hey, william--
thanks so much for your feedback on my mystery chapter. i know my pov is all over the place, and the short choppy scenes is discombobulating--i need to spend some time on this! you've given me some hugely helpful suggestions, and i'll take advantage of them asap. in short, you rock.
(i'm off to read your chapter!)

Congrats on placing in the contest

okay, here's a freaky moment: i'm at work, answer the phone, and some guy named william craig asks me to find a book for him. i know!!! weird, huh? because you're in texas, right? and i'm not?
.....okay, maybe not so weird. but kinda fun.

William, I have seen R rated movies that were even worse. Why don't you read my works and tell Charlotte that I did not mean to pester her, I just wanted her to read a work of mine? And let us just forget thi whole thing behind us, because for one scribophile is a communtity for authors meeting in a friendly way, not in a manner that we start to hate each other. Please read my works, that is all I ask for.

Sir, I have a question: Why can't I read your work because I am underage. I find that very rude. I was just asking Charlotte to read some of my works, she told me she had a bad day and I told her not to feel so down. That was it - sorry for any confusing thinsg I may have said. And don't send another mail to staff, I did not mean to pester her like that. So please forgive me, I just wanted someone to read my works today.

Hey! I look forward to reading more of your works and if you wanna read some of mine, just click my name, scroll from my profile to latest works and you should read any one that you want! Enjoy

okay, and i just noticed you've added me to your list of regulars. woohoo!!
(please don't take me off because i just said 'woohoo'.)

hey, william--
thanks for your fabulous critique! you've given me several solid suggestions for improvement when i return for edits, and of course i LOVE the strokes. (yes, i'm needy. i'm also an emoticon girl. )
muchas gracias, william (bill?)!
