tHE gIFTThe chocolate was bittersweet, tiny, a reminder of things that were once good -- of things far from perfect, of times that lay behind him now like an old ledger filled with scraps of memory, each scrawled in indelible ink marking significant events.

Jimmy...

I was reading this... thinking I'm sure I've read this before..I'm sure there's a baby boy called Jack in it.. I was shaking my head wondering if I dreamt it!! I read it in the challenge and I commented on it then..It made me cry then.. and again now..

This was beautiful.. I haven't read much stuff lately but it made me miss your stories when I realised it was yours.. And I thought it looked funny - you used capital letters..

I ♥ you Jimmy.. Never change.. You write as though it just pours from your heart and assembles itself on the page as if it it effortless to you.. Your words are so heartfelt..Thank you.. I really liked this..

Hugs
Julie

haha capitals! yes, that was the real challenge! glad you enjoyed this one both times, and thank you for wonderful thoughts on my writing process. it's almost like that, really, sort of effortlessly fun. i knew from the start i didn't want a "sweet" story, and this is what popped out. :) :) xoxo
