oh, i have been looking forward to this one ever since you posted the preview of it, darling. and eeek, eeek, eeeek! it makes my stomach flutter! in all the very best ways!

like, oh, really. the entire idea of time stopping? (well, not stopping, you know. but not being able to KNOW?) just completely freaks me out. the chaos! the confusion! the despair! oh, for reals. it's an eery thing to think about.

and valerie? i love her already. she seems independant and strong and smart, but there's a vulnerability there as well.

can't wait to read more gorgeous. ♥ exciting!

Thanks! For some reason, I have a really hard time with the apocalypse -- it's so hard to wrap my brain around it and make it realistic, you know? So I'm so thrilled that you liked it. And Valerie! (Secret: It may never make it into the story, but her middle name is Marie. If you say "Valerie Marie" really fast, it's the best name.)

I'm really glad you like it, and I'm excited to write more! ♥

This is fantastic! So intriguing. I've read heaps of apocalypse fanfic, but it's so good to read some original fiction!

You communicate the confusion, the choas, the frayed nerve-endings involved in the unknown so clearly.

Really, REALLY awesome stuff.

Thank you! The apocalypse is really hard for me, so I'm so happy to hear that it seemed realistic to you.

I'm really glad you enjoyed!! ♥

i like this.

have you ever read timequake, by kurt vonnegut? it's got a similar concept, except that time keeps looping back to a certain point in the past and replaying over and over exactly the same as it happened before, so the same ten years happened over and over for 5 million years.

i'm looking forward to more.

ps, i hope valerie is smart enough to use protection

Thanks.

I haven't read Timequake, but I probably will soon. It sounds good.

ps. Valerie gets screwed over, but not like that.
