Douglas Goff: If you Fanstorians were a fine spread of strawberry jam and I were a nutty peanut butter, I would mush together with you in a soft bed of white fluffy bread, waiting to be scarfed down by a hungry chunky monkey where we will be enshrined in the belly of love for eternity. Thought you should know. Sleep well.
    sandramitchell: Lol!!! Not sure of the monkey bit! 😂😂 -


Douglas Goff: If you Fanstorians were a canvas and I a painter, I would paint all over your collective body. Then I would hang you in the middle of my front room for the world to see my masterpiece. Yet, I would know that you were hidden beneath my doodles. Sleep well.


FanStory wrote to Douglas Goff: Magnum PI Was My Dad finished first in the contest "Forgiveness "
    Douglas Goff: I didn?t watch the vote on this and was surprised to see the win in messages. Thank you for this, but more important, so very many of you took the time to write out very detailed in-depth advice filled responses. Too many to list here. That meant the world to me. Thank you for that. -
    Sally Law: You deserved it. Heartbreaking true story. Praying for you.
    Sal XOs -

    Barbara Peabody Pouliot: Congrats, very well deserved. This piece was beautifully written. Thank you. -
    Douglas Goff: Thank you! Grandad would have been tickled! -


Douglas Goff: If you Fanstorians were a mighty dragon, and I were a glory seeking warrior. I would meet you in fierce combat, slay you, and mount your head above my thorn as a trophy! Sleep well.
    Barbara Peabody Pouliot: Lol -
    Carlos' girl: Okaaay -


Douglas Goff: If you Fanstorians were a tall glass of cold water and I was wandering lost in a desert, I would drink you all up. Then I would thank you for your sacrifice and be on my way. I thought you should all know what goes on in my head. Sleep well.
    Barbara Peabody Pouliot: Lol -


FanStory wrote to Douglas Goff: Guest Star Cancellation finished third in the contest "Long Live the King! "

    Douglas Goff: 100% correct 1Dreamer. Only this time, I?ll wear the dress and milk the emu. -


FanStory wrote to Douglas Goff: Eternal Darkness finished first in the contest "The Dark"
    Douglas Goff: I never expected a vampire story would win in 2023, as the genre gave way to ghosts in the mid 2010?s then that gave way to zombies more recently. Still I felt the sexy, night loving, happy go luck vamp was a huge miss. I enjoyed exploring the more bitter, angry, missing the sun aspect. I?m also overthinking this! Thank you FS people! -


Douglas Goff: What do you call a neighbourhood full of idle novelists?

Writer's block

Douglas Goff: Fanstory just ranked me as HOT. Somebody needs to let them know that I am a married man!
    damommy: hahahahahaha -
    country ranch writer: It means faking as being great in your writing silly not hot you're thinking! -
    Sandra Nelms-Ludwig: What's marriage got to do with not being hot? I know a few hot married men. However, this is about how others perceive your writing . -
    Susan Newell: I suspect you are very HOT?but definitely not available. Let the little old ladies here imagine you as the mythical knight in shining armor, somewhere off in the distance of the time-space continuum, slaying dragons and making the young ladies swoon. -

5-7-5 An Introspection In Seventeen Syllables Moments I Have Lived
I have found it rather amazing that an existence of time can be expressed in such few words and yet provide a specific and definitive explanation.

Great reviews:
Raw with emotion - love and pain, regrets and hope, truth and tragedy. It touched me at points, made me choke up.
