Great start; it's a well

Posted on Fri, 28 Oct 2022

Great start; it's a well structured and believable story, sad and realistic. Now I want to read the next chapter and see how they manage to keep the secret, and make ends meet.

What an imagination you have

Posted on Sun, 16 Oct 2022

What an imagination you have Di-hard; this reads like Alice in wonderland. Strange goings on for Mary, Wong and a Quartermaster. I loved the surreal quality of the world you've created; it's like a Picasso in words.

A spectral and morose walk

Posted on Sat, 29 Oct 2022

A spectral and morose walk through a graveyard; you’ve captured the essence of Samhain Jenny. The thin veil between life and afterlife is threaded throughout your Poe like poem ; and so apropos to the Season; well done.

Chilling and so well

Posted on Sun, 23 Oct 2022

Chilling and so well structured. No one else saw the girl that befriended Jenny or addressed her. The way you had Jenny walk backwards through the events to get to her conclusion made it a well thought out ending. Another great story Paul.

Posted on Sun, 09 Oct 2022

Great story telling and your conclusion did not disappoint. This was a perfect October tale but you do have elements here that allow for a longer fantasy novel. 'The Williams Family Saga' might be something to consider. I know I would want to...

Could a lawyer have helped

Posted on Fri, 07 Oct 2022

Could a lawyer have helped speed up that process? But I'm not sure what that would cost either. So sorry there are such rotten, greedy landlords out there;  I hope you eventually get back your son's money for him and all the other expenses too.

Darkness vs. the light; the light prevailed for now but you've left it precariously teetering on a flying carpet...I cannot wait for the final chapter; your writing is suspenseful and superb, and I'm sure the ending will be equally excellent...I...
