Way to make me tear up on a Monday morning... You truly pushed the feels on this one! I see him packing the car and running into the wilderness anyway, with her ghost beside him or maybe following her ghost into a wild river...

I wrote it to make people feel something and a few have told me they did (on and off Hive) which makes me feel like I did a reasonable job. I write for myself really, and enjoyed this one, the process, although it made me feel things too. I am happy how this one turned out. In my mind the chap finds some peace, happiness even. We'll never know however.
Thanks for taking a read.
I always prefer an open ending, leaving it to the imagination a little. It's really well written and tugs at the old heart strings in an epic way.
You got some good readership on this one - I wrote a story last week the only person that really read and commented was @owasco, who I had to ask to read it, like a big desperate twat :P
Thank you...Ok for a dude who was told by his English teacher in year 12 I was useless and would never amount to anything. I should send it to her...Oh hang on, she's dead.
It's always hit and miss as far as people reading. I guess I shifted my paradigm towards just enjoying the writing and figure if someone reads it it's a bonus. So many skim anyway, make a cursory comment at the end based on the few words they read. I'm ok with it I guess. I had fun. Please send me the links to your fictions @riverflows, I'll read them. (I just get so damned busy I miss things at times.)
and she is so glad you did!!
