Omegaverse writers have to ponder the question of what makes a mother in a different way than most. I don’t think of it so much as a gendered term so to me the one that gives birth is the mother and the sperm donor is the father, regardless of gender. That’s the terminology I choose to use in my books. But I have no argument with those who choose differently. There is something that happens to you when you carry a child in your body for nine months that makes this term feel like a hard earned honor. But in real life, we don’t always have a birth mother close by so I’ve also come to believe that a person can never have too many mothers, and whether they adopted you, or you adopt them, they’re precious people who nurture your growth and leave a lasting imprint on you. I’m fortunate to have many amazing adopted mothers in addition to the one who birthed me. And I’m blessed to have grown children now who helped shaped me every bit as much as I did them. Happy Mother’s Day to all those who nurture with the heart of a mother.

your writing is wonderfully romantic. perhaps a world of wishful thinking in how the stories turn out but what i need most right now…maybe forever.  abo is really decent sci-fi!!!

I think Andover House needs a holiday story. I’ve got an omega in mind but how do I bring in another alpha. Is stranded in a snowstorm too cliche?

@widgetwonker Sometimes, the most extraordinary relationships can occur when people meet unexpectedly. There's a song that describes this "The Places You Find Love". I love Siedah Garrett's recording of it. Here are some lines from the song. 
            "And when you least expect it You come upon the places you find love". 
            "In a flash, the feeling can hit you
            After all the times that it's missed you
            Reaching deep inside to find your secret heart
            Yeah, yeah"
            Whatever you write for your Omegas of Andover House, it will be good.

Aw thanks. I’m insanely busy right now but I expect to have a couple days of down time around Thanksgiving and I’m planning to write.

@widgetwonker stranded in a snowstorm is cliche but if handle right is cute. I do believe you can handle that trope and make it fit into the world you have created. The stories you have done are wonderful.

I want to thank @dannygrimes0 for the amazing audiobook narration of the first chapter of The ABO Serum! When they first contacted me to ask permission to use it as practice and to demonstrate their skill, I had no idea what the outcome would be. It’s really fantastic and I can’t wait for the next chapters.

I get a lot of comments about how fast my couples come together. It seems unrealistic to many people, but start asking the happily married for years couples you meet how they got together. The ones who’ve been married 25+ years. The vast majority will tell you they figured it out really quickly. Even if life didn’t allow for them to be married right away, they knew this was their person. I’d say 90% knew within a month of the first time they looked at the other person with romantic interest. 
          
          I met my husband when I was 13 as he was my older brothers friend. Three years later when my brother was out of the country we looked at each other and said maybe there was something more there. Within a month I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him. Three more years later since we couldn’t get married quite that young, we finally tied the knot. 28 years and four grown kids after that and I have never regretted it for a moment. Even when things were difficult, going through them with him was better than going through them alone. I wonder about people who have been together for years but still seem uncertain. Falling in love doesn’t take a long time. Other things take time, but falling in love can happen in an instant.

My parents were engaged in under two weeks after meeting, and married after just under 10 weeks from that date. 47 years together.
