Clearly you are on the mend if your creativity is returning and I am very glad to hear it. Your new idea sounds interesting and I look forward to reading it.

Hi Jim, I hope you had a lovely break away. You can tell me all about it later. No racing this week! Floods. I am feeling better, my voice and other problems still persist, but I can't not write any longer! This book is another fantasy one, very different to my other ones though, so it will be interesting to see how it is received. At least you're back ... and posting??? Or are you still tidying up after you building work? I look forward to catching up with you again. Warm hugs, Sandra xxx

Very much tidying up after the work but I have delved intobthe novel once again. I will post at the weekend -- an explanatory excuse for not yet continuing the novel. That should happen the following week.

Poor Italy those floods seem very unusual.

I am glad to hear your health is improving. Lonmay that trend continue.

You are lucky to have such a first class husband.

I am so glad you are doing so much better. I'm looking forward to your new book. I'm eager to start complaining about not having it all at once to enjoy :) Have a wonderful day. Shirley

I am so happy to hear you are getting better. I have been circling the drain for months, but I felt well enough to see the Dr. yesterday and I do believe I am on the road to recovery as well. I have been reduced to a wheelchair, but hope to get my strength back now since seeing him. Looking forward to your new book. Hugs and best wishes Sandra. Nancy:)

I'm so pleased to hear your good news, Nancy! A wheelchair is fine, it means you'll be able to get out and about better. Now we both have to build up our strength. I'll be doing that on my good days. I hope you like my new book. Love you lots, my dear friend. :)) Sandra xx

Take it slow, lovely Sandra, but I know that I can speak for everyone by telling you we'll be thrilled having you back at the fictional helm. The story sounds intriguing!

Thank you, Jay, you are always so nice to me, and I love you for it.
I started reading your story last night. I finished the other book I was reading. Now I can really get stuck into yours.

The last eighteen months or so have been so strange, I wondered if I would ever get well again. I no longer say I'll be glad to get this year behind me, because it doesn't work that way. But I am finding there are more good days now. Thank you for your warm welcome back, my friend. Love and hugs. Sandra xx

Take your time with it, Sandra. I hope you enjoy it.

Aw, Jan, I've missed you. I've promised I'll not overdo it, and rest when I get tired. This Long Covid is a nightmare! You are right about FS being my second home, and it is the nicest home anyone could wish to have. I'll be looking for your writing, my dear friend. Love you lots. Sandra xxxx

I am relatively new to Fanstory so we don't know each other just yet, but I recognize good news when I read it. It sounds like you are well into a positive state of health, and your writer wheels are turning. I look forward to reading your new work. Rest and heal.

Thank you, Ginda. It's lovely to meet you. I'm sure you are enjoying the site, it's one big family of writers. I've been very ill, and it will take me a long time to fully recover. But I am writing again, and that is the best medicine I can have. Thank you for your kindness, my new friend. :)) Sandra xx

Sandra, it is great to hear you have another story in the making. You have had a rough year. It takes a lot ot time to recover from something like you've gone throught. I so glad you have a caring husband to take care of you. I will continue to keep you in my prayers. I'll look forward to reading your story when you're ready to start posing it.

Thank you, Beth. I really don't think I could have coped without Graham's care and love. He really made sure I rested. I've promised him I'll be sensible and only write when I feel good. I've now got to prove to him I can be sensible!! Lol. I'll be posting chapter one on Sunday. I'll check it over again before I do. Thanks, my dear friend. :)) Sandra xxxx

I'm so glad to read this! God answers prayers! Your absence is keenly felt.

We have similar husband's as mine is a sweetheart too. He loves my writing and champions me. Today I'm meeting him and a few of his friends lunch. My husband gave them a few of my books and the wife has gone crazy over them. She's read four of them in a month. It should be interesting. FanStory always comes into the conversation.

Sending you my best today as always, dear Sandra.

Thank you, Sally! I'm sure your books are being read all over the world, and getting some excellent reviews. And you deserve them, too. It's exciting, isn't it? 😊
Sending you love and hugs, my friend. :) Sandra xx

reply by Sally Law on 18-May-2023

Aw, you're so sweet. My books are getting around the blind community, especially on Audible. Maybe Ill get famous after I die. LOL! I'm having fun though which is most important right now. Xoxo's!

reply by the author on 19-May-2023

I'm so in agreement with you there. I'm too old to do the promotions, but I do get immense pleasure in the writing, and knowing a few people enjoy my stories. It's amazing to know people love the audible books, blind and full sighted. I know one man whose job is driving all over England, and he always has a recorded book on the go. And they use them in hospitals and nursing homes, so there's another outlet for your books!! xxx

Sandra! I'm so happy you're coming back! "The Descendents" sounds like another one we can't stop reading. I'm sure it will be fabulous! I can't wait to dig in!

Now that I got my selfish rhetoric out of the way, I want to express how happy I am you're on the slow road to recovery. Best, JohnC

Aw, thank you, dear John. I'm looking forward to sharing my new story with you.
I'm really coping well now. I've promised that I will take the rest I need, and will be sensible. I've now got to prove to Graham that I CAN be sensible!! Lol. Thank you, my friend. Love and hugs, Sandra xx

I am so glad you are feeling much better and getting your strength back. The FS group is certainly a caring family, and it is wonderful you will be back and writing again soon. That sounds like a most interesting story coming.
