Thank you. Please note that I'm fine with constructive criticism, which is why I pushed back a bit about your comment. It felt like you really didn't like the beginning of the story and just left, which people do because we all have different tastes. However, normally, people don't say anything about it, like picking up a book in the store and putting it back on the shelf because it's not for them. So, I appreciate the additional information.
Thanks Reader! I wanted this story to be about strength and reaching for what you want in life. Sometimes we can get it, if we don't give up. Thanks for agreeing to read it for me. I trust and appreciate your insight and ideas. ❤️
Gwen changes for the better with her adult son coming home. He needs her, and she becomes. So, when Andy visits, she can handle it with Matt's help. I'm glad you're warming to her.
Maeve is a strong character who is skilled at appearing uninvolved. Yet she constantly nips at Andrew's heels to get him moving. Thanks for your comments, Reader!
Thank you for these wonderful comments. I'm glad you could see all Gwen and Maeve did for Matt and how Gwen has grown. Thanks for following this story and for your time and insightful comments. I am grateful. xo
First, it's okay to admit things, but why you didn't read on would be interesting to me and possibly give me something to consider for the future. Otherwise, I don't understand why you'd say anything about it.
Regarding the parents, people fight and argue. Koa apologized. I'm not sure what was not resolved.
I assume you read the rest and found it okay from the remainder of your comments.
Thanks for reading.
Thank you, Jeffrey. I'm so glad you enjoyed the book, and the epilogue answered anything outstanding. Thank you for choosing to read it. I am writing, and there is a completed story for the anthology.
I don't know if there's anything special in the Golden Horseshoe. i like to write. In any case, I am very grateful to you for reading and following this story. I always learn from readers and I'm always surprised at what they think of and see.
I'm glad you enjoyed this last chapter. Thanks again!
Thank you, Reader. One nice thing is I do not have to cook dinner tonight. I'm just stressed out...i have Peter to contend with on Sunday. We have that family reunion thing to go to. I'm seriously not looking forward to that.
Happy Friday. Just saying, i hate appointments...i've got too many in my life right now and i don't want to go. That was said in my whiny three-year-old voice. Blah, meh, ugh! In any case, have a good day.
Thank you. It encompasses love in different forms—love of self, of family, romantic love, etc. You're right, of course. Blue was trying to find himself and his place in the world. Thank you for your comments on this story.
I'm happy the epilogue worked. I must thank @kbois for her suggestion to make it fuller and more rounded. Thank you also for reading this piece and for your comments and thoughts. I'm grateful.
