"But the strange new pieces of her life didn’t seem to have room for him."
That was heart breaking. I'm hooked - anxious to read the next one.
PS I didn't notice any rusty-ness at all!

Well, you don't really seem to be rusty! I like the idea and I'm looking forward to the next update.

Well - nothing like a nice, brisk flurry of writing to knock that rust off! I suggest you write MORE...SOON...and you will be nicely warmed up. (Does this count as begging?) Just in case you missed it - I loved this! Please don't leave us hanging too long.

This is gorgeous. I love the idea that Pam builds a new life full of color and beauty but still has tht old ache for him. And I can't wait to see how she ends up with Jeremy in her expensive shoes. Great work so far!

Kestrel, this is so lovely and I'm really glad you're continuing with it.
This paragraph is especially fine: “I finally got the nerve to walk her home from church one day, and before we knew it I was walking her to our own little house.” Pam loved the inevitability of their courtship, its plainness like whorled wood. She pictured long skirts and sweet, almost-smiles, and maybe linked hands and wildflowers.
I hope we hear more from you soon.
