Yet another solid write for you, Barbara. Well done. I am following Anna's story with mounting interest. Good dialogue and feeling.

I'm glad to see this story continuing in a positive way. Yes she can do it and if she continues to use those words as her mantra she will. Well done.

I read this closely for SPAG, but found none. Your novel is developing nicely. You leave the reader in a place that allows for open questions. She still has some doubts, but she also has courage, wanting to get on with it. Until the reader gets to the next chapter, though, he/she will not know for sure which will win out.

Good job.

Jay

One element of an abusive relationship is controlling basic decision making. That is the tactic that Booby used on Anna and that is why she acts like an adolescent leaving home for the first time. This was interesnting and it reinforces Anna's handicap in her trying to make a life away from her former spouse.

This is another good chapter in this ongoing series. The message of abuse is so important to spread. Knowing what these women have to go through to obtain the safety that they seek.

Hi, Barbara. Everything seems smooth and okay it makes me wonder what comes next. But I trust you would continue to give Anna the life she deserves ... :) (This story comes out all right. Happy holidays.)

You're working while on your vacation! What I read was interesting. Are dividing your chapters into small posting parts or is this a whole chapter? It looks like she's getting a lot of help. Hopefully, she will be safe in the new apartment. Good writing, Barbara.

    This is the second part of one chapter. There is at least one more post, maybe two. I appreciate your kind review.

Hullo Barbara ....

Your story is unfolding well, filled with people who care and understand the plight of Anna and her young son Michael.
This is well written and easy to read. Now, of course, I look forward to the next chapter.
Love from .... Nanette Mary.

Excellent chapter, as usual. I have an uneasy feeling that Bobby will do something unethical, whether it's trying to harm Anna or destroy her furnishings. I wish someone like Hulk Hogan were with her.

"I doubt it, probably Bobby. / if he doubts it, then how come he says probably Bobby. You should probably say, "I am not sure, maybe Bobby?

Great chapter to add to the overall story. I really enjoy your writing.
