Finally a bit of good news for me after an horrific four weeks. 
          	I did indeed win my third Amby's Award in consecutive years 
          	Gettysburg Address © not only won in Poetry but unexpectedly took out the Grand Favourite prize in Historical Fiction as well. Maybe you should take a look. Maybe I'm a better writer than I thought.

Sadly my wife passed on Sunday 18th January after a life impacted by MS for 52 years the last 25 in an electric wheelchair. She was the strongest person I've ever known and loved. She was a record breaker even in adversity. The family and friends held a celebration of her amazing life which you are welcome to view. Shine on Darling in Heaven as you did here on Earth. We miss you. ❤️

@RobertLHarpur, all my condolences and I know like someone said, words can’t make it up for your loss but just know (and this is what I told myself for my aunt and mom) that no matter where you are, she’ll always be with you.

Hi All 
          Amby's Update 
          The Facilitator was eliminated early probably because I was still editing it. 
          My other two entries 
          TSOTV  has made the final in Paranormal 
          And Gettysburg Address has made the final in Poetry
          
          Wish me luck in hoping to get three Amby's Awards in three consecutive years

@lyttlejoe  It would be sweet revenge after they banned it. Haha.

          I am sorry to hear about the health business. I know first hand that can be draining. I'm still upright and suckin' air so there's that.
          I have to move after renting for 33 years, and I was fortunate enough to get another spot in the same building - still, at my age it's a chore. You collect so much stuff that hides in closets and under beds and chairs - stuff you just can't seem to chuck.
          So I may be quiet in the next little while while I get set up again.
          Something I wanted to tell you when we first met here, something that I never told anyone. I didn't think you would believe me, but my name is actually Ronald W. Harper. Truth.

@lyttlejoe I'm Robert Louis James Harpur. I was adopted within the family and found out when I was 42 that my "cousin" was really my birth mother. You might have picked up the theme in my first book HereAfter Dark? Anyway stay tuned for my autobiography coming soon ? Haha when. 
             I finish Book 3 of my Trilogy. 
            Glad to see you writing as prolifically as ever my friend. ❤️

Hello there, old pal
          Wondered where you got to. All the very best in your challenges - much deserved.

@lyttlejoe Thanks Joe . Yeah. Margot has had a lot of health issues . I've become obsessed with playing chess on line which I haven't played much for 50 years . Also busy turning The Facilitator into a novel. How about you?

My new foray into the Horror genre has joined The SPECTRE Of The VATICAN© and Gettysburg Address© as my three entries into this year's Amby's Awards. Wish me luck. It is already #92 in HorrorFiction  out of 17000 stories.
