I knocked off five chapters yesterday and will continue to work on Looking for Answers till I get that version done.  It is slightly uneven, in that I am debating with the plot points regarding Adam's background, the wife, and the mother, so there may be another version of 'Looking for Answers' in due course.

Editing is SOOOOO time consuming!

and for those who don't already know, I posted five more chapters of Looking for Answers on TCReader.livejournal.com today.  There are folks reading, I just don't know who they all are!!

As if I could stay away!! I'm not caught up but don't let me slow you down!!
You're the love of my life
And the breath in my prayers
Take my hand, lead me there

I can't forget the taste of your mouth
From your lips the heavens pour out
I can't forget when we are one
With you alone I am free

~~Santana~~Love of My Life

Welcome, Pauline.  Well you folks will be happy to know that I edited and posted another 10 chapters tonight and I am up to chapter 65 of Looking for Answers.  I am so relieved that this book is in much more 'mature' condition than the original 'Taking Chances' was.  Leslie and I spent weeks editing that story!  I guess I just hadn't got up to speed as yet!

And get ready for some 'Wayne Goodness.'

Pauline if you don't mind can you tell me where you heard about this story?
