Hi Jacob,
There is so much intensity and content in this book! You see Stacey continuing to support her son, who she believes is innocent of whatever it is he's been charged with. Even her daughter doesn't support her mother or brother.
In the end, we see her putting herself in her son's position. What a powerful image.
Take care,
Rhonda

Thank you, Rhonda, she will stop at nothing to prove his innocence. I'm pleased that you enjoyed it.
Comment from Darlene BoClair
O like a good mystery. The story now reads like Stacey and her daughter at breakfast are not the best of friends by their conversation. Stacey I believe knows more about killing. I hope to find out in the next chapter to come.

Pale morning sunlight filters through the kitchen window, casting fruit shadows across my kitchen table. What a beautifully ominous way to start a chapter, Jacob.
Stacey is a committed mother who believes her son is innocent. Rebecca, her daughter, wants her mother to leave her dad alone. This is a compelling story, my friend. You are quite the talent.
God bless,
Steve

Comment from Pam Lonsdale
Something that stood out for me: she is holding a box of eggs and a frying pan and a cup - seems like a lot, especially since a pan is usually heavy.
Stacey appears as a bit of a needy, unstable person, so far. She'll have to be a little stronger if she wants to help her son.
Thanks for sharing, Jacob.

Jacob,
Great chapter of your book. The reader feels like they are sitting on the sidelines watching it unfold. The emotions are raw and come of the page making the reader have sympathy for the characters.
Well done my friend

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Tracey is a good mother and can't see her son going through this on his own as if no one cares. I think most mums are like that. Rebecca is trying to make her mother see it her way, and is also trying to make her mother stop going to her ex-husbands home. There is lots going on in this chapter. Well done, I really enjoyed your chapter. :)) Sandra xx

You've hit the ground running here, Jacob, and I can see why you wanted to put more flesh on the characters, particularly Stacey and elaborate on the back story. All nicely done in faultless prose. Well done! Debbie

Your story pulls me right into the emotions of the moment. I felt every bit of frustration and love in your character's actions. I really appreciate the way you captured the internal conflict - especially in the scene with Rebecca. The tension between wanting to support Joshua and the pain of the past is so well done. Keep up the fantastic work!

Comment from Begin Again
I think -- no, I know -- I would be a Stacey..... a tiger fighting for her cub, regardless of what anyone else said or did. I know people who have been able to turn their backs, shut off their feelings, but that wouldn't be me. I felt everyone of her tears, her pains and her thoughts. A very tense chapter, Jacob.
Smiles, Carol
