What I like about the way you write is how good you are describing the art work with such vivid detail and how you kept me interested to read your next chapter

Nara seemed uneasy with Hank. I'm not sure but if Nara felt as I did about Hank, a creepy guy, then she had to be nervous after the surprise meeting with Riley and the twin brothers, Henry, and Harry. Great emotional effect.

Thank you, Phillip. There's more to all three brothers than meets the eye. He's a good-guy, though. He's just trying to get her out of herself.
Thanks for the read and review.
Have a great test of the week,
Rhonda

Thank you, Ella. What a wonderful thing to say. I used to post a lot more, but have been hugely busy at work. I'm going to try to pick the pace back up.
Appreciate you,
Rhonda

Excellent work, my friend. I do love the artwork you put on this chapter. I wondered if you were still writing this story as I hadn't read any of it for a while. It is a most interesting read. Nicely done.

Thank you for the read and review. I hadn't posted on the book in a few weeks as I posted the "short story" last week. I'm so busy at work, I have trouble keeping up on this site. haha. Silly work getting in the way.
Take care,
Rhonda

The author must have a good background on history, myths and legends to lend credence to her story line and it showed here in your post. The story promises to be very exciting and interesting that I will look forward to your succeeding post. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for your comments, my friend. Yes, I write fantasy most of the time, and especially about legendary creatures. Last year I wrote, The Daredevil Girls From Bunker Hill, and was where I got a head start on such creatures.
Take care,
Rhonda
Comment from Pam (respa)
-Great artwork and excellent
chapter to go with it, Rhonda.
-The description of all the art
is very detailed and vivid; you
allow the reader to picture it
in their mind.
-I like this quote by Hank,
"Irresponsible," he said, "is letting
your heart die and your soul hide behind it."
-Riley seems to be the main character
discussed, but you show what an impressive
background he has.
-Of course, "the coup-d'etat" was the
Piasa bird, but it really was the ending--
two more of Hank!! Quite a twist.
-What will Nara do now?!

She'll have to watch her back. haha, and her heart! The other two will prove to be less outgoing, though, so she will have a bit of a break with them.
I so appreciate the six stars and the wonderful review. As always, your attention to detail is wonderful.
Take care,
Rhonda

You are very welcome and deserving of the stars and review, Rhonda. I enjoyed all of the detail in the story. I didn't know if you researched the art or if you have a keen interest in it. Nara definitely has a lot to deal with!

Art has played in other of my books. I'm interested in it, but not an artist. Thanks!!

Thanks for the info., Rhonda.

Hello Rhonda,
It seems like Nara has entered a different dimension
much like Archie entered a different world.
Perhaps, Texas really is some time warp or cultural warp.
The dialogue flows very well and the repartee between
Nara and Hank with the elements of humor reads smoothly.
The contrast between the cowhand and the artist is very good.
There are a good number of talented western artists from Russell to Jackson.
I liked your surprise ending. Perfectly pitched.
"Oh dear, please tell me there aren't three of you." lol
Seems Nara is outnumbered, out weighted and out gunned.
I guess the ranch should be named the Triple H.
Well done
RS

Thank you, Robert, for the stars and the comments.
Time warp's a pretty good depiction of west Texas. haha.
Yeah, Nara's situation is a bit like Archie's, though she isn't as outgoing.
I need to get back to that story. I'm afraid I'll have to send out a summary first, though.
Once I get this one going a bit more I will.
Thanks again, my friend,
Rhonda

Hello, :)
This is a good chapter -- I found no SPAGS. It was hard to come in and read this chapter, but it sounds good. I used to substitute and loved art classes! :)

Oh cool, I'm a Chemistry teacher, and love art. I just wish I was better at it. haha.
This is only chapter 4, so you're not far behind.

Comment from Wabigoon
Like this Rhonda. Hank's rather obnoxious but I presume we're smoothing some of that out. This is my first look at this story. It's well done, the dialogue realistic, etc. Is this a form of private or charter school down in Texas meant to argue against the dread public schools of the dreary, chilly north? Could be. Interesting. I have two teachers in my immediate family, three including my son's girl friend. She's looking to run for congress to try to stop the withering away of the public school, the lowering to teacher salaries and benefits...in a country that could afford anything if it wanted to. But thanks, this is fun to read.

Actually, I am a public school teacher, and the purpose of the school will come out as I go along. One of my books I wrote on here was based on a public school. It was called, "The Daredevil Girls From Bunker Hill". This one is private just because they have a different perspective and goal.
Thanks for the beautiful six stars, and for the comments. I hope you are able to continue with the story.
Take care,
Rhonda

Hi, Nancy;
Oh, boy!! I can only imagine Nara's surprise at encountering two more look-alikes. Is her heart hammering out of her chest?
Another great chapter. I look forward to more,

I'm not sure if it's hammering yet, but she is starting to stir out of her self-absorbed funk she's been in.
Thanks for the R & R,
Rhonda
