A well written story that develops as it progresses. No clutter and only one 'spag' that was apparent - Shemya is deaf but part way through he reacts to the sound of his name?

Have a great day. Regards Mia

A very well told story! The characters and dialog are believable.

Except for the following nits, it's ready to go:

Change [interest in my cocoa. I direct] to [interest in my cocoa and direct].

Change [All my dogs, who are tied to their doghouses, bark.] to [All my dogs, bark. They are tied to their doghouses.].

Change ["That you, Brook?" a familiar, but not particularly welcome, voice calls. ] to ["That you, Brook?" a voice calls. It is familiar, but not particularly welcome.].

Change [Now it felt good to have Walter to talk with.] to [Now it feels good to have Walter to talk with.].

Complete the quote: ["Tell him I'll bring blueberry cake to the potlatch.].

Change [waifs] to [wafts].

Change [He's so, so ......."] to [He's so, so..."].
