Subject: RE: Sitting At The Kitchen Table
There's a very simple principle here, Amos. Elmer was very positive about my writing ability, as were several others on here, including jimmyt. Ya never know how much good you do, just letting someone else know that you appreciate what they're doing. My brother-in-law
Everett is probably my greatest appreciator, but he's not a Mudcatter. He called me yesterday and said, "I need some more reading material!" Bro Everett lives in a retirement complex, and he has a whole group of people who are reading what I send to him. When he gets mail from me, he usually knows it because someone else saw that he had an envelope. Some come knocking on his door at eleven o'clock at night, when they hear he's received a new envelope. None of them are members of Mudcat, either.

Interestingly, several people who have been very supportive and encouraging about my writing are not Christians. Some are Atheists.
It takes a big man to understand how small we all are.
