I agree. I wouldn't what to share space with Jaxon, either.

Thanks, Gail. It took a while to write Losing Your Fear and I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I love how you wrote from the focus of the two children alone. So many pieces like this drag the parents into the story and dilute the experience between the two core characters. Your writing style and perspective made this a thrill to read. Awesome work. That twist was a doozy. I wonder what kind of world is on the other side.

Thanks so much Rebecca. I had fun writing Losing Your Fear. I delighted you enjoyed the story.

*I'm delighted. That's one mistake I can't blame on autocorrect.

PS I thought this story would more be fun without parents hovering over the kids. I'm glad you liked that, too.

That could easily be converted to a short movie script.

Thanks, Dan. I'm thinking about a novella version of Losing Your Fear (unless, of course, a movie studio pings me first).
