I will be going home for the next week for Christmas to visit family and friends. As I write on a wonderful MAC G4 desktop, I obviously will not be bringing my current saved stories with me. ducks flying objects In any case, I wanted to let you all know that I have accepted a drabble and one-shot challenge from a friend of mine and will be publishing these during my vacation. Just little bits of short and sweet that I'll have time to work on in between celebrating the holidays and spending time with loved ones. I do hope that you all will take the time to read them as they're posted. I promise so lemony goodness in some of them! And we do all know that I love the hentai! If you would like to know when I start publishing them or would like updates on them, feel free to e-mail me at: I return, I'll be back on Much Need Healing. Believe it or not, we're getting closer and closer to the end. We're a little over half way there now. And to those of you who thought that Kagome was pregnant, good guesses, but sorry to burst your bubbles. She just wanted to get a little more powerful. Also when I return, I'm going to try to get in some more work on The Telling, start posting unforgettable (another Sess/Kag, but one that is much more mysterious and cerebral) and post a bit of a Miroku/Kagome that I've been kicking around for a while now. Don't worry, that one's going to be short, 5 chapters at most and just a chance to write a lot of hot sex.

For those of you who know of and are fans of the amazing ElegantPaws, I am proud to announce that we will be collaborating on a new work in the new year. I won't spill the beans just yet, but it's going to be excellent. If you haven't yet read her work, what are you waiting for? I promise you she'll become a fave author immediately.

And of course look forward to more collaborations between myself and MomoDesu. We seem to never be able to get enough of each other. LOL. I blame YahooIM.

So many stories and so little time. So now I want to thank each and every one of you who leaves a review. I literally check them numerous times a day. They honestly are fuel and without them I wouldn't feel compelled to continue writing. With you and your kind words, I would be lost. Domo Arigato. I can only hope that you continue to enjoy my works and where they lead. May we share many adventures together in the new year!

Long days and pleasant nights!
