A heart warming story for sure and highlights a genuine issue in society of loneliness. There are many people just looking for someone to talk to but it's something that is stigmatised to a large extent. Good on you for engaging with her. Ah......

Yes, congratulations on completing a novel-length story. Beautifully crafted throughout. Whimsy and drama. You could definitely edit and publish this if you chose to. Paul

All caught up again. You have my full admiration for the length of the story so far and the consistently high standard you achieve with each episode. You are on course to have a fully fledged novel. Keep going!
