The quality of your writing is far superior to many published so-called literary novels and your sensibility and writing personality deeply appealing. I have followed the mysterious stay in Wales and your return with bated breath. And that suspense promts me to comment, finally. Have you thought of stitching this altogether as a novel? It really would work. Gradually add in the painful facts of what actually prompted the trip and the return, maybe expand with some childhood flashbacks and I am utterly convinced that it would be amazing. I have just finished Sadie Jones’s novel The Outcast currently being acclaimed in the UK and suggest that your blog is much better. I know it seems a mad comment from a stranger – but do give it some thought.

With best wishes and hope for your financial future and improving happiness.
