To have you express a preference really means a lot to me. It's a rather scary prospect (for me) to write a sequel, wanting to capture the tone and feel of the first part, and hoping like hell to carry it off. So when you say you love this one most of all, yeah, it means I did it right. The interesting thing is that I didn't set out to project anything for John, I just wanted him to be stern and strict, and then I realized I was going to need motivation, even if that motivation never got discussed out loud, because otherwise, John would just come across as an abusive a-hole and not much else. And he's far too complex a character for that sort of treatment!
That it made you cry is a very lovely compliment, so thank you for that! And yes, I do plan to continue on with this one, when real life isn't getting in the way.
