First of all, thank you for still being here, and welcome to the new. Honestly, I wasn't sure you would be - seeing how the last chapter ended, but I'm glad you are.
This last week has been nothing short of overwhelming. I have got over 500 messages, and except for one they have been all positive. Thank you very much.
Next, I'd like to say to that I'm fine. I am touched by your concern, but I really am. I would not have been able to make this story if I weren't. What happened to me, happened 5 years ago. I took all the time needed to heal and came out on the other side as a better dad, friend and person. Also, I'm proud to say that my whole family did as well, and how we all tackled it is nothing short of amazing, given the tragic situation.
I know that putting references to real life in a AVN is borderline, and I was on the fence all the way up until release. I asked for the testers opinions, and sent the Beta to several other devs. They all all encouraged me to do this. Though it was not until the very few days before the release I actually took the final decision to do so, much guided by a conversation I had with Kentyrr and Stoya who also played the beta.
I still do feel bad about putting this chapter out there without having the next one ready. The title of chapter 6 reflects not only on Cece's words to the MC, but from me to you all as well. LoF is all about feelings, mostly good ones, but some bad too. Though, at least now I can say that the bad stuff is behind us, and I'll do my best to give back the good ones.
For progress, I took most of this week off, but started working on Chapter 7 last night. The image at the top is the first one you will see in the next one.
Have a nice weekend, and stay safe out there.
