August 2010

If you read this is because you've read any of my stories and I want to leave this thank you note. Thanks to all of you that have drop a line or two in the reviews. As I writer in this site, reviews mean a lot. If you don't review, that's all right too. I hope that my stories had entertained you all the same. I also thank you for putting me on your alerts, favorite authors, favorite stories... Wow, I'm so glad you have welcomed these stories so nicely.

If someone would've told me five months ago that I would be writing fanfics, I would've laughed. I never wrote a story on my life until this year. I enjoyed the process so much that I don't think I want to stop any time soon.

The readers have been so nice and enthusiastic. I'm really motivated to go on and now I have two more Hogan's Heroes stories in the making. My main interest is Newkirk, so you know more or less what to expect. I'm still shuffling titles though and that's all I am going to say by now. I hope they will match your expectations.

;) see you soon...

September 2010

My forth story is in. Thank you for checking it out.

Although I have ideas of my own, I'm open to suggestions. So, Newkirk's fans, feel free to PM me if you have any idea of what to do with our British hero. The only thing I would not take into consideration is slashing. I don't write them and/or read them. :)

October 2010

The haunting of Peter Newkirk is almost over. I wrote the story with the personal purpose of gathering two of my favorite TV characters together, Newkirk and Spike. Although most Buffy fans don't know anything about Newkirk and most Hogan's Heroes fans don't know anything about Spike, the outcome has been quite satisfactory.

Thank you for reading, reviewing, putting the story in the alerts and favorites. :)

December 2010

Layers of reality is almost over. I've been writing this story in collaboration with Marie1964. It's been a real fun to put our minds together for this adventure. For the reviews I guess people are enjoying it as well. If you haven't read it yet, I recommended. You might like it too. It seems a little complicated at first, but it's not, really. ;)

January 2011

I just published my first MFU story. It's very much about where I come from, a mix of actual events and fiction. A very interesting experiment that I hope, will please the MFU fans.

April 2011

It's been almost a year since I published my first story. I have to thank everyone who has taken time to visit my stories, review them and keep them as favorites. I'm especially grateful with Hogan's Heroes fandom for their enthusiasm and encouragement. The Papa Bear Awards 2010 are here and I'm very proud to see that all my stories were nominated and two of them received some recognition. Thank you, voters!

Time flies! It's been a year since I updated my profile with the PB Awards 2010 and PBA 2011 are here already!

Thank you for your votes, thank you for reading! Thank you all who have been working so hard to promote, build and carry on with such a wonderful event. It's great to receive validation for your work.

Richard Dawson is gone. We'll miss the man, his quick mind and his capacity for making us laugh. He has been my inspiration through every story about Newkirk and hopefully, he will be for years to come.
