I'm a shameless lurker. I've thought about commenting many a time before this, but this story contains the impetus that shakes me from my lurk-hole. I feel I must ask, Are you my ex-girlfriend?
I know all about the magic of reading something you'd previously thought unique to you, and connecting to humanity via the written word, but your Ginny is just too creepy. Is it possible that my ex-girlfriend has infiltrated your fiction in order to speak to me? I strongly urge you to look over your shoulder once in a while whilst writing.
I do, however, congratulate you on yet another wonderful story, and achieving the admirable feat of unsettling your reader. Not for making your story seem "real", as six years of rigorous training in French Literature have assured me that this, much like "happiness" and "pleasant endings", is Bull Shit, but for thoroughly disturbing your reader and making her crave more.
Thank you for sharing your gift. I sincerely hope that 2008 will be a happy and productive year for you.
