Either way, you still need to jump on <a href="http://www.fivechapters.com" rel="nofollow">FiveChapters</a> and start reading, and I'm still going to go track down a copy of Stolar's compilation!<br /><br />Happy Reading! :)Natalie~Coffee and a Book Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369504951819517390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4324469465904961710.post-62230515518769631812010-10-06T11:06:06.325-04:002010-10-06T11:06:06.325-04:00I love this!

I really want to get back into them, and I think this might be the perfect solution.
