Getting Here

Hi everyone

I first want to thank you all for the wonderful feedback, I love hearing your honest opinions.

I had the day off from work so it gave me time to think about the next part of the story but I wanted to kind've explain how I got to where I did. I know I've said a million times how close the stories are to my real life, but I was trying to stray from that.

While listening to Shawna's Playlist I realized that what I knew personally was what was driving both me and the characters and it was like something snapped and it all came very clear. I'm sure some of you like to live in stories and don't watch special features on DVDS or meet actors after a play so I'm putting a warning here to stop reading if you don't want to know these kind of things.

After I had finished section one, I had to find some way to split Tomas and Sofia up. I even asked a friend about Amnesia and I was ready to go with this idea but it seemed to overdone and I thought it was boring (as I whined to Shawna About). I knew that Tomas wouldn't leave unless he thought it was for her own good, if he thought he was hurting her. I think after that it all became cake,so much so that I actually bought a cake to make it seem easier.

Well, there is my daily rambling.

    Have you ever considered making the Spirits and Angels story into a script for a movie on Hallmark because I think this would be perfect for them.
