    Thanks, Terry! This brought back that feeling I had after writing the healing scene. There was so much left to the story--I knew that--but this chapter felt like a real accomplishment, like I had somehow made it, and that I could do this. Of course this was long before I posted Morningstar. I had many chapters after this under my belt before I was confident I was ready to post. I love that you are seeing those new details. I often refer to writing as 'crafting' and 'weaving' a story, and for me that's exactly what it is. I like when readers absorb the story... and that nothing is 'in their face'. Cheers, my friend.

    Couldn't get on site for a while. How's everyone doing? I had a nice long walk and did some tree pruning, and oh yeah, I wrote another 2100 words for a new story. Talked to a friend from Toronto for a while and caught up with all the gossip. Covid has really screwed up everyone's social life, and there is a big new wave of it happening again... and monkeypox is making the rounds. I think I'm going to watch more of season three of Locke and Key tonight. Have a great night, all!

    You have to be fast around here. I'll try to find a clean shaven one soon.

    Since having covid, all I do is make typos. Almost every word has to be fixed, and a lot of them have the right letters in a completely mixed up order. I thought I was improving but now I'm doubting it. The Lodge is the center of Morningstar, a prosperous business revolving around this unusual but close knit community. It needed to be imposing, and solid. Happy to hear you could picture it so well. Cheers and thanks.

    Lol. Me too. And yes, please remain careful of spoilers. I would hate to see the story ruined for a reader... this is a mystery after all. I liked the challenge of describing the way Kellar's healing works in his conversation with Tobyn. We can see some of it is a mystery even to Kellar. Happy reading, buddy.

    And it's fun for me to read your comments on this reread. We are learning lot's more about these characters through their interactions, always the best way in my writing experience. Yes, Tobyn was weary, but meeting Kellar has given him new life... new hope. Cheers!

    I enjoyed writing that part of this chapter very much. We see how resilient Kellar has been in the last three years. Glad you can picture his little world so well, and we can see he's ready for something or someone more in his life. I could feel his loneliness when Tobyn enters the picture. Thanks and cheers, Terry.

    Thank you, Terry. Kellar's character is what makes this story work, in my opinion. I like very much what you say about the Morningstar world. It has been said by other readers that this is a human story as much as a shifter story. Glad you like the descriptions. Enjoy the journey, buddy.

    Hey, Terry! Yeah, there are a lot of seeds planted throughout this story. It was fun to piece it all together, and I enjoy hearing from people who reread, about finding new details within the chapters. So happy you are on the repeat train. Cheers! Gary.

    This photo is actually an eruption of Mount Etna, Sicily... it is not a Phoenix...

    Got another project started last night. It seems a little ambitious and overwhelming, but I'll see where it goes.

    In every country. ... especially Canada.

    Hi, Tink! I'm doing better. I haven't talked about it much, but I'm suffering from 'foggy brain' after covid. Concentrating, typing, and remembering the simplest things has been hard. So, I am very happy I was able to write a story for the upcoming anthology. I'm not sure yet it is good enough. My foggy brain is trying to decide . I also wrote two poems for the anthology, so I'm feeling encouraged.
