Thank you for reading this story. It took a long time to unwind, but I felt happy for Andy and Zander when I typed the last period. And thank you for your kind and generous comments.

Oh, now the Prince can be ambidextrous!

Oh, this is going to be good. At least, it has the earmarks of that.

Cool start! Like it!

Forgotten: a Villanelle
Parker Owens commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in Forgotten: a Villanelle
I am glad you were moved. Ironic that I wear grey rather often in the fall and winter months.... -
Pride Around The World
Parker Owens commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in Pride Around The World
And now, even long after I should have responded to you, dear brother, I wave that flag. For pride, for love, for support - as a beacon of hope. -
I am glad you were inspired. And if you felt tired afterwards, then I accurately conveyed what was happening in my brain and in my being present. Far better to write than take a video. Thanks for being patient. I am so glad you took time to read and comment.
-
Thank you, dear friend. These moments needed description, begged for something better than forgetting them as quickly as possible. And I am sorry to have been so slow to respond. We can thank AC ( @AC Benus ) for his help in making this form take shape.
-
Glad your interest was engaged here. And I hope it was worth the read!
-
You make some excellent points here. I am very happy you are bringing them out, because this is precisely why I wanted to post this story. Who is redeemable here? And what kind of lives are these? Can they find something different? You read very minutely here, and I am delighted you have done so. Thank you.

No, the internet never ever goes away. About the only thing that such images can to is fade in the minds of watchers, who get bored with the old, and crave the new. I am sure the main character must understand everything you've said. It must bite him hard in the conscience. Thanks for reading so carefully and acutely.
-
Of course, it remains to be seen what our main character will do. In the large picture, you're probably right, but for the immediate future, he may have some muddling around and mind sorting to do. Many thanks for reading, and for your patience.
-
That's a fascinating story. Thank you for writing it out for us. No. Two wrongs do not make much of anything right.

A few things might have tipped Marc off to the change in the main character. For one thing, his appearance - ratty and disheveled, like he's been living out of his car - must be way off. And again, there may be some subtle change in body stance and body language that Marc might pick up. As for Lee, Marc's other half appears to be genuinely compassionate and blindly kind. It is possible that Lee's insistent innocence is something that endears him to Marc. But your point is well taken. Perhaps some of Lee's compassion has rubbed off on Marc. Thanks for your patience in this. Your questions are very good ones.

I am glad you have been feeling these emotions: they are the same as the ones I felt in writing this story. I hope also that you find the story sufficiently intriguing to continue. I am sorry that I have been very slow to respond. It has been a crazy year, and a number of comments slipped past me. For that, I apologize.
-
These are excellent questions. Is he ready to change? Does he realize what he has done, or could still do? I am glad the story is sufficiently thought provoking to you. Thanks for being patient while I found time to comment. Glad you kept reading.
-
I think his first instinct and first hope is to hide as well as possible, and for as long as it's can be managed. This wasn't half as unexpected for you as it was for our main character! Thanks for your patience and kindness in commenting.
-
Thank you. It is heartbreaking to go by this spot, especially in that cold, bleak time of year when the first snows begin to fall. They never thought their names would be remembered this way. You have been very kind in being patient. I seem to have missed a number of comments this crazy summer.
-
Never saw it that way, but you have a very good point. Thank you for reading this story, and for your patience. I seem to have missed a number of comments this crazy summer.

Change in the Weather
Parker Owens commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in Change in the Weather
You were so nice to take time to comment on these older poems. Autumn is all about change in temperature, air, light, rain...so much change. Our bodies notice it, too. Thanks for reading! -
I am so happy this poem added some heat and flavor to your day. And 'gardener's care' was inspired by my dirty fingernails. Thanks for reading!
-
Yes. Real tears. I felt them, too.
-
And what is worse, such things happen to real children. They are rarities, but not rare enough. We need to be there for kids in situations like these. Thank you for reading!

Andy is overwhelmed with the newness of truly living, and with the unusual sensation of hope. Thanks for reading the chapter and the story. -
Chapter 37 Awake to Warmth
Parker Owens commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in Chapter 37 Awake to Warmth
Thank you very, very much for taking the plunge and commenting. Your words make writing stories worth the time and effort spent. I know that Andy's story was a dark and difficult one at first. I thank you for sticking with the story to this point. Andy certainly has much to deal with and much to resolve. But perhaps he can begin to do dp these things in us new year. Again thank you!
