I TRY TO RESPOND TO PM'S WITHIN A DAY OR TWO. IF YOU HAVEN'T HEARD FROM ME IN A REASONABLE TIME, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME DIRECTLY AT
FLJ52452 at YAHOO dot COM.
If you wonder why you're on my friends list, it's likely you've participated in one of my rings, rays, boxes or RABCKs. If you'd like to be removed, please contact me. I haven't been very active on the forums because I've been writing, but I do still journal BC books as I finish them, wild release fiction, and always get a thrill when I get an alert that one of my books has been journaled by another.
THANKS!
