TC2 - Chapter 2: Meet the Grandparents
Backwoods Boy commented on Brayon's story chapter in TC2 - Chapter 2: Meet the Grandparents
You do an excellent job with detail that is interesting and paints a complete picture. -
The sense of smell had come up earlier, but it was interesting to learn that the wolf hearing, so presumably all of the senses, remain while in human form. Now I'm curious about certain other abilities, but I'm sure I'll find out in time. 🙂
-
Usually I do. I failed to read one recently, and then felt a bit stupid because the relationships I was struggling with were all explained therein. 😕

It just gets better and better. 🙂

TC2 - Chapter 1: Meeting Each Other
Backwoods Boy commented on Brayon's story chapter in TC2 - Chapter 1: Meeting Each Other
Excellent. I'm looking forward to reading the rest. Slowly. Savoring it like a glass of good wine -
I'm enjoying this more all the time. I'm rationing myself to one chapter a day. I'll probably wait at chapter ten until the next few rewritten chapters are released.
-
Thanks. I'll read in progression what is there and stop when I reach the end of Book 3.
-
When I looked at the series, I didn't find book 4, although book 5 is there. Is there a reason, or should I look harder?
-
"Let's start at the very beginning. A very good place to start. When you read you begin with A B C ..." Or in this case, with the first chapter in the series. No more confusion by starting at the end. 🙃 I hope to read a chapter a day, and based on the beginning, it will be a very enjoyable read. 🙂

I read the first two chapters this morning. I think the format is both unique and excellent, and I like the way it is developing. Reading this is great fun, and to extend my enjoyment, I'm going to read one chapter each day, first thing in the morning. It will be a great way to start the day.

Spellbinding and superbly written. Thanks to @Mikiesboy and @BHopper2 for suggesting it. I never thought I would read a story about Zombies. I can't wait to move on to the next chapter.

I'm definitely getting into this story now. In particular, I'm enjoying the nuances of how each form has a slightly different character, personality, and level of self-awareness that plays into that of the other. For example: The trio of wolves ran off in the direction Ethan had gone. His scent was weak, but all three of their sharp noses could pick up the faint trail. To Aiden, it smelled heavenly. His wolf knew for sure now but was going to try and let Aiden come to the realization for himself. I hope that made sense. Thanks both for a splendid read and for an education on shape-shifting. I hope I won't be plagiarizing if underlying concepts show up elsewhere

As the very new guy here (author 1154, I noted), I've quickly come to appreciate this site. I like the way the site is run, the sense of community, and the encouragement I have received from several of you, particularly @WolfM and @BHopper2. In terms of writing, I have a long way to go, but the learning process is being enhanced by reading some great work here. Thanks for making this opportunity available to all of us.

The Last Waltz - Prompt 481
Backwoods Boy commented on Mikiesboy's story chapter in The Last Waltz - Prompt 481
Absolutely delightful! I envy your writing skills. -
I always loved that song, and the story is an excellent sequel.
-
An excellent story. Thanks for sharing it.
-
I'm reminded of your "wrong number" comment in chat a few days ago. It would lend itself very well to this format. First Line: "I think you have the wrong number."
-
Thanks for all of the info. I'll go looking for the next three because they're fun and interesting.
-
@BHopper2 From whence cometh these writing prompts? It looks like an excellent way to get out of a rut.

TC3 - Chapter 1: Meet Jeremy
Backwoods Boy commented on Brayon's story chapter in TC3 - Chapter 1: Meet Jeremy
Thanks for pointing out the sequence. I'll go look at the earlier stories. And I'll PM you tomorrow about the business of working with editors. Right now it's two minutes to midnight and Cinderella needs to hit the sack before the carriage turns into a pumpkin -
TC3 - Chapter 1: Meet Jeremy
Backwoods Boy commented on Brayon's story chapter in TC3 - Chapter 1: Meet Jeremy
My first thought was how well you juggled so many characters. By the end, I think I understand the relationships, but my next stop will be the prologue. I also like the level of detail. And the conversations and relationships are so very realistic. I'll be reading more. -
Once I caught onto the POV change, I liked how it was done. I'm writing a one-chapter thing that will probably only go on Nifty, and I suddenly realized that I was writing it with the POV of the wrong character (there are only two). That one change created a whole different story.
-
Yes, a bit mad. I found myself laughing, and I wasn't sure why. The first thing I noticed is the detail that you get into such a short amount of prose. I love it. It required a second reading. Thanks for the break from writing.
-
Since I've never been into werewolves before, it's taking me a little time to understand what's going on. I'm going to go back over the first two chapters again. I think that will help.
-
Nicely done. I tried this once and was left with one distinct impression: It is amazing how so many words have so few rhyming companions.
