Marie, you are very welcome, and congratulations on your landmark post!

I just love getting up every day and reading your daily comment on my chapter (when I post one that day there is).  I had high hopes for this weekend and realized too late I have to finish my prerequisite computer based training courses before I can walk in Monday morning in London.  Yi yi yi!  So I am hopeful of a chapter tonight but ... it depends on how the CBT goes!

okey dokey...

I am heading out early tomorrow morning for the beginning of what promises to be two grueling weeks on the road and staying at hotels.  And I am not sure I will have consistent access for my week in Egham starting tomorrow.  I asked for the room with the wifi but it might not work, so access might be off and on.  At any rate, the show goes on and I am editing again!

I managed to plough through a number of edited chapters of "Looking for Answers" today after getting chapter 51 done of Chesterfield and here they are:


http://tcreader.livejournal.com/26149.html  Chapter 27: Friction
http://tcreader.livejournal.com/26451.html  Chapter 28: An Unknown Face
http://tcreader.livejournal.com/26451.html  Chapter 29: Powderkeg
http://tcreader.livejournal.com/27148.html  Chapter 30: Crisis
http://tcreader.livejournal.com/27460.html  Chapter 31: Helpless
http://tcreader.livejournal.com/27665.html  Chapter 32:  Eye Contact

note that starting with the July 9 entries (Looking for Answers chapter 1) the tcreader site now features LJ-Cuts for easy reading and Flisting!

Louise,  I do hope everything goes smoothly and the two grueling weeks aren't too grueling  ;)!  Thanks for the six chapters - I know what I'm doing tonight.

Take care,
Marie

P.S. The L.J. cuts are great!

Louise,
Thanks for the updates-I was missing my new men!!

Have a safe trip & I selfishly hope that wifi works well for you. If not, at least I know why there might be a gap before my next fix!!

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

I am going to be plugging away at this... this past week was ... pretty frantic, and I was working some long hours, but I won't have much to do at the hotel but eat and... edit.  Even if I cant be online regularly, I will be able to get updates in at least once a day, so no worries there!

SPOILERS




The intensity of these chapters never diminishes, no matter how many times I read them.  Colson's pain is so raw and palpable it jumps right off the screen.  It's hard to watch and even harder to experience, but no one can short-circuit the grieving process. 

Thanks,
Marie
