So, I know (mr Mod) we aren't supposed to discuss other FM's, but I really just wondered - out of 10 - what people thought of starry-rune's writing abilities, considering - essentially - what his/her thread is is basically an audition of their writing skills.

So, whaddayathink?

    Initial thought: Who?

    Subsequent opinion: I just look at the person's profile, see whether they make a habit of generating cobblers and then use that to decide whether or not the current thing is worth giving a toss about.

    As a rule, it usually isn't.

    In that case, your opinion doesn't matter :D (as does mine, as i got bored on the first page :D) I was merely asking for literary critique - to me they seem to be writing some kind of book or play that they want response about, so I just wondered if their story was 'reaching' the audience, getting them emotionally involved or not :D

    This is the rewrite of The Virgin and The Gypsy, I'm assuming? D. H. Lawrence did it so much better.
