Hmmm, I'll have to see if I missed the word verification. As much as I try, I occasionally do that. Anyway, I totally loved your post, especially the conflict and how it built, the tugging back and forth with the ring tossed at the end.<br /><br />My Louisiana farm is just out the flood zone, but we're expecting some back spillage. Before this happened, I'd planned several stories that involved the Atchafalaya River basin. I just can't throw my heart into those stories now when I know so many in that area who are losing everything. I usually post about once a week or so. Denise's fest has disciplined me to every Friday, a good thing as I'm very much a free spirit. <br /><br />Again, thank you for your concern. That's very nice of you!Kittie Howardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756250649095903317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4515938238151905083.post-30063419921197387232011-05-22T06:19:03.588-06:002011-05-22T06:19:03.588-06:00Hi Nancy, haven't had much time to read lately...Hi Nancy, haven't had much time to read lately but I have started your book and I am enjoying what I have read so far!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04218651886143284455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4515938238151905083.post-76062620040489951322011-05-21T14:13:23.684-06:002011-05-21T14:13:23.684-06:00Sorry, but I'm new here and I'm afraid I d...Sorry, but I'm new here and I'm afraid I don't know the history of these two.
