It gives me great pleasure to select
David Stewart blogging as The Green-Walled Tower
as my Blog Pick for June 2013.
David lives and works in South Korea. He and I read and comment on one another’s blog – for quite some time, if I might add.
He writes some of the best fiction pieces in Blogsville. Especially for busy people out there, all his pieces are short and captivating – just the way I relish them.
What enthrals me most – David’s uncanny viewpoints. He weaves tales from angles that I don’t even dream of – and regular readers of my Fallen Grace series know, I tend to dream a bit 😀
Hope you like this little haiku, David – written for you 🙂
If you are into flash fictions and especially the darker variety, and have not read David – you are missing something.
I strongly recommend David’s The Green-Walled Tower.
David, it is my pleasure to read your works and I hope you continue to share your talents.
All good wishes,
🙂 Eric 🙂

Reblogged this on The Green-Walled Tower and commented:
Some very kind words from a good friend of mine, Eric Alagan. I will reciprocate his endorsement and say that if you aren’t a reader of his blog, I would definitely recommend it. He has a beautiful imagination.
This is great – and thank you for your kind words 🙂
Eric,
wow, you blew me away with this. Thank you so much. I’m deeply honored by your kind words. Of course, now I have to live up to the expectations. 🙂 Thanks for being such a faithful reader, almost since the beginning of my blog. I’m glad we had a chance to get to know each other and read each other’s work.
-David
You’re very welcome, David

Glad to get to know you too through your writings and comments – incisive.
Cheers,
Eric

Your have an excellent choice Eric, have to set up a special time to visit his blog.
Thank you.
With regards,
mei
That’s great, Ibu Mei
David has much to offer and it takes but only a couple of minutes of your time per post.
All good wishes,
Eric
Thank you Eric, you have done it again! I immediately logged onto David’s blog and have been there ever since.- what a treasure! I now have him on my favorates bar. Your appreciative Haiku is pretty cool too.
Cheerio
Jane
This is so lovely of you, Jane.
I’m very sure David will relish your fictions and poems too – all wonderfully well presented and with profound themes.
All good wishes,
Eric
Like the haiku… applicable in a variety of ways.
Yes, it is – sorry about that – I simply had to slip in a layer or two 🙂
I enjoyed seeing how many situations I could come up with in which it was applicable. Again… nice one!
This was a wonderful blog pick and a lovely haiku. I read and follow David’s blog. Apart from dark and ghost stories, I also enjoy the humorous pieces.
Thank you Padmini – re my choice and haiku.
Yes, I saw you and David on one another’s blogs – much in common I think – Friday Fictioneers, etc.
All good wishes,
Eric
cool, i’ll check this out )
Hello Beth – yes, please do and I’m sure David will not disappoint.
Cheers,
Eric
P/s Sheep you say – most of us fly cattle class 🙂
What a great tribute to David’s blog, Eric, and I love your haiku. For me, it can also relate to a good book that I finish much too soon and feel a sense of emptiness when I’m done reading it. 🙂 I’ll check out David’s world! Enjoy the rest of your weekend! Hugz!
Hello Lauren – yes, do check out David’s blog.
I can relate to what you say – sometimes I’m so drawn into a book that, come the last page, it leaves a sense of loss. Creatures of habit, we are – always seeking out tethers of life.
All good wishes for the week ahead,
Eric
I remember last time he got some awards he came up with quite a creative response.
My expectations are high… 😉
Yes, I recall that post too – absolutely unique – and I wondered then, how much time he expended on it. I thoroughly enjoyed and left my comment.
Congratulations David!
That’s so welcoming, Georgia – I’m sure he’ll appreciate it 🙂
Excellent choice, Eric! David’s blog is definitely a keeper 😉
Thank you – David already has many ‘followers’ and I believe you number among them 🙂
All good wishes,
Eric
