Hi, Elizabeth.

Yes, it is. It's my favorite picture of Lance when he was in Iraq. Ann Oborn painted me oil portrait from this picture and it's truly a gift from an angel.

Thanks, Tracey. You are so right. Our troops don't get enough credit where credit is due.

And tell your son I said THANKS! I appreciate and love him as one of my sons. My son, Casey, also served in Iraq. They are all brothers and we, as moms, are all united behind them, the cause, and our nation.

Good Job Laz!

Thanks for inviting me to read. And what a read it was. I thoroughly enjoyed the characters and believeable dialogue. All your characters have strong voice. Well done!

I would have liked to see a bigger hook at the end of the chapter, but I'm sure Chapter 3 will start off with a bang.

Best of Luck!

Ann,

I love how you began your story. It gave me a warm, fuzzy feeling. Then the tension mounted, pulling me along. So many wonderful comments above. Can't add much. Only to wish you the very best in this competition. Oh, and give you my ten.

Hi Nancy,

I was hooked from the beginning. From the first paragraph. This has TEN written all over it. Good luck in the contest!

Laz,

What a story--I loved it! The dialogue was fast-paced and to the point. My interest was held throughout the entire chapter. I can't wait to read more. I wouldn't change one thing!

Good luck in the contest Laz.
