The language is harsh,

Posted on Tue, 07 Jul 2020

The language is harsh, unpolished but I think so is the character you've created, a true curmudgeon. In this context, the rough tone and attitude works- it is defiantly defensive as his life has not been all he'd have liked. I enjoyed the read...

Posted on Sat, 09 Mar 2024

Her story is sad indeed. A woman of remarkable courage and vision led an army into battle and won but had to hide her gender and don men's clothes - and because she was a woman, her victory awarded her, not a medal but a martyr's death. Even...
