Well, first trade-commission done, and apparantly it met with approval from the requestee  lazarwolfe, so I'm feeling pretty accomplished right now. Will possibly set up more such trades later on, if anyone is interested in swapping a story for a piece of artwork, a story, or an item of similar interest. Just throwing that out there.

In the meantime, I am working on something else, and while I don't know exactly when I'll be done, it will probably be done a lot sooner then this last work took to accomplish. I know what direction I want to take things, and since I have a fairly good head of steam, I want to hammer out what I can while the inspiration still holds. I'm shooting for a week, two at the most. The reason? A surprise gift for a friend who may be back in town around that time.

But there's no reason that everyone else might not enjoy it as well. I'll let slip a little secret; it involves a situation that most have fantasized about in some regard or another. You'll find out soon enough.
