Like you, I like real stories because ... well, they are real! Your article captures everything about their 'magic', and it is so well put-together. Well done.

Hello … I'm Fred … also writing to thank you for choosing to follow me. I really appreciate that, and after reading this story and some of your others on Medium, I’ve decided to ‘follow’ you too.

Note: An Index to my Story Collections can be found in: All you need to know about Fred (pinned near the top of my home page).

Nice to meet you on Medium. I wish you well on your continuing writing journey.

Fred
