I genuinely appreciate feedback and advice. I firmly believe that a writer can't better their writing without it. I probably would have dumped way more than I did, had this not been on the public forums or if my BPD hadn't been acting up lately. I sometimes feel like we're all missing out on some of the darker inner dialog, but I do enjoy the lighter side of this story. I will say though, that Nick in particular, is way darker than what I'm writing for this story. So I apologize if I made you uncomfortable, that was not my true goal. My goal is to water his cranky ass down and have some fun! I'm more of a cat person rofl
