Hi All,

Just a quick note to thank everyone who is still reading and reviewing my stories. I am still shocked at the response I have received - especially A Heart's Savior and A Life Stolen. I am on maternity leave now, having just had my second son, and up to my neck in diaper, bottles and sleepless nights. I have had a couple of people inquire as to whether I am going to write another story, and/or a sequel to ALS. The answers are, no, I will no be writing a sequel. B&E and have enough angst and can have their happy ending. As far as another story - I would love to! I just need an idea for one. As soon as that hits me and I have spare minute to myself, I hope to start writing again. In the meantime, thanks again for the support and I am still avidly reading others' stories. (any suggestions, preferably completed ones, is appreciated)

June 2008

This most wonderful and crazy thing happened to me this week. A reader, Child-of-God13 offered to translate A Heart's Savior to Spanish! I am so incredibly flattered and honored. If you happen to know Spanish (I took five years of it in school and college and can barely speak a lick) here is the link.

OKAY - It's finally posted- the sequel to A Heart's Savior. I'm so sorry it took me so long. I am in the middle of my second pregnancy and to say that I am lacking energy is an understatement. But, I promise, I will update as quickly as I can. As always, please let me know what you think. I received such wonderful feedback from AHS, that I hope this doesn't disappoint!

Also, I would like to put my two cents in for songs that remind me of Twilight - I am obsessed with Possession by Sarah McLachlan - to me it was written for Edward and his love for Bella (and his sometimes possessive/protective nature concerning her). Take a listen (the acoustic version is the best - the end of #12 on Fumbling Towards Ecstasy album)

LINKS FOR HEREAFTER

For anyone that is interested, here is a link that correlates with Chapter 23 in Hereafter - my idea of what their private island is like.

November 2007

This whole creative writing, FanFic thing is completely new to me. My mom gave me Twilight after she read it, thought I would like it since we had both loved the Harry Potter series, I read all three books in six days, shunning my husband, with a toddler running around, reading on my lunch breaks at work. So the obsession began...

I have reread the stories soaking in every word. I agree with Stephanie in that it is important to reread New Moon again, once you know that Edward eventually returns, you can appreciate the wonder that is Jacob Black. Don't get me wrong, I am a hardcore Edward lover, but on the same count, Jacob is a fantastic character.

I have enjoyed writing August Thirteenth so far (sorry for the boring name, couldn't think of anything else). I have found I am able to find Edward's voice much easier than Bella's, thus it's in EPOV. I appreciate all of the reviews. Like the other authors, they keep me motivated to continue the story line and update, will try not to disappoint.

Thanks again for the support.
