Ha ha ha.. oh I do know who that is...
and how very very wonderful for you.
She is such a lovely person and always extrememly supportive.
I am having so much difficulty with my Fan page.
I believe we are Fans... the issue is I do not see any of your posts ...even though we are Fans??
I happened upon this writing of yours by accident... I did ask Tom at least 5 times why don't I get all my various Fans posts and are they getting mine... he never answered that question..
Which drives me crazy...

"Tom" I think at times is an automated response. I had an issue like that once. Try fanning me again. I?ll look on my end if I?m a fan of yours. If not I will fan you.
Thanks for reading my post?

What a wonderful surprise that must have been for you. And on your behalf... thanks K .... Nina.
I've been a member for 10+ years... but I'm back after a brief absence of the last couple of years. Feels good to be writing creatively again... and receiving my first time in awhile Recognized and All Time Best awards. No matter when or how few... it's nice to be recognized. Good job... I am sure you deserved it.

Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
This is a very interesting article. Your starts with a K and ends with nina is the best of the reviewers to read through your long portfolio. That is what people do for friends and family. On FS we are all very different, which makes our writing even more interesting to read.

Jmdg, I realized who this person was before you mentioned her name. She's a great person to me and many of us have the honor of calling her, a friend. She is the best and so are you for sharing this selfless piece! Best, JohnC

Comment from Father Flaps
Hi John,
I went through the very same thing a few weeks ago. I couldn't believe my eyes! Karenina went all the way back to June of 2010 (when I joined Fanstory) and reviewed every single poem that was stuck at 14 or 25 reviews. Because of her kindness, Fanstory sent me 38 either "Recognized" or "All Time Best" notifications!!! I was totally flabbergasted. She worked on my portfolio well into the night, way past the witching hour. Actually, the Sun was starting to peek out on the horizon. It blew me away! And I've been trying to think of a way to reward her for such awesome charity. But how? "Thank you so much" doesn't seem enough. Her acts of kindness are exactly as you put it... "unsung". She is the ultimate "Reviewer of the Year" in my opinion.
I'm so glad you wrote this piece for her.
Nicely penned!
Cheers,
Kimbob

Comment from Navada
What a lovely story and a great example for those of us who are still relatively new here. This reviewer has also reviewed some of my work (as I have reviewed hers). She's a great writer and a very positive, helpful reviewer in my experience as well. Thanks for sharing this and I hope she is adequately rewarded for her kindness.

Well that's because she is a wonderful angel. I enjoy her so much.
Glad she gave you a happy ending...er ...wait let me rephrase that. Glad she made you happy. It's a cool thing to do. I like to go in and give a six to old pieces that were long ago overlooked. It's fun and I love to read. Have a great weekend!

And now we all know who that reviewer is. Lol. I have to say, it was a lovely thing to do. No wonder you were surprised.
I found a few things: que =queue
Their are many which are stronger the others = There are many which are stronger than others
Even better then = than
All best, Ulla:)))

It must have felt like it was Christmas!
Their are many which are stronger the others, - Maybe -- (There) are many (who) are stronger (than) the others,
Thank you for this post. Best wishes.
