Sometimes I an envious of Logan, although I admit that Amie sounds more my type in general!   Nikki has already molded Logon, and can take him any time she wants him ... unless there is a plot twist?   LOL

LOL I knew I was going to get a comment soon.  I'm assuming you're referring to Belle?  As usual my job is the culprit for keeping me too busy to get it finished.  I'm off today and working feverishly.  I might get it posted tonight.

I had trouble getting it to fit, decided to restructure it.  So it should be ready to go soon.  What I'm going to end up doing is having this episode run directly into the next one whereas there's usually a little break in between of weeks or months.

Reading on Deviant just feels different than on FF. I don't know how to explain it. All the great ones I've read I normally read first on here then randomly find it on FF again later. Never the other way around.

I see.  Well I was working on Chef Nicki today so it shouldn't be too long now.  Demeter is going up as soon as I get a chance to do one more read-through, so then I'll finish the next of Nicki's installment.  Thanks for reading!

Yes, very much so.  In fact, I've been working so much (and out of town so much) that I requested a sabbatical and it will start in a few days.  Even when I'm off I'll still be working.  I'll just be working on writing projects instead of 'truckin' for the man'.

It's funny you brought this up about Jake from Belle of the Drive-In because I was just working on part 9.
