    I absolutely loved this story. You’re writing is very crisp and effective. The characters in this story felt real and the ending was so heartwarming and bittersweet because of them. I know it’s a bit egotistical of me to demand things from creators but I almost would like to see more of Rosie and basically-her-dad-now. Either way, I hope you continue writing. I’ve read “Plucked” and “In These Walls” so far and I love your style and choice of subject matter. I hope you have a successful life.

      Thank you so much for taking the time to let me know you enjoyed it! I like to think that they manage to keep safe and possibly add more lonely people to their little found family over time 🙂

      I’m definitely still writing, although at the moment I’m up to my neck in a novel, so the short stories are on the back-burner while I wrestle with that!

      Thanks again.
