I don't think I could have managed it without you. <br /><br />It would be wonderful if one day we too could meet in person - but with our shared love of books and four legged critters, we already know each other so well, that it would just be the icing on the cake!Hywela Lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13789711554354184386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2429560125838989988.post-9708492452759243172012-05-29T21:33:22.157+01:002012-05-29T21:33:22.157+01:00Hi Paula

I am truly blessed to have such good and supportive friends, such as yourself. Even if we never meet in person, it's amazing how well folk can get to know each other in the writing community!Hywela Lynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13789711554354184386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2429560125838989988.post-85913373275566704872012-05-29T21:28:59.210+01:002012-05-29T21:28:59.210+01:00Hi Sarah,

How wonderful to meet her parents and sister too, they must have been so thrilled to meet you, knowing how much Sharon meant to you both.<br />And you are right about the writing community and the mutual support.
