Houston, we have lift-off

[speaker_to_customers]

It's been a long time coming, but at last I've updated "It's Got to be Perfect".  Chapter 12, "Back in Black", is up here; or read it from the beginning here.  The "Hell's Bells" chapter.

I know I promised it several days ago, but things didn't quite work out as I expected.  Partly Real Life; there were things my wife wanted me to do while I'm on holiday.  Not that I've done them, it's just that wriggling out of them took up time and energy.

And partly me being distracted by Helga von Nutwimple aka theohara ; who not only writes such brilliant stuff that I waste far too much time reading it, but also has a habit of using ideas that I was just about to use and therefore forcing me to rethink and rewrite.  I do the same to her, she tells me.

Not sure what I'm going to do next; I know the BuffyBot stories are probably the most popular of my fics, and people keep clamouring for another, but I think I'll probably do another chapter of "It's Got to be Perfect" while I'm in the groove.  Definitely no more "Pandora's Boxer" over the next couple of weeks at least.

Thanks to the people who helped me with my research query, especially mommanerd  who was first to reply.  You have won - a mention in my LiveJournal!

Just wanted to tell you I read this whole fic from the beginning last night, and I am hooked! Can't wait for more! Thanks for a great read so far.

Glad you liked it; it's knowing people enjoy it that makes the work of writing it feel worthwhile.
