I enjoyed this- Starting out
Posted on Mon, 03 Aug 2020
I enjoyed this- Starting out searching for monsters but discovering instead the beauty in the unknown and the strangely different. At least, that's where this poem took me and I loved it- I always smile when given optimistic endings.

No truer words spoken Luigi- We don't have a lot of time left to reverse this state of our weather and it appears some leaders are still deaf and blind - refusing to admit their is a danger around us- Your words so well paced- so well spoken- and...

Please don't delete- your words here are heartfelt and compelling. I was compelled to cry in outrage for this little brutally orphaned hippo and your kind interspersed endearments and encouragement weaved through the sad facts- and felt natural -...

Posted on Sat, 01 Aug 2020
What a thoughtful, poetic reflection on life with a simply elegant accent on nature. Oh those messages we miss when we don’t stop and smell the flowers, watch the bees or see the leaves come alive on the trees where birds make their homes. We...

The golden sunshine, optimistic, days of our youth- "like pleasure of marmalade on hot buttered toast" you've truly captured these musings here Jenny - You're look back is crisp, clear and packed with dreams - perhaps unrealized-- while...

I love these characters- Josiah and Archibald - they are so well defined that I can completely imagine them and that is the test of a great story for me- when the characters become real, as yours have and now I am afraid Electra might not be the...

I loved this walk through
Posted on Thu, 23 Jul 2020
I loved this walk through your writing process and I completely commiserated with it. It is very time consuming to proof and format your own book and the couch does like to distract us. Anyway, once you’ve hit publish and set if free on Amazon-...
