Comment from Wendy G
What a lovely story! I enjoyed it a lot, especially the dénouement. Well done.
I picked up a few small things to edit - hope I'm not too picky.
Wendy
1. "into her Hazel eyes" - no capital needed.
2. "He never meant for that truck hit him": "to hit him"
3. ... "feel about your Mother...": No capital as it is not used here as a name or title.
4. Don't you worry, Lucy? Question mark not needed.

This is a great story, Mike. I found it to be interesting and engaging,always hoping for a happy ending for Lucy. I like the Madge image and hope there will be a Madge there for any young person who needs help in an ungiving world. Well done, Mike. Nancy:)

Comment from GWHARGIS
Very cool. That story could have gone several ways. I kept waiting for it to go a little more spooky supernatural , but I loved the direction you chose. Favorite line was Madge saying "oh madly, child." I could see and hear her thick Southern accent. Great story. Gretchen

I love this story with the mysterious Madge. How wonderful she only shows up when she's needed. The world could use some Madges today. I'll check out the other story soon.

Comment from BethShelby
I really enjoyed the Madge story. It is supernatural in a good way. It reminds me of country song about a Truckdriver who helps people who break don't on the highway but he died in a wreck years before.

What a beautiful story Mike, these stories give hope to a lost world, and restore faith in truth, justice and love. The thought struck me, and this why I write, I think. But I also think that God guides my every step, and really, if I'm truthful, it's He that pilots the ship. Beautifully written, blessings Roy
