There was a few ways I could do that dream sequence and I felt like the way I did it was perfect. I could picture it as I wrote it. Glad you approved. My readers on Wattpad loved it. They did not pick up any references though lol they were all telling Brian he needs to dump Leighanne.

LOL It was perfectly subtle.  If we hadn't had that conversation, I probably wouldn't have made the connection, but I loved you putting in that little Easter egg.

I am glad that it wasn’t obvious because I thought if I did like a straight ripoff of Titanic it wouldn’t fit in with the story and would feel kind of out of place. However, Brian dreaming about being on stage sounded a little more realistic.

Yeah, that would have just seemed cheesy.  Changing it to the stage was a good choice.

Yay for another update!  You're on a roll!

People think it would be fun to be a bird because you could fly. But they forget the negative side, which is the preening.

I can't knock him out so giving him cookies or something to play with helps. If I don't, he won't leave me alone or he wanders off.

Would wandering off be that bad? Especially if you don't need him? ;)
