Hi Julie,
I enjoyed the new story. I liked hearing about Jack as a younger in-experienced boy learning and acting a lot younger than when we see him the next summer in 1963 when BBM officially begins. Again, I like stories that 'expand' on BBM. You did a great job. And the visuals of the burning sheep will haunt me for a while now. Yuck! :D

I finally got the third story straightened out, and made ALL the changes i wanted, including calling it a sequel (it's a sequel to the movie and my second stiory), as several people suggested.
"Be Nice, Wouldn't It?"

I thought of the MMMs as an innocuous design. Planned, are you kidding? Leslie started "A Love Born From Steel" as a one-shot story...who plans...non-existant people just start attacking you! In the middle of talking about Korean pottery..in a psychology group, and I'm sure i won't be able to sit through "United 93" or "The Da Vinci Code" without these criters coming at me..

Julie,
This is another well done story! A few things I want to comment on:
1. About “Jack can lie really good” and “probably got that from his mother”, how very true it is. I love how Jack and Mrs. Twist told those sad and well intentioned lies, and feel sad for the fact that they had to at the same time.
2. Denver – Duh, I didn’t realize why you had Jim and Jacob in Denver in the last story.
3. The Jewish thing with the hand – This is a question. Is this a well known thing in America, in another word will a person like Ennis with all the traveling he had done know this? Sorry for my ignorance on American culture here. I actually never notice this from my Jewish friends. Only came to know this after watched The Sex and The City.
4. Well, this should not come as a surprise for you :). I am having trouble with the last 4 paragraphs. Guess I don’t mind the direction they are going, just have issue with the speed :). I can see Ennis and Jim making connection through their love for Jack, but the move was too sudden for me, particularly from Ennis, who was still grieving for Jack’s death, and always needed delicate handling (to warm up). But again that’s just me. We all read stories with our own baggage.
Will you ever consider doing an Ennis/Jack story?
