As for Lureen, thanks for those comments. I have had a few criticisms, people telling me that she was much more fire-y, she would have blown her top, etc., but my view was that she had known something was wrong for awhile and was more relieved than angry to finally find out what was going on.

I also liked how you did Lureen.   

Her character in the movie struck me as steadfast, not fire-y. 

I hope she has a role in the new story.

Monday, August 28th

Mimosa Day -- the day Ennis learned he inherited the farm from Uncle Hal. For those in the mood to celebrate, may I suggest a tall flute of champagne with a generous splash of fresh squeezed orange juice.

Cheers!

For those who might have missed the beginning, here's the link to start at Chapter 1.

I just now started reading and left a review. Great job with establishing the plot in that first chapter!

Will probably have to read just a chapter or two at a time but I'm definitely hooked.
