I just searched online and it doesn't appear to be available anymore. It was published in <i>The South Carolina Review</i> Spring 2013 edition, so it's an old story. I'll try to find a copy. Thanks for your support! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-time-no-see-2#post-1900066 Tue, 20 Mar 2018 03:23:04 +0000 Anonymous 1900066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm completely intrigued by your re-entry post. Where is the short story that Mochi describes? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-time-no-see-2#post-1900060 Tue, 20 Mar 2018 02:50:43 +0000 nancylee 1900060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all so much for the warm welcome back!</p> <p>Angie, It never ceases to amaze me how connected and attentive you are to every member of YLF. I love your phrase of being "on a good wicket!" You are truly the best! &nbsp;</p> <p>Mochi, I'm so flattered that you remember details from one of my short stories! Thank you. Hope your writing life is progressing....it can be such a challenging road. Feel free to PM me on anything writing related and, in the meantime, keep the faith.</p> <p>Diana, I'm in Monterey so come visit! It's AMAZINGLY beautiful here...but I think you already know that!</p> <p>To all who have responded (veteran and new), thank you for your encouragement and support. &nbsp;I'll let you know how things progress with the novel. My agent is optimistic and wonderfully supportive, so I'm feeling very lucky in that department. </p> <p>I'm a bit battle-worn from the past few years....but also wiser and more resilient and open-hearted so that's a good tradeoff in my opinion!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-time-no-see-2#post-1900047 Tue, 20 Mar 2018 02:02:26 +0000 anne 1900047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&nbsp;I remember you Nancylee!<br />Seems like you have had a hard time - my commiserations.</p> <p>WELL DONE on completing a novel. I'm not going to wait to praise you - that is a great achievement in itself. I am very impressed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-time-no-see-2#post-1900028 Mon, 19 Mar 2018 23:57:53 +0000 Angie 1900028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>HOW LOVELY TO SEE YOU POP IN, <i><b></b></i><b>Nancylee. </b>Welcome back. <b></b></p> <p><b></b>You're been through <i>a lot -</i> my hat off to you - and I wish you every success with the new chapter of your life.

I’ve been active for three plus years. It sounds like you’ve been through a lot in the past few years. Writing a book and finding an agent to rep. your writing is worthy of congratulations even if the work hasn’t sold yet. Best wishes for success! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-time-no-see-2#post-1900010 Mon, 19 Mar 2018 21:49:34 +0000 Diana 1900010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi! &nbsp;It's so great to see you here again! &nbsp;Congrats on finishing the novel - I'd love to hear more about it if you'd like to share.</p> <p>PS - love the central california coast. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-time-no-see-2#post-1900009 Mon, 19 Mar 2018 21:42:58 +0000 Mochi 1900009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I totally remember you, Nancy, and the story you wrote about the divorced or divorcing couple with the three young sons. (I think they were at Disneyland?) I'm so proud of you for finishing your novel! I'm working on one myself. It's a huge achievement!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-time-no-see-2#post-1899995 Mon, 19 Mar 2018 20:36:10 +0000 The Cat 1899995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back! </p> <p>I have been here for (almost) one year. I understand the need for a break from YLF for various personal reasons, though four years sound like a very long time. It must be heartwarming to see that there are several fabbers who still remember you. And you will probably get familiar with several new members--and may enjoy reading their profiles (as I do). :-)</p> <p>Would like to hear more about your novel.</p> <p>Best wishes for you new life, </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-time-no-see-2#post-1899990 Mon, 19 Mar 2018 20:05:43 +0000 Ginkgo 1899990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad to hear from you again, Nancy!&nbsp; Welcome to California, I'm in the Bay Area not far from you.&nbsp; Looking forward to hearing about your new life and style, and most of all, the novel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/long-time-no-see-2#post-1899979 Mon, 19 Mar 2018 18:23:46 +0000 Kate 1899979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey Nancy, I remember you!

In the past four years I've separated/divorced (a sad and very emotionally challenging experience), completed writing a novel (finally....athough it's NOT sold, so no congratulations are in order yet!), signed with a literary agent, relocated from the East Coast to central coast California, and started a new university teaching job.&nbsp;</p> <p>Fashion-wise I've been on "pause" as I try to figure out how to dress in a new climate...and new life! But I've missed you all and the warm community of YLF. Looking forward to reconnecting. xo </p>
