I don't know where you are going with this exactly, but you have got my attention and I am willing to follow along to see what develops. I love your expressions so far 'patch eye' is one I have not heard in some time. It gave me a chuckle.

Comment from F. William Lester
An interesting story, but confusing. To begin with, there wasn't a hook in the opening paragraph. An opening line that drew me in and made me want to continue reading. You said you were going to introduce the main character, but I still don't know who he is. I know he is about 15 or 16, blond hair, getting a scene style, but no name or other distinguishing personality characteristics. What is the conflict or where is the story going? It's evident the town is a hole with some quirky or unsavory characters. The last two paragraphs appeared to veer off in a different direction, especially the last one. The last one or two lines were totally confusing. Having said all this, the story has potential. My comments may be harsh, but if you're going to invest the time and energy into the project, best to catch the issues early before you get too deep. I did find your descriptions well done. Thanks for sharing your work. Good luck; good writing and stay well.

The picture drew me in. The writing kept my interest. Kind of wondering where the plot goes from here. It's nice to catch a story as it's starting out. Good luck.

Interesting beginning. The hero just escaped punished because he dance shoeless and socks less.. Then the conversation in the bar and the hair cut...

Quite an interesting character that hates shoes, socks and other things that are covering the feet. It seems like a joyful book. Thank you for sharing and good luck with the next chapter.

It's late in the week and I'm all out of bullets, gall-darn-it. It sure disappoints me, because I enjoyed the reading more than I'm able to reward. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
From the picture I mistakenly was looking for a kid's chapter book. Does family realize he's running numbers? Paragraph 6 seems like " . .hard wood." should end the sentence. "The dive . . . was seems better than became . . ." "Ain't he the one . . ." don't understand the rest of the sentence, sorry. Don't understand what bartender is talking about either. Is there a tantalizing hint of the mystery/crime that's going to happen? Didn't spot it.

Back in the day when you could get a haircut without wearing a mask pulled up over you mouth and nose. Bring them back and keep the old sheriff, too. Along with open carry. Love the art and the straight shooter writing.
