Hi to both of you. It's a lovely story and so very romantic. Oh, I do believe in love at first sight. I've experienced it twice. The first lasted 16 years and produced our lovely daughter. The next just shy of 16 years. I like that you include some lovely poetry. All the best. Ulla:)))

Comment from Sally Law
This is sugar sweet you two. Filled with love, longing and sweet poetry. Dripping with the kind of love that lasts a lifetime and will never let go. Loved, loved this. The cursive was a little hard to read, but I have terrible vision so it's probably just me. Your self-designed cover art was awesome, Cathy. Expertly done. Wow, wow, wow. Did I say WOW? Enjoy your six.
Always my best to you both. You slayed it.

This item is absolutely perfect for me. I must enjoy every single aspect of the item. I must leave that particular item and feel like I would tell someone about it, think about it or refer to it with confidence later during the day. The Author has paid particular attention to the language used and the words were chosen. Every single grammar issue has been resolved and there are no spelling mistakes. I would highly recommend this item to a friend.

Comment from Shirley McLain
A beautiful story as well as poetry. I remember very well those pangs of hurt and love when your honey is not with you. It's agonizing. You did a wonderful job. Have a great day. Shirley

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
What a wonderful way to write this story, adding some beautiful, romantic poems of how you feel whilst apart. Your letters are so full of what's happening and what you wish for, bringing in the Beatles live show and how the audience was responding to them. (loved them!) And then Bill's letter, relating what was happening where he was, it all brought this piece alive. Well done, I look forward to the next part. :)) Sandra xx

First of all, Cathy, your cover design is exquisite and perfect for this amazing project! I enjoyed reading this chapter.
You give readers such pertinent details. It makes them feel as if they are there with the characters as each is in basic training or at their home with family. Both are experiencing the effects from separation of a loved one.
The inclusion of events happening simultaneously provide a great backdrop into events, people, etc, of the time period. You did a super job detailing the Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show.
Readers are receiving insights into the characters and what makes each tick. They are developing fondness for each and a desire to find out where this love story goes.
The inclusion of the poems adds great interest, too. I believe many a soldier poured out his heart to his 'significant other' in that same way (from what I've read etc.--wasn't there to witness firsthand). Each poem has a distinct 'voice' of the author and gives readers a true feeling of how much Cathy and Bill love and care for each other.
It will be super to follow this story as it unfolds. The decade of the 60's will provide much interesting 'things' to include for Cathy. Also, the Viet Nam War will provide Bill with much to write as it progresses in terms of the military POV.
Thanks for sharing.
Excellent!

Comment from Mistydawn
I knew I was going to tear up reading this. The letters, poems are so sweet, heartfelt it breaks my heart that they have to be so far away, not knowing when they'll see each other again, god willing they will. It's very well-written, draws a reader right in. Your characters seem so real, and your poems are beautiful.

Comment from LisaMay
You have captured the emotional feeling of being parted from the beloved really well in your chapter here. The inclusion of poetry is a nice touch, with a different 'voice' for each of the poets achieved. It looks like we are in for rather an emotional and romantic time.
