I like how you used the topic. And yes, someone who keeps promising that someday will come...the delay can be an answer.

Thanks! I see John as a single-minded Indiana Jones-type, probably not even realizing he's already married, to his work.

Ah, the ultimate Dear John letter - but it could be said his to her was long before this one.

[beldarzfixon]

For obvious reasons, I usually avoid naming a character "John" but the opportunity to make a literal "Dear John" letter was too good to pass up.

Very nice.

Thank you!

A beautiful take!! Well done!

Thanks!

Oh, I like this. (I'm a sucker for anything epistolary, anyway!)

[beldarzfixon]

Thanks. I was having concerns whether something like this would work

(Of course, now I want to make mine a letter, too, dammit.)
