"Game of Thrones"  "The Iron Bank of Braavos" 



Hi Annette

My name is Lyn, I am one of the sly foxes.

Title: Walk Barefoot in the Sand Everyday

First Impression: I chose this story to review because of the driftwood. I've collected quite a few pieces myself over the years and have woodburned special reminders from my life. One of my favorite pieces is a long slender piece that could easily be mistaken for a baseball bat with the engraving "walk in the moment" and it hung over door as a daily reminder to always live in the moment.

What needs your attention: In this sentence: "It wasn't large living, but they had been able to make a go out of this for years and life was good." I believe you forget a, It wasn't a large living sounds better to this reader.

What part I liked best: I could relate to Curt's feeling about each piece being unique and that the price should reflect that. I've made baby blankets and wall hangings for people, it's heartbreaking when they haggle over the price. The time and craftmanship involved are never appreciated.

Overall impression: I was saddened that Curt gave up his dream but understood the pressure of supporting a family. I agree a house feels dead to me as well when there aren't craft projects in progress. Despite GOT I have a frog wallhanging going to hang in our kitchen for summer. The frogs are doing different cooking tasks. My granddaughter drew them and I'm doing the embroidery and we will quilt it together.

The story about a family barely making ends meet faced with the challenges ahead was relatable. The pacing was good and the characters were believable.
