Chapter 13: Mr. Enoch Garmson
peter rietbergen commented on Topher Lydon's story chapter in Chapter 13: Mr. Enoch Garmson
Fun, again. But again part of the beginning of this chapter- the jewel scene, in the the coach - repeats the last part of the previous one. -
Chapter 12: The Haymarket Hoax

This was great fun, worthy of Henry Fielding.... -
How to Not Get a Date
peter rietbergen commented on TabbyTales's story chapter in How to Not Get a Date
Interesting. But... If M is standing in the subway, how can E's jeans touch the knot of his ties? Et cetera.... -
Lunch with Nana and Ma
peter rietbergen commented on Robert Hugill's story chapter in Lunch with Nana and Ma
Two more interesting women. Looking forward to see how the author will manage to weave the past, the Acaster tale, into the present developments. -
Chapter 11: The Lords, The Fence, and the Gamekeeper
peter rietbergen commented on Topher Lydon's story chapter in Chapter 11: The Lords, The Fence, and the Gamekeeper
Fascinating, again. But the initial paragraphs of this chapter repeat - partly verbatim - the last ones of the previous . And, by the way, why would a royal princess carry a sack with heavy gold sovereigns? At least she would have a jacket doing that for her. -
Start with the Wets
peter rietbergen commented on Autumn Dream's story chapter in Start with the Wets
One can feel for C's feelings after what, apparently, he has gone through with his relatives. But... One can also feel for them, and their need: a need of a perhaps childless couple for some contact and affection. -

A delightful chapter - full of interesting women, too. -
The Space Between Notes
peter rietbergen commented on E K Stokes's story chapter in The Space Between Notes
Well, this was excellent, even though the future seems less than easy... -
The perfect ending to a perfect story.

Given that even the authorities accept that something is wrong, why do they not send a helicopter to rescue Ryan? Or why doesn't Ryan walk away from the cabin at the first daylight to await help at the bridge?

Chapter 9: Lieutenant Lord Edward Ashworth, bt., R.N.
peter rietbergen commented on Topher Lydon's story chapter in Chapter 9: Lieutenant Lord Edward Ashworth, bt., R.N.
A very interesting chapter. Yet a few things puzzle me. Will said he served in Flanders. Yet he talks about the brave Scottish men and boys he was forced to kill. Did I miss something? And Edward, learning to use a pistol with Paddy, "recognised" Tom. But in previous chapters the boy had joined the three men on various occasions already. -
Indeed they are. Even worse: have you read the news that a South-African lady, seeing how AI works, has "written" 50 - yes: fifty novels - in one year's time and took in more than a million euro's? One wonders why we bother...

Chapter 8: The Winter Path

Well, this is going to be a really cozy "found family" of sorts. But let's give Tom the chance to decide on his own preference(s). -
Chapter 7: The Christmas Re-Tithing
peter rietbergen commented on Topher Lydon's story chapter in Chapter 7: The Christmas Re-Tithing
I know I will not be forgiven but I sincerely doubt that any bishop, Anglican or of other denomination, would ever personally make the round of his parishes to collect the tithes. As to the spending spree that now starts: perhaps not the wisest thing to do if you desperately need to keep a low profile. Kent isn't Northumberland .... -
Chapter 6: The Wintering
peter rietbergen commented on Topher Lydon's story chapter in Chapter 6: The Wintering
Yet there seem several solutions. Not, perhaps, the one that says: sell the house, though it might be demolished for the worth of its building materials - it happened all over the UK in the 1930s and later. But if there are tenant farms (left), they do have a certain value.
