There's a lot of ideas here, and if anything I think they need even more space... so the prequel (+) would be a good thing. And do read TTTW, it's excellent!

Isn't that the awesome thing about writing? How schizoid it makes us? The funny thing is, it really wasn't in my head for all that long. These things tend to jump into my head during a dog walk or shower, or something, and are on a very fast burn until I get in front of a computer... Compared to you other guys over at Elephant Words, I'm like a microwave... the stuff cooks fast, but the tastes and textures aren't as deep! What shocked me is how much extra stuff that I thought of was missed out in this piece, considering how damn long it got! Maybe a shorter sequel piece is percolating... And I haven't read the Time-Traveller's Wife, but it is in the house waiting... Girl One read it, and loved it!

I can tell you've had this one on your mind for awhile. (Have you read The Time-Traveller's Wife? Really excellent novel.) It's interesting that this is all sweetness and light compared to your final piece. Wow. I can tell you’ve had this one on your mind for awhile.
