Happy new year, everyone!

Wait, what? Hey, I’d read it. Given the second part and the people skills problem, maybe she was supposed to learn about friendship. I’m now picturing Kizzy writing a “Dear Creator” letter after every one of these adventures a la “Dear Princess Celestia...” Of course, with Shannon as a friend, those letters are going to get hilariously NSFW very quickly. It does sound more like the idea of punishment via reincarnation (as you said, though, reincarnation traditionally allows the possibility of redemption in your new life). I suppose I wasn’t looking at it that way partly because of my own religious background, and partly due to the fact that the story elements place it pretty squarely in Judeo-Christian territory. Still, you’re not the first person to combine elements from those religions with Buddhist or Hindu concepts. Bernice is probably fine, all told. She was shot in the head, which is a pretty instantaneous form of death (and she seemed not to have noticed what was happening to her body just beforehand), and given that she died assaulting a demon in an attempt to help an archangel, I don’t think there’s much doubt where she ended up. Honestly, the most unpleasant thing to happen to her after that was likely spending the next three quarters of a century to 100 trillion years becoming increasingly alarmed at not seeing the angel she was trying to help. So what you’re saying is that this is a...*dons sunglasses* ...loose canon. I apologize for nothing.

Hey, all. Sorry for the prolonged silence; I’ve been traveling for the holidays and had limited internet access. What’s more, Microsoft went and changed Hotmail so that I can’t access it from my phone anymore; thus, I can only check my Hotmail on my laptop, which I means that I won’t always be getting alerts about new reviews in a timely fashion anymore. Anyway, on to news. As SWP1 observed, chapter 3 of “The More, the Merrier” is posted, and at ~8000 words, it’s packed with orgiastic goodness. Probably the next thing I’ll finish will be chapter 8 of “Country Summer.” I’m also going to try to finish one of my one-shot stories to make room on the List of 20 for – and I’ll preface this with “God help me” – a She-Ra and the Princesses of Power story. SWP1, with regard to your comments about the TMTM chapter: I don’t know about the next chapter, but we’ll probably see it at least once more before the story ends. In the initial draft of the chapter, I kept having Midas think of Gretchen as a “bitch” in the sense of a female dog. But Jomahawk, who is betaing this story, thought the repeated use of “bitch” came across as too crass. I thought he had a point, so I changed “bitch” to “female” in Midas’ thoughts. Adyson still used “bitch” in her dialogue, of course. There are only a couple of other choices besides Stacy, so odds are good that you can guess. Sally is an innocent (up until now, at least), so I wanted to capture that in the story. Believe it or not, that scene was purely the result of Adyson and Dr. Hirano being the only characters left after I decided what to do with everyone else. I was forced to get creative and figure out why those two would pair up, and I had to go through a few drafts of the scene before I was happy with it (because I was refining the nature of their interaction with each draft), but I had fun doing it. Hope you had a great Christmas, and Happy New Year!

From Nick on December 21, 2018 My apologies for the slowness of this reply. I’ve been travelling for the holidays and just haven’t had a chance. Thank you! (I think.) I hope there's no real-world version of this pageant, but one never knows. I figured Lynn would be okay with it as long as (1) she was able to personally ensure Lola and Lana's safety (which she was), and (2) there was the possibility that Lynn would get to kick someone in the face. Thanks! In writing fics like these, I've had to come up with a lot of ways in which normally unacceptable behavior can become acceptable, and one of them is taking on an alternate persona like Lincoln did. I felt like the story didn't really need that. The periodic revelations about the nature of the contest and Lincoln's responsibilities seemed like twists enough. I wrote this story after finishing two incest-intensive ones -- "Whoops" and "The Loud House After Dark." I wanted to set incest aside this time around. (Of course, there's more of it coming, as in my upcoming story "Enter the Sandboy.") Not planning a sequel at this point, but more Loud House stories are in the works. Thanks for the review!

Steve, Liz, Carrie, little Angie hope that you all are having a very Merry Christmas. Would be nice to know how all of you are doing.
