if all we hear are crickets and radio silence, it can be difficult to be inspired enough to write, especially when we're doing it for free. So, I'll always be appreciative of the time you guys take to send me something back.

On another note, I'm sorry for not responding to your reply on a post I had written on your Wall (like waaay back). Dokuga's notification system has been spotty, and it doesn't send an email when one uses the feature to directly reply to a Wall post on their own page. We'd only get notified if we visited each other's separate profile pages and replied there.

I haven't heard from Stella in a long time, unfortunately. As you've mentioned, I know that her last internet activity was dated back in January of 2016 (according to her tumblr). I remember seeing her post something about her health and the chaos that was happening in Greece (where she lives... or so I can recall) at the time, so her absence may pertain to something along those lines. Did you ever manage to get in touch with her? I hope she's doing alright.

And no worries about your concerns, even if that sounds a bit contradictory. I'm sorry to hear what happened to your older boy, and if I'm not mistaken, the one you got after as well. I've got a senior dog at home at the moment, and it's always distressing when she has her moments of slowing down and showing her age. She's 17 going on 18 this May. And just within the last decade or so, she's had a couple of scares where she could've left us but somehow managed to bounce back and recover. I like to call her my little soldier.

I hope your female and your Florida boy are still doing well? I hope to not leave on a sad and somber note. I'll always be wishing you the best otherwise!

Hi! Thank you so much for reviewing BL I'll definitely be adding more chapters till I can get a funny ending. I've been in such a funk with my stories so I've been just reading great fics to get my muse going.

Thanks for the review! Yeah, I've got a few OC's going around in this story. LoL! I hope it's not confusing. The battle is about to start. ^_^

Thank you for your service!! I hope you enjoy Blind Love, feedback, as you read, is always welcome! I will warn two chapter of it I think need to be fixed, but for now, I am leaving them.

Thank you again for your lovely review and birthday wishes (from such a long time ago! Almost a month?). I hope that you have been well!

I completely agree that our dogs make our lives whole. After having it hidden behind the couch since September, I've finally hung the collage I made in memory of my dog. I kept putting off getting the back wired. Subconsciously, I don't think I was ready to hang it; even now, I'm not sure I'm quite ready to have it where I can see it ever day - makes me teary-eyed every time I look at it. But, it's nice to have him looking down on me (literally and metaphorically) while I do my writing. Mom's actually on the wait list for another puppy (a schnoodle); our remaining dog, Walle, hasn't quite recovered from the loss, but we're hoping that a new addition will help with his healing process.

Ouch, ouch, ouch! I'm glad that it doesn't hurt you now! But, I can only imagine how painful breaking your legs would have been at the time! Horses are such amazing and beautiful creatures; I wish I had had more opportunity to be around them when I was younger. And I love the names of your horses!

It sounds like your family is very artistic and comes from a long line of artists! I will definitely check out Heather's work; I'm always happy to admire art!

Hope you have a wonderful thanksgiving!

Thank you for your review on "She's Not The Cheating Kind", i'm glad you liked it.
