I hope to see more of your writing, and I hope it will include a great deal of the lives of the people in Israel. We are generally and for the most part, ill informed about Israel, both modern and ancient. It will be wonderful if we can be enlightened.

Just another comment. For those interested in reading about everyday life in Israel, the following site is terrific. It contains, among other things, links to many excellent blogs by English-speaking Israelis (US, Canada, England, SA, Australia, etc ex-pats). Enjoy!

Good luck in your learning adventure. As one who struggled through French and Spanish, I have respect for your tenacity. Great post! BJ

I enjoyed your story. You write beautifully. Congratulations on your award! And good luck with the Hebrew. Who knows, you might discover a talent for writing in Hebrew, too!

Your Coming Home story is so deserving of the monthly prize. The movie "Exodus" was brought to mind as I read your thoughts. Hopefully we'll see more of your good works...Kathe
