    @parker Thanks for the encouragement! I’m leaning a bit more towards doing it, but I’m still not sure.

    @wordsmith – Your compliment is received with thanks. My best friend calls me Anne because I love the Anne of Green Gables books and I also live in Lothlorien, so I decided to combine the two for my internet name.

    Oh, @brandon-miller, this topic interests you? 😉 I’d be grateful for your advice

    Now, now, @wordsmith, @evelyn, let’s not have trouble on a nice innocent topic. 😛

    @wordsmith – Unrealistic romance. That’s my greatest fear. Because I’m not in love yet, I have no personal experience from which to draw on and I’m afraid that I won’t make it convincing. I have no idea how you think about a guy you’re in love with, how you act, etc. I’ve read several books before with romance subplots that just didn’t feel authentic; too easy-cheesy or problems free. Or there’s too much passion and kissing and never any talking about their relationship, or the reasons they love each other besides ‘she’s pretty’ or ‘he saved my life’, or working through trials together. If I decide to have them fall in love, I want people to believe that they genuinely love about each other and can live the rest of their lives together.
