Update on Justice

Dec 03, 2013 18:38

I'm not sure how many people are still reading Justice, but since I had said that the new chapter would be published long before now and it obviously hasn't been, I thought I ought to give you some idea of when to expect it. It came back from the betas, but needed some fixing and while I was doing that I got caught in the jaws of a hellish week, ( Read more... )

Yaaaaay more chapters!! And thanks for the update! You're a machine! Even though you're way busier than I am, it looks like you're going to keep rolling out the chapters up through my busy period. Reading your installments will be my reward for working hard and getting things done!

I've been wondering how many people are reading Justice these days too. I really do think there are a ton of people who are but just don't comment. More people like Awieatti need to discover you! I comment because your posts are always look so lonely and I want to encourage you, but it's just soooo against my lurking nature. And I almost never have anything to say other than "yay!" But your posts are always interesting, so it's usually not tooo hard to find something to say : ) Speaking of which, the more I hear about your husband, the more he sounds like a crazy health nut!

Also, I enjoyed your "currents" : D

My husband IS a crazy health nut! You should see the stuff he eats. But he loves working out and being all lean and muscular, so I'm not really complaining. It's mainly because of him that I now eat stuff like quinoa and canned fruit. I'm just not going to allow him to sully my pizza with his healthy ways anymore.

Miki, thank you for fighting your own lurker nature and leaving such nice encouraging comments for me. I truly do appreciate it.

Oh hey, someone remembered me! Am I really sticking out so much? lol :D

Well anyway, I'd love to have a husband like yours someday! Because I'm a crazy health nut too xD Mostly because of my allergies... But hey, I've never tried a gluten-free pizza! Does it really taste that bad?

Oh by the way, YOU are eating FRUIT?! Who are you and what have you done to Brit? :O

Okay, enough with the talking about food - let's get back to Justice... I agree that many people probably just don't comment. I mean, look at your pageviews - you have MANY visitors, and how many of them have ever left a comment? Well what I mean to say is don't worry, you have a huge fanbase that really appreciates your work, even if many of them are too shy to comment.

I'm looking forward to Justice and Dragon Lady and I'm sure many other readers are doing so, too! :) (And wow, Dragon Lady gets written pretty fast!!)

Oh cool, well then I'll take that as a compliment. :)

Have you tried dried fruit yet? You don't have to peel it, it's sweet and not very sticky. I love dried cranberries, for example. Or plums, apples, dates, bananas, mango, pineapple... Well I guess you can practically dry everything, except watermelons xD

Oh dear, what a mean pizza! Poor you, I hope you're feeling better by now. :S
Luckily, I'm fine with beans, peas etc., but there's already enough I have to ban from my diet anyway xD For me, it's wheat (more like gluten in general), pork and cow milk. Too much fat and sugar are a big no-no as well.
It doesn't sound much (because it isn't), but everytime I tell someone about it, they make big eyes and say: "What the hell CAN you eat then?!" And somehow they are right, because most of the "normal" food does indeed consist of these few things. It's kind of sad - there is so much else one can eat, but many people don't even think about alternatives.

So you could say I'm a health nut out of necessity xD

I use soy creamer in my coffee and almond milk for any other milk needs. But when I have a peppermint mocha at Starbucks I have no choice about having cow milk. I hate soy milk, although I don't mind the creamer ( ... )

Hi!

I don't leave comments very much for stories I'm reading but since you're worried about how many are reading. I'm still reading Justice and I can't wait for the next chapter!

I'm still a loyal reader, even if it's been years since I wasn't in the FAKEdom, so pat yourself on the back for that. You are still one of the most awesome writers I know, and I think your talent keeps going up every chapter.

As an omnivore stuck in a city like Austin, I'm starting to roll my eyes at just how much anti-gluten is out there. When my vegan coworker insisted on bringing vegan 'tres leches' cake to work (yeah, do that math), I was nauseated. So I say, revel in your pro-gluteny!

Thank you, Peacewish! *Hugs you*

Alas, I revel in my pro-gluteny all too often. I don't think I could ever completely give it up because crusty French or Italian bread with salted butter and fresh herbs is one of my greatest pleasures. I'm only learning to make gluten-free breads and cakes because of my health-nut husband. Who is now talking about becoming vegetarian. *Sigh*

I'm still a reader who is standing by lurking in the shadows for an update. I heard that most gluten-free stuff aren't so bad in general. Never had it on pizza but I would stay with the regular stuff if it made you sick. XD

Thanks for letting me know you're still reading. Yeah, that gluten-free pizza crust was a wake-up call. I don't mind gluten free breads and waffles etc., although I always think they're less delicious than their wheat counterparts. But they're so expensive that I started to make them myself. At least when I make them myself I know there are no lentils or chick pea flour in them! But one of the most important things about pizza is that it's a dinner I don't have to cook. I have my favorite place and it's only $13 for a two topping extra large pizza from Sunday to Wednesday. They really load on the cheese and the toppings with great generosity of spirit! $13 is so worth it for me. I've decided that from here on in I am not going to try to change my favorite pizzas to allegedly healthier versions.

Of course I am still reading. My favorite Fake fanfic is still going and I'm loving it. Yeah. Healthy foods are expensive. Eating heathy costs an arm and a leg nowadays. I don't even know.
