Naw, 60 chapters isn't that bad :P It'll give me something to read while I'm bored in class wait for other things to be updated :)

You wouldn't think that off the bat, but I was actually really intrigued by what Julie did with keeping Claire and Nick apart for so long and Claire was with Jamie and Nick was with Laureen, yet there was obviously feelings there. Of course I'm choosing to take that scenario with my characters being involved with different people and take it a step further into what would happen if the main characters actually gave into those feelings.

And see, I would never know that was inspired by BMS. A lot of people do that. In TV shows and whatnot, it's a common tactic to keep the it couple that everyone wants together apart as long as possible. That's what keeps people interested. Once they get together, you have to find new sources of conflict to keep it interesting; if you just have it be all sunshine and daisies once they're together, it gets really boring after awhile.

LOL Mare, I remember you talking about that Shadow Grim story. I guess that's where they say imitation is the highest form of flattery. And if it's a case where the second story is not well-written and doesn't get finished, well, then, who really cares? What would piss me off is if someone deliberately ripped off a story of mine and then got all kinds of acclaim for it, like more than mine did. In all honestly, that would just BUG the crap out of me!! LOL
