I love the photo for this chapter. It takes me back to 'that' time.

OH wow, what an ending to this chapter. I loved it. This had a great flow to it. I enjoyed the journey with these characters. Great writing!

I really liked the scene where her hand went through Joe's and then she giggled at being able to walk through the fence. :-) Helps to keep my mind in that place of time travel. Good job. :-)

Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted

The tensions and anxieties of the characters gnaws throughout the dialogue here, as joe has to deal with getting kicked out of the house, his angry wife, and at the end, a confrontation with a demon of some kind. The suspense at the end is a good place to leave it to get people to read the next installment. How the time traveler can help has not been revealed. So we have to keep reading to find out how this all connects together in time estory

Another great chapter, Sandra. I can imagine Joe's distress at seeing someone with red eyes back in those days, and you built up to that recollection beautifully. I can't wait to see how you handle the situation concerning Sir John, and Joe's family's imminent home loss. Hopefully, Veronica will be able to help him, and being invisible will come in handy!
Hugs from France,
Alexis xxx

Hi Sandra, your lovely story continues to hold the reader's interest. I've said it before, you write in such a natural way that the supernatural seems so plausible.
In my opinion, walking through the stile, is a great, natural sounding, and well timed addition to the story.

The ladder incident, is an interesting element; and what is 'Devil's spawn?' sounds creepy. I'll just have to wait and see. Great writing there my friend.

-Very nice image.
-A very good chapter, Sandra.
-Ver. has a good conversation
with Daveth to begin.
-He seems to pick things
up quickly, as he wants to
travel in the future to see Ann.
-The rest of the story is told
very well through the conversation
between Ver. and Joe.
-It is at the end of this discussion
that we learn what it is that Joe saw.
-It is told very dramatically so
we can feel the tension building.
-It will be interesting to see what
happens next!

    Hi, Pam, thank you so much, my dear friend. Where would I be without you? The 6 stars are always such a pleasure to see, but your words mean so much more. The next part will be very.... LOL, Big hugs and much love, my dear friend. :) Sandra xxxxx

    You are very welcome and deserving of the stars and review, Sandra. I am sure the next part will be intriguing, as you have set us up well, my friend. With time travel back, anything is possible!

Hello Sandra,
Ah, now we are back to where the heart of the story lies
in the past, both serious and humorous.
I would imagine Joe did think he had seen the spawn of evil,
What he saw puts him in danger, but at the same time,
it gives him leverage against the temper of Sir John.
He could, after all, reveal what he'd seen if he were to be kicked out of his home.
But I suspect a better solution lies in the mission church and the albino there
who is the opposite of the spawn of evil.
Fear of the unknown is at the root of prejudice.

This is an excellent chapter, both the conversation with Daveth about future travel,
Joe trying the explain to an unbelieving Rosie (it seems Joe isn't as good a story teller as Sandra), and the revelation of what Joe saw.

The scene at the stile was perfect, though I'm not sure how many people in the US will know what a stile is.

Love that picture, I'm ready to move in!

Great chapter, my friend
RS

    I think we should be able to award stars for reviewers who write lovely reviews and not just for finding the nits. Thank you so much, Robert, this was lovely and the 6 stars are the icing on the cake. I'll go and tidy up the cottage for you, it's a bit dusty at the moment, lol! Don't you have 'stiles' in America? We have them in farms and woodlands for walkers. I'm really pleased you enjoyed this part, the next is going to be ... fun? Hmmm. Big hugs, my friend. :) Sandra xxxx

Sorry I've been MIA here lately and only have a couple of hours a week to review.

Seems I've missed a chapter with Daveth and Sir John, and might have to go back some time to read it - I enjoy this story and dislike missing any chapters.

In any case I enjoyed this one and found nothing to correct or comment on. Hope it's not because I read it too fast!

Best,
Aki

I don't know how you do it, but your story just keeps getting better. Needless to say, if there were any nits, I didn't see them. You are such a good writer.
