Hi everyone, I would have replied sooner but for some reason no notifications have been emailing through to tell me anyone was posting here. I only checked because I thought it was weird that no one was posting anything - I though maybe everyone had left the website.
Anyway, it was nice to be missed. I just needed a break re: family commitments, but I promise to leave this forum topic up (even if I'm not writing for a bit) so we can keep in touch. You can also message me through the AFF forum's message function.
Regarding this story, it's one that I've wanted to write properly for a while. Unfortunately no animal stuff planned in this one, but since animal stuff has been in most of my other stories, I'll think you'll survive. Regarding any suggestions for this story, I'd recommend you wait until the first 6 chapters are all posted, so you get a feel for where the story is going.
Anyhow, I just posted Chapter 2, and I'll be posting a new chapter every Thursday/Friday for the next 4 weeks. Then there'll be a bit of a pause while I write the next lot of chapters, to be posted towards the end of the year.
