Hi Sylvia, I enjoyed reading your piece "First Love". Did you ever try writing in German?
Hi, Sylvia - I'm responding to your request for feedback of Coppett. First, let me apologize if this is not the right place, but finding my way around on this site is rather challenging and this is the easiest way for me.
I know how frustrating it is to get no faves/comments and not know why, so I commend you.
My gut reaction on the piece is that, above all else, your writing here is absolutely flawless, but it was the subject matter that failed to 'grab' me. Are you familiar with a British TV series called "Downton Abby" - your piece reminds of that series which is flawlessly executed but I could not connect with.

Thanks for reading 'Aftermath', Sylvia! And for your generous praise!
Thanks for your kind words on "a good man deserves a good woman." Looking forward to reading your work!
Thank you very much, Sylvia, for commenting on "The Grave of Rimbaud."
Sylvia, thank you for your wonderful comment on "She Waited for Him." Stations of the cross--you were the only one who got that!
Thank you for reading and commenting on "The Wedding: Snow White." Happy New Year to you, with many good words to herd.
thank you Sylvia for reading "The Friend" and for your warm support on that story! nice not meet you here.
Hi, Sylvia, thanks so much for reading and commenting on "Nostradamus." Yes, it was fun. I just looked at your profile and see you call yourself a late starter. Me, too. I just submitted a piece for publication and in the bio I wrote that I began writing fiction 4 years ago and threaten never to stop.
You call yourself a kangaroo - does that mean you're from Aus? I live in NZ. Nice to meet you!
Love that list of favorites! Welcome!
