                                  MISS!! As a writer I am fully aware of the desire to hurt or kill off characters you don't like. I even regrettably admit to doing that in some of my fan fiction stories. However there is a difference between creativity and plain torture. Let me explain. In my stories if and when I hurt a character their is always a story line purpose involved. I don't just hurt a character and be done with it I involve it in the story. For example in And Together We Shall Fly Once More Joe is in a horrible car crash and nearly dies. But this accident brings the Scanlon family close again and leads to Joe sending Frank to med. school. So while it was dreadful it was story line useful. Now lets look at Chris.  The writers don't give him story lines and when they do they only hurt the character or make the character feel bad. What was the point of Livvie but make Chris look even more slimy. It didn't lead to anything for him, didn't resolve anything for him, certainly didn't play into a bigger story for him. Just made him look bad. Then we have him pouring his heart out to Eve wanting her as his wife and her being the heartless cold fish she is turning him away. This was devastating to Chris but you know as well as I do that story will never go anywhere either. Why because the writers aren't interested in writing for Chris only hurting him and as a writer I can say that is an absolutely disgraceful way to write.

HIT!!!!  Every time I think I couldn't be more impressed with Jay, love Frank anymore, or be anymore pleased with the Frank and Karen pairing I get proven wrong. Jay did absolutely amazing this week as he fought time, the people in the past and himself all in the name of love. You could truly see the desperation, pain, fear and loss in Franks face. When Frank was trapped in that white room it was nerve racking and you could see Franks utter confusion and hopelessness.  Then like a fairy tale come true Karen's voice alone brought him home.  The relief and sheer Joy on Franks face as he ran to Karen and held her tight was overwhelming. The love between Frank and Karen is so real and believable and the end of this story so fairy tale like my heart melted. I love the twist of the princess bringing back the prince from his doomed sleep and I love the fact that the prince just like in the stories will risk it all for his princess. Long live Frank and Karen they are royalty.  

Well that's it for this week folks I hope you liked my rant and rave.  Till next week enjoy PC
Katie :-)
