  1. I read Love on the Rocks. And the song mentioned there just fits so perfectly right now...
  2. Even if you aren't interested in soccer per se, there are some aspects you might like anyway. Without taking sides here are two links: 54 Reasons the German World Cup Team might actually be the hottest World Cup Team. Or the Italians? Well they are history now, but still... Feel free to add.

    Thank you for your comment Suvitar. I'm always happy to hear from my readers, especially when they're glad. There will be a story about Mark but because I'm not so good at writing regularly atm, I'll finish the story before I start publishing, so that there won't be any long pauses between the chapters.

    Chapter 1

    Well I think your last minute productions are the best. Very nice story, made me feel good, just what I needed today. Thank you. There should be some more Pauls around, the world would be better.
  5. Now we know the family a bit more. I'm curious how the cousins will fit in. I guess we're still in the 'building the backgound phase' of the story and I have to say it is very promising. Next one please.

    Ha, ha. Okay, let me think about this some more. It won't be an anthology story, but he will get his own, promise. Thank you. *hug*
  7. Thank you Sly! Glad you like it. Yep kinda hid this one, but it got featured. Maybe I should have put it into the series, book 1 1/2 or something.

    Good to have you back, I missed you too. Sounds like a lot of stress with a great view.
  9. I had the honor to read this story early and you already know how much I loved it. The characters are well developed, everything felt real and authentic. I don't know much about American history, farms and communities back then (and now), but I loved to read and learn about it. Well done Cole!
  10. Ha, thank you Ron. Yeah I have to admit I unintentional hid this little piece. I'm glad you found it, and yes it is important, their relationship develops to more and it can be seen here.

    For me it's always the greatest praise when my readers tell me my characters feel authentic and real; that they can relate. Thank you Percy. I'm glad you liked the whole series.

    Thank you. I love writing about people struggling with their feelings or with what life throws at them. I'm glad it worked for you.

    Thanks Sly. Do you want another chapter/story? About Mark maybe?

    Thank you Wayne. Of course you noticed that everyone had an appearance; it's the last part after all. Well maybe Mark gets something to say some time in the future, but that will be his own thing. So glad you loved it.

    Thank you Cole. I had to put a little twist into the last part, couldn't make it too easy for those two. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

    Thank you for your lovely comment, Ron. I always struggle with the endings of my stories and I was almost too late because of that. Reading that it worked for you and you liked how it ended is really motivating. So, should I give Mark his own story?
  17. *rubs hands* Finally time to read.

    Zugzwang Zugzwang (German for "compulsion to move", pronounced [ˈtsuːktsvaŋ]) is a situation found in chess and other games, where one player is put at a disadvantage because he must make a move when he would prefer to pass and not move. The fact that the player is compelled to move means that his position will become significantly weaker. Zugzwang most often occurs in the endgame when the number of pieces, and so the number of possible moves, is reduced, and the exact move chosen is often crit
  19. Plan A, Plan B, contingency Plan C… That is all well and good when planning a dinner party, but it has never been Paul's style outside his job. Direct approach is his default plan, and he isn't going to change that now.

    Trying to be Me

    Your message was clear as daylight, I can relate. Personally I like my poems messy, flighty, with turns and breaks, and words dancing around so I have to think 'Huh?' but that is just me. I am not a poet. I don't follow my own rules either.
  22. That was what first came in to my mind too. I don't mind chewing gum as long as they don't talk much, don't chew open-mouthed or sit in my classroom. Oh and eating with chewing gum...yuck.

    Mark

    Just found this review, sorry for answering so late.I never thought it could happen when I wrote 'The Wardrobe' but somehow I feel sorry for him too. He sneaked in and manged to become my favorite character actually. I'd like to give him his own multi-chapter story someday. For now it's just a poem. Thank you for your review Wayne.
  24. Hi Hanna! Welcome.
  25. That was a lot of routine work Abel had to do, but that is only realistic. And yes, it worked. Take after old Angus? *is curious*
