Only two stories in so far (short stories are my solace when grading papers, so I grade a certain number then read a story, and so on). I might sell my soul to be able to write like this. Wow.

Hi Shaindel,You poem "Cicadas" is FANTASTIC! First of all, I loved the sound of the words...and because of your poem I was introduced to the wonderful sounding word: viburnum.
And when I read it again, I appreciated your take on the concept of time...
Thanks for sharing your writing!
--John
thanks for that add, Shaindel - appreciate it
thus far, both myself and the girl are digging A Brief History of Time! i'm only reading 1-2 poems per diem, but will review soon! you're awesome, kiss!
Hi Shaindel...I love your name. Thanks for the friendship!Jeannie
Congratulations on the publication of your book and good luck!!!
Hi.What We Talk About When We Talk About Love?PLZ Answer The Question In My Profile.
Hello, Shaindel, Thanks for accepting my request. Looking forward to reading with you.
Hi Shaindel... thanks 4 being my friend... lets share any good info
Thank you for making me a friend. I have the highest regard for teachers; as for writers I'm biased. Warmest wishes to you and keep me posted on all the lovely works that happen to cross your path.
Thanks for the add! Cool to see you were reading Dubus....
I want to apologize for the all the recommendations from me today. I wanted to share the Stoker Award news, and I only pressed the send button once--I'm not sure what happened.Argh...this is terrible...
Again, I'm very sorry.

Hi Shaindel!Here’s wishing you a nifty New Year filled with noiseless noses, neato nicknames, noble Nebraskans, gnarly narcoleptic nebulas, and novel novels about nut-eating narwhals and novercaphobic gnats.
-Jeremy :)
P.S.—I’m currently offering autographed/personally-inscribed copies of my novel, Vacation, with free shipping for those in the US. If there’s anything you could do to help me spread the word about this, I’d really appreciate it. Feel free to click here for details:

Shaindel, we are all learning. I just realized I can use the source code here to write with bold and italic or
both

Hi, Daniel,I had just assumed people would cut and paste into an address bar. I guess I can always make them live links... Thanks for curing my laziness so that other people can have it ;-)

Shaindel, you write about what you know the most about. Anyone who tells you anything else is stearing you wrong. Thanks for the rapid reply. I'll get with you again later.
