Comment by Kelly Ann Rogers on 10/18/03
This is a terrific story. Not so much for the narrative, which is interesting all by itself, but for the moods and the settings. These are as palpable as the humidity on a hot summer night in New Orleans. This story is marvelously languid and decadent, tinged with unseen mystery, spiced up with sultry sex. It gives off an aura of lives that have decayed because of lost wealth. This makes it unique in a special way. I felt almost enveloped by the story, and that I had lost something valuable, thought I didn't quite know what it was, when I had finished it. Comment by Sheryl S. on 10/06/03 Interesting and memorable. Great love scenes, lots of terrific passion. You may wish to resubmit the last few chapters of the second installment where Ronnie suddenly became "Robbie" without explanation. I'm guessing this was a typo... or did I miss something? Small stuff notwithstanding -- a terrific story that I enjoyed reading. Comment by Andrea Foster on 10/05/03 This story is beautifully written, and develops a really different hot-house atmosphere. Ricky is an interesting creation, beautiful but somehow corrupt, like a rare orchid... I haven't read any of this author's previous stories, and I'll definitely have to take a look. |

The importance of reader feedback cannot be overstated. Authors rely on it to improve their future works, and it gives them the incentive to write more stories if they know that their hard work has been appreciated. I am not saying that comments must all be lauditory. Authors often appreciate honest, constructive criticism over simple remarks like 'Great story', although simple praise is appreciated also. There is no limit on how much you can enter in the 'comments' box. Sentences will automatically word wrap at the end of the line so please do not use your carriage return/enter key except at the end of your paragraphs. It is not necessary to use your real name here, and, email addresses are optional. Posting your email address will allow the author to thank you for taking the time to post your comments, and/or discuss critiques and address possible concerns. Be forewarned that abusive remarks and language will be removed, and the posters may be banned from this AND other areas of StorySite. |
