Here is one from an idea from Erin.  She also came up with the name when I sent her the draft, and so I made the adjustments.  Please give me some feedback on this story.

It's interesting that you chose to tell the story from the point of view of the trucker instead of Lane/Lana. So much of Lana's emergence/transition remains a mystery. It's as if we're trying to envison an entire room by looking through a keyhole. Perhaps you might want to enter the room itself...but I'm okay with these glimpses you prefer to offer the reader. Lana seems like a character worth another short story at a further stage in her metamorphosis.

Hi John. Yes, I was telling this story in snatches of time - his perception of the changes taking place, and his growing adoration. I call it "the besotted observer" POV. I am glad that you have a view of Lana as a character from my paucity of words, but I think that she is interesting - brought up on a farm she is strong enough to take on her parents and her school, after a little encouragement from her driver.
