Another Note from Author of Lou's Life

Just a quick note in response to all the awesome comments everyone has given me.
Hi guys!

Let me start by saying THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I so sincerely appreciate all the comments I have gotten on each chapter. I mean WOW!! You all make me feel so good. I swear, if you build up my ego any more, it will be so swollen I won't be able to fit through the door! =)

Anyway the reason I decided to post a note was because I keep getting the same comment over and over from different people, namely for me to hurry and post the next chapter. I just wanted to take a minute to explain why I am so slow in posting.

Lou's Life actually has a bizzarre beginning. Believe it or not, I do not have a home computer. I work in a customer service call center and I am writing this story using Wordpad on my computer in between phone calls. One day I was really bored, I had been sitting there with nothing to do for at least an hour. So I just piled up Wordpad and started typing. I just started telling myself a story to kill time. After I had written the first three chapters, I started thinking that may be I should find a way to put it online and save it. And now, Lou has totally taken on a life of her own and her story is flowing out of my imagination faster than I can type it. A lot of the time I only get to write a few words before I get interrupted by a phone call. As soon as I hang up, I'm back to my Wordpad to try to type a few words before I get interrupted again. Maybe I'll get a computer for Christmas so I can write at home with no interruptions ;=)

In response to another comment that I get quite often about incorrect spelling and grammar. Usually when I'm writing here, in my Wordpad, I'm usually trying to hurry so sometimes I'm not focusing on spelling as hard as I should be. Once I finish a chapter I usually run it through an online word count website and then a spellchecker website before I post it, but sometimes misspelled words still slip through. I don't have an editor or a proof reader, so my writing is kinda raw. If anybody wants to volunteer to help out with proofreading let me know!

Well, that's it for now, I'm gonna go. I left Lou stranded in the woods, naked and alone. I gotta help her find some clothes and then find Quinn. Thanks again for enjoying her story!
