I happened across your Unbroken Glass blog while looking for a Snatch sound clip to send to my girlfriend (something about “zee Germans”). Two hours later I have read half of your stories. I’m not Jewish and I didnt understand many of your references (though I have now Wikipedia-ed “Frum” and “Teshuva” and “Shibbutch”–which may seem ADD because it is), but you are really a wonderful writer. You have a distinctive and captivating voice and something to say with it. You should turn your stories into a book. The end.
Happy, lichtig, lustrous, Chankuka!

Gosh, thanks.
I can only imagine how hard it was with the Jewish jargon. I am extremely impressed you went through the trouble.
I think I’ve forgotten how to write, or lost the motivation to do so, or whatever, and yet – it’s great to read that someone enjoyed my stories.
Ho, glorious past.

I too have just spent a couple of hour reading many of your entries.
You are a great writer.
Keep going.
Book, short stories. You have a gift.

And I was the one who predicted that you will forget how to write! (Pats himself on the back)
