"Virtuoso"

Someone (can't remember for sure if it was Venturous or ButMad or someone else) and I were discussing the beautiful "piano" in the Shadow Gallery and pondering how it came to be there. Upon review, I found that it was likely not a piano at all but a harpsichord, and a lovely on at that.

So I began to ponder.

Never let a screenwriter ponder. emoticon

The following Viction moves quickly and is more in line with the kind of writing I will be doing in the future. It may work well for some and not for others. I respect those who disagree with the liberties I take with V's backstory. Like everything else I do, I expect people to either love it or hate it. Moreover, if anyone has questions about the transitions, please let me know. I'm always glad to answer questions.

I was after Leda to give us another decent heist. Instead, I wrote my own:

Without further ado, I give you "Virtuoso".

Again, special thanks to Leda for her continued hospitality.

Re: "Virtuoso"

Thank you for Virtuoso MelindaKitty, and the other two stories of yours I have read. I am much enthralled with your writing, having for the last three nights read one per night. I am still a bit steamy from Act IV - whew!!! So romantically written, the timing was slow and sexy, I couldn't wait for the next sentence!

See, it was so steamy in here, my glasses fogged and I wrote the wrong title! I meant, Act V!

HUZZAH!

Nicely done, m'lady! Love that you included our in-joke. emoticon

I give it 4 V's: emoticon

And a squooble: emoticon

You got the rest of my comments via IM. So here I bow out so someone else can heap praise upon thee.

(Hey, Viv! I just noticed - love the updated avi!)
