Miss you too! We had writing club and I was like, where are all my peoples? Luckily, we've got six members already, and it grew over time last year...

We - Herself, myself, and kombinant, will all be at the festival on our town's side... around 7:30ish to watch the fireworks. By the huge house with all the windows. If you get this you should stop by.

I'll try and bring some tea and hippie things. :)

Seriously...I've been trying to get my writing (yes, fanfic) back up...and it'd be great to have a close circle to post to before throwing it up on the big archive sites. Help?
