  • Other » Romantic, General Re: Out the hollows where the swallow nests

    This story spends about 85% of its text describing a single feeling. That's not to say that these stories don't have their place in this world, not at all, but ...

    Hi Vet. Well, as I said before, I liked this. But I liked it mainly for what Jabber liked it -- the tone and the voice. I re-read this a ...

  • Short Story » Fantasy, General Re: And So Burned The Rabbit Hole

    So this was pretty good. The atmosphere was clearly distinguishable against the background din of other story elements, and there was a definite feeling to the prose here. The single-line ...

  • Short Story » Fantasy, General Re: Confrontation

    So since you say this was an introduction to your Rp character, you say that this wasn't really intended as a story per se -- in that case, I'm going ...

    There are (appropriately) a lot of little things in this story which coalesce real nice-like into something else. Smyling pointed out that they were lovers, but the pink crib suggests ...
