  • Fantasy Short Stories Re: Death's Riddle

    Hi I like this one, because I think you have set up a very effective interplay between the two characters. The way they speak to one another is very natural, ...

    This is indeed a beautiful piece. I love the intricacy, especially in the upper lefthand side. I hope you don't mind if I remark on a few things? With the ...

  • Art & Photography Re: Some of my first paints I did

  • General Fiction Short Stories Re: "I read"

    Hi This is interesting. Again, as I have mentioned in one of your previous stories, I do like the choppiness, and I think you have used the capitalization very nicely, ...

    Esther: I will sheepishly admit to you that I have started working on a "novel." I put it in quotes because I think it is terribly arrogant of me to ...

  • Welcome Mat Re: Bok! That is, hi =)

    Haha oh no. Not so fast. My work is buried deep inside this laptop and it will (most likely) never see the light of day. So no can do. But ...

  • Action/Adventure Short Stories Re: How to Grow a Demon

    I kept wanting to stop reading this. Not because it wasn't fantastic writing and compelling imagery, but because this isn't my sort of genre. I'm all up for a little ...
