    I have to close the thread door a while, something very good and personal has happened so I'll be offline for a while. Be safe

    You are not imposing at all! I have just refilled all of the coffee pots and have a little time. I'll happily take a look. :s_smile:

    My pleasure. Gloat all you need to, you earned it. As a side note why I liked the 'scar' more than the flashback. It showed the depth of the characters mind and persona. It showed that she was there because of a struggle that she'd endured. It showed that there was more in those scars than...

    @Kara_dija I've finally, finally finished your chapter 17 of Crimson Dreams. Okay. Since I know English is not your first language, I'm not going to be heavy handed on the grammar. Having said that, you are completely correct. It's a fine chapter. Given I hadn't seen anything since the...

    @Kara_dija Sorry it's taken be so long to read, but life has become a bit hectic. I see you've published 2 other chapters. I'll take a look at 17 today. What a start to a new month! Sorry about the long wait

    @harrydouthwaite We are in full swing of summer. So come on into the shop and enjoy the nice air conditioning, while I go over your book - Feelings and Fondness First, I apologize for making this review take so long. Simply put, life got in the way. After we finished our cookout last night I...

    It never rains but pours! I'll be pouring tea for the next few days. It's scorching here, over 96 degrees. So iced coffee and good old fashioned southern ice tea. Enough to make you go into sugar shock. @harrydouthwaite & @Kara_dija I'll be happy to take a look. I'm close to finishing up...

    @JellyFish000 Come up and have a seat at the bar. I have finally made my way through four chapters of your new book. Cultivation Starting With Treasure Gathering Bowl Alright a few things to say before I get started. First, given that English isn't your first language, I didn't really say...

    Trust me when I tell you that the difference between the synopsis and the chapters is plainly obvious. It's essentially two different people. And I suspect that the reason for the layout of the chapters is to edit each part, sentence to sentence and make it human as possible. Sadly, I'm...

    @PotatoWrites This is going to be short and not so sweet for you. I happened to read Chapter's 1, 2 & 3 - then the Synopsis of Her Gifts. It was the sheer difference in the Synopsis from the rest of the story that made me question AI use, and I found it. You have unfortunately broken Rule 2...

    My pleasure. The only thing we disagree on are ellipsis. I'll die on that sword. They have uses, don't get me wrong. It's the empty ellipsis that are uncool. Back in college, I had a professor that would have gone bananas with the 4th wall break, of course he also despised "ain't"...

    @Assurbanipal_II It's your turn! Let me refill the tea and get started on your 'best seller' - Schwarz -‖- Der Wille zur Macht I will start off saying that I was a tad intimidated by the sheer amount of people that you have reading it as well that you have been writing this since 2020. It's a...

    OMG - you don't know how much I needed this pic. I am brewing up some 100% Kona right now. The bigger the better! Again, you are profoundly adorable! Thank you for the brightening of my day.
