Hi Russell,

Good to see you back around! How's things been?
Russell, thanks for another helpful and insightful critique. I will definitely take the suggestions you have given under consideration when I get a chance to make more rounds of revisions to the piece. Thanks for taking the time to give such good suggestions.
No hurry, no worry, Russell. I enjoyed reading your work and I'm pleased you found the comments useful!
Russell, thanks for the insightful critique. Your comments were right-on, and I will consider the suggestions you have given. The detailed suggestions and evaluation are encouraging. I appreciate you taking the time to give such a thorough, effective critique.
Really?! That would be amazing *^-^* I'd really appreciate getting a critique from you, but I'll understand if you can't. All of my graduate friends have disappeared from our usual online functions. They may be better off for it, though. Scribophile's been monopolizing all of my online time >.>
Russell, I've read a few of your critiques! You're very good at what you do. Where'd you go? --Little
Understood - I've been swamped too but managing to keep my head above water!

Glad you're back!
Welcome back! I was wondering what happened to you.
Hey, I'm waiting for another Chapter in Orphans. I need a good read. It's not nice to be so mean to your fans...
Thanks for your comments Russell. Lots of helpful input. I've actually re-written Winter Hunt in first person from the POV of the vampire. Everyone seems to indicate the story needs a bit more mystery/edge to it and I think the change of voice might do it. Always a pleasure hearing from you!
