Blind Date, the restaurant

by Wolfyred

Alya and Nino set up Mari and Adrien on a 'Blind Date' (blindfolded). They don't have to tell each other their names. However they recognize each others voice. They continue the date anyway, agreeing not to see who the other is. Before they can leave Alya and Nino come up and unknowingly 'reveal' their identities.

14. Chapter 14 - Author Notes

Hi Everyone!

This is a bonus piece. I meant to post this yesterday but didn't have time until now.

Blind Date the restaurant, is done. 12 actual chapters with an Epilogue.

Right now I'd like to do some author notes.

First I'd like to thank my husband for being a proofreader, and my daughter for being a proofreader and my cover artist. They were both a source of inspiration to keep going and they listened to me every time I squeed over all the comments I received.

Next I'd like to thank everyone who... favourited, followed, kudoed, subscribed, bookmarked or liked my work. You all gave me the omph to make sure I didn't miss any updates with Blind Date.

My writing style was ingrained into me back in high school in the 80's. Back then if you wanted something published you had to have the whole thing done. So I did. The story had gone through 2 full drafts before the version I started releasing every week. This does not mean that I didn't make changes as I went. I added up some lines, reworded sections and generally made sure my chapter was really ready before posting the next one. I took the few comments to heart that were about changes to my writing but didn't feel that all of them should affect the story.

I'm sorry if I didn't get to respond to everyone's comments. I tried a lot at first but come April my work started to ramp up and I didn't have all the free time that I used to have. Also I started writing for Adrinette April 2019. Around the 20th real life got in the way. But I am going to keep going on it. Hopefully by mid May I'll have it done and I'll have some Marichat May under my belt.

One comment that I want to address is that there was 2 guests (may have been the same) that said my chapters should be longer. Then I had someone remark that one of my chapters (which was long) was too long. I learned way back when that a chapter should be exactaly as long as needed to get the main idea or point across. Don't add or subtract to fit a certain length.

Anyway, thank you all for reading my story, enjoying it and possibly some of you passing it along to others. I do plan to write more and I'll probably post multi chapter stories after finishing the whole story again. Depends on the length.

Thanks for riding the ride!
