@jane-maree @shannon @emily @winter-rose @ingridrd @lifeofkatie Thanks. I’m working on a revision. I’ll get back to you sooner or later. 😀

@Ethryndal awww I’m so glad to know you through the forum. <3 <3 *sends you a kangaroo*

@dragongeek lol. Our editor in chief is using the same concept. http://josiahdegraaf.com/the-chronicles-of-morshan/
