I know I can expect a lovely read. No exception this time.

Thank you

D.S.

MST, congrats for creating such a personal, introspective character as Dan. At this end of our lives we relive old joys and old pain, wondering how in the hell we got to be the final piece of the puzzle.

A very charming and romantic piece. Thank you.

It is you and a few of your fellow authors on this site who have inspired me to write again for the first time since highschool, nearly 50 years ago. Only a few can paint a scene and convey emotions as well as you few. Well done. As usual.

this is he first story of yours I have read, and it really hit me. I feel like you have bared a bit of your soul and it touched me so much I was moved to tears, I cant help but believe that his story reflects some real experience you have had, if not then you are to be congratulated on your ability to weave a convincing and moving story. that is a rare and special gift.

keep it up, I look forward to reading more of your work.

BTW I know a Druid named Galen, perhaps it's a small world...

A very nice piece, MST. Brought me back to my own Ren Faire days and a tall dark haired locksmith with a glint in his eye and a mattress in the back of his van. Ah well... You're getting smoother and smoother.

I can't get out of my head the idea that 'little girl, Vickie' would be just the right age to be Daphne's daughter. You left so many tantalizing openings unexplored. Like a good artist, you don't draw everything but leave lots to our imaginations. I felt like I was in that old tent/van with Dan, inside his head, as the confused memories of his life swirled about during what might have been his last great chance at passion, possibly morphing into love.

Nicely done! There's room for more...

That was very well done, and left me wanting more. I hope we see a continuation, and healing for both characters continues... they've both carried their wounds way too long.

Another excellent story with a wonderful bit of twist at the end.

You do write about lovemaking, not "just" sex, and very nicely. And as a man with quite a lot of grey hair, I can certainly fit myself right into this tale.

But please do a sequel!

I loved this story.

Also, I’m thrilled at your use of an editor.

Well done. Your character and plot development is excellent. You don’t over do it with the sex but it good when it finally happens. Write more!
