Dear Paul, Comment by GeekBabe on 01/01/01 This is a horrible story. Before I read it, I was prepared to like it. I read Paul's earlier HuggleBugs story, and was expecting something in the same vein. But this! Ick! There's no ramatic build-up, no character development, and a totaly gratuitous rape. And the rape, it had no after-effects on the victim except a child. There's no reality here. The first part of the trilogy embedded here has equally bad storytelling and an equally morally-bankrupt premise. I've always thought of Paul as a competent writer, even though I didn't care much for a lot of his subject matter. This, though, undercuts that impression badly. Paul, you produce a lot of stories. Please, slow down and do them right. Think the plots through, execute the writing so the result is readable, and afterwards proof your work. Please! I want to like your writing, but things like this make it oh so hard. |

The importance of reader feedback cannot be overstated. Authors rely on it to improve their future works, and it gives them the incentive to write more stories if they know that their hard work has been appreciated. I am not saying that comments must all be lauditory. Authors often appreciate honest, constructive criticism over simple remarks like 'Great story', although simple praise is appreciated also. There is no limit on how much you can enter in the 'comments' box. Sentences will automatically word wrap at the end of the line so please do not use your carriage return/enter key except at the end of your paragraphs. It is not necessary to use your real name here, and, email addresses are optional. Posting your email address will allow the author to thank you for taking the time to post your comments, and/or discuss critiques and address possible concerns. Be forewarned that abusive remarks and language will be removed, and the posters may be banned from this AND other areas of StorySite. |
