Conversation Between JimmyJump and dorothystrangelove

Just wanted to tell you that, while you are most appreciative towards reviewers of your stories, I myself am very appreciative for your appreciation.

You obviously have, unlike a lot of the scribblers here, a real passion for writing. It shows. Both in your committed mini-novels, as in your replies.

I do sincerely hope that you'll still find a publisher. Because you deserve it. At least, the writer part in you deserves it. If I were in the publishing business, I'd put you on my "authors-next-to-get-famous" list without hesitation. Which doesn't help you one bit, of course, sadly. I'm not an expert, nor a connoisseur. Not even a critic. But I'm sure that someone with your abilities will eventually get published. No matter what.

Just wanted to say that. To keep an eventual hope alive, should you still nurture ambitions in that direction.

JJ
