Does anyone know why Vix_Giovanni deleted all but 2 of her stories and dropped out of sight? Is she perhaps using an alt, and if she is, does anyone know what it is? Solar Ray alerted me, we both tried DM and emailing her, but she's gone completely dark, kinda worrying. Any word, anywhere, please let me know.
 
Can't say anything about why, but she edited her post on the AH Directory thread on 12/31/2020 and left it largely blank.

Her last forum post was July 27th, 2020.
 
I was wondering the same thing. I had noticed she hadn't written or posted anything in a while but I didn't realize it had been that long. Always liked her stories and appreciated her comments.
 
As of (US) Thanksgiving, she’s fine. She just decided to step back from Lit as her real life duties filled her available time/bandwidth. I haven't heard from her since late November, but I think it's probably safe to say this chapter of her life is done for now (at least).

Yes, I heard from her last in the fall and saw she was swamped. Got a little concerned when she went abruptly silent via email, and then her stories disappeared with a black heart.
I hope that's all it is!

I'm glad the answer is that mundane. As much as I'll miss her comments and enjoyed those of her stories I read, I'm just glad it's her choice.


Like Simon, I'd noticed she hadn't posted here in a while, but didn't realize it was quite *that* long.

I too am glad it's something that mundane; she and I used to DM back and forth, recipes, chit-chat, places we both knew, plus the fact she's met my brother in Tribeca, and then the DM's tailed off and before I'd even noticed it we were out of touch. I hope she comes back, I really enjoyed having her around.

Yeah, you two do seem to have a lot in common. Or am I just thinking about the shoes? ;)
 
As long as you can do the chocolate-thing who needs recipes? Priorities, young lady, priorities...

I take chocolate in all forms, except white. Because that stuff ain't chocolate.
Psst - I'm only a few years younger than you (closer to 50 than 45)

In the never to be forgotten words of my tante Clodile, 'Honey-chile, you a young lady 'til you decide you ain't, ain't no-one say so but you', words I live and misbehave by daily...
 
She just updated her profile and said she'll be coming back soon, so that's good news.

I’m sorry I got everyone worried! I’m ok: great, actually—just super busy.... I didn’t realize it’s been *that* long since I’ve been around the forum either 😅!

I haven’t had time for writing since last spring and it was stressing me out, as if I was missing deadlines. So I’m taking a hiatus for a while, until I can catch up. I don’t know how you all balance real life, writing and forum chit-chat—you all are truly talented people, and truly a marvel!!

Russ, Lori, SolarRay: soon as I have time, I’ve got recipes from the SO’s Christmas and NYE menus that I want to share in the restaurant thread, they were that good (holy cow, that boy can throw down!)

AMD: thanks so much for your feedback on my story Parted. I agree with your observations of the dialogue in the DD/lg sex scene and I have some ideas for refining it (I rushed the story to publish for a contest... the “deadline” thing doesn’t work for me).

I won’t be a stranger; I’d miss everyone here too much, and would miss too many of Belle and Lori’s shenanigans 🤣! But tbph, I won’t be around much either, at least until real life slows down. This place isn’t a rabbit hole; it’s a rabbit vortex... Chloe and Simon, maybe there’s a Geek Pride-Sailor Moon story somewhere in that!

Hope everyone’s enjoying 2021! Be well, write well, ttys!

Thanx for the DM, babe, see ya when we see ya, HNY!
 
Vix- I'm so glad it's a happy kind of busy. Hope you have a great year, and we'll see you when we see you. :rose:

A most wise tante. Louisiana perhaps or Cajun?

Definitely Cajun; I have, at last count, roughly 3 million old aunties in Lafayette, Houma, NOLA, Baton Rouge, Dulac, and more'n I know what to do with up and down the Atchafalaya. Still, they mean well, but there's no escaping the fact they're a force of nature, Katrina and Sandy didn't even make them blink...
 
I want to ask, does anyone has copy of Counting Pennies? I have read only first three chapters and now it looks like it's gone forever.
 
She said a while ago that she was planning to put her stories back up later. No idea when.
