Your installments are great. Nice ending.

Ooh, cooking! Often I end up winging it when cooking dinner, and yeah, things can get pretty creative!

Half the fun is the uncertainty, isn’t it?

Hi Lee. I'm a little late but so glad to be here for the sixth installment. I was at the edge of my seat, the pacing was great as was the imagery. A little sad the house had to go, but the lovers coming together made up for more than that.

I almost saved the house, but then I didn't know how to rid it of the mad scientist. Very crazy story, but fun to write. Thanks for reading.

I’m so glad. I was worried readers would think it was too smaltzy.

Happy endings are the best! While I haven't been writing, I have been reading a ton lately and walking. I also love to bake and cook. Wish we lived closer, we could walk together.

I try to get around to all my writer friends. Sometimes I run out of time.

You have lots of creative endeavors. I bet you found some new favorite recipes just by experimenting with ones you already knew.

I did. Sometimes I even write those experiments down. 🤨

I am so glad you chose the positive ending. I don’t think I could have borne a horror today.

I saw your new patio and how you landscaped it after it was finished. Very creative.

Hi,

I am not a gardner, although I have one plant that is still living and I love her. I call her Hadassah.

I appreciate people who can make plants grow to make the outside look beautiful.

If you've named your plant, you are a successful gardener!

Very good. I have been wondering how the story was going to end.

As for creative pursuits, I enjoy building things and cooking.

I'm not good at building, but I love to cook. It's helpful to cook well if you like to eat, right? :-)

Darn, I should have counted reading as a creative pursuit. It all feeds in and keeps the wheels turning.
