    My pleasure, Nonnie. Always pleased to help make things good.

    Amanda Harris – Apr 28, 2013

    Thank you, Nonnie, for commenting on and faving "Never Let Me Go". I'm glad you enjoyed the "mind trek".

    Gary Hardaway – Mar 16, 2013

    Thank you, Nonnie, for reading and the kind words regarding "Metastasis".

    Gloria Garfunkel – Mar 09, 2013

    Well, it's taken me months to get back to you too. I forget to check old stories for comments. Thanks for the Hair and the Whore. Family Therapy is a good group. gg

    John Riley – Mar 03, 2013

    Hi Nonnie, thanks for commenting and faving "Middle Age." I'm happy you enjoyed it.

    Steven Gowin – Feb 26, 2013

    Nonnie, thanks for the notes on the "MacGowans." We forgive your Catholic heritage. Our family history is so lost that I've decided to just lie it up. Dad also said we were directly descended from Charlemagne . My wife's African American so I think we'll need some Zulu Kings or the West African equivalent for the kids... we're already set up with nose bleeds and migraines.

    John Riley – Jan 22, 2013

    Nonnie, I just saw you quoted on my birthday piece. Thanks and I'm delighted it introduced me to you a little bit more.

    David Ackley – Dec 12, 2012

    Thanks, Nonnie for the comment on " Under the Skin." Yeah, those are all the questions I had too and no better answers.

    Mathew Paust – Dec 12, 2012

    Nonnie, thank you much for your perceptive reading of Four Hearts and a Vase of Jonquils. Your generous words are encouraging.

    Mathew Paust – Nov 30, 2012

    Nonnie, your kind words for my poem Conjured Love are encouraging. As I haven't studied poetry much, my own stuff tends to the instinctual or imitative.

    Foster Trecost – Nov 29, 2012

    Hi Nonnie, thanks for reading and commenting on a bar for all occasions. I always appreciate your time and thoughts. fos.

    J. Mykell Collinz – Oct 31, 2012

    Hi, Nonnie. Thanks for reading 'Assiduity Five.' I greatly appreciate your comment.

    Gloria Garfunkel – Oct 30, 2012

    Yes, I did first write Saratoga in third person and thought I caught them all, but they're sneaky, like minnows. I will trap the three you found. Thank you so much for telling me. Of course that confuses the reader. Bless you!

    Foster Trecost – Oct 14, 2012

    Hi Nonnie!

    Meg Pokrass – Oct 14, 2012

    So happy you are here!!

    Yvette Wielhouwer Managan – May 06, 2009

    Hi Nonnie. I hope that you had a great time in Pensacola - I remembered that you were going.

    How wonderful for you that your brother visited. It's nice to see a friendly face around here. :)
