Hi Bev, some jolly good descriptive work in this chapter. I like how you developed the twins in little time as well as Ty. I enjoyed the little skirmish between the two brothers. Seems they're never too old for a good family fight. Now the Sh*t has hit the fan and it seems they've found Fritz's body. Can't wait to read on. Luv jada

I liked those two characters. If I had more time with this novel, I'd develop them a bit more. Glad you liked them - and the chapter - too. Love ya, Bev

Gees, I can't believe I've been so tied up I've missed so much. It's such a treat to read this. I loved everything about it. The mixture of the old ways, melding with the "new way" of Ty is a great contrast. Okay, guess I won't say too much. On to the next. :)

Ty's answering smile curved gently like a river connecting two mountain peaks==nice..:)
missing skin by a whisker==that's a blast from the past. My grandfather used to say that. :)

Hi, becca. I appreciate the review, especially if it is after reading twice! Thanks for stopping by and thanks for the encouragement. Warmest regards, Bev
Comment from donaldww
I love the name of the street, 'Cowbird Lane', and the brothers Bree, Raymond and Russell. Something quite poetic sounding about these names.
Excellent detail about Ty's smile being a curve connecting two mountains! I can really picture that kind of angular face!
Super job!
Cheers,
DW

this is unfolding in a very interesting way! I think your characters are being well developed, and I find them interesting personally. Being able to engage with the characters in the story is huge! Thanks for choosing my artwork, I am honored indeed! DonkeyOatey

Thank you so much for that, D.K. I've had a few folks remark on the beauty of the artwork. In fact, I found quite a few 'pieces' I admired as I perused your portfolio. Say, if I ever publish my story, would you be interested in doing the illustration? There has been some interest expressed in submitting it for publication. But I am a ways away from that making a decision on that process.
Warmest regards, Bev

I would be honored..when you get to that point, just ask! Donkeyoatey

I love this story, Bev. I'll give you six star ratings as often as I can :) While we were traveling to my mom's last weekend I noticed the moon. Hubby told me the name of it but I can't remember now. I thought of you and your story. So glad to get home and see a new chapter to read!

This chapter fairly crackles with energy. Ty Longacre is a particularly likable character, and the story moves along at a fast pace. Well written, and most enjoyable.

Comment from Gideon300
Nothing like a body, to break up a silly agrument. I like the way you used the casino pay checks that put just that niggle of a doubt and controversy in between the brothers. Nice work.

Comment from Cumbrianlass
Bloody superb writing. You know, Bev, I read a lot. Everything from NY Best Sellers to run-of-the-mill romances. Your writing is as good as anything I read, and by far, much better than most.
It's so darn real. The little details, how you set a scene. The paragraph with the Stetson is an example of how you take a mundane action and turn into something vivid and important. Fantastic.
Dialogue is perfect. The mood - perfect. The fight scene - brilliantly portrayed. You write action very very well.
I adore the native touches, as you know. And now you've left us with yet another good hook.
Bravo. I'm just gobsmacked by your talent. One of the best writers on this site, my lady!
Love and hugz

Av, you are such an angel! I am deeply, deeply honored because you are someone whose writing always inspires me. I often tell my husband that you are one of my absolute favorite writers on the planet. I'm learning a lot with this novel, and I find myself strongly gravitating toward the Native American characters. So, your insights in that direction are really helpful.
So sorry that you've got caught in that nasty flu going around. Humpwhistle apparently has been down for the count with the bug, too. I sure hope you are feeling stronger.
Thank you so much for your generosity and graciousness. Especially given how badly you're feeling.
Love and BIG hug,
Bev

This book will be published, I'm sure. It would make a great film, actually.

I do love scriptwriting. In fact, as soon as I'm finished with Stacia's class, I'm going to put out another scene from the snoop sisters. Thanks so much for your encouragement, Av. XxxOoo Bev
