All Comments on 'Harvest of Expectations Ch. 06'

You did a great job of capturing the essential unfairness of a confrontation between a difficult father and a young man who is dating his daughter. Jim was forced to deal with a mean spirited adult on his home turf without the years of experience to deal with it and did well IMHO. It is natural that Hildy's father would think they are having sex, because that is what young men and women do and very likely what he did when he was Jim's age. Hildy is being abused, not physically, but verbally and mentally.

A very interesting confrontation between an anxious father and a not completely convinced suitor. The father translates all the events according to his own experience and does not feel that the high flyer will do anything other than dump the tall gawky gal. Or does the father really believe that engineers are dumb?? Now if he was studying for his MBA------

Jim is both a fool and a wise man, and that's why your story is captivating !

It is bit itonic yh zmr Wertz tried to pir Hildy up with an apprentice machinist as a stable working condition as within 10 years after the date of this story the unemployment rate for machinists approached 100percent.

This was just another reason why I think Autumn Writer is one of a small handful of highest quality authors in this genre. How does a man not love Hildy? How do we not root for Jim to grow up, she he loves Hildy, and take the bull by the horns? These stories are irresistible.
