I've been fortunate enough to read your work and I can attest that you are a talented writer. <BR/><BR/>I got some feedback on mine, too, and I went through the 11 (!) pages of comments and underlined all the positive remarks. Not that I'm ignoring the negative, but as I go back and fix things, I'll periodically re-read the nice comments for an ego boost. <BR/><BR/>WendyCinNYChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15548500219172368038noreply@blogger.com
