Hey Michael!
I loved the follow up to the car crashing into the bar episode. It felt, based on the bar scenes though, that an earthquake had happened or something Still, it was a great read. My favorite part was with Emily and James ... and we only had one scene with them!

At the bar, I was hoping we'd found out that someone did die in the rumble. Bentley would have been a good start, just because he hasn't really had a huge impacting storyline yet. So when Greta moved the final piece of wood and it wasn't Bentley, I actually was some what upset Still, it was great to see Greta, Daphne and Penelope really interact as a family.

I also really enjoyed the Diem scene, another character that hasn't been featured as often as some of the others. Putting the pieces together that Abby may not be Caitlyn's daughter was fantastic. I was saying before that it just seemed a little too easy -- I'm hoping Diem is on to something!

Lastly, I really enjoyed the talk with Marina and Ian. The scenes really showed a lot more insight to Ian and Natalie, and their relationship. It's so interesting to see that Natalie is really using everyone in her life, including her brother. I totally sense that Marina is going to push Ian to reveal himself to the family, which will of course really add fuel to the flames in her rivalry with Natalie!

Fantastic episode Michael -- I can't wait for the next one!

Thanks for the feedback Dallas, there is so much to touch up on with the accident!!! When I was developing this story I realized half-way through that it looked more like a natural disaster scene than an actual car accident. Which is kind of a little on the dramatic side. Haha. But I'm glad it has still caught on with you!

There are dynamics that I am trying to create between a few of the characters but I cannot tell you which ones or it will ruin a very important twist. So I shall keep my mouth shut.

Just wait until Natalie finds out about Ian and Marina's talk, she is going to need to do damage control. That is if anyone can actually find her! [; Look for Ryan to make a return soon to shake things up!

As for Diem, She is a character that I believe is very true to herself so it is so hard to write story for her. For now at least. Diem is smarter than most people around her and cunning as ever. We will get to see more of her personality further into the Danielle storyline.

Like I said before, now that Marina and Ian are getting closer and starting to find out where they stand with one another look for Ryan to make a come back. Things will get interesting.

When I first introduced Penelope, she really didn't have anything going for her. She was mostly there to inhance the history behind the Wilkinson family as when I wrote the "history" book of Stone Creek, the Wilkinson's were the KEY family. Although now I focus more on the Thurlow's and Sutton's. Look for more fluffing of this family as the way they pull together is very different from the Thurlow's and Sutton's.
