Thanks, Teri and Rose. :)

It would be fun to do CB sometime, Rose, cause we'd all be able to talk, but yeah, it's already been a featured story once, and it's also not done, so I dunno if that would work.  But maybe someday.

It would be since 3 of us visit here often, *nudges Mare* pssssssst lets do past features lol

Technically, CB's not listed as one of the past featured stories anymore either. ;)   LOL jk... well, not about that, but even though it would be fun, I don't think we're ready to discuss CB... maybe if we can finish Season 1... LOL.

to answer the writing question AIL took me a year and 3 months, it's sequel SWIB took me a solid year, KDL almost a year for 3 chapters how sad is that? Lmao just haven't been very inspired to write on that one. Always Something is definitely going to be the best of the series, thanks to my awesome beta readers Mel and Presley. Mel saved my last chapter, honestly without her input it would have totally sucked!

I would love to have one of my stories featured. I'm kind of one of those 'unrecognized authors'... not trying to gain sympathy, just stating a fact.

I think honestly it's hard to decide on whose going to be next but I think it's a great opportunity for stories to get noticed especially ones like Mel's, Mare's, Julie's, Sarah...etc... there's one thing I've always loved about the fan fic community is that we're good about recognizing the good stories, while some can be overrated (won't mention the one i'm thinking of but Mel you know EXACTLY which one I'm talking about) but yeah the good stories with a good plot like UMS, or Broken or any other aforementioned author is definitely deserving of the featured title

Well... of mine, I think I'd have to say Blackmailed or Nothing Gold Can Stay by Louise and I.  For anyone else's, I don't know if it's been featured already or not, but I nominate "Welcome To my Heart" by honey.

If you could pick one of your stories to be featured story of the month, which one would it be and why?

This might help us when it comes time to pick stories to feature from month to month. I really do want to give as many people a chance to be highlighted as possible and since Julilly isn't around and Chaos is MIA, it'll make my life a lot easier. lol

If you would rather mention a story that doesn't belong to you that's perfectly fine as well. Especially if you've already gotten a chance to be featured.

I can only speak for myself when I say what I look for is a story that is almost done with an author who will appreciate being put in this position. For instance if you mention a story that's only 2 chapters long, i'm not going to pick it unless that's all there is to the story. Or if you pick someone who doesn't post here, doesn't respond to their feedback and doesn't seem to appreciate their readers in general, i'll most likely pass on that person. (See Mare's pet peeves lol)

Other than that, go nuts and let me know what you think.

Thanks!  ;)
