Posted on Fri, 10 Jan 2025

I love the build up in the last few chapters and the cliff hanger of an ending in this one- Did Spencer escape out the bathroom window? Is he going to cybermates to fix his head? I cannot wait for the next chapter to post.

You have a gem...

Posted on Sat, 11 Jan 2025

Thank you Di- He was the best part of me. That photo is of course a younger one but his face was much the same, no lines and always smiling that great smile. My sons, although going through a harsh grief too, are helping me stay strong.

Posted on Tue, 19 Nov 2024

Posted on Mon, 28 Oct 2024

I had a feeling the narrator was ethereal but then you added human concerns and I wasn’t so sure. This well plotted tale led the reader deeper and deeper into the morbid awareness of the situation and seeing the events from the vantage point of...

Posted on Sun, 27 Oct 2024

I was worried when that robot, repair tech thought Vanessa might be abusing Spencer but then he did fix him, only he sent Vanessa from the room while he did it and he added some, unasked for, upgardes. It does make you wonder what those upgrades...

You are on to something here Turlough and I agree; Legos are the best toy for the creative mind of a child. I have boxes and boxes of the magnificent colorful, little, building blocks. The first set we bought for my older son was when he was four...
