Yes, you did leave us hanging and wondering. Love the story. I'll keep reading so I can finish the chapters. Quite a great story. Will they marry or is life in turmoil as they experience the old truck swaying.

You are a master at writing. Sure wish I could tell you my bio as a story and you would write the book. As I read your writings, I must acknowledge that I am truly a novice here. Thanks for sharing.

Plenty of action in this chapter. The scene between you and the nurse is particularly well described and you've left us with a real cliff-hangar at the end. A gripping love story.

This story continues telling us of the tales of love between the mountain folk. I enjoyed the descriptive references and the homespun humor. The intensity of Cathy's love is well defined and the resisting love story shared by Grandpa and Grandma adds depth to this. Well done you two.

It took a bit of getting used to the interjection of writings, poems and memories but it seems to work well into your story line.
I hope they are both alright ... but did they lose Grandpa in the truck accident?
I didn't see any thing to correct.

Okay. Loving it still. I really like reading about Cathy and Bill. I know it's wrong but I probably would have kicked that nurse on the way out. Lol I'm really not the violent type but I was glad when you fired her. This is such a sweet compelling and engaging love story. Thank you for sharing Cathy and Bill's story with us! Beautifully written!

Hey, guys!

Another good chapter. I'm glad the stuff with that nurse got worked out. *smile* I hope everybody's okay! That wasn't a very nice place to leave everything!!!

Some notes for you --
1.) You were about 14 then...if my memory's correct.(")
--> you also use double qmark inside this paragraph for 'you-know-what' instead of single

2.) awaking from a dream of fishing in a stream and catching Speckled Mountain Trout.(")

3.) Grandma told me once that Grandpa's nose is always cold when he kisses her.(")

That's it! I look forward to more. Good luck!

This is very readable for the most part. When I got to this sentence, I thought it just needed a specified, ordinary romantic overture. Bill was teasing, wanting Cathy to snuggle up closer, so he could...Awww, better not say!
If you are aiming for a family audience, I would just say something like "so he could kiss her ear," or "so he could nibble her ear." I like the quote about God saying love was going to teach us songs for our tomorrows. Nice chapter addition!

    Hi There! Thank you so much for reading and reviewing Chapter 10 of Love Long Distance. We appreciate your notes and understand what you mean. However, that's the way Bill talks (Smoky Mountain style), so we had to stay true to his character. Glad you enjoyed it anyway. We hope you'll come back for the next chapter. It's currently in the works and coming soon.
    Wishing you a great weekend!
    God Bless,
    Bill & Cathy
