Cp1984 (4/1 07:57am) : I had to refresh the page every now and then. I even restarted my phone to see if that would fix the problem, but it didn't.
Cp1984 (4/1 07:54am) : I hope this allowed in the chat. Is anyone experiencing something wrong with the site? I just finished reading a 3 chapter story and on each chapter, letters were falling down like snow. It was like words were becoming unreadable because of so many missing letters.

Dusty (3/31 08:11pm) : Just a few hours left to get all those drabbles and comments in!
Dusty (3/31 04:51pm) :
Corvidae (3/30 03:01am) : Yes! Thank you for your encouragement Dusty, it helped me : )
