I took back the words that were once used against me.  I claim

This is beautiful! You really have a way with words! They just flow so neatly and eloquently! Just wow.

Thank you so much. But I think I'm done. Those two original pieces.

It is just wonderful to see authors whom I admire actually read and comment on something I have written. It's really cool!

I think I like this part the best, although it might just be my resemblance to it:

'It wasn't even any good, but I wrote today and that felt good.'

I really like the way you vary your sentence structure; it helps your words to have a stronger impact as one reads them. One is not lulled, but instead is tempted to revisit and examine more closely, which is very powerful.

I truly love words and writing. I'm so glad you're posting like this. It's inspiring for me as I struggle with my own words.

YOU are just awesome! Thank you for your encouragement. Being a beta for you actually inspired me. So I have so much more than just this comment for which to thank you.

Haven't seen you around lately (writing or reading). Hope all is well.

It's been...tumultuous lately. Just trying to cope. Thanks for the concern.

Sorry to hear that. Hope things get better soon.
