I was compelled to read this story a second time and it was even better.  I don't quite understand why but your writing of this one drew me right back to it.

Comment by Mariah on 04/10/13
Janet, Thank you for sharing this very personal and painful part of your life with me.  Through much of this story I was in tears as I realized it had to be written from a first person experience, one that reflects my own life in many ways.  After reading a few of your stories a bond formed between us that I now understand, a shaky footbridge that we have both crossed with great fear and anxiety has fallen into the abyss.  We will not miss that bridge because we now have found the place in life where we should have been born.  Looking back, I now understand our life before we crossed the abyss was necessary for us to appreciate where we are now and all the future holds for us.  

As I continue to read, your stories will be much more than a screen of words for my amusement, you Janet, have become a real living friend that found the courage to share a part of your life with us that much of the public forces us to hide for our own survival.

Thank you dear...Mariah

A wonderfull storie that brought me to tears.

Comment by Diane on 08/21/09
Words cannot describe the inner workings of my being, except to thank the author for the sharing of her Self.

Comment by Alyssa on 07/30/08
I liked the opening statement and the story was very enjoyable, as well as filled with emotion.  A fitting punishment for the crime in question, but good that after the initial shock s/he starts to enjoy it.  The protagonist's challenges were all very real and you depicted it well.  It must have been difficult to go through similar challenges yourself, but from the sounds of your stories, it worked out for you eventually.  Another great read Janet ^_^

Comment by Molly on 03/13/08
Shades of Les Misérables, with someone acting in desperation, breaking in to steal a dress rather than a loaf of bread, to feed starving emotions. Just to put things in perspective, some people attempt suicide as a cry for help... This story truly describes a hero's journey, by any definition.

In her forward, Janet describes this story as "weak descriptions" of what the path looks like. I would have to agree-- in any American high school I've ever heard of, the main character would have been beat up to within an inch of her life the first time "he" wore a dress to school.

i stand by my previous comments a good story punishment to fit the crime what a way to go

Comment by Stanley Morton on 06/29/07
Andrea becomes the woman she had inside thanks to her friends. But we know that it is really Janet Lynn Stickney that gave that speech. I believe that you gave your speech and your friends accepted the real Janet. Nobody can write such thought provoking stories without living them first. Janet, you have a friend here.

Comment by Janice Lynn on 04/28/07
This is a very sweet story regardless of the crime committed. Andrea truly blossomed after she was placed into a position to do so. It would be so nice if all people were as accepting of those who are different as Andrea's school mates became.
Thank you for an excellent story, Hugs, Janice

Comment by juliej on 06/15/05
a great story of punihment to fit the crime and then backfireing this is what he wanted all along and his mother helped him it was intersting that his father understood it easily great story welldone

Comment by Jill on 04/27/05
I have read many of Janets stories, this one brought tears to my eyes.  It moved me more than I thought it would and it gave me sense that there were tears when this was wrote.  It is a heartfelt story that shows what happens when we take advantage of the opportunities.

Comment by Eric on 02/01/05
One of Janet's better ones, IMO.  I thought the ending was particularly good.

Comment by Diane Sutton on 04/23/02
Somewhere there must be a boy like this out there. That I'm sure of. This story may indeed have a correlation to real life. It could happen where a boy gets caught in a situation such as this one and that's what I've been looking for all my life. Just too old now.

But, Janet knows well the little things that happen in ones life and the possible outcome of these things. I think that this story allows the readers to wish that they may have been that boy who eventually becomes the person he wished he was born as.

A nice story to pass the time with.

Diane

      The importance of reader feedback cannot be overstated.   Authors rely on it to improve their future works, and it gives them the incentive to write more stories if they know that their hard work has been appreciated.  I am not saying that comments must all be lauditory.  Authors often appreciate honest, constructive criticism over simple remarks like 'Great story', although simple praise is appreciated also.  There is no limit on how much you can enter in the 'comments' box.   Sentences will automatically word wrap at the end of the line so please do not use your carriage return/enter key except at the end of your paragraphs.
