You can see the cool new adventures. Sorry, no pics just yet, digital camera
still in repair but I will have the pictures up by next week or earlier. Oh
yeah, the stories can be viewed at http://dnd.izba.com/LEGO/lego.html Good
luck trying to understand it:)

Hi Slavick,

Nice! I like it, although it was pretty confusing at some points. Of course,
there is a lot of background info not filled in, and that creates a
mysterious air. (Which is good!)
A suggestion on clearing it up, though: try to keep the narration in a
single tense. That is, either tell all the story in past tense (They
*entered* the gate, he *said*, she *was* confused), or all in present tense
(They *enter* the gate, he *says*, she *is* confused). Don't mix them. It's
a common error in writing in general - more common yet if you're not writing
in your mother tongue. (I'm not sure if you are..) It happened to me a lot
when I started off, but a few people pointed it out to me and now I pay
attention.

However, in your story, the confusion of tenses might be attributed to the
severe blows and confusion caused to the characters! Good job portraying a
hectic environment.

Keep it up,
-Shiri

Yes English is my second language and as I said the pictures will be coming
up at the end of next week. Thanks for the input everyone!
