Brian, my advice is to ignore this person. I've taken a look at the review in question, and I can see it would be upsetting, but just look at the others. They love your stories, as do I, and so many people over there and here. (I'd also suggest looking at that person's profile - they don't exactly come across well anyway!)

As for Triad - please continue. If you'd like any help, you know I'm here. Not that you need any ... do as Ange suggests, watch some Firefly, take a moment, and it will all fall into place. What you're doing - working on another story - is a good idea too: it really helps!

And believe me, if we all looked for something different to write about each time, we just wouldn't! There's only so much fluff or smut you can write, and in order to get tension you have to have peril, and to get that tension upped to have to have people hurt or threatened.

Triad is great - I love the premise, and look forward to reading more, and whatever else you write in the meantime. You have fans, Brian, and I'm one of them!

Just calm your mind, watch a bit of Firefly (always seems to help for me) and reread what youhave written. Sometimes that can give you a spark or two. Just some suggestions.

looking foward too it:)
