Sure I was freaked out but so relieved it ended happily :o)

Absolutely wonderful story. Please, please don't let it be your last.

I adore your writing and this is a hell of a swan song. I'll miss your original and unique style - my only hope is that you'll keep writing. Like I've said before - original fic is calling to you. Really - it's screaming. Good Luck! And send me a PM or e-mail when you are published so I can go buy it. ;)

Spike, you rock! This was a wonderful trip to have partaken and I look forward to many more. Great job.

Great story idea! You wrote that very well and not confusing at all. I loved it.

That was absolutely amazing. It really was. This is definitely going on my favourites list, and I think that it was a perfect final story (obviously I'd rather it wasn't your last, but if it has to be, then it's a hell of a way to go!)

If I were you I would be so proud of this story.

What an incredible and bizarre and unique story... I just loved it! (and for once I didn't cry!)

I'm hoping that the detail about this being your last CSI fanfic was simply part of this story and not an actual fact. You write these characters so very well, and it would be a real shame if you have nothing more to share on them. If that is the case, however, then I thank you for the great stories you have given us thus far, and will miss your truly original ideas.

Great job, Spike.

I don't know if you intend this or not, but there's often a condescending tone in your stories that walks that fine line of turning out quality writing and insulting your reader. This was interesting, as far as fanfiction goes, but I couldn't help feeling mocked as a reader. I felt like you were trying to tell us something here, and I'm left thinking I didn't really figure it out. Are those of us who write fanfiction silly? Wasting our time? Are those of us who read it too dumb to recognize quality work? Just a few thoughts I had after reading your story. Good luck to you, as a writer. I have to say I liked you better when you DID enjoy writing these characters-without using them as pawns for your elaborate swan song.

Wow, that was AMAZING! Very Zen. And how I wish that

YOU wrote for the show!

Oh, that was so good. *Shivers* The whole interaction between Sara and the Writer was excellent. Cool stuff.

One of the most original fics I've read. Very interesting. Great job!
