Well, as you read and reviewed my story, I thought I'd repay the favour.
It's very good, actually, and I know I can talk, but the chapters are really long... I suppose as much can be expected. (I have read the whole thing by the way, it's just easier to review chapter one).
Thank you for your comments on Pig City.
You can think of some very interesting names, it must be a talent of yours, I like peculiar names, so this is right up my street.
Keep writing!

So, I don't know how you're on my Author Alert, as I can't recall ever reading any of this, you apparently first published any of this in '09, and there's nothing else in your profile, but I'm glad you are because if you were not, I never would have read the chapters I'm reading and experienced the joylarity of reading Aurian and Jin's character dynamics.

I haven't been to this site in ages, have even forgotten my login, but apparently I had you on Author Alert, and was sent a link to this story.
I don't regret reading it, that's for sure.
It's simple, not all too original, but it made me smile. And the thing I really like is your way with words. You have a large vocabulary, I learned a couple of words from you. And you have some great dialogues and very apt phrases. My favourite:
"I would’ve liked a little time to dread it first."
I think it's ingenious. A wonderful description of that frame of mind.
