haha---and you had better believe I'll be talking it up like woah until I get there!! ;P
You know what they say...it's hard out here for a pimp...I could have come up with a better reference, but I couldn't think of another pimp song fast enough...
I've noticed that slight rise in membership...I dunno if it was discouraging younger fans, or just making people think we're real sketchy...but no worries about that now.
Quick Thought: Pick up the new issue of Rolling Stone Magazine...there's an illegaly fine spread of Johnny Depp looking kind of Remy-ed out.
Hitting the Pillow...For reals this time

good night, take care, and I'll see if I can find that R/S issue online- I'm a cheapskate- lol. How's that Cross chappie coming along? you get a fic account yet? I"m going to bed too so I'll nag you some more tomorrow- haha! I need to stop editing my posts. I think the problem was you couldn't even search 'gambit and storm group' in the directory. I tried and even surfed in the category it said we were in and couldn't find it. Google couldn't find it! I bet there's an anti-OreO working for yahoo... hehe- conspiracy! Goodnight for real now

Quick and Fast: Some kid at my job (part time summer camp=pocket cash) is selling me his comics for like 10 bucks (because he doesn't know better) I don't know what he has...but if I come across something new I'll scan it.
Ohhh: And I do have the 4 part Gambit series from like '94...not much R/S if I recall...but its here...on the wall...hanging out.

It's no problem to read and review- I like your OreO style and I know the others like your work as well. It funny hearing I have respect in the fic world- i'm been 'Made' LOL! I respect your work too, not to get all mushy on you, you have mastered the art of smooth pace in your stories, I for one tend to drag day by day by day describing in my stories. I'm not quite Hemmingway with it but too close for comfort. Your All In Double Blind has everyone hooked too, if that tells you something

OK! True Romance sneak preview (e.g. chapter 4) is up. I need reviews on what does not make sense, needs more description, etc... before I post it on ff.net.
As usual, Gambit & Storm group gets first taste of it, 3 weeks before the official release. I don't have a beta so any mistakes found would be AWESOME if you can let me know- thanks guys!

Just a little self promotion: my ff.net account (Lady Macbeth_1755) is up and running. So far only "The Ghost of Madame Delphine" and "Amazing Grace" are up and just the first chapter of each. I´ll wait and see if I get a good reaction and post the chapters one by day, while still updating it on the group...Still, if those of you who are reading it already want to drop a little review it would make me happy (and atract other reviewers too, maybe^^) . Account: www.fanfiction.net/~ladymacbeth1755 "Ghost...": www.fanfiction.net/s/3064650/1/'Amazing...": www.fanfiction.net/s/3064740/1/(For some odd reason Amazing Grace is not showing up on my account page...Bastet you have an account, did this ever happened to you?)

ooo! I had errors updating before. Give it about 10 minutes to see if it will show up, just in case it has to get processesed by the server (if you didn't have an error when uploading). I'm going to go check and leave feedback on your account now

yeah, it's difficult to with different styles. It's like having michaelangelo, picasso, and monet in a room trying to agree on a style. each one is an artist in their own right but very different talents. Is the art major the on you're getting an OreO pic from? Oh! And I just added your stories to the Gambit/Storm C2 and left a reveiw for Amazing Grace You are going to ensnare more readers in your writing web. Now, Ace, get your ff account so i can c2 you! (peer pressure!) hehe

If I were Ace I´d put this account up right now...Bastet can be very "compelling" with her arguments...
Ahahaha You made me imagine michaelangelo, picasso, and monet arguing about style^^ Surreal moment...
And yep, he is the fellow...I even asked him if he could make some group pics for us, but he had to say no...His schedule is just too tight and he has a lot of trouble finding time to do anything non college related, so he was all like "I don´t want to promise you guys anything I can´t make"...This particular pic he is making for me was supposed to be a gift for my birthday, october last year...and he only found the time and inspiration to start it yeaterday...Artists ¬¬

i completely understand. just tell him, if he EVER gets the urge, to just doodle something and send it. It won't be expected that way, it will be a suprise I know all about college student life (second hand) when it comes to art. My buddy kelly from highschool went to school for industrial design, and they had him doing 100+ sketches every night, on top of his homework, he burned out half way through 3rd year, it was rough. I would like to go to school for art, but I also have this thing where I don't want to draw 100 skethes a night and turn something I like as a hobby into something I dread doing. even if it is for OreO, I couldn't do that
