About the author

Rebekah A. Morris has lived her entire life (as of now) in Missouri. Being home educated during her school years was great, except for writing. That was the worst subject (along with math) that she had to do. It wasn't until after she graduated that she discovered the joys and wonder of writing. Now she can't write enough. After spending six years in research and writing, she completed her first book, "Home Fires of the Great War," a 500+ page, historical fiction about home life in the United States and Canada during the First World War. Since then, she has been an avid writer and always has more than one story going on at once because only one story at a time got tiring and dull.

Forget Not was a charming story with a beautiful message and an important reminder. Perfect for Valentine's Day. :)

Perhaps this little tale should be required reading for all couples as an object lesson on communication! You can't solve a problem if you don't communicate....what a beautiful theme for a short story. I loved every moment of it—just sorry I didn't get to spend more time with the characters.

A short story about learning to talk things through. I recommend this story to readers of all ages.

This was a nice short story with a good message. The only thing I think I would have liked better in keeping with the theme was to see Carlee and Kevin actually talk through the issue instead of just apologizing. I felt like a bit more communication was in order. ;) Didn't see the ending coming, though!

Such a good lesson in this story, several good lessons actually! I really enjoyed it, and it's short enough to read in one sitting without being too short for the characters to develop properly or have any important plot points left out. I'd highly recommend it!

Not one of my favorite short stories. It felt too cramped for the message and character change that needed to happen. But still, an important lesson to learn.

Although not my favorite by Rebekah Morris, “Forget Not” was a nice short story. Short stories aren’t always a favorite of mine because I don’t get to know the characters all that well, but this one was good. I think I would’ve enjoyed it a little more if it was longer, but I did still like it and it was a fun little book to read.

3 stars & 3/10 hearts. This was a cute little story. Kevin was a dear, and Miss Retter was awesome. The whole story was so perfect and realistic, I could see it all plainly in my head.

A Favourite Quote: “‘That clock has been in my family for over a hundred years and it’s still working. But one time it stopped. It just wouldn’t run. It doesn’t have batteries to replace, so my grandfather took it to a watchmaker friend who took one look at the mechanics inside and said, ‘A spring is broken.’ That was it. One little tiny part of a tiny spring had broken and the clock wouldn’t run. I think you two have the same problem. If it were something large between you, you would notice and fix it, but because it is such a little thing, it has gotten overlooked and now your relationship can’t move forward.’”

This was a delightful, short story about a misunderstanding. I loved the lady who helped get it patched up! The story is very sweet, with a good lesson.
