Thank you.




Dear All

 

For once I’m struggling to find the words to express my thanks for your extremely kind, generous and supportive comments. Primarily I write this material for myself as a way to escape reality– if only for a short time- and never intended to post anything until Bea conned me into it. Right now I expect we all are going through a tough time and to know that these writings bring a little joy and pleasure to others gives me such a lift. It makes the effort more than worthwhile.

 Everything I said in the introduction in my last post remains, however my major issue – and I think I’ve  mentioned this on more than a few occasions- is/was that I’ve always tried to deliver a chapter/story in a certain time frame but I’m finding that increasingly difficult to achieve. I’ve always been greatly appreciative of readers’ support and felt it may be better to call it a day rather than face further interminable delays as I didn’t want readers to think I was taking their patience and understanding for granted.

 I suppose this is another long winded way of saying once readers are aware that there may be a longer period between posts I’ll continue until it becomes impossible for me to do so. Another alternative may be shorter chapters/stories but as you can see, I rarely use one word/sentence/paragraph when I can use ten. So I’m not sure that would work out too well.

 I had intended for Life’s Little Dilemmas to be a one off but readers seem to like it so if you can bear with me for a while I’ll revisit it and see where it takes us.

 Thank you again for your kind words, it really means so much.

 Take care and keep yourselves safe.
