Wow! I just realized that I posted my first story here just a little over a year ago. This has been a very enjoyable experience. What really surprised me is that someone is still reading the old stories and actually voting on them. Thank you whoever you are. I am so happy you are enjoying them.

I am currently working on the third instalment of the Cynthia stories. I am about half way through, but probably won't get it posted until late October. I think this story is quite a bit darker than the previous two. The first part of the first tale was a bit dark, also. Cindy is now ten and starting to grow up a bit. She is very excited about what is happening (first training bra!). The story involves a homeless man who may be suffering from PTSD, and a lot of other things. Cindy and Bobbie are best buds and Maddy lets her opinions be known about several things. The title is "Cynthia and the Dumpster Diver".

Taking a little trip to Tuscany next week, part business and part pleasure. We are meeting my brother and sister and spouses. They have never been to Italy before. Boy are they going to have fun. This will be my fourth time there. Never enough time.

Thanks to everyone. I love you all.
