Author has written 20 stories for Mystery, Young Adult, Love, Romance, Essay, and Fantasy. "We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels our nature" -Abraham Lincoln "Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities. Truth isn't." -Mark Twain "God made the world round so we would never be able to see too far down the road." -Isak Dinesen "It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets" -Voltaire Please forgive my stories for being complete and utter nonsense. But... that said... if you do happen to read one of my stories and would like me to continue... please let me know by reviewing. I tend to get discouraged if I don't think anyone is reading, and then I never finish. Why bother if no one is remotely interested in the story? I will review every person who reviews me. I think it is a common courtesy. Now... I hate to beg...in fact I feel very pathetic... but will someone please take the time to review "The Memory of Loving You"! I update it and then sit with my email open for days hoping someone will say something, but they never do. Usually I would just scrap it for lack of interest, but in this particular case I know that someone must be reading it because I keep getting added to Author Alert lists, but no one actually writes any reviews! I post on here because I want people's honest opinions and suggestions so that I can revise my work and become a stronger writer. I work very long and hard on my updates and it breaks my little heart when no one notices. I'm sure most of you understand, because it happens to us all on a routine basis. I like to read and review stories, so if there is something specific you would like me to look at, just let me know. I'm happy to do it! So I have made some changes to "The Memory of Loving You" in the interest of clarity. Hopefully the title subheadings will make the whole thing easier to follow. :) | |||||||||
