*sigh*

Last night I tried to post a new chunk of Lucky - but my computer crashed. Luckily hubby was able to fix the problem this morning. But after that we went out, visiting a friend. Maybe it's just as well. Currently I'm not sure if I shouldn't toss the next chapter and try again. No, I don't believe it was a sign, but the time span allowed my self-doubts to fester. I just found some very glowing feedback for Dealing, which is nice, because my mood is a bit meh today. I am cold and tired. I just hope the daylight simulator lamp that I ordered arrives soon.

Ohh, you're getting a light-therapy-lamp! Just be careful to have the right dose - too much can be unhealthy too. During the dark months I switch mine on first thing in the morning - makes waking up a lot easier :)

You already know how much I enjoyed Dealing, but I don't know if I ever told you once it was finished that it was probably one of my favourite pieces, bar none.

Your writing is of such high standard, your exploration of character has laudable depth. I have spent a lifetime working with artists and your writing definitely earns you the title. Don't ever lose faith in your ability, you have the gift.

Thank you. *beams*
In our local creative writing group people don't consider me an artist, they frown on fiction. If you don't write about your own private woes in long rambly introspective monologues but warble on about craft, they believe you to be... I don't know, insincere, I guess. Superficial. *shrug*
Being called an artist is very flattering. Thank you very much. (Although writing non-con Spangel AU seems to stand in strange contrast to that title.)

I am very very glad Dealing gave you so much pleasure. Thank you for letting me know again and again. :-)

*hug*

Glad I helped by being my fangirl-y self. ^_~

Yes you did, definitely.
