As one raised in Louisiana, I love your characters already, yah!

Yeah, I wrote that several years ago. If I'd written it more recently, I'd have used a few mors strategic phonetic spelling, like "dere" instead of "there." :-) I spent some time in Acadia (Lafayette, Eunnice, etc.) and loved it.

I was a little annoyed with myself on Chapter 3. (I wrote it weveral years ago.) But I think it gets better again soon. :-)

What did u tell me? "Don't sell yourself or your story short" something like that? Don't sell your past work short either. Its good. And it was the truest as you could tell it at the time! But yea, it's tough to look at old stuff and not be like that. I know I sure do it sometimes.

No, I never sell my work short, and I always let my work stand as a marker of my skill level at the time. My comment was just a comment. Very different to see a story one chapter at a time.
