Superb as always, dear Jay. My, Zachary was a world traveler before his employment at NYCDoHD. Life has certainly developed Zachary long before he met Mr. Kincaid. A delightful, tender read. Sending you my best today as always,

Thank you so much, Sally. I'm so happy you are enjoying the Zachary character. He's one of my favorites of all I've created. Your six stars are a delight!

Comment from GWHARGIS
I love this. The nuances of the relationship between Kincaid and Zachary are phenomenal. I see a breakthrough coming between them. It's as if each had their own story but will only understand their own by listening to the other's story. Great job, Jay.

You are are catching exactly what I wanted you to in their interaction, Gretchen. Thank you for reading with such depth.
Comment from Jasmine Girl
I really like the dialogue now and understand that the colorful fiction Zachary produced. Musicals are supposed to be funny and full of nonsense. I visited Broadway in NYC and saw about three musicals there. I just visited Firenze, too last May and it was full of wonder of art and art museums.
Excellent.

Yes the dialogue takes a couple of scenes before the reader can internalize the poetic rhythm of Zachary's life and begin to enjoy the dialogue. Desperation begins the next scene. Again, thanks for the six lovely stars, Lisa. I'm waiting for the bird people to return. Any time soon?

Oh, I love this. Zachary takes Mr Kinkade on an emotional ride and he he does it so very well.
I do realise you've written a similar play quite a while back but this one so much more together. I love it. Now off to Japan. Ulla:)))

Thank you so much, Ulla. Yes, the play a long time ago was a three act play that took the journey full circle. The music, if we get it pulled off, will spell the biggest change! Again, your six stars and enthusiastic commentary is always welcomed and loved!

Mr Kincade is beginning to grow on me:
little demand for people like you... and yet I cannot resist seeing this through to the end (even though it's draining me. Interesting. Kate xx

Yes, Kincade has some staying power. Zachary won't let him give up on himself and he is growing through his experience with the young man.

I am honestly begining to believe there is no end to Zachary's travel or talking. I do NOT mean that in a bad way. I am honestly enjoying reading and smiling as I read.

So happy that you stopped by, Barbara. And I can't ask any more than having you smiling as you read. The six stars is mighty nice, as well. Thank you. (I am still reeling about Mike's death. It all seems so unreal to me.)

I know. I think it was a shock to us all.
