Thanks Aly, you are truly a person of most exsquisit good taste and fine literary perceptions
Your points were all very well recieved, please make sure you work as a critic in the Hollywood Times in case i ever make it in the movies, definately my critic of choice for sure!
It would seem the signal in the noise of my story is coming over then, and i really needed to know that (i'm a needy writer who requires near constant encouragement and feedback, probably becouse of the fear that the last typo or odd sentance may have been the final straw for anybody who was untill that point- reading it!)
Sehns flashbacks abit dull you say huh, noted.
I could definately take the advice i gave you before and spend more time on the text before posting. (how is Two Houses by the way, i was really enjoying that one). The last two parts of Jericho were writen late into the early hours of the next day (and under the influence) before i posted them and collapsed into bed, so i was particularly keen on knowing that they still made sense.
Technical critisism is still appreciated though, simply becouse its important to get the disciplin to pay attention to the quality at all levels so people can trust that the story (any story) will be worth reading i guess, can't all be fun now can it Having said that, when i see mistakes in anothers story that i'm really enjoying, i tend to just ignore them, auto-figuring what the writer meant as i go along- but when i re-read my own stuff and see typo's i'm Horrified! its abit like having a zit really.
Anyway, more soon.
