Rutabaga Posted May 22, 2022 Report Share Posted May 22, 2022 New story here. Somehow it seems like the neighbors' Jack Russell should be the one named Scottie and the narrator should be Joe. Just goes to show. Oh -- and we'll have to wait to see the relevance of the reproduced page of music on the title page. We'll have to wait and see just how innocent our young protagonist is.

Oliver Posted May 26, 2022 Report Share Posted May 26, 2022 The tomboy can be a source of answers to a lot of questions he is struggling with.

Probably will be for several chapters. 🙂 Quote Link to comment

Rutabaga Posted July 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2022 No chapter 14 - just an error message. R Quote Link to comment
Cole Parker Posted July 6, 2022 Report Share Posted July 6, 2022 Fixed now! Thanks, John. C Quote Link to comment
Rutabaga Posted July 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2022 We discover at last the pertinence of the music on the title page. Young Scottie seems to have a precocious knack for sussing out what makes certain adults tick, particularly where those adults stand as obstacles to his well-being. First his mother, then Micah’s dad. He has a great future in something. R Quote Link to comment
Oliver Posted July 7, 2022 Report Share Posted July 7, 2022 Still can't open it, I'm still seeing an error massage. Talking about cliffhangers: after reading part 13 and knowing 14 is the end..... This is really nagging. 😄 Edit: fixed it by refreshing the page again. Start reading now... 🙂 Edit-edit: great ending Cole. Thank you so much! Quote Link to comment
Cole Parker Posted July 7, 2022 Report Share Posted July 7, 2022 Thanks, Oliver. I liked that ending, too. Made me happy! C Quote Link to comment
Gee Whillickers Posted July 10, 2022 Report Share Posted July 10, 2022 I waited until the last chapter was posted before reading this one. The wait was definitely worth it! This was great. I really liked how you wrote Scottie's first sighting of Micah, and his emotional and physical reactions to that. Well done. Of course, the bowling definitely should have been five pin, far more romantic. Another excellent story, Cole! Thanks as always for writing it. Quote Link to comment
Cole Parker Posted July 10, 2022 Report Share Posted July 10, 2022 So glad you liked it, Gee. I love your writing and just wish there was more of it. You're sense of humor shines. Oh, wait, that should be 'humour', shouldn't it? C Quote Link to comment
