Jenni, one of my goals with almost all of my fiction is to put a smile on the reader's face. And your feedback just put a smile on my face.
C., "gentle yet lilting cadence"? Wow! I've never had my writing described in that way before.
Thank you!
Good for you, Anonpip, to have guessed the gifts so early on! I'm glad the story worked for you, even if you weren't surprised. (That's the problem with homages -- If you know the original well, you're much less likely to be surprised by the contents of the homage.)
My thanks again to the three of you and to everyone else who has brightened my days by leaving feedback. And unlike the gifts in the story, feedback is a gift that is actually useful.
Joy,
Lynn
