Thanks!
It's slated for a contest--if I can get it done by Feb. 1. I got to scribble fast. I just found out about the dang contest this weekend. I only have 6,500 to 16,500 more words to go (novella length for contest is between 10,000 & 20,000 words). That's a bunch of scribbling. I know what I'm going to be doing on lunch hours.
