Xion Island Carrier: Chapter 18

The interview room was cold, but James McAlister didn’t seem to notice. He was still. Paler even than the day of the funerals, and the room was...

Xion Island: Chapter 17

Xion Island: Chapter 16

Xion Island Carrier: Chapter 15

Posted on Sun, 25 Jun 2023

A well-rounded story that children would love. I can visualise the image for it. 

Who doesn't love Sweets?

Now, about this island, you didn't say which body of water it was in? Asking for a friend, you understand.

You express the mindset well

Posted on Wed, 08 Jul 2020

You express the mindset well and the writing is fluid. Writing is about putting down what you want to say and, whether the views expressed are indeed your views or the views of anybbody reading, is immeterial--they are the views of Grandma.

I love the way this turns

Posted on Wed, 01 Jul 2020

I love the way this turns from apparent envy of the other side, to gratitude for what we've got.  Cracking poem, Luigi I enjoyed it.  As to Trump, well what can be said about him other than, Wow, are they all mad? What were they thinking?

 no, I think it's because they are animals and race has nothing to with it. I think clan does, be it a family, a race or a gang. In this case a band of businessmen who only think about greasing palms and making money. Objectify a thing... In this...
