Hey gryph and co., 'tis me again.

I have to say that Offsides' and my own opinions over lap. I don't know
about the masochism, but you definitely don't pull any punches when it
comes to making sure your readers can feel for the characters. When I
learned about what happened to Kaitlyn, I wanted to find the scumbag that
did it and throttle him! When that impulse couldn't be satisied, I did
something else; I cried for her.

Gryph, I haven't cried in almost ten years. I just want you all to know
how rare and powerful a talent you have to be to do that.
