All Comments on 'Touch'

The thing I enjoy most about your stories is hope. Once again excellent character development. Enjoyed this story as much as your other ones.

A deep and sensual story.

It says, without getting preachy, so much about the human condition, both as individuals and a society.

Very well done.

I look for anything new by Colleen.

I know we will be taken to new areas by a familiar artist's hand.

Thank you

Keep 'em coming, Sancha. I thoroughly enjoy your ability to create a new world with such a deft hand. Wonderful.

it was a bit shorter than most of your other ones, but it was enjoyable nonetheless.

I look forward to your next story

But I love your stories. And this is a nice, simple but warm story. Loved it.

I always love your talent of putting such deep passion into words. Once again, you leave me longing for more.

So I'm just going to tell you that you rock. I love your characters and your ability to smoothly and seamlessly blend them into a science fiction backdrop.

A story filled with such amazing characters. You can’t help but be drawn to the story. A touching story.

four days of sensory deprivation seems mighty short for the effects that are exibited. Four years is much more believable, unless the planet they're on has such a slow rotation that a 'day' lasts several months.

@Anon: only four days of the story. Lindsey did a year.

So very good, colleen and her work will be greatly missed.

A day on Venus is longer than a year on Venus, because the planet spins in retrograde. (as opposed to the earth, which does not spin retrograde)

R.I.P you are such a great author..i'll miss your work..

I just love your sci fi stories think they are brillian t. Well thought out with a goopd plot and just the rigbtj amoun t of Sex

Thank you, look forward to more

I like reading Si-Fi and this is one of the best, short, but the best I've read in a long time. Very glad I stumbled upon it. There is so much feeling, no pun intended, in the story that I was almost holding my breath while reading it. Loved the happy ending.

It's so hard to believe you've been gone for sixteen years, Colly Thomas. Your stories... *this* story ...will never age out. This is such a wonderful demonstration of the crafts of writing, and storytelling, and creative imagination (and yes, each of those is a craft) that it ought to be required reading for college level creative writing courses.

16 years, CT Thankfully you left us this heritage and this profile full off wonderful creative ART work

Yes this tale was another extraordinary one, just three pages but worth 1000 pages and so five stars are not enough

Hopefully you will be able to recognize all those comments and compliments for your work

Namaste lovely soul 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝✨🌸☘️
