Man, I swear! Is it 2 weeks or 2 months that take place between one chapter and the next? Is that enough time for such-and-such to happen? But If it takes that long/little time, then what the heck is someone else doing in the meantime. Nope, it’s gotta be… but wait, if it takes that long, then it’s still summer/winter and it’ll be hot/cold. That doesn’t work. Have I introduced this character before? Is it feasible that they haven’t thought about…? ARUGH!!
Did I make this secondary character’s eyes blue? Did I even mention eyes? Forget it, I’m cutting this character s/he doesn’t do anything really.
OMG, please tell me that you did not just go on for a whole page about some piece of history that has nothing to do with anything!
Um, you do realize that it’s been a few chapters since there’s been any sex whatsoever? You do recall that this is “erotic” romance, yes?
**points at a particular character** don’t you EVEN start with me!
You got it, folks, I’m heading into the home stretch on DE5. This is an accomplishment, surely, but now I have to put it in front of people. And you know what that means?
FRICKIN’ DETAILS!!
Hey Jet, did you know that he started out the scene sitting and then he sits down?
I don’t get why this guy is so bad/good. This is the first time I saw him (well, yeah, duh! I cut the scene that set that up **rolls eyes**)
You do realize it’d take longer to travel from point A to point B, right? And how did they do it?
Can’t we know more about this person?
But, that doesn’t make sense? How could he…? When this other guy…? And didn’t you say in some obscure passage back in book one that…?
O_O!
I mean, really, O_O!! And people tell me these books should be longer so I can include–you guessed it–more detail. ACK! That’d kill me!!

We only ask to make the story better. Honest….
Course the shoe does go on the other foot sometimes - then I whine too. :)

I still think you are awesome. I can not wait for your next book in any series. I have wrote my little story and got stuck. I can not get my character out of the bedroom. You are one of my favorite writers. I know that you will be fine.
