Agreed. There is a lack of some basic storytelling skills going on.
For stuff I wrote? Um. I could send you my unfinished draft of Gods and Fathers, but I somehow doubt that will scratch your itch for a satisfying ending, being, well, unfinished.
A lot of my writing is LARP writing, so, uh, if you really want to read all the LXHS character sheets, I can hook you up? But I can't imagine you would...
Unless you want read Hellsing or One Piece fanfic I wrote years ago, I got nothin' on that front.
It took me a little bit, but it became one of those stories that I got engrossed in reading rather than reading-to-read (and picking it apart as I did). That's difficult to do! And it did have a complete, well-crafted and satisfying ending.
Actually, I'm not sure how much of your fiction I've read until now? But this definitely felt like something you wrote. I liked it. Thank you for sharing! :)
Hahaha, as you [should] know Bob, the sharing--or foisting on people--is something writers do all the time, often unasked and unprovoked. The real thanks goes to the readers. Thanks for reading! I figured it was likely that the plot/scenario/etc. wouldn't be up your alley and might even be irksome, so the fact that you got engrossed in the story and thought the ending was satisfying is great. And this definitely felt like something you wrote made me laugh.
Well, I really enjoyed the pov of the protagonist, and the detailed, believable, and setting-enriched plot made a scenario that would otherwise be not be up my alley enjoyable. Plus, the woman-contended-over had a couple of lines that really won me over and made her feel more like a real character rather than a whimisical-ideal/plot-device.
Although you didn't hook me right out the gate, you did eventually, and you showed a lot of solid craft. You should be proud of this story, I think!
Whirrrrrrrrrrr, the last thing I wrote (that is a story) is kind of frenetic and is not online, but I can e-mail it to you if you are still looking for things to read; e-mail me your e-mail address and I'll send it to you! My e-mail is on Facebook (and it *is* my e-mail, not the @facebook email, thankfully). (:

(what happened to your Elder Scrolls posts? I was enjoying those!)

(I guess I should say "fortunately," because a lot of that time has been taken up by working on my new larp instead).

I'm glad I could make you laugh, at least! ^_^
