Epilogue

[estelle]

Her great-grandmére had spoken about the old time a lot. About the old planet. Her eyes always seemed to stare into the distance as she spoke about a childhood in the countryside. About playing hide and seek in the small forest behind her house and about the other children that lived in the neighbourhood

English is my 2nd language and I welcome friendly hints if my writing sounds off or I made a spelling mistake. Thank you!

What a great story!

[estelle]

Thank you!

I like this! It reads very much like the professional short stories I've read in published anthologies and magazines. You reveal so much about the society of the time with very little actual description. Nicely done.

[estelle]

Thank you so much! I take that as a huge compliment and I am flattered you think it's up to that level!

This was wonderful, and I hope there will be more. You did a great job setting up this world in very few words. It was very entertaining.

I always think: "I could expand this into a novel" but I never do. Thank you,it was fun to write this, too!

Very well done! You've created an entirely plausible world and an intimate relationship in such a small space!

[estelle]

Thank you! *blush* I hoped it would feel that way!
