Oh, wow! I finally read your 'one sentence per night' success, and, wow, is it a success! Beautifully written, powerful, both so in character, and all that in second person. I'm in awe!

[feliciacraft]

Hee, thank you so much!

I've found the "write one sentence" philosophy more helpful than expected. Where I would've said, "I don't have time to write right now," I now think, "It's just one sentence. I have time for that." And that's enabled me to write more. Part of this fic was written on public transit, lol, and I was so engrossed I missed my stop. :P

This was absolutely lovely.

Thank you kindly!

I was a little nervous about the unorthodox second person narrative. I'm glad you liked the story! :)

Will you just listen? Don’t ask me when. Instead, ask me how.

Great answer, Buffy! Good to see Spike could bring it out of you in the end. And now keep practicing!

Thanks!

I have my fingers crossed for Buffy that she'll continue to appreciate Spike. :)
