I'm glad you're enjoying the story and I'm particularly glad that the answer to most of your questions is "Wait and see!" It either means that you're good readers or I'm a good writer (I hope both!).

I was wondering through chapter seven where all of the other prisoners were?

Hi! i really enjoyed this chapter of "I Will Come Home". This story had me sitting on the edge of my seat. I think this is the climax of the story because she finds a man in the hay pile. She finds him and he is an escape prisoner. She doesn't know what to do and that is where the story ends. Can't wait for chapter 8 and chapter 9!

This is not a question or comment about the serial story but I would really like to know if you like being an author a lot or just a little bit and what inspired you to become an author?

I love writing. Any time you can do the thing you most want to do all day long and get paid for it, that's great! I wasn't really "inspired" to do it -- it was just something I enjoyed and that I was good at, so it seemed pretty sensible to try to make a living that way. If I'd been really good at football, I'd have wanted to to that.
But sometimes an athlete becomes a coach or a phys ed teacher, not an NFL star, just like someone who loves hunting and fishing might become a forest ranger or maybe would open a sporting goods store.

I like this serial story so far. I was so suspicious about who was the egg and milk thief. I would rate this story a 10 and 1/5.
Posted by: Melika Zehr | 03/21/2013 at 03:10 PM
I thought at first that an animal was steeling the eggs the when I read that the cow wasn't producing as much milk as they used to produce so then i knew it had to be an excaped prisoner.
