I’m going to go out on a limb and say sarcasticmuppet, who, if I am right, has done a fabulous job developing a plausible male voice.
I read it wrong then, cuz you did say I was a female, you just added this to it. I was being overly sensitive because Hobbes called me a boy in my College thread. I was probably being oversensitive there, too. I'm sorry Dierdre. Sorry Hobbes. Sorry cruel, cruel world.

I almost screamed out loud all freakin weekend long. This was great.

Thanks everyone for all the good reviews. The people who loved it made my weekend. The people who critiqued it pointed out some good points (the too many High Kings and your right, that one line just doesn't flow right.)

First, I am male, and not somebody unknown to these boards.

Second, Yes, I would stoop so low as to critque my own work, with a blatantly flattery filled critique, just to be sneaky, and because I like the flattery.

I think the fact that there wasn't one single joke throughout that bit (or the rest of the story either) made guessing difficult.

Finally, the bad news. I am considering dropping the story. The story is based on my readings of LeMorte De Arthor. A test audience that read the first few chapters seemed to get lost because I had too many references in there they did not know. Reworking it around those references is a chore I may not be up to.

Besides, I am stuck on Chapter 4. (Though Chapter 1-3 are fine, and chapter 8 is great. Its a bit of a patchwork).

Thanks for the laughs all.
