Isn't it awesome to have such a large group of friends on this site? And you're right that you can become attached to people you've never met. Writing is a strong bond between us, but the friendships reach much farther than that. Good post! Blessings. Carol

I liked reading this. We all need to work on making and keeping friends. It is so true that you could have a friend or acquaintance in every country if you stay on this website long enough. Nice post.

All right. I think we have to limit you to one post a week because I won't have enough sixes in stock! Just kidding. You can post every day because they are always written with love in your pen.

Debi, you are ever so right in your essay concerning the members on this site. A true family without ever have seen or possibly ever spoken with. We are tied together!

I loved your MUSH WARNING, warning...

Never change, DPM.

Cheers to your excellent entry.
John

Thank you for for playing that song and theme song of one of the quaintest and iconic sitcoms I've ever watched, I've only just finished watched it for a second time in its entirety. Like you Elaine and I have thre friends of forty years standing, and many who have come and gone, some have tragically died, you are one ofbthe memorable ones, always cheerful despite reason to complain, but you prefer the shining sun and laugh at the grey with a definable faith in the one who loved us enough to died for us, beautifully written, a selfless, honouring post, thank you dear friend, blessings Roy

What you have so eloquently described is not a group of writers but a real family. This is the very best and most true definition of a family. There is little or no jealousy here. No mom likes you better, none of that. This is a loving family. Haters are identified and either transformed, or ignored to the point of being isolated and exiled to an island of loneliness.

    I got it and I thank you so much. If not careful you are going to swell my head so high I will float away.

Oh, Debi... I still miss Jan too. I go to read her work which we are so blessed to have here beneath the glow of her eternal flame.

You are so right. People here are like family... We look out for one another, we support one another, we encourage, pray, laugh, cry, share news, etc...

While all of your birthday poems remind us of this camaraderie...it's important that we remember and appreciate the blessings we have here--and to never forget to say thanks, and I appreciate you...and oh, I'd miss you so if we were apart!

Here's to you...and to the many friends who make me smile as I listen to the Golden Girls theme song!

I started laughing at the top..."MUSH WARNING!" maybe that needs to be added to the warnings. And of course, by the time I finished the story, my eyes were misty because you have a unique way to personally connecting with your reader, be it poetry or prose. Exceptionally well done. Terry.

Even as a fairly new member to the Fanstory community, I have experienced the warmth, the compassion, and the encouraging support of which you w.rite. I know I have friends here who understand and support me as a woman and a writer. Thanks for being one of them.

AMEN!!! Yes, we can't help but come attached to the people here. If you don't, then there's something wrong with you. As author's one puts themselves out there, even prose, mostly poets though. We need a friendly safe environment to improve our writing and ourselves.

It's funny you should mention this. I feel the same about many people on this site. When I don't find a review or post from them, I panic. I check the forum section here. Or I will message them privately. This was a wonderful tribute. I hope I can be counted among those special people. Gretchen
