On the First Day of Christmas...

Merry Christmas to all! The Twelve Days of Christmas at blackpearlsails has officially begun. For my gift to you, I am finally going to finish a story I began back in 2008, Bath Holiday, which is part of my post-CotBP Jack/Elizabeth universe. Crazy busy as I have been these last few weeks, I only have the repeat and update of chapter one (basically the same thing

I second Florencia's comments (and everyone else's, so far)! "Bath Holiday" has always been one of my favourites of your J/E fics, precisely because it's so different and, in a way, more real in terms of the emotional connection between these two characters, so I'm thrilled to see you continue it! I've always loved the way you show Jack's conflicted feelings regarding the loss of his and Elizabeth's child (one that neither had been aware she'd conceived, until she was in the process of losing it).

Regardless of the somewhat dark and angsty theme that initially drew me to this piece and made it one of my favourites, I'm glad you hint at a happy ending to come. Can't wait to see how your wonderful writing takes Jack and Elizabeth (and us!) there! :-)

Thank you so much for reading, and for your kind words. It's a thrill to know you remembered this story, and are looking forward to its completion. I hope to finish it ASAP, though the flu has delayed me a trifle -- or more than a trifle, actually. But soon, for sure!

Merry Christmas! I hope you're feeling better and were able to enjoy the holidays. This was a wonderful treat to come home to after a week of traveling. I'm so glad you've revisited this story, with its lovely imagery and suspense - can't wait to read more chapters ♥

I may post the next one tomorrow, and I'm trying to finish up the last one as we speak -- got the flu last week and my plans for writing went out the window. So glad you liked the first half of the story! Thank you for your kind words.
