    Moving Reasons

    Parker Owens commented on Carlos Hazday's story chapter in Moving Reasons

    Picking up this story is going to make a wonderful summer read. I’m loving this view of Thiago’s life.

    What a lovely way to finish off this splendid story. I particularly liked seeing Loren’s so-called parents humiliated and sent packing.

    Flying Lessons

    Parker Owens commented on Aditus's story chapter in Flying Lessons

    Whoa! A wolf transformed into a dragon! What a way to learn to fly.

    Oh, my goodness! I’m overwhelmed by the possibilities.

    Chapter 13 Mind

    Parker Owens commented on SilvryArdor's story chapter in Chapter 13 Mind

    I like the image you set out for us: the poem as the hard shell, drawn from the experience of living. It’s kind of like the exoskeleton of a lobster, perhaps.

    That’s a great question. As you say, Gunnar is dead, but his past behavior indicates that the man had a mean and impulsive streak. He never wanted Stefan, and resents his presence in the world. In his sober moments, Gunnar possibly hoped to keep his son in servitude, or even try packing Stefan out to Uncle Ray in exchange for some of that extortion money he’d had to save up. Conveniently, Ray would probably make Stefan disappear and Gunnar could plausibly deny any precise knowledge of the boy’s whereabouts. As you suggested, it appears that Stefan was living on borrowed time back in Carlsberg. Thanks a ton for bringing up an interesting plot bunny.

    It took a lot for Loren to face his deep fears. But once he did, he seems so much happier.

    Nice way to turn the tables on that grandpup who’s too big for his britches. Thanks for this lovely story.

    May Morning

    Parker Owens commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in May Morning

    I am a confirmed flower sniffer. Today, the sweet locust trees were in bloom, and the bees had to compete with me, at least for a while. It makes me glad to know you enjoyed these.

    Somehow, I missed this - I’m terribly sorry. Although the Stevensons are taking Andy in temporarily)according to the statute), it also seems that in several ways, he’s come home to them. He doesn’t understand how to be in a family, but he feels for the first time what it’s like to be on the inside of that warm circle. Thanks so very much for your comment.

    Thanks, tim. You often reminded us to observe, and these have tried to do just that. I’m glad you joined me in the green woods and along the river.

    May Morning

    Parker Owens commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in May Morning

    I wrote it a couple of weeks ago, then let it sit and simmer for a while. That’s a habit of mine in writing just about anything. Thanks so much for reading and for your comments!

    May Morning

    Parker Owens commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in May Morning

    You were immensely kind to prod me about that first piece. There are mornings and moments that feel as if they were written in some great life volume for us to sense and experience. Perhaps that came through.

    May Morning i. The sun is shining this morning; Forty-three degrees at the time of my dawn-hour walk. It’s a favorite time of year. The unmown lawn is thick with bugle, forget-me-nots, and monkeyflower. Lilacs, wild honeysuckle, dame’s rocket and late daffodils are all in bloom. I stopped to sniff them all, it seems, like a honeybee investigating every plant. And in the woods, a veery competed in so

    Yet another collection of poetry, added to as the mood or fancy strikes me. I hope you enjoy at least some of it.

    @Mike53, welcome! There’s so much to read, and tons of great people. Glad you joined!

    Your poem made me nod in agreement. It’s a strong person who can give up control.

    I hope you can help CJ and Oz out after their ordeal! We can now all breathe again ourselves. Thanks for a fantastic story!

    For the Fallen

    Parker Owens commented on WolfM's story chapter in For the Fallen

    Thank you for encouraging us all to remember those who fell, that they may be raised in our recollection.

    Bravo, bravo! Take a bow. Several, seeing as Eric is too standoffish to take his own. I enjoyed this thoroughly !
