Thanks for the questions and comments.

Like C.W. said, when you guest star, you just write yourself into another character's novel. Each player comes up with the title of his or her own novel, and for guest starring you use the title of the player's novel you are appearing in.

You got me on the spelling errors. It is so hard to proofread a long document without putting it down and coming back to them a week later.

I'm guessing nourish could be easily explained by "u" being right next to "i" on the keyboard, but the real answer is I was undone by MS Word. I just did a little experiment a second ago and MS Word automatically spell corrects "noirish" to "nourish". Therefore it clearly wasn't my fault (although I should have caught it in editing)!

I don't have any good excuses for using "expunge" in place of "expound". While a good portion of my brain knows the difference, apparently a small part doesn't and likes to interfere when I am typing.

I apologize for the errors and got a chuckle out of them myself. If that's the biggest criticism so far then I'm in good shape!
