LTAS poll

I am curious. May I ask those of you who've read and enjoyed my story Let's Talk About Sex (Version 1.0) to please answer the poll behind the cut.

I meant to rewrite the story for ages because I feel that my range of expression has come a long way. However, I noticed, while tinkering with the first few chapters, that I am not just fine-tuning the language, getting rid of 'manhoods' and 'members', expanding the vocabulary and adding the odd image here and there. No, I am revamping Spike's character. Literally. If you are curious, you can check out the result here: Version 2.0.

I am rewriting it for myself (and because I miss being in a Spander frame of mind). I don't hate the old version, although it sometimes makes me cringe.
I have no intention of destroying all old versions of the story. Purists can still enjoy the badly formatted, naive original. So, I'm not asking for people's blessing or anything. But I am curious how you see the story and whether your opinion of it has changed or is likely to change.... Indulge me. Pretty please?

Many thanks to everybody who answered my poll about Let's Talk About Sex. BTW, when I mentioned to my husband that I am rewriting this story we had the following convo:

me: I'm rewritng 'Let's Talk About.'
hubby: Oh, goody.
me: I'm tinkinering with Spike's characterisation. I'm making him darker, more realistic, closer to canon.
hubby: Rats!
me: What? Did you think I was going to add more sex scenes?
hubby: Of course! Spike definitely needs more sex. And more often.

:-) I *heart* my husband.

Had a busy day today. Many visitors, cooking a huge lunch, and some necessary shopping in town. Now I'm exhausted. I would like to write, but I'm already yawning heartily. I also have a new House epi on my drive... I guess I'll watch that to get back into the English language, and then I'll tinker some more with LTAS. Yup, sounds like a plan.

Toodles.
