am not a writer
Kea - you're selling yourself short!! I know a writer when I read a writer, but I understand what you're saying about exploring the characters in your head, at least to some degree. Jack and Ennis are tattooed on my soul. I'll say something and hear it in one of their voices, I'll look in the rearview mirror and see Ennis walking away. It's bizarre and fascinating and wonderful how that's happened. I was talking to Mom about something tonight and gave her Lureen's knowing smile and nod from the Thanksgiving scene...weird.
So..I replied via yahoo about the story; clearly I want more as fast as you can provide it ! :-)
I cannot wait to hear Iris' reaction!!
Hugs back and thank you again SO MUCH!
