Thank you so much, dear poet. I love to torment. I'm perfect for this job. This ends Cjristmas Eve Eve, sort of.
Sending you my best today as always,
Sally :)
Comment from Roxanna Andrews
I wonder if I would be a naysayer? I'd have questions and urge caution, but maybe that would be wrong. Unless I thought something evil was afoot, I wouldn't want to spoil someone's happiness. This is great as always. Looking forward to finding out who this mystery man is. Rox

Comment from lyenochka
This is such a sweet letter and I just worry for this lovely romantic because he knows who she is but she doesn't know who he is which makes them unequal. In the past, people were introduced and they courted by letter but each knew each other as they shared the information. Still, I'm hoping for the best and that he really is true!

Equal in soul and spirit if I might add, just missing that final physical component for now. My husband and I had a long courtship and we fell deeply in love through letters and cards. I'm drawing from my own personal life from these two stories.
I'm so glad you're staying with me. These end Christmas Eve Eve. Sally xo

Ah, well, if is about you and your husband, then I feel less nervous for the lovely heroine.
Comment from Janetsue
Your series makes me sigh. This is one of my favorite lines in this chapter: "The man writing these beautiful love letters is handsome, with depth of heart and soul."
You definitely have a talent for stoking the senses with tender touches of love. :-)

I love to make the romantics sigh. I become concerned when a poet is not romantic. LOL! Thank you for the sweetest review and a six star booster shot to keep going. It means the world to me that you enjoyed this. I am so honored.
Sending you my best today as always, dear Janet,

Comment from A. Willow Bends
VERY intriging! You are the cliffhanger genius. I MUST be caught up on the blind girl one so far as I have nothing else in my message box. I just assumed this would be it. BUT anyway, this was great and I think I must still be waiting on the next installment of the blind girl! Box are six worthy and have me WAITING! GREAT JOB!

Thank youmso much for catching up with my tandem love letters. They go back and forth until Christmas Eve Eve. I'm determined to finish strong this year, and just love this story (and I'm having a ball with it.) You know I love to tease and torment my readers. It's terrible . . . .
So glad I have you,
Sally xoxo
Comment from WalkerMan
This is beautiful, Sal, expressing the essence of unconditional love, from the two relevant quotations, through Kristin's replies to questioners, to her declarations of acceptance of her secret admirer (with reasons why).
I especially liked the story of Burt and Alice, showing it is never too late in life for true love to blossom, regardless of how little time for togetherness may remain.
Even if the secret admirer was not entirely certain of his feelings and has been just testing the waters so far, this reply would confirm that he was right to pursue such a loving woman.
Superb, and aptly illustrated and accompanied by such a relevant video.

Dear Mike, I'm so glad you get me. How refreshing you are! Kristin is a loving woman, that's for sure, and he's just a little caught up in some difficulties. Watch how he responds to this letter in the days ahead. I'm so glad to be writing these two stories as a healing tonic for many readers here on FanStory. Not you, but so many have questioned everything about these two. Aren't most poets supposed to be romantic? You're a dying breed, my friend. Your six stars and kind compliments have given me the encouragement to go on. That and my boxes of love letters from Jackson.
Hang on, were going deep.
Sending you my very best today as always. Sally :))

You are most welcome, Sal.
Too many people have had (or know at least one other person who has had) a bad experience with hoped-for love failing to occur, so skepticism is common.
My confidence in a happy outcome here is based on both general optimism and what I see as your intent here -- to write a heartwarming story to end happily just before Christmas (a timely gift for your readers).
Your ability to maintain suspense makes the story more interesting and ultimately more satisfying. -- Mike

A kind word and encouraging. Many shoo love away when it is intended as a healing balm for our lives. Nothing higher . . . .
Sally :)

You are welcome, Sal. Shooing love away is comparable to being a regular buyer of lottery tickets, learning that you have a ticket with numbers just announced as the winning combination, and tearing up your ticket -- saying to yourself, "This can't be true because I never win anything."
Comment from Liz O'Neill
I'm wondering how the reader is feeling now about the mystery writer. Some are romantics and some will be realists or have PTSD. The fact that he has not introduced himself might make people suspicious. this may be going on too long. There is a slowly growing sense of suspense which will hopefully soon be revealed.

Most of my readers are loving this, but there are a few suspicious ones. Someone even thinks she might end up murdered. This will be a healing tonic for the love damaged, so I continue on. Thank you for the excellent review. Sending you my best today as always,

Comment from Mystic Angel 7777
You deliver another beautifully penned letter of overwhelming and abiding love for our reading enjoyment. I'm not too sure I'd be thrilled about going under the knife on Halloween LOL - seems a little spooky to me. I thoroughly enjoyed this, especially how you are addressing any doubts the readers may have about this guy as you proceed in the story. Well done and thank you very much for sharing it.

Thank you very much, dear Angel. It's good to have you with me in this series. I'm not suspicious at all, thus the Halloween surgery. I'm glad you're enjoying my tandem love stories.

Comment from Robert Zimmerman
Hello Sal. You are doing really fine job of keeping the "suspense" going between the secret admirers. It is hard to keep interest when there are no encounters, especially in a love story but you have done is with good written dialogue. Z

Thank you for the excellent review of my continuing love story. My husband and I exchanged letter and cards during our long courtship. We were young and he oftentimes hand-delivered them to my bedroom window. Sending you my best today as always, Z.

You're very welcome Sal. I hope you have a great week. Z. (*_*)
Comment from Debbie Pope
I am still mesmerized with your story, Sally, and praying for a happy ending. I think that I like the idea of this secret lover. How romantic. Of course we readers are building this up so much in our minds, it's going to be tough not to disappoint us.
Thank you for this idea, Sally. I await the next letter.

Thank you, dear Debbie. I don't think you'll be disappointed as true love on the earth is a taste of heaven. It does have a few . . . twists. You probably knew that already. Stay tuned.
Sending you my best today as always,
Sally xoxo
