/me peeps carefully back into the folder, wondering if it's safe to return... 
ACK! No no no no no!! You can't leave me hanging like this! It's not fair. My god, why?!?
it's official. You took the word "evil" to a whole new level.
What do you mean the END! It is not allowed to end like this! I am going on strike! Picketing. NO NO NO NO END! Bad writer, very bad, get back here!
You're an evil, evil woman, Wendy, to leave us here!
Have a bitter tastes in my mouth. Get back here!
No no no no no
Crazy Wendy.
This is wrong.
You know what is coming next, and you're not going to tell us?
Did you really think we'd let you leave this like this?
I know where Canada is; I can swim; I have the determination and the motivation to get there; and most importantly I have one of these little fellows with me:
Now, there are a few interesting guesses in here. Some are wildly off the mark, but others are... surprisingly close to what I've been working on. And, no, I have no intention of distinguishing between the two! Just remember that if things are revealed in Finding Freedom which resemble any suggestions made in this folder, I
had already written those bits!
So I'm not going to comment specifically on any of the suggestions and discussion here. I'll just say, as always, that I really appreciate all your kind feedback, even if you are yelling at me rather more than usual.
Thank you very much indeed, all of you!
And finally...
Where is 'Finding Freedom'?
Did you see the semi-colons? I think I used them correctly. They are a bribe to get you to post Finding Freedom soon. Like in the next half hour? Ok, I'll let you get away with tomorrow...
Helga! Yes, I noticed. Very good.
I want the sequel and I want it now. If now isn't possible, I want it soon! (About definiton of soon see above).
I hope your definition of "soon" and my definition of "soon" are the same.
I'm begging you not to keep us hanging here too long ... it's TORTURE!!!!!!!!
Aww!! Well, as I've told a few people on IRC, I always intended to start posting Finding Freedom within the week. I want it all up by the end of the year. But I'm still writing the story, and also still very dependent on my wonderful, but overworked, beta-readers, Kaethel and Yvonne. I don't dare post anything without their approval! So they need time and space to read and comment. And I want to state again my huge indebtedness to both of them - you are amazing and invaluable and I'd be lost without you. Thank you!
And, yes, Finding Freedom coming up very soon!
Wendy
