Glad I found this little gem of a book before too many chapters were released. This is so creative and enjoyable. Definitely has the makings of a sci fi classic. Keep up the great work, kind sir.

Very good story, what's next, I think the characters in this story are good, strong and easy to read. After reading things all day that's important.

Wow, that was a great chapter. Very funny too. I really enjoyed reading that. Keep up the great work. I don't like chip buddies because it doesn't sound good. Did you actually know telepathy is real? Believe it or not, I can do telepathy, but it's not quite like what Laura said listening is like. Usually, it's like a computer in someone's mind and their thoughts pop up on the screen. I'm getting training for that. It's not easy to do, but I'm working on it. I am a better receiver than sender. Well, great job and have a good day. Rachel

    Thank you. I'm glad you liked it, and forgive me for the artistic licence in describing Laura's version of telepathy

raising the ante from a raspberry Danish to lunch - that was a gamble! LOL Raspberry Danish sounds pretty good to me! :-)
We say putter around - you Brits say potter?? You are a strange people :-D
This whole trained "listening" thing is a great premise - and now it has a whole ethical philosophy to go with it that is most fascinating
good humor in the dialogue and intriguing science fiction

Veddy, veddy, interesting. Yes, that read well. I didn't know that's what it was called but I actually saw a guy make himself one at the restaurant about a year ago. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I whispered to my friend."There's a guy with a death wish. His arteries are snapping shut as he eats."
Good read. I enjoyed this one.

    Oops, thanks for the spag. Glad you liked it. I must admit to the very occasional chip butty, but never in a restaurant.
