I have always loved this story, Jennie. This and "Trudy" inspired my story "Memories". I'm sure you remember it. I'm just going to have to post it to Fanfiction.net with a BIG thank you to you.
Thanks, Kat. I do remember your story. I also remember you encouraging me to put the rest of what I had added on to "Because I Love You, Goodbye" out there on the 'Net and in the QL-Archive! I should change the initial post on this thread. The story is now archived at Fanfiction.net. I do hope you add "Memories" there, it's a great story, Kat!
It's the first piece of fanfiction, especially backstory, that I ever wrote. I've really not revised it much since then, which is my way of saying I think my writing has improved since then.
