I'm sitting in the Krispy Kreme Doughnut shop using their WiFi to send a new story. It's called A Letter to Lizzie. Thank you for the kind wishes Ludmilla. I'm having a great vacation, the ocean renews my spirit. (Yes, I had to have a doughnut while I was here!)

YEY! A story AND a donut. Good for you, as long as there are no serious health problems, a person shouls be able to enjoy treats. Of course moderation is important, 1 or 2 donuts is good, 12 not-so-much. So enjoy Bluetiger. And have a safe vacation and trip home.

Dang, I would have congratuled you in person tonight if I'd seen this, but it didn't come up with "View Active Topics" so I missed it.

Thanks for the well wishes! :)

I finally got my transcript from HVCC! I'm waiting for word from Empire State College, but was really happy to hear that they would accept some prior credits. This is going to be very slow and I have to start with general education classes. American History and Spanish... :? I can't wait until I can get to the psychology stuff! I have to wait to hear back from the college first, so I shouldn't get ahead of myself too much. It's exciting, though! :)

Yes! Thankfully. :D
Well yes. I continue to write. And on Fanfiction.Net, for those who want, it is possible to cast a glance at my latest efforts. We arrived to
The Ears of the Elves, chapter Forty-four


And here is the beginning of the whole story.

But, I must say, you could also find something else on Fanfiction.net written by me. If you want.

Bether, maybe in the meantime you could do some crisis line work...do they still have crisis lines manned by volunteers or is it all done by professional truama counselors now? You can always ask the psychology professors what you can read to prepare you for taking their classes while you take those general classes...if you have time to read anything other than your assignments, that is.
Working on a major fan fic project. Two-thirds done. Hope to put it up in the not TOO distant future.
