Fred, I have been thinking of you and praying for you, and feeling like an absolute beast for not contacting you more often to see how you are doing. I need to make a public apology for my meltdown. I have to figure that out. By the way, the person you see on Gather, that is the real me. That is the real inside of me. I hope you are feeling and doing better. You are sweet. Chana

Look who is up and about. Woo hoo, big bro! How are you?

I'm not feeling so good today. Something I ate is causing a probable need to air out our house. I wanted to read your story, but now I don't think I can sit at my computer much longer. I am going to sit on my throne and try to figure out what I ate that obviously should be avoided.

Hi Fred! Just checking in with my big bro to see how your feeling after the surgery. Please let me know how you are and how it went as soon as you're well enough. Thanks. Hugs, Jen

I think of an aerial view of Capetown when I think of your writings. There's a nice rustic, with traces of Victorian lifestyle running through the story weave you knit in the finest of pattern. There a good logical chronological step of events, which you usually divulge as a certain time day or night. Your stories seem outlined almostlike a scientific method, yet within such strictures is why your creative inventiveness as a teller of tales shines.
I have really been busy. I do intend to read & comment on a few of your stories as soon as I can.

Fred, I have been meaning to ping and e-mail you. I have just been so distracted lately. I hope everything went well with the OP. Please let me know, I really want to know. I am going to go to bed in a min., really upset. I have pretty much been MIA around here except for some poems. Hoping you are better,Chana

Fred, Both Your Words and Truth or Fantasy? are actually deeply personal. I just wanted to put them in my group of my poems so if I want to read them I don't have to go looking for them as hard. They were written a week or two ago and were not actually meant for publishing. Still, I am glad you liked them. I think I need to go lie down now. Chana

Hi Fred! I loved the Muse. Thank you for the mail, too. Have a great evening and I do hope you're feeling alright. Hugs, Jen

Fred, Two things. First I went (finally!) and moved you into my writers subset, so now you are in both. Second, I was looking for a comment someone made because I wanted to mention it to someone else and I keep coming back to your I love what your poem says and doesn't say. Everytime I see it I wonder what you meant. I enjoyed reading your poetry today. Chana

OK... I think that Fedya would be fitting. ;-) I will be praying for you daily...

Hugs and blessings - S.
