Welcome:D
Covid… financially screwed me but otherwise everybody is mostly okay.

Yay!
For the being around more. Not the hell year!

Happy Birthday!

Wow, like 12 years since ya first got thinking about it… Long ol’ time. Great job on following though and getting it done! I’ll get me review done now
Fantastic story!

I’d meant to pick up some tongs, but instead handed stuff out with a ladle as I froze my butt off outside. (Though in fairness, the ladle was also good for smacking hands when people tried to reach into the bowl.) Though most kids on the side street stop before they get to our buildings… for various reasons.
Anyway, if 2021 continues like 2020 then next year the kids will be in camouflaged hazmat suits and combat gear when they come to your door demanding water, canned goods, and all the toilet paper they used on your house in years past.

We had almost 200 trick-or-treaters. I attribute this to (a) Halloween falling on a Saturday, (b) excellent weather, and (c) lots of my neighbors devising clever ways to hand out candy safely. (For my part, I built a cardboard candy-slide and dispensed the treats from my porch.)
 

I got 15 people this year. there was a kid dressed up as the ‘stay puft’ from ghostbusters! i froze my butt of but it was worth it

We didn’t get a single trick or treater here. Our local infection rate is around World War Z levels tho so...

10k words is still a very respectable length for a chapter.  No wonder it has taken you  time to get the ending written. An obvious plus side of more chapters is also that you get more reviews...

yes they do. good news guys. i got my meds now and they only cost me $10!!! i am soo happy. i still want to get the dath peircing just in case

Ok, so after a suggestion from JayDee, and checking what the word count of the resulting chapters would be...I think I may split WitS Chapter 11 into 11 and 12.  JayDee pointed out a natural spot to make the split, and each resulting chapter would be a little over 10,000 words long.  There is, simply put, a lot that happens here, and splitting it one last time might allow for readers not to become numb to the action.

I hope they work for you. migraines suck

Have read it.
No spoilers, but FUCKING AWESOME.
 

Weeks? Hell, I’ve been waiting since like 2008 :p I haven’t read it yet, I’ve been just rolling my halloween story in glitter, came here and saw this! Fucking A! I will be emailing you with all my thoughts on it tomorrow I promise. Gonna have to read it through at least twice
I just want to say again, thank you for making an absolute work of art out of those throwaway characters of mine, and for sharing with us this wonderful action packed, sexy and funny story that hasn’t had anywhere near the credit and readership it should have done. You’re a goddamn literary genius.

Sounds like it will be a looooog weekend for us waiting for the conclusion. :-)

I just got released from hospital today after 5.5 long grueling days. The bad news is I’m not fully recovered. I still have a bit of pneumonia in my lungs and am a little run down. The good news is that my doctors felt confidant to take me all the way off O2. Meaning that as long as I’m taking it easy my O2 lung saturation is sufficient to keep me going! Now I just need to rest and recover a bit more, build my strength back up and everything should work out. I do feel better, so that is good. (Much better than I felt going into hospital), I’m hoping now with  couple more weeks to recover I can get back to relative normality in my life… I’ll continue to keep you guys posted but I want to thank everyone here again who was pulling for me while I’ve been sick. It really does mean the world to me!

Thank you, everyone. You all are my AFF family, and I truly appreciate knowing you’re all here.  
 

Really sorry to hear this. You’ve nothing to apologise for, I hope they’re able to keep her comfortable and things improve.

Ah, I suddenly have a guess as to what “slet” means.

All I’ll say is when you’re wanting to pick up a Dutch translation of Pippi Longstocking for a Dutch friend’s kids birthday, don’t believe the person who tells you to go into the bookshop and ask for Pijpslet.
