All Comments on 'Charity Begins Next Door'

I've watched patiently thinking there was a dry spell for a while. This was one of the best you've written. Now I know the reason for the wait the project behind it. Thanks for this story at this time of year.

Absolutely loved it.

I thought MugsyB was going to win this years competition but I think you have gone straight to the top of the leader board.

What a brilliant story. First story to bring me to tears. (Very embarrasing as reading it on a mobile) I wish I could give it more than 5 but a 5 it is. Thank you for such a wonderful story that completely ruled my life for a short while.

Thank you

Merry xmas

I thought my comments would be a bit unusual, but I see they are not. I read the story from the new stories index, and had no real expectations. It IS Corny and Wholesome and a lot of things that not supposed to be present in ART but I loved it. Its nice to feel real emotions coming from print. I thank you and I will be reading its descendents.

This Christmas story has it all. It is a reminder to us all of the often unfairness of life and the hope than we can make anything better if we can get off our asses. It touched a nerve within me as I and many others have had our lives torn assunder in the past. Merry Christmas to all and remember that giving is the best gift you will ever receive.

Beautiful story. I freely admit that I'm an emotional sap, still, I've only read one other story on Lit that made my cry like this one did. It was nice to read something a little softer from you. Saying this is softer should take nothing from your abilities - the scenes and characters were clearly drawn and able to draw deep sympathy from readers.

You gave me the gift of this story, I love having my heart strings pulled.

Thanx for this story. Wonderfully written.

Sad that I can only give it 5

I'm not sure if you've had experience of this sort, but your descriptions of emotions and actions are vert apt. I was positve that I would not read a story like this on this site but I am glad I did .

I was bit aprehensive about ur changing of genre.. and the story was predictable in the very beginnig.. but, nonetheless, it was a very good read and a commendable effort.. the emotional stuff was gud and the angry sex was realistic..

kudos..

but I couldn't stop reading it. An absolutely lovely little Christmas tale. You will probably draw the crabs from the 'Anonymous' critics but who gives a rats arse what they think. I better have a look at your other stories now to see if this was a 'one off' or just a taste of your excellence. Thanks and have a wonderful Christmas.
