Jules Archer

Glad you liked Brace :)

Thank you very much for reading and responding to "I'm Waiting". I welcome the encouragement.

Thanks, Jules XX

Thanks so much for reading and commenting on my poem, "Never Enough."

Thank you for your comment on "The Anniversary." I like the word honesty--it's why we write fiction, isn't it, to be able to express honestly.

Hi Jules:

Thank you for reading and commenting on "For the Lost Boys" and I'm happy you liked my squirrel tartare line--it was a bit controversial. I like it too.

p.s. I'm sitting at my dining room table cutting a holiday bedsheet into 350 thin strips for a school craft and listening to The Black Keys. Fictionaut is a nice diversion.

Thanks for commenting on "That'd Kill Ol' Bob" Jules. Not too many smoky bars these days, although I have to admit, I don't miss that aspect of it.

Jules, thanks so much for the kind words for "Baby, Baby..." I'm so glad you liked it!

Jules I'm glad you were affected by "kid" because that was my intention to write it scathingly painful.

jules, your comment on "ginger" is most gratifying. i love the energy you bring to your writing and to everything you do, and i'm happy to walk away with a slice of that source. cheers!

Hi, Jules. Thanks for reading 'Mercury Unbound-5.' Your comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thank you for the comment for "Looking Both Ways." Much appreciated.

THANK YOU!! Dead chuffed xxxxxxxxxxxx

Jules, thank you for the thumbs up for "Sweet Dreams." Always glad to get a vote from you.

Jules, so glad you liked "The Disease"! I like you!

good to have you back, jules, old girl. thank you for your comment on "under the apple tree". any "yowza" from you is greatly appreciated and will be put into the basket with the good apples.

Jules. Thanks for your comment great about my "party" story. I'm afraid I'm more of an afternoon nap person than party person now!

Hi Jules--Thanks for the fav on "The Mariner's Daughter". I'm looking forward to reading more of your work. On a side note love your profile pic!

Hello Jules. Thanks for likin' Wrong Nail Polish.

Hey you, thanks for reading "The Bed" and saying such nice things and for the fave!

Wow, I was reading Darryl's post at the bottom just above the comment box and typed his name. Bwahahahahahaha, sorry.
Thanks for reading "I will be a child again". Seriously though, you should compile a book of your Twitter posts. Peace!

Thanks for the cool comments on Cashed :)

Hi Jules. Thanks for reading Books and Covers, and thanks for the comment, too - means a lot! fos.

Jules, thanks so much for your comment on "Miscarriage." It was and is very much appreciated.

Hi, Jules. Thanks for commenting on "The Truth Will Out." Glad you liked it. It was fun (kind of) to write.

I like to picture you riding your newly purchased donkey.

Slattern is one of my favorite S words. (Thanks for your comment on Blizzard, btw.)

Thanks, Jules. Your comments make me happy. Thanks for liking "Disappearing Ink."

You complete me. And thanks for reading about how to pound my meat. Sassy!

Hi Jules. Yup, it's kinda sad, Man on the Run - thanks for reading and commenting. fos.

I have a vision, and it is of you and me, years into the future, racing down the sidewalk in our matching Rascal scooters. Let's make this vision a reality, Jules.
Oh, and thanks for reading my shit and stuff :)

Thanks Julie, always appreciate your comments!

Glad you liked my brutal little sniper satire, Jules. Thanks.

Hi Jules~ thanks so much for reading & commenting on Intricacies!

Thanks for the comment on 2010, What I Wanted, Jules. I appreciate the read!

Oh, you. Thanks.

And as far as my "pretty points" are concerned, maybe in 1999 they were, but now? I'm thankful for push-up bras and that's all I'll say.

Thanks, Jules. Yes, a nice quiet little travel story. Right out of the roto section. A favorite memory.

Hey sweet Jules! Thank you so much for reading and commenting on my Heart Snatch. It makes me happy you enjoyed it.

Hey, Julia, thank you for reading "1991!" And commenting! And the star!

Jules - your writing is like breathing; necessary for my survival.
Thank you so much for reading and commenting on Love Sick. You rock lady :)

Jules. When do you think the our world domination will be complete? Soon, I hope.

Thanks, Jules! Glad you liked "Sermon of Lilac."

Congrats on the pub in Blue Fifth Review. Any story about bowling is all right by me. I’m a pretty serious league bowler (except we bowl candlepins up thisaway), and when my current girlfriend asked me out to go bowling with her as a first date, I nixed the idea because I knew I would be more focused on winning than on making a good impression. Your story reminded me of that.

Always ;)

So kind of you, Jules, to read and comment on my poem "Wahrheit und Dichtung." Thank you!

thanks for reading 'untitled' :)

Thank you for your very kind remarks on fly and my veggie tale. You're so sweet, truly! Happy Valentine's. - Q

Thanks for your own impetus ;)

Jules, I am flattered by your response to my "Carver" story. Do you think I was "hard bitten" enough? That is, like Carver as edited by Lish?

Jules, you have been so nice to me and for that I am eternally grateful. Thank you so much for commenting on Starlight.

Jules,
Thanks for forum comment on "Greyhound." Happy to see that one reprinted.

Thanks, Jules. Glad you liked "Fate." Thanks for commenting.

Thanks for reading 'Golden' Jules! Glad you liked it.

Thanks, Jules. Appreciate the star & fave for "Madness."

Thanks, Jules for your nice comments!

Thanks for the very kind words on Unheard, Jules. I might have to look at a longer version of this one!

Jules thank you for "Hydra, 1980" I want to go there too, want to get out of this snow! Cheers

Oh, cheese whiz, Jules! ;) Thanks for the read and lovely comments on “Oh, Fish Eggs!”

Jules, Thanks for the comment and the fav for "Mad Max." Hope this gets to you. I've been struggling with the site for a couple of days.

Hi, Jules. Thanks for the comment on "Mussel Memory." Happy to be back. Happy New Year!

Yes, indeed; glad my Christmas contribution warms the cockles of your heart, Jules. Ho ho ho!

Jules, I appreciate the "Great" on my poem, "You Are." I taught junior high English: The Outsiders was always an up for us all. That and the grisly stories of Raold Dahl like "The Landlady."

Jules thanks for "body" that you read it and liked it is enough for me!

Must be a good story if it gets a star from you, Jules. Thanks for the good review of "War & Peace."

Thank you for reading, Jules. I'm fonder of some people more than I am others (the favorites know who they are). Please consider yourself a favorite. Your words mean a lot.

HM

Thank you reading and commenting on "Dog" - and for the fav! It means a lot to me that you read me. And take the time to comment. And are generous with your stars. Thank you!

Jules, thanks for once again giving me a boost with your nice comment about my "fishing" story.

Thank ya for Crow comments, Jules

Hi Julie--
Thanks for the compliments and FAV on "Cape Town". It's nice to have positive feeback on this very non-traditional structure. I look forward to reading your work. Love the profile pic!

Best, Isabell

thanks for the read and comment on ant heap. it's all about the sentences.

I wrote on your wall. With spraypaint.

Thanks, Jules!

Thank you Jules! Happy Thanksgiving! -- Quenby

Jules thank you for reading my work tonight - so glad you like them. Let's talk soon and so happy about your MB story, congrats again!

Jules I'm glad that "rug" struck you that way, thanks so much

Thanks, Jules. Glad you enjoyed the poem at Blue Fifth. Thanks for telling me.

Hi Jules,
Thanks so much for reading "She spread her legs and flew away"! Love the profile pic!

My pleasure.

Like the way you think Poe,

Best,

Poe

My pleasure, Jules, "Mama's Mass" is superb storytelling. It's so moving. You have the confidence to be subtle in your storytelling. You just paint the scene and your characters so vividly and naturally. I will not soon forget that image of the mother and daughters walking to mass in the dark wearing their black coats and black gloves on a snowless night. I can see it like a film. Gave me goosebumps. Truly, I love your story.

Jules thanks for the kind words & fave for "Moro". I love your work, too!

Jules, thanks. That's a great idea about "Welcome Back." I could write more stories about those two (three?) indeed!

Don't know about "life lessons," but thanks for commenting on "Convictions," Jules. Glad you liked it. Reading anything 50 times though sounds like a punishment to me!

Aw, Jules, you are always so nice to me. Thank you for your commenting on "The Party."

Jules, thank you for the nice comments and fave for "Stampede." I'm so glad you liked it!

Thanks so much for your comment on the bird poem ;)

Jules, thank you, thank you, for your nice comment about my "strange" story.

Hi Jules. Thanks for the read and comments on Sunrise - I really appreciate both. foster.

Thank you very much for the encouraging comments you have sent over the last few weeks. Being new to the site, I appreciate your helpfulness in making me feel welcome and comfortable with things here.

Jules, thanks for the nice comment on "Searching for Samuel Beckett."

Thanks for your comment on "Law of Averages" - it made me smile. ~Cheers

Why thank you, Jules, glad you dig "Da Tung" - GL

Thanks, Jules. Relish your positive reaction to "Precipice of Questions."

Much thanks, Jules, for reading Sweet Sour and saying cool things. Notice, of course, the words "sweet" and "sour" both begin with that wonderful letter S, as does my name. Just saying. Stay wicked.

Jules, thank you for the close read! That line def. doesn't work with the typo. Where you at, girl? I need to buy you a beer.

Thanks for your comment on Amoco Cadiz, Jules. Much appreciated!

Oh no, the girls thing, not yours Jules! I claim lack of sleep although it is brilliant so there's an implied compliment! Now I'm going to see what you *have* posted lately!

Jules, I am happy that you liked my shrink story. That guy was a piece of work, believe me.

Thanks for commenting on "Epithalamion," Jules. Glad you liked it. Yes, not much else to say about it. I agree.

Thanks for the great comment on No Goodbyes! I appreciate the read.

Thanks, Jules, for the comment on Ordinary Boys. Nice to see you there on my story...

Hi, Jules. Thanks for reading 'Number Nine.' I appreciate your helpful comment and encouraging fav.

Glad you liked "Bone density." Thanks for commenting, Jules.

Thanks so much, Jules, for finding and commenting on "Parabola Tango." It's a rushing stream of stories these days!

Enjoyed your comment on "Parables for Rodin," Jules. Thanks for reading and commenting.

"Especially the way the words flow and linger after each section." Yes, for me, it's all about the sound of words. Section 4 is just names, but I love how those words in that order roll off my tongue.

You are also right ("...linger") that the stanzas are all periodic in the sense that the last line in each intends the smack.

Jules, my eyes always light up when I get a note from you. Thanks for saying such nice things about my party story.

Thanks for reading No Instructions. Very cool of you.

Jules, You are my kind of person! Thanks for your kind comment about my story "Worry." And you have been nominated as "Favorite Human" of the day by our nine cats!

Thanks for reading and commenting on Infinity Pool. For me, at the end, she's drowning. But is the ending her reality, or is the pool really an infinity pool? I like the fantastic version...

"With your poems - even though I may not get all of them…I get a gist and I love the writing.
Just had to tell you."

Lovely of you to say and wonderful to hear. Thanks, Jules!

Jules, your comment melts me. I'm humbled. Thank you.

Thanks, Jules, for commenting on "Par Delicatesse." Hunger, yes, but for what?

I have no editor but the folks on fictionaut and I thank you for it. It is a much better sentence/and story now. I am in your debt. LS

Jules, thank you for your kind comment about "The Semaphore of Civilization" and my poems in general. Your generous reading of my work means a lot to me.

Indeed - the nerve of her, turning off Tom Waits! Thanks for the comment on French Kiss, Jules!

Jules, thanks for reading and commenting on my story All Credit Rescinded, yes, she was very smart to get out of his car!
cheers!

Thanks for the kind words and fave on "Down Cellar," Jules. So glad to hear you enjoyed it.

Hi Jules. That is completely bizarre that you would dream of my name! But so glad you reached out to tell me. Given the odd connection, I must immediately hit you as a contact and read your work!

Cheers,
Cherise

Glad to hear I have your favorite letter in my name; and story. Thanks for your comments. Maybe I should replace my f words with s words... now there's a thought!

I bet you read Superman (or was it Superwoman?) comics when you were a kid.

Hi Jules. Thank you for saying you like my work, it is great to hear it. Very kind of you. I'll see you around Fictionaut! -meg

Jules, A late thank you for reading and commenting on 'Flash'. I wrote it much too fast, I just went back and edited it. Added another S word too, just for you (slash). x

Cheers, and I'm so glad my blog post was noteworthy for where you're at. I'm getting the feeling that these sort of feelings are going around in writers circles.

Jules, thanks so much for your read and nice words on my poem
Solitary, much appreciated
cheers!

Jules, Thanks for the nice comment about "Secrets." But what a coincidence--S is my favorite letter, too!

I LIKE THE IDEA OF WRITING TO ANNOY. But probably any writing is going to annoy. You can't get away from it it seems like.Someone out there is bound to be rubbed the wrong way. I think Abe Lincoln probably summed it up best with that "can't please all the people all the time" thing but if you're shooting for annoying all the people all the time,well, that's a mighty interesting undertaking. It treads dangerous water--that doesn't mean it doesn't have its rewards--so be careful what you put on your card. Although I thought it was rather funny and I wasn't annoyed at all.
