I think it's a terrible story - far too many moral values for my liking!

Well I agree Lizzy when we look back at our older stories we see errors all over the place and see some improvement In my own stories, much in all fairness due to by friend and editor.
I am still learning and even when I see the improvement I often think that theirs a teacher looking over my shoulders saying "can do much better" wonders if Jessica is free this weekend to do some correction at home.

We talk about looking at our past stories and often cringe at the way the read now and get the "I did not write that, ooo heavens above I did and more to the point I posted it as well". The earth did not open up and swallows us, we are still here.
Those early stories allow us to dip our feet into not only writing also having the courage to post them. If we were to go back and consider reviewing and re writing those stories, would be really wish to do so, its all part of learning process.
I feel that the innocence of those earlier stories would disappear if we rewrote them.

Brief update: I've just posted Chapter 17 of 'Ongoing Inquiries'; there may be something of a delay before Chapter 18 appears as I have rather a lot going on at the moment. It may go some way towards mollifying all you rabid Nick and Abi fans to learn that 'Special Inquiries' has had something of an overhaul*. The story remains unchanged, I've simply adjusted one or two elements, chiefly regarding Abi, that I've never been truly happy with.
(*It may, of course, drive you into spasms of rage...)

Loved chapter 17 Chrissy, and looking forward to chapter 18 when it is ready to post, I have already noticed some amendments and have mentioned some in our chats, and you have indicated you were unhappy with some aspects of Abi and some other areas as well.

...you have indicated you were unhappy with some aspects of Abi... Not as unhappy as Nick is

Nick is not unhappy, he is unsure of himself as he is attracted to a lovely person who wishes to be accepted for who she presents to be a male who prefers to dress as a female.
Her honesty when meeting Nick for the first time was a difficult and brave thing to reveal, we all desire acceptance of who we are, and for that to happen we have to accept ourselves first.

The intellectual aspect of honesty and integrity is worth a lot, but man is a sexual being at the end of the day. Can a person who falls for another person overcome the fundamental incompatibility of their plumbing? Wanting to consummate a relationship is perfectly reasonable. Also, there's that dreadful question that forms part of the wheat-from-chaff sorting process, is this a person that I'd be proud to introduce to my mother? (At least, for my wheat-from-chaff sorting process.) If not, for whatever reason, the relationship would be throttled at birth. Nick's right to have misgivings. Especially since Chris decided to make him such a catch.

Nick may be quite a catch he also requires someone who wishes to do the catching do we not

There is a lot to go through between the two series to catch up, but I will go through it all. I'm liking what I saw so far in Chapter 1.

What form of a rest do you mean Chrissy is that an arrest with one R or two Rs and will it involve handcuffs like Abi implied and Nick did not take her up on her risque side.
