"How does he do it?" I asked myself. So I went back and read the first paragraph again. *That's how.*

Nathan, you are a master of creating a lightening-fast, sympathetic connection with your reader. It gets me every time. Well done. And I respect the 4B (for B?) pencil (very soft but can withstand a good amount of pressure).

Brilliantly done, Nathan

In many ways I would say you captured my late teenage years perfectly in these carefully crafted words

“I was starting to discover who I was, the boat of my soul finding some mooring alongside shores unknown.”

There are so many times, even now, that I feel I am destined to be perpetually on that boat 😁

Just a wonderfully heart breaking story that I think so many people will relate to

Outstanding my friend 👍🏼🙂
