Well written and a good read. I have come to enjoy Rabbit and Virge Gates. This book could be a best seller.

Good job. One of the very few books that stand out on this site.

    If you don't get published, it won't be because of the story. Rabbit and Virge if handled right is not just a book, it could be a movie.

    There's a certain pathos in this hat you may want to extract: The sunset years of an aging man seen by a young boy....

This is a very interesting and light story. It is penned down in a lucid manner and the dialogues were very engaging. ENjoyed reading it.

Superb- what an atmospheric piece of writing! And more than that a tale of real friendship between the old and the young'going to hurt to say goodbye'. I can almost smell the Sir Walter Raleigh pipe smoke'.The acknowledgement of the gift of friendship between two entirely different generations' Made my summer a heap better'.
I simply loved it.

Another entertaining chapter. It was funny, sweet and easy to read. Was this the final chapter or will there be more to come? I hope so.

    Thank you very much for reading. If you do get a chance to circle back, chapter one is also a prologue that sets the scene. Regards, Bill

Very sweet story with natural dialogue with a bit of vernacular thrown in. I imagine it would have been very tempting to throw in a bit more, but I thought it was perfect. The scene setting was exquisite, the mood was lovely. Just all around a perfect story. :)

This is just wholesome lay good. I could taste Grandmas breakfast could see wrinkles on wrinkles as Virge concentrated.. Loved the name Rabbit.
My Grandparents lived with us and there is a special special bond between the young and the old because they pay attention to your young self , completely with no recriminations .
Loved it
God bless

The story just flow nicely.

I like the relationship between Rabbit and Virge of how two people with such a big age gap could be best of friends. It somehow made me felt nostalgic.

And of course, the most important thing here is that this fine art here offers a really good advice that I think all the youngsters nowadays should apply in their lives. Try your best in doing anything.

It is fun and relaxing reading this during leisure time.

Thanks a lot for sharing this. :)
