yes the hiatus is approaching its end.

I am however, battling a resumption of my dental woes with a new infection and am commuting back and forth to bed.  I will be assembling the poll later on tonight (Sunday morning everyone ELSE'S time) for everyone to vote on so that I can plan a short story to write this week.

I am still a bit overcommitted on time since I am a) trying to recover b) trying to find a home and c) trying to balance my writing activities with my new job.  Things are going to normalize somewhat slowly.

Oh, Louise - not more dental woes! And in the midst of everything else you need to do :(   I'm so sorry - please do take care of yourself.  You know we'll be waiting patiently (well, sort of patiently  :)). 

Off to LJ to stuff the ballot box!

Thanks, Louise

hehehe you are funny.  We have a decisive response so far, so there won't be much competition for what will be in this week's story!

But the two runner's up will be the next two stories, never fear!

I have my article written which I am going to start as a column for the Daily Sheet on Davecullen entitled "An American Brokie in..." and hopefully turn that into a series as well, and I hope some of my faithful readers will be interested in my blog, "Louise on Tour" as well as my other ventures as I branch out!

I miss seeing him strike one of his poses.
I miss hearing him say "Oh, sweetheart!"
I miss watching while Ennis combs his hair.

Hi Louise,

Just want to say hello, and give you my sympathiies to the dental work.  I know about that.
I have been reading your blog lately, I'll say hello there.

I do wish I got here sooner so to follow all the stories. So much now to catch up on now.

All the best,

Marleen

When I meet Hugh Jackman I am going to have to explain just exactly what is at stake here and why we need to have some sort of mini series of the Laramie stories.  I am sure I am going to run into him one of these days, I already met one of his former classmates from university, it is only a matter of time!

But I promise tonight if I am not too tired I will work on the winning number.  The "Wedding night!"

I have recently finished reading the biography of gay rock star Freddie Mercury. He reminds me of Ellery in many ways. Long hair, slender figure (28 inch waist) and a propensity for striking poses!
