Many thanks, Babs!

Hey, thanks for the detailed critique on my piece (and thanks for reading it in general). I really appreciated all of your kind words.
Thank you for the kind welcome. I'm glad to find people who have some things in common, even if it's as simple as root beer, chocolate, and crocheting. ;D
Hi, Babs!
Thank you so much for your indepth critique/editing of Chapter 5. I cut all the 'missing' details you mentioned because I thought it would be too much, but I'll put it back.
I'm send you a pvt msg explaining why the 'morcherry' is not mentioned in the last few chapters.

Babs, thanks again for the great crit, it's exactly what I was looking for. Great stuff! Thanks, CT
Hey Babs,
I haven't heard from you in a while. Thanks for reading Scape Artist. My best work, really? You're too kind. I wrote it in response to the criticism that my recent pieces have had no setting, so I tried to make that the soul of the piece. Like almost everything I post, I almost chickened out at the last minute, but did end up getting it out there. Thank you for your kind words and good tips.

A life-changing experience.
I wanted to put a picture in but couldn't figure out how.

Memoir, or part of one.
First thing I published on Scribophile--August 27, 2008. Still needs expansion but I've changed a lot of it and need to get back to that part of my life. Read →

An experiment. If I group things together by subject rather than chronologically, it doesn't seem so choppy. On the other hand, it might be confusing if the reader gets lost trying to figure out whether we're in 1945 or 1985. Read →
Essentially, a journal entry for Laurie's transition prompt. A transition from mountain to sea, and from present to past. No idea if it works, and didn't revise as much as I usually do--sorry. Not much access to the internet here. Read →
