Barbara, I like this chapter. It is kind of a slow down moment and fits right in. Love the story about the Flowers. This has a fairy tale like quality. Great imagery and the emotions are electric. Blessings. Queenise

Hey Barbara,
Great chapter! Loved your hubby's artwork as well, he has a nice eye for colors.
As always, I enjoy that you have taken the time to add the different services for anyone reading to get the help they may need.
Your characters are realistic and their problems are those current with today. Your writing moves me. Another wonderful chapter.
I could find nothing to suggest how to make this better.
Have a wonderful vacation and enjoy your family! CJ

I like it when there's a story within a story, and this chapter is blessing us with double stories about the Indian Paint Brush. I enjoyed reading about them so much in this fast-paced writing about overcoming the affects of an abusive past.

Your Author Notes provide a great service with information for people who need to reach out to someone who's in trouble. Thank you for sharing Barbara. Great job, Josie (I also enjoyed the artwork and you're so fortunate to have a hubby who can help you enhance your postings.)

Hi, barbara. Please tell your husband that I very much enjoy his artwork in your illustration. I think he shows real talent and hope he will forge ahead!

Your chapter was really enhanced by the telling of the Indian legends. Some foreshadowing with the three mysterious calls - but in these kinds of situations progress is rarely linear. I like your character of Troy very much - his kindness is touching and inspiring. You have created a very empathetic character in him.

Have a great and well-deserved vacation, barbara. You've been busy churning out chapters so I hope you come back refreshed and renewed. Kind regards, Bev

Anna handed her Michael.

There's something funny about that sentnce - I know what you're trying to say, but it doesn't flow - make sense?

Nice background on the flowers - fits in well.

He's not a struggling artist - that's better than some pictures I do

Hope all is well

Michael

This was a good read from beginning to end, as usual. The story about the Indian maiden was a nice touch of pointing out gently Anna's insecurities and giving her some hope.

This was a good chapter, Barbara. I especially enjoyed the myths of the flowers' color changing.

Only a couple of concerns:

I don't how to handle all this help." [Did you leave out a word?]
