Special Anniversary Post

Who would have thought when I started this story a year ago that it would still be going? Not me that's for sure! I had the beginning in my head, knew what I wanted my lead female character to look like, the angst I wanted her to go through and...that was about it. I never wrote out the story, never tried to force it into something it wasn't. See, my process is to take the pictures, edit and then post them up and while I'm looking at them I'm writing the story. Did I intend for Kaylee and Ty to hook up? Sure! But in college! Teenage Ty had another idea in mind though. He came off his house on the hill every day after he and Kaylee met and stalked...I mean visited her. So, I went with it. Did I intend for there to be aliens in the story? Heck no! But when I saw Ty in the store, in 1.11, pointing at the alien cashier with a horrified look on his face I, once again, went with it. And boy am I happy I did.

I know I haven't updated as frequently as I once did but with the plot becoming more complex I want to make sure I gather all the loose ends(the ones that I'm not intentionally leaving hanging that is) and tie them into the story. I've gained readers, I've lost readers, I've made e-friends(and probably e-enemies) but over this past year the one thing that has really kept me going is the constant support. The emails, the comments and just knowing that people are enjoying this story always bring a smile to my face.

So, I was going to do interviews but instead I decided on this. It might be crazy but then we all know that I'm not exactly sane. So, you can ask any question, of any character from RG. ANY character. ANY question! Of course except for: "How's it going to end?" That's something that even they don't know and it gives y'all a chance to get into their head because they're constantly in mine.

This is my thank you to y'all. You guys, both the people I know and the ones that I don't, make writing this much more enjoyable. Here's to a few more yeasr eh?
