    Chapter 2

    'A very lifelike painting of a charitable organisation', I'm so glad your saying this. I did a lot of research and still fear I'll get it all wrong. Hm...you don't expect me to answer this question, do you? To be honest, I don't know yet. Kinney will get in the way all the time, now that he's here. He's one of those characters... Thank you for your kind words, Peter. While I was answering to your comment, I had an idea for the story, lol. Thanks for that too.

    Chapter 2

    It's always a good way to concentrate on the problems of others to get away from your own, so yes, maybe Elijah's Way will help Morgan. To your other question... Maybe? I'm the one without a cleat plot line, remember? lol Thank you for reading and commenting, Parker!

    Chapter 2

    This is what I meant when I said I don't know where this goes, Kinney was suddenly there, and I guess he will stay. Well, I suffered through a house tour some weeks ago...so many people. Now I know everyone who works there, and my readers know everyone who works for Elijah's Way. Thank you for your comment, Z.

    You think? So many possibilities... I'm so glad you like my writing, dughlas. Praise - a sure way to get me behind my keyboard, lol.

    Prologue

    Ha, no! I need all the kudos I can get. They make me happy and motivate me. So,thank you, Parker! Newbie? I'm going to check out your story A to Z. I've been curious for a while.

    Chapter 1

    This may sound funny, but I had a hard time writing this chapter. I was so sad, I had to stop a few times. Now, with some distance, I'm pleased how well it is received. Thank you, Parker, for your comment. It must be horrible to lose the love of your life.

    Chapter 1

    Thank you, dughlas! Your review makes me feel ten feet tall. Yes, Auden's words do it every time for me, although I read somewhere they were meant to be a parody. That meaning is gone now.

    Chapter 2

    Chapter 2 The cab crawled behind a large excavator, engulfed in a cloud of dust. When he wasn't cursing and slapping the wheel, the driver negotiated his way through our city leader’s latest cleanup project. Buildings with broken windows and graffiti would soon become upmarket condominiums, loft apartments, shops and restaurants - if I believed all those brightly colored sales hoardings around me. In an attempt to re-urbanize the industrial park, the city had sold property for a nominal price.

    Thank you, Def. I think that's an intriguing question. What affects the building of a person? Are we just a mix between outer influences? If we think about those influences, knew them, would we fight them? I don't want to be affected by him, her, this? Would it be bad, if Luis and Tristan influence him? If he decides he like Diarmad, does this automatically mean it isn't by his own free will? Ha, you made me think about my own story, lol.

    Chapter 3

    More background information, very interesting. And I have all the questions the others have, only I can just read on, in the hope for answers, because I've been away on a short trip and missed this chapter.
  11. To get into your ballade, I had to read it loud a few times, and when I had it right, I loved it.

    Flare of Power

    Ha, Mike, you're right. This is much information. Makes us feel with Noel I hope? When I wrote this, more and more question came up and I had to answer them... Thank you for your review! Glad you still want more.
  13. Aditus

    Flare of Power

    Yes! You're spot on. Noel will have problems with this question... Love this: At the same time, how do anyone really know why they are attracted to someone? Or fall in love? Thank you, Puppi!
  14. Aditus

    Flare of Power

    Lol...yes many questions still, but they will be answered, I can promise this at least. We're going at Noel's pace. We get to know what he gets to know, even when it feels slow. Noel learns something new and the next question comes up. And you're right, seeing his grandmother dying was very traumatic for him. We will learn more about this in the next chapter. Thank you so much for your comment, Lit.

    'In special circumstances, we can approach our intended mates earlier, but not by much. ' Thanksgiving isn't that far away from Christmas, so Diarmad was finally allowed to approach Noel. Noel will become eighteen on Christmas. For th rest...next chapters will reveal more. I'm so happy you're this much into the story. Thank you for your wonderful comments, Cannd. They are very much appreciated.

    Well...I guess I did something right then. I'm glad you're intrigued, dugh. Thank you so much for reading and commenting.
  17. The Holly and the Ivy Chapter Three I read the letter again, and then again, carefully folding it each time before putting it back in its envelope, only to pull it out and read it once more. This is crazy! Did they really expect me to believe this? I was to be the future mate…husband…consort…equal to a king of an alien race living among us for centuries? Impossible. I must have hit my head harder than I thought. It was my grandmother's handwriting. A bad joke? A hoax? Hallucination? She had al
  18. Happy Birthday, Sui!

    Chapter 17

    Sui, this was such a great story. I absolutely enjoyed it. It had everything: great characters, an exciting and well crafted story. I was on the edge of my seat at the end, and in the middle and at the start. lol. I couldn't imagine how they could get out of this mess. For some reason I really like Raphael, and if you ever feel like writing about him, I will read it. Thank you for sharing.

    The Letter

    I'm so glad you think this is different! I wanted it to be just that. Noel needs to be special to do the right things and not to freak too much. Thank you for your review, Def. I always love getting you know your thoughts.

    The Letter

    And you laid out the dilemma perfectly. What did I do? Right? Emotions to play with, impossible situations to solve...I'm way over my head, haha. Thank you for your comment, Lit. I'm glad your reading my story and tell me what you think.
  22. Okay, I'm coming over. Somebody help me to get this out of my head. Friend showed it to me yesterday...
  23. You did it! I found this poetry prompt really deserved the word 'challenge'. Quite provokative, Gary! I can rely. Still, we should remember that without the church many beautiful pieces of art wouldn't excist, as in the past only the church and nobles were able to pay the artists. It boils down to the old question: Is art worth the money paid for it, or should it be invested somewhere else and art is pure luxus and waste of money?

    Chapter 2

    I like the little 'side-stories' e.g. the moon colonists, it adds to the atmosphere. Well, Jer is Jer. I assume he is a typical representative for his species? If so, we can't be angry with him, I think. I'm curious what happens next.

    The Letter

    Valid objections which will be explained in the next chapters. Thank you for your thoughtful comment, Cannd! Many questions... they will be answered eventually. I like that you want to know more about this world.
