Hi, Barb,
Love how Clyde could be bought for peach pie and 'nilla ice cream. Come to think of it---so could I. LOL
They just might find out something.
Cheers & Blessings

I like this one. At least they found someone that might know something. Nice touch with the "peach pie and a big scoop of 'nilla ice cream"...sounds pretty good to me right now.
"I found one sentence you might want to look at:
we can finish the conversation to the parlor...you might want to change this to...we can take this conversation to the parlor...or...we can finish this conversation in the parlor...

Thank you for catching that. I made the change.

I understand why you placed the warning in your author's notes about the dialect, but as someone who only happens across your posts once in awhile, I wanted to tell you the dialect does not bother me at all. I think the main thing is that you don't tweak the spelling of every single word (that would get too clunky). I think the dialect, like the landscape, can almost become a character in and of itself because of where your story takes place. Without it, your story would not be as multi-dimensional. Great job. I always enjoy reading your chapters because they are so polished. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Barbra,
I enjoyed this chapter and the exploration of the Black part of town. One thing; Have you noticed that white people's dogs bark at black people? The same happens with dogs that belong to black people. I've experienced that the first time I've been with blacks that had dogs the first time I met them. I think the dog in your scene should be wary and growl, it would add more tension. Just a suggestion. Great job--Ted

I have not noticed that, but....since I have been an adult I have lived on military posts, my husband is retired active Army, and we all live together, so the dogs grow up in a multicultural environment.

Hi Barbie, a very interesting chapter. We too, have areas here where the white man is careful to tread, so your cautious tension worked well. I like the way Cash approaches problems. Well written. luv jada

Excellent, as always. Your dialogue leaves nothing to criticize, it is well done and believable. The plot is moving along at just the right pace. I can't wait to find out about that treasure!
