requesting help for short piece of fiction

[Ingrid, Just another writer.]

I like it. Sorry if it doesn't sound like a long review. I think not many people here besides me have decided to review it because heck we have our own problems and you-----well congrats for having your book on Kindle and Amazon!! Not many of us can do that. The first paragraph was intriguing, set the mood of the story. I think a ton of people would want to read books like these, calm and relaxing not lust-filled and violent (Vampire Diaries) This is very creative and unique. Hope you plan on promoting it more often.

Sorry I don't have a kindle or tablet! I have a friend very much like you, her name is Lori right now Lori is living on the streets of New York, because the cold calculating bitch of a sister of hers finally got her own way and evicted her from the flat in her house, why you ask? So she can make a fast buck, and because she hates Lori and has tried and more or less succeeded in turning her whole family against her.

I hope her sister gets back threefold what she has given, what goes around comes around!

So you see you are not alone, and it must have taken courage to tell your story.

We should all count our blessings, I am still trying to help Lori I contacted a journalist/photographer who did a piece on the plight of the homeless in America, and told him Lori's tale he is in a better position than I am to bring it to the attention of the masses.

If at first you don't succeed, keep trying, beat the buggers into submission if necessary!

Hi Melissa
I read the first page on Amazon but I can't find how to dowload the first chapter. I have installed the Kindle rpogramme on my PC because I don't have the device.
I would be ahppy to review this. I am sure other authors would be happy to do an exchange, review for review. Have you tried LinkedIn?

have you tried asking some of the other groups on goodreads to get their members to review? They normally run a limited signup thing and anyone who signs up to review has a set time in which to post their review otherwise they won't be able to review others in the future. I'm sorry I haven't got the time to read your whole chapter right now as I'm supposed to be working..... distracted by GR again, but wanted to reply to you to say "don't give up!".

Hola Sharon

I suppose you are scorching in 35 degree heat while here in Brittany we are drowning, good for the spuds and ducks!
