Squirrels, for a self-proclaimed not so cultured person, you bring up views that are thoughtful on this matter. Again, I apologize for the confusion with my rhetoric. There are only a couple of points I will touch in your critique of the story; one is the use of the "DJ slang." A point I...

Um, thanks-----I think. I started it a few months ago and worked on it sporadically for a few minutes. You say you could see what I aimed for. Good. That is why I say, considering Squirrels response to this story and the meaning of this story, the sheer irony between the two is a good...

Whew! Tough crowd-- Squirrels, considering the respect that I have acquired for you during the short time I spent on this board months ago, I am surprised by your response. Ironically, the story deals with the sort of response you provided in your post. I asked you if I could use your...

“I will lead the guys positioned outside of the castle to trap the guards from behind,” Mirl volunteered. “Yes, and then the guards will become flanked,” Kellen added. Virgil agreed. He was sure there were many guards already crawling all over the dungeon waiting for them at either...

Many guards around the gates began to pay full attention to the event at the gates. “There has been a change of plans by the Grandstylist herself, grub. I warn you not to be difficult,” a voice announced from within the gates before a large figure emerged. The companions recognized the figure...

“Squirrels committed no crime,” Kellen reminded Virgil. Virgil shrugged the comment off. “The Grandstylist won’t allow us to step within a league of the castle, not to mention inside of the castle to attend the ball,” Kellen said. “We’ll just have to come up with a plan to seduce as many...

I began to rise from my knees in my defense but a group of Stylist officers shoved me back down to the floor. “You are sentenced to death by decapitation,” she announced. “The sentenced will be carried out tomorrow at sunrise. Let his sentence be known throughout Slorum. Residents of Slorum...

One time, not long after I arrived in Slorum, I gave a field report in exchange for some food at a bar. Many men, who heard my tale that night, had begun to approach many women around the bar after hearing my report although it was one detailing an unsuccessful pick-up. As I gobbled the food...

I would hope my prose is much more advanced than that of a thirteen-year-old or many will be disappointed. I have edited as much of the story as I could while trying to avoid sacrificing the essence of the tale and I can hardly consider one additional topic on this board as "clutter." For...
