That may explain the confusion. Thanks for your attention to content and form.

However, I’m still puzzled. The first time I read it, the last story ended at the top of the last page. Actually, to be exact, I should say there was an empty page after that. It was a delightful story and I wasn’t expecting it to end so soon, but down further on the page there were the words “The End”. So not only was the story ending - that was the last story. I’d read them all! <br /><br />Now, having finished reading your book for the second time I’ll try to accept that it’s the same book and it’s because of my faulty memory that I can’t remember some of the stories, but what happened to “The End” after the last chapter, and where did the “Acknowledgments” come from? I really like your saying at the very end:<br /><br /> “May your best days be yet unseen,<br /> And may all your lights be green”<br /><br />And I wish that for you, too.Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11501834385402697756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31618082.post-53614155464871859062021-08-14T11:53:35.452-05:002021-08-14T11:53:35.452-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11501834385402697756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31618082.post-71526155542037349782021-08-14T11:15:40.993-05:002021-08-14T11:15:40.993-05:00I checked my mailboxes and did find your email (Ap...I checked my mailboxes and did find your email (April 19, 2014). Your memory is good. Thanks again for your gracious acknowledgment.<br />I think there are two possibilities regarding the number of pages in my book. Either the dog ate half of them or you were enjoying reading it so much that you hadn't noticed its length!

I remember it clearly because I had been so caught up in reading I didn’t realize I was so close to finishing it, but when I turned to the last page, there it was. It said “The End”. <br /><br />And I was very sad! So I sent you a note. It said something like “I absolutely loved reading your book, except when I came to the last page and read “The End”. You sent back a reply something like “Thank you for telling me. You made my day” By any chance do you remember that, Eugene?<br /><br />More recently I tried to find the book, I was sure I had it someplace, but finally settled on buying a new one. Great news, it has more pages! But I’ve been wondering … whatever happened to the thin book? Now I think I know. The puzzle is solved. <br /><br />Thanks for writing this delightful book that has brought much joy into so many peoples lives, including mine!Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11501834385402697756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31618082.post-55729353385780168172013-05-09T14:07:58.250-05:002013-05-09T14:07:58.250-05:00Probably unlike most I've just found the blog ...Probably unlike most I've just found the blog AFTER reading your book<br /><br />Loved the book and looking forward to making the most of your tips on a visit to NYC in August<br /><br />Now to catch up on years worth of missed blogs!!Carlosnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31618082.post-77741063383959738372013-03-10T23:27:55.331-05:002013-03-10T23:27:55.331-05:00I'll be honest, I forgot about this blog, I kn...I'll be honest, I forgot about this blog, I know I was here before but I guess I was just always drawn to your picture blog (& I do hope some of your photos are included in your book) but if I did remember I would have been back here. in any case, congratulations!<br />this is great news & I can't wait to see your book! <br />I WiLL be back.dianasfaria.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10488357854017358868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31618082.post-60715538956308902872012-12-19T16:52:33.968-05:002012-12-19T16:52:33.968-05:00Really look forward to getting a copy of your book...Really look forward to getting a copy of your book - really great news, congrats!Mike from Travelsinacabhttp://www.travelsinacab.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31618082.post-37392728201042711152012-12-19T05:42:57.351-05:002012-12-19T05:42:57.351-05:00Congrats.
