Surrounded

Bo asked me last Friday night if he could stay up all night and write. I said "Yes, but only if you are writing. You can't do anything else. Go for it."
One and a half hours later he produced this, and declared he was going to sleep.
Saturday night the request was repeated, and the result was a completely different type of story, which I will have to scan and post. Illustrations, you know.
Let's just say that the nut doesn't fall far from the tree.
Totally my favorite thing he's written so far.
Love my guys.

This is truly amazing but not suprising! I really got caught up in the story and I could hear him telling it. Good job Bo! A buddy writer indeed!

Sigh, what a glorious story. Well done, BO!! Well done, Bill! I was back in the Renaissance listening will Bo talked to Leo, and entranced.

Oh my lands, what a great story! Fabulous storytelling, Bo! I can tell you LOVE to read, and you love a good story. I can't wait to read more of your writings as you grow older. :)

Wow! What an awesome story, Bo! You are, indeed, a gifted writer!

It was so ironic that I read the story right after I left the theater in DC where I saw the Arthur Miller play, A View from the Bridge. Who knows...one day we may be watching a play written by Bo Heroman!

Congrats to you all and thanks for sharing.
