Back from Iraq

[Kaak]

Hey, all. I was here in February and I'm back now. I certainly feel as if I've been shipwrecked and I'm afraid the fic I've been trying my hand at reflects that, but I just wanted to stop in, say hello, and tell y'all that I'm around again, reading and writing. I'm glad to see this place still humming along.

KAAK! Welcome back to Dinotopia!

WELCOME BACK!!!!!

We really missed you here and it's great to have you back again.

By the way, did you get my email that I sent? I visited your web site, Skies of Dinotopia, and read some of the stories there that you had written. I sent an email giving a bit of feedback on one of them. I think that you are an excellent writer. Keep it up. Have you let Mr. James Gurney see any of your stories? I think he would be impressed.

HOORAY! Our storyteller has returned! I'm glad you've come back to us safely. I was getting worried about you as I haddn't received any e-mails. Are you back for good, or just on leave?

[Vorchia]

Welcome back... uhhmm... Do you use a different MSN? A while ago someone started talking to me about having been in Iraq and I couldn't figure out who the heck it was and didn't dare to ask either for fear or sounding stupid. Was it you?

[Buttercup]

Welcome back...did you ever get the letter i mailed to you or the birth announcement for my son with the really cute pic? Are you ready to start posting more great stories for us to read!!!!!!!Please say yes!!!!!!

[Aven Bluewing]

Welcome back Kaak, it's good to see you again. We need storytellers around here to keep this place interesting I can't wait to read some of your well-ranked stories for myself, and I hope you can post some new ones, too! ;D

Welcome back! Glad you've made it back safely.

Sorry for the late replies - I've been on vacation, and also avoiding teh internet like the plague. I'm better now!

Rosa, I'm not sure if I got your email or not, but I'll double check. I thought about sending James Gurney some stories once but every time I read my older ones I cringe because I always feel like I could write so much better. Maybe I will, though. Gives me something to strive for.

Buttercup, I did receive your letter! At least, I think I did -- when I received the birth announcement with the pic I was O.o "Who is this?" but I saved it anyway :D I hope things are going well with him, and that he's dribbled all over your Dinotopia books already like a fan-to-be!

Aven and Buttercup, I do have a couple of stories but they'll have to wait until I'm finished with Nanowrimo so I can give them proper attention. 18,500 words on the Nano so far... :D

I'm back for good from Iraq but on leave for thirty days right now. I've been all over the U.S. and Canada on the train so I'm ready to go home and sleep all day.

Vorchia, I definitely haven't been on IM in months. I'm "SpaceJaggy" on AIM and that's it.

Thanks, Vira. *hug* I have to remember to put this link in my shortcuts so I can start coming her obsessively again!

[Vira Redclaw]

Yes! I just started coming back more often myself.
