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..   ;)

Time doesn't stand still and much as we like the young Ennis, he is getting a bit older now. Do you folks think he may be starting to look a little like this?





no??

Romantic?

I got a couple of messages from a new reader, one at the end of "Taking Chances" and another in the middle of "Looking for Answers" (the 2nd book) "yearning for more romance and tenderness between E and E."

From those of you who have read further than the middle of LfA, did you find them getting more romantic?  Considering the amount of kissing and embracing going on I didn't ever consider there was a deficiency in the romance department here, but since someone is asking for it, I figured I would throw the question out.  Is this romance insufficiently romantic?

Louise, I'm tempted to say, "never enough, never enough" here in this situation... no insufficiency on my end... it's just all the romantic moments are so incredibly amazing, i always want more!
 ;)
(I can remember along the way when there were a lot of chapters of Ellery at work, and the shit was starting to hit the fan, I was desperate to have E and E together again due to all the stress.  I didn't think anything was lacking in the story... it's just true to life... when things are going bad, you want the ones you love.)

Hi everyone,

I had a horrible day at work yesterday (patients not doing well) and just couldn't bear to read any 'real' conversation last night, though I did read updates.

It's nice to 'see' everyone again tonight.
 :)

PS- Whatcha all think - should I update my avatar with the new Laramie Saga one Lucise posted??

right. His description is at the beginning chapters of "Taking Chances".  Likes to wear all black.  Sort of like a wannabe Ellery.
