Your contest entry is in great form, though extremely
poignant, Mystery Author. You wrote of your pain not
knowing your father. I could feel the longing for that
special relationship. I agree. There will come a time
when you and he can build on what could've been.
Best wishes in the contest, Jan

-Good artwork for an excellent story.
-You have a good style of writing and story telling
that holds our interest.
-I can't imagine all of these things happening
in your life at such a young age.
-You get across how important he was to you
even though he had left, and you make us
feel the pain of having to pretend that he was
there for your special moments in life.
-You also have a good way of building your story as
you talk about living with your grandmother, and how
you came upon information about your father on
your grandmother's death certificate.
-You have some very good imagery when you talk
about finding his obituary.
-I am glad you got to visit with your sister, but I am
sorry the way it turned out. Sometimes there is
no explanation for why people do things they do.
-You have a very good conclusion and a positive point of view,
considering the upheavals in your life.
-I look forward to seeing who you are, and
wish you the best of luck in the contest. You deserve it!!

This is a very powerful story about separation. It is hard for children to understand how their parent or parents could walk away from them and even later in life refuse contact. Your father may have felt so much guilt that he dared not face you. I know that you are right that you will be reunited and the wounds will be healed. I'm sorry that things fell apart between you and tour sister.

Rejection is a terrible thing, and I'm so sorry for these events in your life, I've watched a few shows on TV that show how alienation differs and affects people, my sympathy, thank you for sharing, well done, blessings Roy

Oh dear you went through a lot. What right did she have to be jealous? She should be a shame of herself. I hope your father is with the Lord. I feel so bad for for you. So many children have to live without their dad. Take care and trust the Lord.

This is so funny, because your half sister become jealous of you after your father left both of you. I wonder why. Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings and the contest.
