Sorry my last chapter was a bit hurried. I needed to show I took notice of readers who wanted more so it was just a quick catch up. I try to keep a standard that I set by 1 kudos per 10 readers for the first 500 who open my stories. But I still write around true life when I can since there are better writers for fantasy.
Glad I could respond and so more to come.
It's almost 2 years. Where as the time gone since I joined this site. I never intended to write just to visit for a while and read a few stories. I liked some of the stories that I'd read so I had a go myself. I don't know how many hours of enjoyment I've had and I've always had help and guidance. i look at the stories that had the most hits and the ones that had the most comments and especially the ones with the most hits. I guess my style is popular with some and not with others. I only had one hurtful comment in all my postings that was nothing to lose sleep about.
Not many entries to the Valentines Day competition so seemingly not much romance about. Why not watch this film 'The Artist' and see if it inspires you to write like it did for me? Doesn't Sephrena deserve to see her efforts rewarded?
In case you didn't see the film this is what 'The Guardian' newspaper said. 'What a wonderful picture this is: one of those films you yearn to watch again and again, while yet being fearful of spoiling the experience. It is one of the most eloquent movies imaginable.'
I read that after I watched the film and it summed up my feelings.
Page Could Not Be Loaded
We're very sorry, but the page could not be loaded properly. This should be fixed very soon, and we apologize for any inconvenience. Erin, Piper, Cat and Samanatha are on it (hopefully).
I hate this message that comes up too often after I try to post comments or stories.
Am I alone?
Did anybody see this film on You Tube. I can't access it and I thought the gurl/boy who played the part of brother and sister was so convincing. I also liked the girl who played one of 'her' protectors. But I've no idea about when this was made and for what audiences. Maybe someone can give me a link that is not through You Tube please.

Help!!! I just read about the top three worst female health habits and that’s me!!!
1. Wearing high heels
2. Carrying a heavy handbag
3. Sleeping in make-up
Could I finally have crossed over? OMG let’s hope so.
Who cares about 4. Matching men for drinking? Maybe No5. I should worry about that is wearing the wrong bra size. [Surely I’m bigger than 38C.
Nobody is interested in 6. Harboring regrets but 7 could be a concern that is being obsessive about my appearance. No 8 No emotional eating for me. Too many pounds to lose!!
I have been missing for a few weeks so for the friends I've made on this site who might have worried about me I am sorry.
I guess I've been very lucky to be able to take a break and meet some really nice people but I had no access to the internet most days.
I can't remember what life was like before the internet and the mobile telephone. This experience I just had has been a bit of a shock. I could even remember the telex and telephone boxes on the corner of the street when I reflected a bit.
I read a nice article story this week in a UK Newspaper that I access on Line. The Daily Mail.
It was called the Children of 9/11 where the mothers who were pregnant lost their husbands or partners in the horrors of that day.
My hope is they all have happy lives and that they never forget the fathers they never met many of whom were in the wrong place at the wrong time and some who were called upon to save lives.
I've tidied the original version a little mainly to correct some minor mistakes. But I was sorely tempted to expand it to a longer version.
I wrote it for the Summer Romance competition and I could have easily extended it that I might do if the story was of interest.
In really didn't know if it was a suitable story for this web site or not and I can't tell if I made a mistake or not since a single story is hit whether its of interest or not.
