Great response to the prompt...I wish I could be as reasonable and calm as Joel in a crisis. Great story.
-
Oh, yeah. Like that image...
-
Eric would certainly understand where you are coming from...

April 22 is my favorite of this collection, especially the last stanza. It reminds me of how much watching movies is something to be done together, laughter, excitement, popcorn, handholding and all. Beautiful!
-
These are beautiful lines, a perfect way to approach marks made on the walls. This is proof that laughter and joy can live for a kong, long time.

You describe this time, this moment, with devastating clarity. I can feel the confusion, the apprehension, the hurt. Great job.

A Time Traveler's Rant
Parker Owens commented on Mikiesboy's story chapter in A Time Traveler's Rant
What a bit of fun! Great metaphysical thinking...and the log cabin was an awesome touch.., -
Thank you for your comments, and most of all, for reading the story. I am glad the story engaged you and made you want to read more. And I hope Andy and Zander linger in your mind and heart for a long time. Thanks again.

Joel is certainly kissable, and Peter is making Joel his friend. Nice to see Joel making a friend of Sam, too. But I do wonder what's going to happen down at the surf beach...very lovely chapter.

This is a moment to be treasured, a reconnection to Fendral. It is not happening at all as I imagined it might, but then, you have very neatly made it happen in a seamlessly plausible way. And now it remains to be seen if the healing can be fully accomplished, and if the malaise can be truly beaten back. Applause from this corner!

You read me so well. Your comments on the sonnets make blush, and I will treasure them. There were prompts this week to encourage reflection and introspection, and melancholy came bubbling to the surface. I thank you for reading these with a keen eye - not once, but twice! I am very grateful.
-
Scott was exhausted and relieved...not good for the attention span. I am glad you got all caught up. Thank you for reading so much; now we can see Scott and Graham having a real chance. Both men could use that, I think. Many thanks for your comments and support.

Such evocative images paint a picture of melancholy. I can see the canvas vividly. This is exquisitely done.

More NaPoWriMo Dabblings
Parker Owens commented on northie's story chapter in More NaPoWriMo Dabblings
This is a wonderful April shower of poetry. I thought the Haiku was arresting and quite powerful. 'I'm Sorry' resonated with me as being true to my experience, but 'More Words' was a masterpiece of image and implication. Bravo! -
April 9 through April 15
Parker Owens commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in April 9 through April 15
Mostly, April 13 was meant to have images and ideas which overlapped...martinis at a bar, but there is such a thing as an oyster bar...oranges as in juice bar, overlaps with the old nursery rhyme...and so on. If it works at becoming absurd while making a teensy bit of sense, then I hope to have followed the prompt correctly. Thanks so much for reading my little scribbles... -
I liked doing Apr 22 as it reminded me more and more of an old old program called 'This I Believe.' My voice seemed to get stronger as I wrote it. Thanks a lot for reading these, and for your thoughts. Xo^2. P

Thank you...especially for picking up on that last phrase, which succinctly describes so much of what I wish to forget about middle and high school. You are very good to comment on these. They are hardly profound, but mean much to me.

April 22 : Believing Is Everything
Parker Owens commented on Emi GS's story chapter in April 22 : Believing Is Everything
Great one, Emi. It is a solid testimony kind of poem. -
How perceptive of you to say that about April 22! It is a kind of self-revelatory poem, if not a complete confession. And I am glad the manners poem made you smile; it could have gone on and on. Thank you so much for reading and commenting.
-
I'm sort I made that typpo. But thank you for catching it! I have corrected it now. As for creative thoughts, you may have as many as you like. They are mathematical in nature, though...
-
I am so glad manners made you snicker. You can tell it was fun to write.
-
I have to say that this is the one of the best comments a writer could get. Thank you.
-
I am very happy that the tension in the chapter kept you interested. Hope your chair is okay. Ellie was called an avenging warrior, or something like that, in a previous comment. She seemed perfect for that role. I wonder what she was thinking when she arrived at Graham's door? Thanks so much for reading and commenting on this story!

April 16 Can you explain why negative times negative equals positive? Signs alike attract, my love, so it was ordained above. If I were to add unlike fractions together, can I cross-cancel? Anger rarely works, my dear: treat your fractions with good cheer. When I integrate, what part of the expression gets substituted? False are friends who promise much, better use the simpler touch. Isn't the tangent in the unit circle graph per
