Everything I've said in the past? Totally applies. You're an amazing writer who knows how to get right to the heart of your characters and expresses it beautifully.

As for backtagging: trust me, I know how overwhelming it can get, I've been queen of the panicked threaddroppers since February. On the other hand this place thrives on bakctagging, so maybe tossing a few out to try and get the confidence back will help? (Keri said, then firmly reminded herself to take her own advice and marched off to fourth wall).

If nothing else, touch base with people in state of the Taxon and work out some handwaving ♥
