I figured I'd read Sessions and then continue on with Studio Time. <br />Really looking forward in getting to know your characters and reading what looks to be a wonderfully collaborated piece of work! :)Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04261344314447423273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3192880522798293586.post-78242566758466480312009-10-10T10:57:28.893-07:002009-10-10T10:57:28.893-07:00@the_mctavishams: first of all thanks for stopping...@the_mctavishams: first of all thanks for stopping by and reading! I don't think either of us expects anyone to start at the beginning of this since it is not only lengthy but spans well over 2 years worth of writing. The summaries and bios are definitely a good place to start. I can't speak for SB but my early work tends to make me cringe some when I go back and look at it.<br /><br />Thanks so much for the compliments on the shots. They certainly have improved a lot!thewyndhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09476656359810192923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3192880522798293586.post-90779934781117556502009-10-10T04:28:21.167-07:002009-10-10T04:28:21.167-07:00Hey The_McT !

Thanks so much for taking the time to read and leave us a comment!<br /><br />Well...no, this isn't really the beginning but it's a good place to start. You could check out the bios, they fill in a lot of holes. From this point on, the chapters and the way they interact with the companion stories (which cover the same story lines) are all listed in the Chapter Guide link on the linkbar. <br /><br />Thanks for the compliment on the shots! I think we've improved since we started this back around January of this year. Coming from you, that is a HUGE compliment!!!S.B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15236399168777815648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3192880522798293586.post-16192302910573617432009-10-09T17:19:25.403-07:002009-10-09T17:19:25.403-07:00gahhh i love it!

I imagine that won't go over so well with Beth, huh?<BR/><BR/>But something really needed to be done. They needed to have some distance put between them. It didn't look like Ryan had any intention of resigning. The relationship between them was surely headed in a bad direction. And I really dreaded seeing Coop have to deal with another failed marriage. Hopefully, they can work it all out, without too many bitter feelings.<BR/><BR/>Great writing, Gayl!Colliegirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11598897470670759000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3192880522798293586.post-63165378550486276242009-04-05T18:36:00.000-07:002009-04-05T18:36:00.000-07:00This chapter was fire!!! from the beginning to the...This chapter was fire!!! from the beginning to the end it was just burning anger and frustration!! fantastic writing, I couldn't stop reading, you really capture the frustration and anger of those two men!!!<BR/><BR/>I feel so sorry for Landry, hopefully she can find someone, I doubt it, she seems like the type of woman who only loves one man in her life... unfortunately she chose the wrong man to love... <BR/><BR/>I love Cooper, I really do, but sometimes I agree with Rafe and Ryan, he thinks of everything as his possession....<BR/>I can't wait to find out what Beth thinks of Ryan being fired!!!<BR/><BR/>Wonderful writing as always and lovely shots!!!

Who knows what may have happened but sometimes things are not meant to be, lines get blurred. But Ryan will be there for her and the baby so in that sense he will be there for her.

Landry is very accepting of her fate and very resigned that her love will never be returned. Out of all their stories, Landry's is the most tragic right now. A pending mother, alone in the world with a baby to support and no one to help her. I really feel for her.<BR/><BR/>Once again, you weave an intriguing and strong story filled with colourful characters that seem to jump from the pages like magic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3192880522798293586.post-67305641053220887282009-03-29T17:42:00.000-07:002009-03-29T17:42:00.000-07:00Thank you Veron!

It's one that I loved once upon a time and had no idea who sang it, therefore you forget all about it! So I went and downloaded first thing, lol!<BR/><BR/>Secondly, "She has more important things to care about than an employee."<BR/>Ouch! Poor Ryan. NOT! Never did like him. :D<BR/>Loved that Cooper was sort of giving it to him, letting him know where he stands. Although I do believe Ryan when he says that he's a professional and would never let it go past that. But having your wife care about someone like that is JUST as bad as them cheating, to me!<BR/><BR/>And oh boy, this last conversation is not going to be peaches and cream. <BR/><BR/>Love this new chapter of everyone's lives, can't wait to see where it takes them all.

A lot of fire in him that can calmly flicker or flare up and burn you badly. And so glad you like the blog. SB did all the hard work (colors, etc) I just whined about it...<BR/><BR/>Ryan and Cooper I suspect are not done sparring yet. Hard to say. Thanks for reading and commenting. Always appreciate it!<BR/><BR/>Mao: It was a good cliff hanger of sorts wasn't it? Quite the bomb he dropped. He knows there is something there and had to shut it down. I have no doubt he is confident in his relationship with his wife but things (obviously) can get out of hand. Ryan is right to an extent...Coop does have a thing about what he feels is his. Whether Beth lets it go or reacts, we'll have to wait and see.<BR/><BR/>goodbye-sun: No it won't just slide past her and she will feel horrible about Ryan for many reasons. I think she understands that it is for the best but that doesn't make it much easier. <BR/><BR/>Lachesis: I never expected you or anyone to read all that back story! Two years worth of writing would put anyone off. I am glad that it does make sense though. SB has already started putting a synopsis/summery together so we will try to get that out there...somewhere.

Cooper hired him, Cooper can fire him.<BR/><BR/>Now, not to say Ryan does not appeal, he certainly does, and Beth may deny it, but she feels a pull toward the guy. Who wouldn't. And perhaps Ryan has a point about everything being a possession to Cooper. This was entertaining to see these guys hiss and spit at each other!<BR/>Some bumps in the road ahead, I think!
