Thank you for your post
I've been at this sight for a short time but I'm beginning to realize that your words are true.
Still, it's reassuring to hear it from a veteran of FS
I wish you the best and hope to hear from you again.

    I think once I have taken a bit of a break I will return and have a fresh slant on my writing again.

    There are so many gifted writers on this site and I know you will get a good deal of wonderful feedback on your work.

    The beat to you, as well.

Five stars for this message from you as you depart, leaving a bare spot on this site. I don't know you, but I'm certain that many others do, assuring that you will be missed.

    Thank you for these lovely words. I do hope to one day return to FS and have new things to write about. For now a break is needed.

    I will, however, truly miss those gifted writers I have come to know on the site.

    Best of luck to you in your writing journey.

    Thank you so much for your lovely parting thoughts.

    One day, when I feel the well is sufficiently full again, I am sure I will be back.

    Best to you in your time here and with your writing endeavors.

    Thanks. I have always enjoyed and greatly appreciated your reviews of my work.

    My writing well is just dry for now, but no doubt I will return at some point with a new slant on things. In the meantime I did not want to hang around and rehash what I have covered already.

    Best of luck to you too!

I almost feel guilty reviewing this. It's beautiful and I thank you. I don't know your work, but based on these words I'm sure it's worthwhile. Wish you the best.

    The well has run dry for me. It is time for a break. I don't know if I will write here again or not, but for now I'm not.

    Thank you for your review and comments, I greatly appreciate both.

The very best of everything to you.
I have just returned to FN after a three month break.
This is a solid write that was crafted and fashioned with wisdom and great care.
It is a fitting exit and many will enjoy your creative work.

Best of luck to you in all that you do. I am hoping within the next year to publish a book on living with epilepsy. I am like you, I feel so grateful to the people here at fanstory. Best of luck to you in life, Shirley

    Well, leave it to you to send me off with something so clever as the Sound of Music so long farewell song. It is, by the way, a favorite of mine.

    Take care my funny and quirky friend. I will miss your take on things that I wrote.

    "Quirky"? I resemble that remark...please stay in touch if you find work. I'm tapped out. Dennis
