Wow. 250 reviews. I never thought I'd see the day. Anyway, I'd decided that, if I hit 250, I'd post another little author's note just to update you on what's going through my head when I write this stuff. First, to answer some questions that might be on some people's minds.
1) Who is Lita going to end up with?
I have no friggin' clue. Honestly. I never begin a story with an actual plot in mind. It just kinda goes on its own. Lita will tell me who she's supposed to be with once she's figured it out for herself. I guess that might sound crazy to some of you, but since most of you are writers, I think you'll understand what I mean when I say that the characters can talk to you. Not audibly, but you often have a fairly good idea of what your characters want and will do. Call it writer's clairvoyance.
2) Will the ECW crew be back?
Most assuredly, yes. The story will never be fully resolved without those guys making some sort of reappearance. It wouldn't make sense. (My Raven muse has been rambling in my head again. "What about me? What about Raven?" "I'll fit you back in there as soon as I can, buddy. But right now, you're on Raw, so just shaddup!")
3) Would you mind if I wrote my own ECW story?
Just because I was one of the only people writing about ECW when I first started this a few months ago, I in no way am sole proprietor of that privelage. ECW belongs to itself and will continue forever. Much thanks to those of you who e-mailed or IMed me to ask if I would mind you writing an ECW story with similar plotlines. I thought that was marvelously considerate, but in no way should anyone feel obligated to do such. The only time I'll get ticked is if someone blatantly rips off my plot. Kinda like how WWE was doing a little while back, but that was obviously just hilarious coincidence. Everyone knows wrestlers don't read fan-fics. ; )
4) How long is this story going to be?
See answer to question number one.
So, that's basically the gist of things. Thanks for those of you who have stuck around even though this story's getting a little nuts. (I myself am a bit intimidated by how much of it is starting to mimic incidents in my real life... Like how I wrote this chapter about Kane coming back right when my best friend, who's been in college halfway across the country, comes back. As in, I got to see him for the first time in months last night. Yep, art imitating life, all right.) If anyone has any questions that weren't answered, contacting me is pretty easy. CourtBarb@aol.com, same name for AIM. (That's an annoying little rhyme.) Of course, there's always the review button as well.
