I'm really glad that you finally start to post this, and I'm sure, one don't even need to know TBAA to enjoy it.
And yes, I do remember those phone calls and the excitement that, with your creativity and talent, turned into this great result.
And to those who haven't read the story yet...you're really in for a ride...it's not only a beautiful and deep story, it also has a few very interesting challenges and situations to overcome and then there is also...but I don't want to tell too much

...just wait and enjoy.
