    Definitely very Russian Fairly Tale! Loved it. Can I pass it on to hubby?
    Sure, please do!

      I am reading it slowly and in stages. It is so good so far that I don't want to put it down. I make myself put it down so it will last longer.

        Wow, high praise indeed! *blushes* Thank you, I'm so glad you're enjoying it!

          I'll give it a go. Just be warned.

          #1.) I am more likely to critique grammar than plot.

          #2.) If I can't get into it in the first few pages, I probably won't finish it.

          Just wanted to be upfront. If that's OK with you, I'll PM my e-mail.

            LOL! That's totally fair: there are so many good books in the world that there's no point in pushing yourself through a pulp novel that you're not really interested in. If you do stop reading, though, could you at least drop a line to let me know what was the main obstacle to reading further, just so I know and can maybe fix it?

              Well..if you ever took a small look at the short story R.E.A.L. http://www.customerssuck.com/board/s...ad.php?t=67269 I posted..you will notice grammar and spelling are not my forte. However, if you want me to have a go at it, would be glad to.

              Engaged to the amazing Marmalady. She is my Silver Dragon, shining as bright as the sun. I her Black Dragon (though good honestly), dark as night..fierce and strong.

                Finished the prologue. Seems pretty good so far.

                BTW, I am keeping notes of my suggestions (which I do have already). Do you want me to wait 'til I finish, or would you like me to send it piece by piece?

                  All in one chunk is preferable, if you don't mind. Glad you made it through the prologue, I think that's the part I'm still not quite happy with.

                    Finished. I have a WordPad document with a detailed review, as well as all of my notes (most of which pertain to typos ) I'm e-mailing it right now in fact.

                          I read the whole thing yesterday

                          I really enjoyed it! I'm planning to read it again whith a notebook to give detailed feedback, which will likely be repetitions of what others have already said.

                                Ok, I think I'm going to stop sending the novel out now; I want to make sure I can handle the amount of feedback I get! Seriously, thanks to everyone who requested it: I'd thought I might get 4-5 requests, and I think I got 20-30!

                                Again, can't wait to hear what you think of it!
