Yesterday, I wrote 1,097 words on "The Wolf Who Cried Girl" and found THE END. The story comes to 5,942 words, total. And I think I am very happy with the piece. Spooky loves it, and, increasingly, her reaction is my gauge of whether or not I've done a thing well. The story has been sent to Vince Locke to be illustrated. Anyway, along with my sf

So far, I am enjoying the book a great deal, and I find myself baffled at those I've seen complain about the style in which it is written, which I find fairly straightforward and brisk.

Personally, she seemed to go for a very Victorian writing style, and the beginning introduces a lot of people almost at once. Both of these things made it a bit difficult for me to get into it. I loved it once I did, though.

She does, but it's in keeping with the period and feeling of the novel.

Oh, definitely, but it's also a style that frustrates the living hell out of me to follow.

Amazing. All that writing AND three virtual world stories at once? My mind boggles. Thanks to you and Spooky for the company last night. It was great fun getting to test out weapons and such. I learned many new tricks. Wish we weren't three time zones apart. I always forget how late it is for you two. You solidified Cerdwin's reputation as an angel-hater last night. Should be good fun to build off of in the future. Now I gotta go read about Elenore...

No, thank you!

She can abuse that little red-haired Celestial of mine anytime she wants. ;-)

She's even got my permission. That Celestial is a bitch...

That Celestial is a bitch...

Yes, well.

I think the complaints may come from those who are not familiar with works which were written during the time the novel portrays.

Since this post was quite link-filled, and it is that most horrible time of the year, might we obtain a link to your amazon wishlist again...along with, perhaps, preferred T-shirt sizes for you and Ms. P?

[humglum]

Oh, golly. Wishlist time again...

We both like X-large t-shirts.

Would that be XL for the innies or the outties?

Are you asking if she means M or F? If so, I like the euphemism.
