I was flying across the entire country on Angela's day and did try to post, but I don't see it anywhere here, though. I could blame it on my iPhone, but all who know me shall simply laugh - the blame, I'm sure, sits directly on my technologically challenged shoulders.<br /><br />Just wanted to honor Angela - she's a skilled storyteller - she's the one who managed to get me, the vampire-avoider, to fall in love with a vampire. <br /><br />Elle AmeryElle Ameryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00345078503016217145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6258785838528923778.post-12984162339161442942009-04-25T10:40:00.000-04:002009-04-25T10:40:00.000-04:00I enjoy stories that I can lose myself in, be imme...I enjoy stories that I can lose myself in, be immersed in what I'm reading and feel like I am there as part of the story.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6258785838528923778.post-86433316610713213442009-04-23T09:09:00.000-04:002009-04-23T09:09:00.000-04:00WOW amazing excerpt!!

I do often labor over finding just the right words, however; sometimes it can take me as long as a half an hour, when I'm stuck on a sentence.
