This weekend I surpassed over 1,000 followers and I wanted to take a quick second to thank each and every one you. Leaving FanFiction was a scary thing at first. I thought I would lose my entire audience and sharing this story with you is seriously the highlight of my week, each and every week. But it’s actually been great being able to post here, on my own site. So, thank you for coming along with me. Thank you for debates in the reviews and your constant encouragement. I truly hope the end of Stronger, and this series, lives up to your expectations, and I hope, when it’s over, you’ll all continue on with me to the next adventure.
I don’t have a bonus update, I just don’t have the time to turn out chapters the way I used to anymore. BUT, here’s a little teaser for chapter 37, courtesy of Elena Lincoln 😉
I’ll never forget the first time I heard her voice. My husband was gone (again), I’d been drinking, and I was lonely. Solitude has never been my forte, it gives me too much time to think. My head was swimming with alcohol and memories of my lost sister and I needed a distraction. It was late in Cambridge, past the time I expected Christian to have parted ways with his brother for the night, so I picked up my phone and dialed his number, thinking at least I could distract myself with my vibrator and another round with my submissive. My dutiful, obedient, faithful submissive.
“Hello, Christian Grey’s phone.”
Those are the first words Anastasia Steele ever spoke to me, and to say they came as a shock would be grossly understated. Christian had been forbidden to have any form of contact with the opposite sex while he was at Harvard. He was mine after all, and I had no intentions of sharing him. But one week into his very first semester, I’d already caught him breaking the rules, and even over the phone, there was something about this girl that had the hairs standing up on the back of my neck. I knew she was trouble. What I didn’t know was that she would eventually lead to the complete and utter annihilation of everything I’d worked so hard to build.
See you Monday!
xoxo

Wow! Now my anticipation for Monday is even stronger, now. Loved, the teaser! I’m curious if this is what we’ll hear her thinking while she’s in jail or if this will be in the book she supposedly wrote. She really thought of Christian as a piece of property that belonged to her. And Ana as the antagonist that stoled him, and as such is the cause of all her problems. She’s got to hate, hate, hate that Ana had his baby. Looking forward to finding out!

Thank you for sharing your talent. I found you not long ago here after a recommendation from another of your followers and voraciously read the trilogy until I was able to catch up. Also read your first Fifty story and will continue following any HEA Christian and Ana from you.
The bitch troll never knew when to give up. Is there more to expect from her?

Congratulations! You deserved it more than anyone. I have to say that I was extremely sad when you said that Stronger was coming to an end 😔. You know we won’t complain if you decide to write like 30 outtakes, so you know.
Regardless, I’ll be here in the next step. Even when you publish your first book, because if you want, you can make a bestseller (not exaggerating here).
Can’t wait til Monday!
Lots of love,
Andie xx

As I said back in the last chapter posts, CONGRATULATIONS on getting over a THOUSAND followers!!! As great as these three stories have been, the followers will only GROW.
But THANKS for the TEASER!! It makes it CLEAR that Elena DID write this book. AND that she has TARGETED ANA for revenge since it was ANA that took everything away from her!
So she is presenting ANA as the villain of the story. BUT Elena is having to admit through the book that she was at least having an AFFAIR with Christian when he was eighteen. In fact, she COULD admit the affair started earlier, since she can’t be prosecuted for the same crime TWICE, and she got Christian to LIE in the first trial.
Just WOW! So it pretty well MUST be HYDE helping Elena after all, since he has all the publishing contacts. BUT ELENA AND HYDE have made it look like ANA was trying to take down GEH using her OWN laptop. AND WITH LEILA AND HYUN dead, there is no “proof” that Ana did NOT do it!
WOW, Tara!!! NO WONDER your followers gain weekly!!! AND THANKS FOR THE SPOILER!!!!!!! AND for providing such a WONDERFUL site where we can all piece apart the chapters to see what we can see. I have REALLY ENJOYED all the different theories that come out weekly from everyone! And that is how you KNOW how good your writing is when it can get that many people commentating on what they have read!!!!
As always, LOOKING FORWARD TO MONDAY!!!!!!! (Now, if we could ONLY lobby Congress to decree that MONDAY comes more than once a week!)
