FanStory wrote to A. Louise Robertson: Unaware finished first in the contest "Lonely Poem"
    A. Louise Robertson: This is wonderful news. Thank you to the FanStory community for your support and votes. This poem is based in part on the loneliness the pandemic has inflicted on most of us as we are secluded. But also, as I get older, I do feel less and less visible not only to the world at large, but even to family members who, at times, seem to dismiss or disregard what I'm saying as if I'm too old to have anything worth listening to. -

FanStory wrote to A. Louise Robertson: Your Cross finished first in the contest "mental illness"
    A. Louise Robertson: This such an honor. Thank you for the votes FanStory members, I am always grateful for your support of my poetry and short stories. This particular poem was written in dedication to family members who have suffered and some who still do with mental illness. It is my hope that in my lifetime we can educate our society to appreciate the significance of helping those who are afflicted with this life-altering disease. We simply must stop making judgments when we don't understand the actions of the mentally ill. We must reach out and find them the help that is available, as we would if they were afflicted with any other disease (diabetes, epilepsy, etc.) Please help to get mental illness out of the closet and open for discussion so that understanding and care can be administered to those who are in so much pain. -
