    What a wonderful pair of chapters! Dark and light - the contrast isn't forced upon us. Instead, the actions of the second flow on from the first. Wally does seem to attract guardian angels, doesn't he? I've given up trying to second guess you. I just read on in awe.
  2. I don't do resolutions at this time of year. It feels like I'm setting myself up to fail. I have some thoughts about the next few months but that's nothing to do with New Year- it's how I operate generally. If they happen, great. If they don't, then it's not the end of the world.
  3. ~~~~ Happy New Year! ~~~~ I'm looking forward to seeing where GA will take me next. I hope your new year will be just as fulfilling.

    Thanks, Gary. Finding the right words to describe both sound and silence was a challenge. Glad you enjoyed them.

    Your praise always means a lot. It's good that the sense of immediacy comes across - that was certainly one of the things I was trying for.

    I'm happy they reflect something of your experience as a musician. Knowing things too well can be dangerous (or embarrassing) ...

    Good! I'm glad they work for the non-musician as well. Thanks, Tim.

    Threatened

    Praise, another job with money, and his shipmates looking out for him ... Things in one direction are improving. One of the dubious pleasures of the internet is not knowing who will see what - as our hero is re-discovering. Hmmm ... feeling sorry for him, again.
  10. Your rant isn't pathetic - far from it. Everyone needs to let off steam - why should you be an exception? Sunshine heals many things.

    Parker Owens caused me to be created don't breathe waiting intensely while the silence echoes until the moment for applause erupts ~~~ counting always watching now preparing, then one glorious sound triumphantly bursts forth, golden shimmering perfection dying slowly away until nothing remains but breath ~~~ losing concentration mind wandering, eyes turning inward, ears hear without listening until lazy dull senses are snared, firing up, alert, 'Where are we? There, I think. That's

    Story

    Thanks for a great holiday read. I really enjoyed it and loved the mutt - he was an important third character in their relationship.

    Story

    A very enjoyable and sexy read for Boxing day. I like reading about unconventional relationships as long as they are consensual and reasonably equal. This story ticked all the boxes.
  15. Poor glittery. I've had Christmases where I've forgotten presents (500 mile round trip) and others where my brothers haven't talked to each other and I got duplicates ... Your hubby will appreciate his present the more in January.
  16. Happy Birthday, tim! I hope you have twice the presents! Best wishes, Anne

    What a lovely, heart-warming story to start off Christmas Eve with. Thanks, tim!

    Story

    I had to read the ending several times to make sure I'd got it right. So many twists and turns in one short story.

    Story

    What a fantastic treat. It made me tear up, smile and laugh - all within the space of what? 15 minutes? Not bad going ... And. of course Santa Claus exists ...
  20. Happy Birthday, Talonrider!
  21. Ahh ... All yours are very much still in progress.
  22. Indeed. Makes for an interesting combination. A piece of pure fun.
  23. I'm only just discovering what you describe and you do describe it so well. Thank you for giving your (our?) labours such wonderful, descriptive words.
  24. Yes, where to next? I like the idea of a surrealist prison. Thank you for your generous praise and I'm happy you enjoyed it.
  25. Thanks, Gary. It is a piece of fun which I'm glad you enjoyed. If you liked David, I'd be really concerned ...
