I am so happy for you. Your account draws the reader in to feel as if we were there. So such accounts would be purely factual and dryly detailed. Yours, however, are filled with joy and exhilaration. Well, expressed.

This breaks my heart, Sally. Thank you for sharing the story and that wonderful photo with your FanStory family. I am happy for you. The best part to me was when all of your family members were reading your story out loud. They must have been so proud. We are proud of you.

    Dear Pam, thank you for extending my perfectly wonderful day well into my week! I am so honored. Thank you for the stars and kindest comments, too. Yes, she does look so much like me. We have the same initials and many of the same personality traits. She has such a big heart in a tiny body. I felt all my FanStory friends there with me, too. Everyone here is so dear to me and special. Thank you, again. Sending you my best today as always,

Hi Sally,
I'm so happy for you! Congratulations!
It is nice to have some level of success... recognition. I have been writing for many years, but never really chased publication. It takes dedication, perseverance. I usually just write for fun. I've been included in 3 books, but no books of my own. That's good enough for me. I was tickled when Nimbus Publishing asked me (in 2017) for permission to have two of my poem included in Sheree Fitch's book, "Whispers of Mermaids & Wonderful Things". So I do know the excitement you feel. It's awesome.
I'm so proud of you!
Hugs,
Kimbob

    Thank you so much for the wonderful review and kindest compliments, dear KimBob. I had originally started this novella as a three-part short story and it blossomed into a epic novella. I could've kept going, but finally had to give it up and move onto the second book. I found the more I added, the more it came alive. I also added flashbacks to World War II which seem to make the book even more interesting with depth of character. I think for the most part that was the most challenging part of the book for me. I also have an autopsy detailed in the book. It took me several days to write just the one section. I learned so much and thoroughly enjoyed myself in the process. I've really grown as a writer because of it and have more confidence. I've only been writing for a blink in time.

    Your review, stars, and kind words mean so much to me and encourage me to write even more. Thank you, again. :))
