I really love reading your work and because I do think it is so good - I just want to say that one thing that I do think detracts from it's impact. Your use of "baby" endearment seems like it does not go with your Buffy character or with the line.

i love this. I also love Dawn in this.

great story, just now got caught up on it....i'm not big on angst, but spikespetslayer said i had to read it....she had me in a headlock and everything...rofl....seriously it really is a great story, very emotional and well written, very thought out and pretty much just pulls you into the story!

Things seem to be coming along nicely. Congrats on making Judges Choice at the VK Awards! I may not get to read and review again til after Christmas 'cause I'll be out of town, but I'm not abandoning this one. I'll justhave lots to catch up on when I get back. -Lisa
