So glad to see you back and sorry that you have had such a rough time. This was such a great read. I actually really loved that it was just a Brian and Justin chapter. Thank you!

Hi, and thank you! I really appreciate you letting me know you liked it. Truly. It was very frightening when I couldn’t write for awhile. That hasn’t happened in years… :(. It took me a minute to accept that Dill wasn’t prominent in this chapter, too. Sometimes my muse and I arm wrestle, lol.

Welcome back. This was totally amazing. The first time Brian acknowledges his birthday. So sweet.
I am sorry about the rough time you have had. I lost both of my parents this year. Both were in a Nursing Home and were not allowed visits due to Covid. It just doesn't seem real, no real closure. I have days I just can't get up off the couch. Hang in there. Your writing is amazing.

I’m very glad to hear you’re doing better. This is such a wonderful chapter. Brian at 50 years old. He’s making good progress in this growing up thing, with Justin there too. Omg, Brian and Viagra… hopefully Ted won’t borrow it! Lol I need to get caught up on your stories. xo
