Full disclosure: I may weep for a day after a critique. However, in the words of Mark Twain, I can live for a week on a good compliment.

"In good writing, WORDS BECOME ONE with things." · Delighting in life's absurdities one word at a time.
Abby! I’m happy for you (and proud of you, but that sounds too motherly) and have already enjoyed your writing. Yes, please keep going. Its your personality on “paper”, and I can hear you talking. Not everyone’s writing is like that. You are so easy to love. -Nina
Hey Abby,
I just read your blog entry: “My Homeland Security”. I had to take a few minutes to tell you what a gifted writer you are. You are one of those people that paint a picture with your writing – and it’s really cool!! God gave you an incredible gift – and it’s exciting to see you share it with others. I’m looking forward to reading more.
Wishing you and Mike the best in 2010.
John
Thanks so much for the encouragement, John! I appreciate you taking the time to check it out 🙂
LOVE your last two posts – and a special thank you for the plane-seat post. I still have the same feelings as you even with baby 10 weeks away! That mom is truly an angel. 🙂
I’m SO glad it was an encouragement! You’re going to have a blast with Baby Bolwerk! (And then I can follow your example one day.)
Looking forward to the final episode in this trilogy. You really helped me see some missing context between my text messages in India. You also bless me deeply with your warmth and grace. What a vibrant encouragement you are!
Thank you so much, Glenn! I wrote this with you, Patty and High in mind much of the time.
