Oh, btw way Louise .. as I started reading Chapter 70 I remembered ..
I've wanted to add No-Spleen-Pete to the gallery for a while, do we have a description of him anywhere?
I picture him as a thin fellow with brown hair, about 5,8 or 5,9..and well, no spleen..   ;)

In the interest of science, I have to point out that  a spleen-less person does not look any different from a person with a spleen. It is one of those  organs, like your appendix, that you can live without with no apparent side effects.

yes but Ellery is determined to imagine that no spleen Pete somehow looks different than Pete when he had a spleen. I  don't know why... it's just one of those little Ellery quirks... he will forever be "Pete with no spleen Pete."

Nice to have hot Hugh Jackman in our avatars, isn't it Leslie? He's such a sight.

Nice avatars ladies!  ;)

I have been in meetings at work all day!  Thank goodness that is over.

Still have to get around to adding more pix to the Gallery.
Even though I have hi-speed internet at home, I have problems loading the gallery thread.  Does anyone else have trouble loading the thread?

Hello everybody, back from my holidays and rarin' to go  :D

Here's the plan: I plan to write and post Chapter 9 of my HI/TCJ AU fanfic Chiron at the LJ humaninterest and brokebackslash communities, and then I'm taking a hiatus from writing for a little while.  Two reasons:

1.  My story timeline is currently 5 weeks ahead of Lori's TCJ timeline, and I'd rather be working when my timeline is BEHIND hers.  That way, when I throw in a Jack/Ennis interlude or when Jack calls Lureen, I'll have madlori's context to work from.  (I guess this sets my fic apart from the other two HI/TCJ AU fics; I want to be in the same storyline, only told from Lureen's and LaShawn's point of view).

2. I want to return to my first love, FANART.  This time around, I'm illustrating not one by three stories: madlori's Two Crows Joy, jenna's Somebody New, and louisev's ever-ongoing Laramie Saga.  That oughta keep me busy eh?  ;-)

I want to thank everyone who took the time to comment on my fanart and fanfic so far.  It's been great fun, and I do plan to return to Chiron sometime in the future.
