               Contradictoria---charming dear---not forced in the least, and clever with an O henry ending that made me grin....<BR>
<BR>
   And My dear Gup...<BR>
<BR>
               I would have commented on your recent subs sooner---but they quite literally took my breath away. Wow...i am glad you've found the fortitude to grab a pen, and my heart and gut so soon...you are truly amazing, my dear....<BR>
<BR>
    Kev...  <BR>

               WOwza---this elf must let loose applause---and stop to wipe a tear...nice work, even if it broke my heart to read.<BR>
<BR>
    BK...<BR>
<BR>
               Okay girl...slow down...pace yourself! Proud of you though---write on sister....<BR>

                (giggle)  (snort) Hey BK---there's this big present under the tree...you might need a hand to shake it...and I suggest you remove the ribbon---with your teeth!<BR>
<BR>
     Letting Go is something else again---i sort of bumped it in french...does that count?  And where the heck is Hank?<BR>
I feel guilty writing in French when the Sultan of Sagebrush is not in attendence....<BR>

  Just in case you still check out the Board...thanks so much for the video! I'm way behind on Christmas cards but I'll put yours in the mail tomorrow. I'm still working on "Peeled" (my second screenplay)and I'm brainstorming my third screenplay. I'm going to call it "Jenny's Christ"...it's going to be about a topless dancer who gets "rescued" by a Yuppie guy. It's going to be ironic and violent and gut-wrenching and horrible. I'm sick of road trips, already. <BR>
  I asked Chris for a screenwriter's Bible for Christmas. Any word on "CBB"? I'm entering a competition here in Austin as soon as we get Chris's computer from New York.<BR>
:)Misti<BR>
(I also asked for the "Fargo" screenplay)<BR>
(just saw "Citizen Kane"...Orson Welles is my newest god)<BR>
Merry Chrimbo and hot cocoa with miniature marshmallows<BR>
to all! Next time I submit a poem it'll be as Misti Lake.<BR>

Fine new submissions, ya'll... Don't worry none about me. I know I been scarce in these here parts lately, but I'm workin on something new. It's, uh, percolatin' in my brain... I'll tell you this...poetry is a helluva lot harder than I thought it'd be. And I'll tell you somethin else: if poetry is a big ole wheel, I'm a wheel with the rim blowed clear off. Writer's block is worse than layin down for a nap on a bunch of fire ants. Food for thought or somethin'. Well, a Texas-size happy holidays to ya'll!

   Hey, dude. Still in Nacogdoches? Still sing the praises of Conway Twitty and Freddy Fender? Get with the program. I highly recommend Gram Parsons and Uncle Tupelo. Ha!

To crystal~ Thank you!! i'm realy happy you liked it<BR>
Also thx for taking the time to tell me something about yourself and giving me advice<BR>
I wrote that poem 3 months ago, so everything happend 4 months ago now<BR>
IN the meantime I'm over him<BR>
When I worte the poem that was the first day that I realy felt good again, all of a sudden I had the feeling I didn't care anymore And since that day on it has only gotten beter<BR>
But I do have to admit that there were days when I wasn't that strong and after I saw him and he wouldn't talk to me or it was just to much to be so close to him and remember everything that I just brokedown after that<BR>
I just took 2 steps forward and then that would be 1 step backward, But now I'm totally over it because I'm only improving and there are no setbacks, thank god<BR>
But because everything I had with him was just one mess and we were always breaking up and It was always a battle to forget him that in the end It only took me a month to forget because I allready had 9 months of trying behind me but it never worked<BR>
Just like I said about not going back,lettting go<BR>
I never could, untill then but It also helped that He didn't come back and went on with his new girlfriend<BR>
But in total everything all together was 9 months<BR>
It took me 9 months to realy get over him... a waste of my year because it was one hectic year<BR>
I haven' been on the blender the last few days<BR>
And i'm very busy these days So I don't have the time<BR>
As soon as I do,i'll read some of your work and give some comments OK?<BR>
bye for now<BR>
Niki
