I agree. The characters are so real to me and I too hope Mark is doing well. I so appreciate the series He has given us and miss him terribly. I literally went through withdrawal lol.......did not realize how much I looked forward to his updates.
Thanks for the update. Don't apologize for living life and being a mom. We can wait. Just glad to know it's something coming down the pike. Enjoy your stories. It's a compliment when we inquire. :-)
Awesome chapter. I just wanted to reiterate about the technical problem with the blank space in the middle of the story. I almost missed the part containing the dean conversation. Great writing keep up the good work and thank you for sharing your talent.
My heart goes out to you. I think of the old quote, "it's better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all." I realize that is probably no Comfort to you even Ten Years Later but sometimes all we have are the memories. Try to remember the good. Hugs!!
