Hi Diskworld's Pythonist!

Thanks for putting this into AWW - I enjoyed reading it, and the other entries in the series.

(In order they are:
A815384
A817526
A820658
A876233 and
A901315 (this one)).

I rather like these - you have a deft way with puns, and I like puns.

What do you want to get from AWW?

I assume that you know that because these are fiction (or so I devoutly hope!) they are not suitable for the Edited Guide.

If you want some detailed commentary, I am happy to make a few remarks about each of them.

My overall feeling is that you have a way with words, a nice eye and a sense of humour, but that these are rather unpolished. Some of the sentances are awkward. You may find that reading a piece of writing out loud helps you identify which sentances work and which ones are more clunky.

I was also uncertain whether or not I was reading a single story in 5 parts, or 5 separate stories. I assume it is one story, but I found the breaks between some of them quite substantial.

Anyway - smiley - ok for writing them and smiley - ta for posting them here. As I said, I enjoyed reading them, they kept my attention (most of the time smiley - winkeye, and you can turn a pun. I will do outragious things for a good pun.

And keep on writing - the more you write the better you will get.

Ben
