    Repeats to self: 'must not compare to other writers.' *laughs*

    Simon, your output is incredible. Are you always like this? I've had another faff week. Thank goodness for poems.

    Your story "Bonemeal" will haunt me for a long time. So well done.

    Simon, you truly are talented! The line story, that was just sad. I hope you go over and read what I wrote...

    And I think your submission to 5x5 was clearly the best of the whole group. It was clever...and creepy :)

    Have a great Sunday!

    MJ,

    Thanks. And you are awesome. Comparing yourself with other writers is a fool's game. I know because I do it all the time!

    Deborah,

    Hah! You're way more prolific than I. And, yes, as I said to MJ, comparing yourself is rarely constructive.

    I don't know if I'm always like this. I don't even know what it is I'm like!

    Words Crafter,

    You say the nicest things. I couldn't see any comments on the Hypotenuse story - maybe they've not been moderated yet. I'll obviously check back but thanks anyway.

    Have a great Sunday yourself!

    Ellie,

    It's lovely of you to say. I don't really feel like I shine much though!
