The reader feels like she is there with the future president in the blizzard. Your description of the scenery creates a feel for being there. I enjoy reading about Abe Lincoln and your story takes the reader back to another time and place.

I am delighted I could put you there in New Salem so many years ago. Many thanks for sharing my story, mermaids.

I really enjoyed this story, and your author notes really enhanced it. You picked the perfection artwork for your illustration. I'm impressed you told such a heartwarming story in 199 words, one less than the maximum.
Best of luck in the contest! Great writing!
You got my vote!

What a wonderful little fictional write -- love all of the historical fictions as they always seem to bring the 'figures' down to earth and real to everyone! ;) Thank you for sharing and good luck in the contest! ;)
