    Sherry Asbury: This cheered me a bit...in real funk to the point of danger. Forgive me for not responding to your work...I just am so weary and despondent. -


Sherry Asbury: Dear Fanstorians - I must share this with you: I have crippling rheumatoid arthritis in my hands - if I give you a number you question - please, please check with me. Some of our friends have caught my goofs and helped me and for this I bless them.
    Jannypan (Jan) : That happens to all once in a while, Sherry. No worries. -
    damommy: I have done that several times. Don't worry about it. It happens to us all one time or another. -
    Carlos' girl: I hope your arthritis gets better. Take good care of your health. -

Sherry Asbury: I am frustrated that I have been here so long and get so few views that I never get a ribbon. I have to assume my writing is not that good and perhaps leaving would be my best option.
    Carlos' girl: No worries sherry ..stay and just do your best. Don't worry about winning, just focus on doing your best work. I will check you out.

    damommy: Reviewing goes in waves. Some weeks, it seems no one is looking, and then other times, you get more reviews. The main thing is to enjoy what you share with others, and not worry so much about the small stuff that really isn't that important. -
    Jannypan (Jan) : Sherry,
    Don't let others decide your course of action. Reviewers cannot be figured. I find I receive fewer than before, then all of a sudden more come in. The ATB seems difficult to obtain. Lack of reviews isn't a comment on the quality of your writing. Please stay. Jan -
    Kelley Liberty1: Good god nooooo keep writing it's an outlet a popularity a reference a hmph you think so look at me but don't I'm too good -

    damommy: Congratulations on your win!!!!! -


Sherry Asbury: Thank all you beautiful people who answered my poem Despondency with kindness, love, and especially to the person who suggested noise-cancelling headphones!! I have decided to ask them to move me away from here...even if I must seek lesser quality quarters...it will be worth it!
    Carlos' girl: I have not read your poem but I will; fanstory is a very kind community you will find. -
    Mrs. KT: Sending positive and healing thoughts your way!
    Stay strong!
