Thanks for the great finish. I love the way you have ended the story and do love the fairy tale style way it has been created. I can even put myself into the role of either Alex or George and feel the emotion. Of course I prefer the role of Alex, but who wouldn't.
Hugs,
Lisa

Hi Karin,
Wow. Great story. Sure hope that you can finish it and get it on Crystal's Story Site or let us know where we can find it and read the rest. I sure hope that Alex can stay and become the teacher she has been working for even if she did not realize it. And that her Dad can come to grips with her status.
Thanks for the great story.

Great story, I'm hooked and I keep watching for more. Please finish it or at least a couple of more chapters. You just can't leave us hanging!
Please

Please more, more, more...

More, more,more please. It's just now becoming interesting ya know!

Karin,
I have been spellbound and hooked as you have forwarded and fleshed out all of the episodes through #15.  You have carefully brought the story to a wonderful nodal point!!  The story is ready to explode.  So much is possible following from episode #15. My mind raced ahead with possibilities for Alex and George.  You have the makings of a true tragedy or a wonderful, possibly hard-won happy ending, particularly for Alex and Melissa. You have built the intensity carefully and your characters are drawn so well, and have the ring of authenticity, particularly Alex and George's mother, father and Gram.  No matter how you end the story, it will be a heart-strings tugger.  
Terrific Writing!
Love and energy to you,

Kay  Whitefield

Thank you for your comments and taking the time to read the story. The story is now being released on The Big Closet and although not as far on as here, it has been edited so you may find it a better read. I hope you continue reading it.

One thing does frustrate me though and that is the references to smoking that crop up from time to time. As a veteran CD myself I can say that a high proportion of CD's do smoke. There seems to be a trend in society today that wants smokers airbrushed from society or banished to some foreign land as we did with leper's in the past.

All smokers have seen and read the health finding's and know that it is bad for them but some continue to do so and until cigarettes are withdrawn from sale or banned entirely then people will continue to smoke. Health survey's are always spun in a way that makes the figures look bad for smoking. How many survey's have you seen where they have printed the number of smokers who smoke all their lives and don't suffer one of the diseases it causes. The answer to that is none, because it is spun in a way to make people anti smoking.

Smoking is a risk, anyone who does it knows that but then life is a risk and no one knows what is in front of them. You could just as easy go out on the road and be killed in a road crash, or develop any number of diseases which may prove fatal. In the UK just now even going into hospital to get cured for some minor ailment carries a high risk with MRSA and CDif almost day to day occurences in UK Hospitals.

I am sorry if this sounds like a rant but I do wish that people would just read the story for what it is. Like it or not some people do find some women very sexy when they smoke, I include myself as one of them and it has nothing to do with IQ. Never mind the smell, the act the way they hold the cigarette, inhale and exhale, can be so erotic to some, just as some person may find nice legs,stocking's lingerie a turn on then some people have that feeling for a smoking woman.

It may seem unkind to make these comments about what is indeed a good story, basically, one in which the plot is believeable and the characterization excellent, but, it is flawed, it is badly marred by so many mistakes - you really need a word processor programme that edits and checks spelling properly, or better still, a Proof Reader, and the other annoying thing in it is that there is far too much smoking.  Real girls do NOT smoke all the time, and those who do are trying to cut down or give it up, it is now understood by everyone with an IQ over 80 that it seriously harms our health and we most of us do want to live and be healthy enough to enjoy seeing our children grow up before we have to go.  Alex is also drinking far too much - if (s)he goes on at this rate, (s)he will be needing the same help as Cousin George !

It's just a wonderful story.  And I think it strikes a chord in every TG gurl's heart.  I know it does with me!  Keep up the good work.

I sure do hope that you are going to continue this story!?  It seems so realistic in its tale that somehow I could see myself doing much the same thing. Oh, gee, would that be because I am full time TS?LOL!   Anyway, please do continue this wonderful story, it is just warming up it seems and getting better with each episode.

                       Sincerely

This is looking like a wonderful story so far, and so recogniseably realistic, too.

Can't wait to see more and see how it develops.  I waited eagerly for the second part, and was delighted to see it finally arrive.  More the point, I was even more pleased when I found it HAD been WORTH waiting for!

Please, please please keep up the great work Karin!!!

Love and hugs, Jayne x

Get a move on it Karin.  This story is too good to wait for the two page additions.  Take a vacation and write, write, write.  Yeah, I know I'm selfish and you got things to do, but I really love your story.

This is very well written.  It's a great start and I look forward to the next instalment.

I will be interested to see how Alex is coaxed into wearing Grace's clothes.  The situation so far is highly believable - just what I look for in a story.

Solid setup.  Looking forward to more.

An intriging 1st part with lot's of promise too come i am betting.I am looking forward eagerly too the next part when i take it Alex will find the solution too George's problem's.Thank you for a good story.

Sad.  Sad.  Sad!  Not the Story.  The introduction to the story is excellent.  It's one of the best lead couple pages I ever read. But that's the problem.  I want to know what happens next and I don't see the second part of this story in the que.  Thanks for the wonderful appetiser.  BUT GIVE ME MORE KARIN!
