LOL  I guess that shows that it's a subject worth writing about though.

It definitely it  :)
I'm looking forward to reading more from Secrets of the Heart!  I just noticed the new(er?) not sure when you posted it, but clearly I missed it, update!  I'll have to read up when I get back from shopping later!

Thanks!  I just posted them last week... Monday, I think?  No hurry, cause I probably won't have more up for awhile... too much other stuff going on right now, with school getting ready to start.  You're smart for writing ahead and not posting until you have most of it written, like you did with this story.  Then the readers aren't left hanging so long.  I wish I had more willpower LOL.

What was your favorite chapter to write? And do you have any favorite lines that stuck in your head after you wrote them?

I think my favorite chapter -- and probably the most difficult for me to write was Chapter 8 -- the chapter where Mark Lauren's body is brought back to her room after surgery and Mark gets to say goodbye.  I think it's my favorite simply because here's this father who's a hero in my mind, having given the ultimate gift to total strangers by agreeing to donate his daughter's organs, and now he's having to face the reality that she's gone, and he's having to say goobye.  And that to me is insanely powerful.    :'(

My favorite line - from that chapter actually, is when he sang to her for the last time...
His words were soft, his voice not quite perfect, but the intent with which he sang his song was absolutely beautiful.  He held her hand and sang her soul right out of her body and up into the heavens where he hoped that she could hear his voice... where he hoped she knew he loved her.
