Nuru! It's great to see you.
Helen, thanks for your welcome. I must admit you sent me into a fit of giggles. My little one was quite curious as to why Mama was chuckling to herself like that.
I'm only aquainted with a couple of the writers you've mentioned,
lmp. However, when I have some time, I hope to check out the others.
I completely support the idea of having some new characters brought it. It might freshen the storyline a bit and keep the "oldies, but goodies" on their toes.
