Yes - and maybe a little afterglow intimate chat with the post mortem on the reception. We just know there have to be a few good Wayne highlights!

Well, Louise, if you want to go REALLY short, maybe you should join us on the drabblefest....lots of good stuff going on there...

"Short" in the context of trying to write short stories and ending up with 70,000 to 90,000 word novels, I am trying to get down to 10,000 words now!
I am going to assemble a poll, and went back to find the outstanding plot ideas from readers. Items that have been covered I have struck through:
Stories I have planned:
· the story about Chas
· the story about Pookie's first time aka Simon says
· the wedding reception
· Ellery's POV of him meeting Ennis
Reader Suggestions:
· a Christmas story (sorry! I did forget, it was a little while ago! I presume it would be mostly about Ellery and Ennis celebrating Christmas... and it is wintertime in the northern hemisphere as well as in Laramie now so it would be kind of sweet! Especially if Louise posts it around the holiday )
This next lists is in large part David's:
Jeremy's parents or siblings
Bobby Twist
Gabe Blackwell
Momma Sampson coming by with cookies for the boys only to hear Jeremy screaming "More More!" thru the door!
· new situations:
Dupree at work now that he's out
Jeremy professes his love for Nick?
How will Nick and E&E get along?
A new truck for Ennis?
Lance brings home a 3rd for Jeeves to play with?
Ennis finds out Ellery would leave everything to him in his will or is written as co owner in everything or something like that
Jeeves falls in love with Lance? And tells him?
Yep I thought of one. A honeymoon for Ennis and Ellery? All newlyweds need one of those, and after everything our boys have been through together, they deserve it.
More ideas that have surfaced, in part answering some of the suggestions above:
* The fate of Lance - a stand alone story. This can be combined with Jeeves' new acquaintance, Jerry Lamont
* Richard the Trucker and Nate - one of those "virgin" stories!
* Nick and Ennis really meet. I was thinking of finally having dinner at E & E's!
* The Paso Fino trip to Puerto Rico - I am going to combine that with the "honeymoon" idea. Stealth honeymoon.
More suggestions from readers? The Lance story promises to be bigger so I am not going to do that one immediately. I am looking for "SHORT" ideas! so I can actually get a story done in a week like I first said I would!
