Wowzers! Kittens, you overwhelm me! Truly. I barely expected people to read the darned thing let alone leave me such wonderful feedback. And so many of my FAVORITE authors are listed below – yeah, the folks on my “I worship you” list. So, yeah, overwhelmed. Thank you all so much.
As just a general comment, I know there are a lot of questions out there…you’ve all been asking them in your comments. Many of those questions will be answered in the next update…others will be answered in future updates. I promise, I won’t leave big gaping holes in the story. When I initially started writing this, it was an experiment. I was going to respond to my own challenge. But, for some reason, I couldn’t stop writing. And the more I talked to watson about the thing, the more ideas I had pop into my head. So, I just decided to suck it up and give it a shot on its own. So, in the original scheme of things, you would have had a “one post” story and everything would have been included there. As it is, you have to deal with the time between updates, which are going to occur about once a week. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
Okay…on to individual replies….

Once she starts, will she be able to stop?
Okay…you should know as well as I that this thing has it’s own mind. I think I’ve created a monster…does that make me a split personality of Frankenstein? Both the doctor and the monster? Mary Shelly is rolling in her grave.
I’m really glad that you’re still enjoying this story, watson. I mean, after weeks of reading and rereading the damned thing, I figured you’d be over it by now. But you’ve stuck by me, and I thank you.
Yes, that is an actual dream Tara is having…though I’m sure she has similar daydreams. After all, she’s had 8 years to develop and hone them. I’ll bet she’s got quite a few rolling around in that gorgeous head of hers.
You and your French flight attendant image! Are you letting us in on a secret fantasy? Hmmmm….
Not giving anything away by saying they are at the 14/15 year old range in the flashback…cuz more of that is about to be revealed in the update. So, yeah…they were very much a couple without really realizing it. I based their actions and conversation on the types of things my friends and I did and talked about at that age. If only I had known then what I know now…Kurt and Jim never would have been an issue in high school.
Thank you, again, for all of your help. I really really REALLY appreciate it. I hope you don’t get sick of me…there’s more heading your way. Got your stamp ready?[/blockquote]
[hr]
Irene[blockquote]Fajita, you crack me up! Love you, girl!
No worries about watson serving as beta for both of us…I promise I won’t take away quality time between the two of you.
I’m so glad that you enjoyed the first chapter. I know there are still a lot of unanswered questions, but if I answered them all in the first post, I’d have no reason to update!
Quote:
Okay, now that you started this you know you have to finish it…right?
OF COURSE I’m going to finish it. I have to…watson will kick my ass if I even
think about not finishing. Though, with the kind of ideas I keep getting for our girls, it may end up being much longer than I ever thought it would be.
The Insano Triplets will NEVER be over…never never never ever![/blockquote]

Cam[blockquote]Oh, Cam…I know those sniffles are just because you’ve been sick. Don’t try to cover it up will talk of pride. Especially since now I know you don’t trust me. Yes! My name
is Carleen!
I’m really glad you like the first chapter. I know there are lots of questions still unanswered, but that’s what updates are for.
So more will be revealed in just a few minutes…and in the weeks to come.

You said you've written more than 20 pages, missy, and I don't see 20 pages worth of post here (unless you wrote on note cards or napkins or something)...I DEMAND ANSWERS!!!
No…no note cards or napkins…I just used really really big font.[/blockquote]

Quote:
The first paragraph and a half, I must say is kind of cheap thrills. Nothing personal but I kind of can't stand that type of "here you go... oh, not you sucker!
I actually kinda agree with you...I can see where you’re coming from. This is my first fic...and it was supposed to be a short one for the challenge...I went with what I was comfortable with and with what I knew would work to get the point across. I’m hoping that with time and practice, I will be able to steer clear of the “clichéd” tactics and be more original.
You’re right about the ages….again, not giving anything away since more is revealed in this next update…14/15 in flashback….22/23 in present time.
I’m happy you enjoyed the first chapter…coming from you, that’s quite the compliment. I hope my future updates are as worthy.[/blockquote]

Foomatic[blockquote]Thanks so much for your kind words. I was also a military brat…fortunately, we didn’t move around…Dad made friends with his detailer and we got to stay in San Diego…Dad was stationed at EVERY base in SD at some point during our time there…but we didn’t have to move. I was fortunate. Update coming up soon![/blockquote]
[hr]
Rachel[blockquote]Wow! I’m so flattered that you chose my fic as one of the few times you’ve left feedback. Thank you!
They’ve traded more than the one picture in the last 8 years…there were also letters (Tara mentioned them). Some of those letters will be part of the story in future updates.
I’ve always felt Tara deserved a better family…so I decided to give her one.
The last line makes you want more? Well, okay…here’s more![/blockquote]

willowtree114[blockquote]Thanks so much for stopping in…I’m glad you’re enjoying it. I can’t wait to see what happens either!

[hr]
cooper[blockquote]Well, as I mentioned earlier, W and T were definitely “couply” before T moved away…they just didn’t realize it for themselves. I guess absence does make the heart grow fonder. As for visiting, it’s kinda difficult to do the international travel thing when you’re still a minor. Plus, it’s expensive. Plus, there’s just finding the time…cuz you KNOW W was always in summer school. Plus, the two of them not seeing each other for 8 years makes for better fiction.
Time of the move, they were 14/15….present they are 22/23. More will be revealed in the next update. Enjoy![/blockquote]
[hr]
cebrau[blockquote]Thanks so much, Ceci. I’m really glad you’re enjoying it. As for why I didn’t post before…um…I don’t know…didn’t have anything to post? The next update is coming up right after the replies…then I will be doing the update a week thing…sorry.
And yes…your questions will be answered in time.

it's better than smut!! (well....maybe not smut
Damned right it’s not better than smut! Nothing is better than smut! Well, maybe me participating in the smut rather than just reading it…hey! A girl can dream!
Thanks so much for your kind words, Emms…they mean a lot to me. I’m so glad that my descriptions met your standards…since you ARE the queen of narrative description and atmosphere.
Next update, coming up![/blockquote]
[hr]
Jeanne[blockquote]Thanks, Jeanne! Really glad you like it so far. I can’t blame the flight attendant for trying either. I know I would! At least Brigette seems to have a good attitude about being rejected.
And, no…you’re not asking far too many questions. They are all questions I expected actually…and they will be answered in time. Letters will come up in future updates.
The next chapter is coming up in just a few minutes. Hopefully you will continue to enjoy! [/blockquote]

Carleen….what took you so long!!!!
Um…didn’t have anything to post? But I do now…lots of it…so be on the look out in the coming weeks.
Brigette seems to be a hit among the kittens….maybe I should bring her back at some point. Hmmmmm…..
Really glad you’re enjoying…and thank you so much for your kind words and emoticons.

very nifty title graphic. I really really love it!
And, as I’ve said earlier, I would be hitting on Tara too…oh HELL YEAH I would!
I’m happy I was able to make you smile, Chris. I hope future updates hold up as well.[/blockquote]

when you're a kid then overseas travel is not always something that you're able to do, or something that your parents will allow you to do.

Awww damn! I was really shooting for the naughty variety. I guess I’ll have to take it up a step and head into NC-17 territory.
Thanks so much for your nice words, Gemma. I appreciate it.
So, we get that update for Spark now, right?

i vividly remember you saying " i only write nonfiction" so emphatically, it never crossed my mind you would find your way onto the fic train.i guess that comp. book of yours got so full of ideas you just had to do something about it, right?
Um…actually…I had to buy another composition book, Mary. So, yeah, “idea girl” went a little nuts.
Really glad you enjoyed the first installment, Mary. I’m relieved to know that you like the details. I was a little afraid that I might be going overboard with them. But, your feedback has given me confidence, so thank you!
More coming up. Hope you stick around for more.[/blockquote]

LesbianJedi87[blockquote]Thanks, Rose! I’m glad you chose my little story as one of the few fics you read. I’m just about to update…as soon as I get these replies finished up.

Hey, Baby! Glad you
finally decided to come along for the ride.
Thanks so much for all of your lovely words of encouragement. Your opinion means so much to me.
Quote:
AND Brigette hitting on Tara was HILARIOUS! What a shut-down!
I’m thinking you like that just because you think it’s some kind of poetic justice or something.
Quote:
You’re obviously experienced.
Hey now! I’ve got skillz, Baby! You know that!
Quote:
I have always loved your imagination and your way with words just astonishes me. One of the very very many reason that I love you so much.
Just one? What are the others?
I’m really happy you like it, Schmoopsiepoo. I hope I continue to live up to your expectations. Love you!

Under my bed. Which probably wasn’t a very good idea…the dust bunnies got hold of them and expected a ransom for me to get them back.
