for all your feedback regarding my scribbling. Clearly Gaby is most peoples favourite series but there were plenty of votes for Nena and Peaches too. I will start something new this week but don't hold your breath, it could be a few weeks before anything is ready for release.
On a slight tangent, as the website is getting a complete makeover is there anything that people would like to see incorporated?

Relieved
Having read your "the end" post on your website I am relieved that you will be continuing to write.
Yes Gaby is my favourite out of your work, although I like Nena I feel that as Gaby has covered such a long period of time (both real and in the story) that I have watched her grow up and become family sort of. As family I am always keen to see how things are going with her and eagerly anticipate the next instalment of her story. For me Gaby is easily the best storyline that I have read in this whole genre of writing so please keep it up.
As for what should go on the website, I really enjoyed the fanfics although it is a shame there is little new stuff. Also I personally would like to see more pictures of your trips to Germany as they bring back good memories of the 5 years I spent there in the 80's. I was particularly happy to see you included the Mohne See dam in one of your stories, I spent many happy summer weekends on the shores and swimming in the lake in 82 & 83.
Anyway I am glad that things seem to be pulling back together and thanks for the great stories.
Perhaps a bit clearer navigation?
There are times when navigating the current incarnation of maddybell.com that it can be less than intuitive to return easily to previous pages or access some of the other sub-sites without returning to the opening page. Maybe a standardized navigation menu across the top of all interlinked pages (gabyzone, gaby (english,) gaby (german,) main site, etc?)
It's not that big a deal though. Overall your site's simple enough in design that there isn't a whole lot that gets in the way of its functionality, so anything else I were to recommend would move from helpful to personal aesthetic tastes :P

Sometimes,
I do find my self getting lost navigating there.
The following may have been fixed, but, ... I has encountered a few stories without links to successive chapters. You had to know how to find them. I can't remember which that was a while back.
