I liked all five stories. The first two are my favorites. "Game Show", would make a very good movie or play. I liked the vivid character development and the plot twist at the end. I could not help feeling a bit emotional after reading your second story, "From PR to New York". It should be required reading for anyone studying the experience of migrants in the post WW2 era. Do not change a word of "From PR to New York"; your writing hit a high mark with this one. When you write about true events your style comes alive for me. Wonder if other readers would get the same impression.
Keep writing. I mean it, you have a wonderful talent.
Dreamin’ Dreams is more than a collection of stories; it is a celebration of Irish life, adventure, and the unforgettable characters who make growing up in Ireland a journey worth remembering.
