Chapter 1 had me hooked, eager to find out where the story would lead. With this Chapter 2 you have exceeded my expectations and like any great author held my entire concentration and anticipation - I no longer wish to read Chapter 3 - I need it! I replied to chapter one and said it reminded me of how much I loved to read in my youth, in today's media rich world it is so easy to think if content does not have glossy pictures or perfectly edited videos it's not worth looking at. But you create with words images far greater then even the finest camera, a truly rich experience that you are more then generous for sharing with us for free. It is not nearly enough, but thank you for sharing your very special gift of writing.
