It did my heart good to see your post! Welcome back! Now, off to read it...
When I saw the story title, I was so happy. I had long feared something permanent had happened to you. I had always hoped for news as to how you were doing. I am just ever so glad to have you back.
Welcome back! I missed you!
Excellent chapter and continuation to the story. I can’t wait to see what happens next!
I’m sorry for the loss of your friend David.
But I'll need to reread the whole story to patch the pieces back in my head into.
And I'm so happy that you are alive. We feared the worst about you. We hope that you are doing better.
Much Love!
Welcome back!!! So sorry for your loss. You have been sorely missed.
Another excellent story:)
I hope you are well and thank you for returning. My condolences on the loss of your friend. I am excited for the new installment, though ithink I'll back track a few chapters to get my head back into where the characters were at the time.
It is so great to have you back. Love your stories. We will wait impatiently for more. So good.
So sorry to hear of the loss of your editor, David. *gentle huggles*
Another beautifully detailed and delicious chapter, ellie. *warm smile* I look forward to the next chapter and what intrigues are in store for the Zenati Men and Their curse-breakers.
Welcome back, Ella - nice to hear you are safe and sound. It's been a while ;-) Looking forward to more 12 tables stories.
So happy to have you back and another amazing addition to the 12 Tables series of stories.
Thank you for explaining: so many of the better authors are in their twilight years and their and other's ailments keep them from their pens, er. keyboards; and some, alas, never will: so I try not to send off anxious, demeaning, and demanding messages. Stay well and I look forward to many more stories.
OMG!!!!! I’m so happy to see you back. I was really worried about you, even though you don’t know me. Your stories are so good. I’m going to reread TZ to catch up to your new chapter.
Condolences Ellie regarding the loss of David. I’m so sorry.
Welcome back Ellie, it is wonderful to see that you're back, hopefully well, and sharing your superb writing again. It is an honour that you give this gift to your followers, for that I thank you. Sincere condolences on the loss of your friend.
Your absence left a huge hole in the Lit “true quality” category. Welcome back.
So Glad See You Back Again!
Not just for your stories, although they are awesome, but you feel like a friend and we worry when we don’t hear from you. We’ve missed you. Sorry to hear about David; losing a friend is never easy.
Welcome back. I think I speak for most of your readers when I say you had us worried. Especially in this climate. I look forward to once again to losing myself in your stories. (PS If there any Ashton Hill stories coming up, can you let us know? That's the other series(?) I look forward to. Thanks.)
I’ll need to review a few chapters to get back into the story before I read this one. But I quickly wanted to welcome you back. So pleased that you are well, you have been sorely missed. I’m sorry to hear about David.
You have been missed! Sorry to hear your Sad news though. Take care of you
OMG!!!
I'm so, so happy to see that you're back. I hope that life is treating you better now. Even if I don't ever get to read the rest of the Zenati story, I'm relieved that you are still with us. Thank you for sharing it.
You were missed. And it is always good to have another chapter.
I am so happy to hear that you’re back. I have to go re-read the rest of the chapters before starting this one but I think we can all say we are so glad you’re ok. I’m so sorry for your loss and I hope that you are healing emotionally. Xoxox
I so love your stories and am glad you have returned to writing. To celebrate I am gonna have to reread them.. =)
Thank you all for your heartfelt welcome back. I appreciate that you all still remember me :)
Thank you for continuing this story, I reread all Table stories...favorites!!
So happy to have you back. I'm sorry for the loss of your editor. I hope all is well with you now and continues to be given the crazy times we are living in.
Thank you for continuing your stories. I love your writing. My thoughts and prayers are with you in your lose.
Welcome back! Sorry to hear about your editor but I hope your own health issues are diminishing.
Shout out to OZ from Canada
First and foremost, it is good to hear you are well and on the road to recovery. While I didn’t know your editor, David, I am sorry for your loss and extend that to his family as well.
I can honestly say I have missed your stories and your writing. I had to do a double take and refresh my browser to make sure my eyes weren’t playing tricks on me.
While you claim to be an amateur in your craft, you should know your talent far exceeds your claim. You have provided many hours of escape and enjoyment to this reader. And for that I say thank you and welcome back.
So glad you're still with us, I've been praying for you. Condolences for David the editor.
Welcome back Ellie! So glad you've recovered your health...have thought about you often. Seems I'm a couple of months behind, but I will be visiting this site more often once again! Saddened to read of David's passing - his name so familiar as one of your "second pairs of eyes."
Have taken the time to re-read this story and note some masterful editing and re-writing. You describe you describe yourself as a "hobby" writer but your writing ability has developed - matured - whatever the appropriate name may be - and has reached a new level. Not so much hobby writer as "author."
