  1. I love your characters in this series! Book 3 was as good or better than the other two. I look forward to the next installment. Thank you.

    Chapter 6

    I didn't find this story until today. I read chapter one and liked it so much I binged the rest! I'm caught up and anxious for more. I like the idea of canine shape-shifters that are not wolves! Avi and Lex are great characters, and their story is very entertaining! Thanks.
  3. Thanks for this enjoyable story with a clever twist at the end!

    The Buckle

    It is always a pleasure to read one of your stories. I reread my favorites from time to time. It is great to read a new (at least for me) story! I will anxiously be looking for more. Thanks.

    Chapter 12

    I do believe people can change for the better. This story really helped readers understand why Scott was such a bastard in the first story. I thought his transformation was well done. It is amazing what love and acceptance can accomplish. Maybe the apology was a bit neater and quicker than would happen in real life, but it was a most satisfactory ending! Thanks for sharing this story.
  6. Great images! We have feeders at our house and enjoy the birds they attract. Thank you.

    Life Redux

    Thank you Tim. Both were beautifully written; quite possibly some of your best poetry. I especially liked the message in #1.

    Chapter Three

    I am playing catch up, but I am really enjoying this story! Good dialogue, great characters, and nice pacing on the plot. I especially enjoy Noah. He is a most interesting guy. Thanks.

    Chapter 1

    I agree.

    Chapter 8

    Thank you for another most enjoyable chapter. I think I'll have to add Su Yin's name to my list of favorites of your characters.

    Chapter 12

    I am caught up again and I am really enjoying this story! Rory and Milan are great characters! You have also created an interesting supporting cast. I am wondering about their town. Milan's family are the only humans? Everyone else is nonhuman? Thanks for sharing this story.
  12. What happens when an accident send a spaceship with a crew of three earth men on an unplanned trip through time and space? We see how they interact with a more primitive society and a more advanced alien flight crew. Ms. Esteban imagines interesting and some times unexpected interactions between the three groups. I enjoyed reading this story and found it was a thoughtful look at trying to get along.
  13. I really enjoyed this story! I am glad that the ending left room for a story about how the three earth men adapted to their new home. Thank you.
  14. Thanks for the little ray of hope that Vlad might be able to get Tyson over his suicidal thoughts.

    Freewill

    I always enjoy reading your stories! This one is no exception. I was surprised when Peter pushed Mr. Egas out the window, although I probably shouldn't have been. I think Maurice's solution was a good one. By promotion the book and Lafcadio's lifestyle, he is indirectly responsible for the death. I doubt Peter would have ended up in that situation otherwise. I also think Maurice cares/loves Peter enough to help him get past the guilt and remorse. Thanks for sharing this story. As always, you leave us with food for thought.

    Divine Sin

    You are amazing! You have created a whole mythology to go with your story. I wonder did the mythology come first, or did it develope as you wrote the story? Can't wait to read more! Thank you.
  17. I was not expecting this turn of events. Your story just gets better and better! Thank you.

    The Letters

    Artie is one of my favorite characters! I am really enjoying reading about him, his uncle, and his friends. I like the way you write dialogue. It seems very natural. Thank you.

    Chapter 7

    I went back and reread from chapter one. Reading what you write is effortless; it all seems so smooth. And you use really intriguing word choices in your descriptions. You have done an excellent job of capturing Jacob's frustration, confusion, and anger. I can really feel the emotions of all your characters. Thanks for posting. It was good to catch up with the guys.
  20. I really enjoyed this story! It seemed very real to me. I would like to think there are teens whose coming out is very much like this. Being kicked out happens, I am certain, and it makes for good drama in a story. But I want to believe there are many parents who love their children enough to get through coming out with their child, not as enemies. Thanks for sharing this story.

    Those Moments

    You realistically captured the feelings of this, and many other, caregivers. It has been my observation that often in families where the parent needs care, one child ends up with most if not all of the care giving. After my wife died, part of what I felt was relief, which made me feel guilty. The therapist I saw for awhile said that is often the case with caregivers. Death brings a feeling of sadness and relief. Thanks for sharing this story.

    Love & Need

    I can understand John's point of view, but part of me still wants to ask, "Where does helping end and enabling begin?" Love is often the cause of helping and enabling. Sometimes you have to follow your gut in spite of what others think or say. Thank you.
  23. You did an amazing job in under 500 words! Both characters feel very complete. You gave us their background, so we can fill in any blanks you didn't speak to directly. And I think you foreshadowed what will happen in their future. I know I feel I could tell about what happens to these characters after your story ends. Another good read from you. Thanks.

    Closing Doors

    Very complete in so few words. I should have seen the ending coming, but I didn't. Nicely done, and very readable. Thanks.

    Currents

    And maybe a little Beach Boys playing in the background to raise the excitement?! 😉 Seriously, you've painted a great word picture! Thanks.
