Lady Alaskastory,
A nice touch with the dialogue and Brook's internal musings. AS I said before, it is interesting to read of this sport and feel a certain familiarity with it through these individuals you characterize.
Nicely done,
Fantasist
For your consideration:
- Full chest - Um well, forgive me if I seem to devolve to a sexist comment, however I always thought of men as having broad chests; well-endowed women as filling their clothes.
- Not everyone understands the prevalence of crew cab trucks as most PUs only have two doors.

I love the integrity of your protagonist, Alaskastory. What a generous gesture on her part to move into another category in order for her 'rival' to gain the use of two more dogs. This story has a great moral timbre to it. A great read, my friend.
Blessings, Bev

Very descriptive from the start Marie. You employ strong verbs with sensory descriptions as good as anybody. Yet what you write is liked by most ages and it is fresh, original and never disappoints. Not to mention that we learn from this and get more than mere entertainment, we are educated. Stan

this is so well written, making a most
enjoyable read.
I wonder if my fresh-brushed hair distracts him[.](?) I took this as a question
He nods his head [nods] but doesn't bother to speak - lose 2nd "nods"
Well-penned, my friend.

Comment from irishauthorme
Had to fire my six-gun for this chapter, the interplay between Brook and James was some of your best writing. The chapter was well-coordinated, with everything that happened pertinent to the story. Brook's feelings and confusion were well told, and accurately reflect the emotions of a teen-age girl caught between her reason and her heart.
Very good work!
