springrain: Hi, my subscription here on Fan Story runs out in a little while, and I will not renew it. I have had a wonderful time here, and met a lot of great and kind people; hopefully, my writing in English has improved, at least to some extent:)

I am very thankful for all the reviews and guiding that I have received through the years, and all the discerning and helpful advises that came with it.

It has also been an honor, a gift and a pleasure to read hundreds and hundreds of well-written, exciting and thought-provoking poems and stories; these readings have deepened my love for and understanding of the English language. I will continue to write on a Swedish writing site, both in Swedish and English.

Much love, light and all the best to all of you here on Fan Story.
Springrain, Olof


springrain: Today, it is 15 years since the abominable terrorist attacks against World Trade Center in New York, Pentagon, and Shankville, Pa. that cost 2.983 human lives.
It was an attack, not only on the people present at those places, but also on the United States and its people; its democracy, society, culture and institutions.
Today, we honor the memory of those who died or got wounded in the attacks, and their families.
    The Death: "...but also on the United States and its people; its democracy, society, culture and institutions."

    And everyone thought it's about people around the world who were there, and not just a nosy nation! -


springrain: My thoughts are with the victims and their families, of the cruel and abominable terrorist attack in Orlando, and with the British Member of Parliament, Jo Cox and her family; and with the victims of terror all over the world.
All decent people have to stand up together to defend humane values and human rights.


springrain: Hi My FanStory friends! I will take a pause from writing and reviewing for around a half, up to one year; are sketching on some ideas and themes regarding an essay; or mabye some essays for a book.
Might do a bit of reviewing though!
Many hugs and love, Olof
