Wow
OK, that got very real all of a sudden.
I sure wasn't expecting that little quiet plot twist
Nicely descriptive evisceration though

Thank you, Tim, for this incredible review. It's taken me most of my life to find the courage to write a novel. I am dyslexic, which has held me back some. But I've managed to get this far. It takes me hours to edit, and yet I still tend to miss things, Lol.
Thank you again for reading.
God bless,
Steve

Dyslexia is no reason to not write, use an online editor - I do - to check and correct grammar and spelling etc.
My editing was terrible until I found one I could get on with. I use Grammarly.
Writing is about passion, the technical side comes later on, so keep the passion and love what you do.

Thank you, Tim. I use Grammarly as well. I have come a long way since starting this book. There are so many wonderful folks who have helped me along the way. Thank you, Tim, for your encouragement. I love to write and can't wait until I can do it full-time.

Yippee skippy. I guess Grandma did not have as bad a temper as Dodie Ray. I went one, two, four, then three. Sorry I read out of order. Now I am caught up with the four reviews I owed you. Karen

Lol, I just asked if you skipped a chapter in the review. Yea! Dodie Rae took it to another level. Thank you for the excellent review, my friend. I'm struggling with the word review, today. I'm dyslexic and today it's more challenging than usual. I keep typing (reivew)
God bless,
Steve

Have you thought of using voice typing? I like typing, but others do not, my hands seem to like the typing. But other flks have switched to voice because of their hands. It might be good for you. Do not think of it as giving up, think of it as an additional bow you dyslexia, he also gave you the "Voice". Think about that. Yes, I am bossy. :-)

I do it on my phone, but not my PC. I have thought about it, but dyslexia also affects my speech as I mix similar-sounding words a lot.
Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
YES!! Now he won't be hurting her again. LOL I wonder if her grandmother is a werewolf as well. But her husband lived. Hmm. There is more to that bottle than we believe. On to the next chapter. :)) Sandra xx

Comment from GWHARGIS
Dang! Wasn't expecting that at all. I thought maybe it would allow her to hypnotize him. But, no, in true Stephen King/It fashion you have her turn into a blood thirsty monster. This is so unexpected. It's great!! I'm waiting for more. Gretchen

I won't be able to sleep after these encouraging reviews, my friend. I know the whole story and where I want to go with it, but Dodie tends to derail some of my ideas, and I'm fine with that.
God bless,
Steve
Comment from davisr (Rhonda)
Well, hi Neo,
This is the first chapter I've seen of your book. It's raw and exciting, just like a werewolf story should be. Good luck with your story. I'll try to go back and catch up.
Take care,
Rhonda

This is graphic writing that withholds nothing. It seems that Richard has received his just desserts and then some. The question is, what happens next?

Thank you, Tony. I am working on the next chapter now, and will have it by Sunday. I have a vacation starting July, 15th. I plan on getting quite a few chapters finished then.
Thank you
God bless,

Comment from Wayne Fowler
I think I'll take a pass on the 'essence', thank you. It sounds rather harsh. Not to say that Richard didn't deserve it, mind you.
Very well written. the action sounded authentic (I think). smiley face here

Thank you, Wayne, for the excellent review. The essence did the opposite for Dodie Rae, than it did for her grandmother.

Comment from Ulla
Oh dear, apart from him being dead, it's a certainty that he will ever hit her or anyone else for that matter. I can sympathise but I wouldn't like to turn into a vampire. An intriguing story. Ulla:)))

Comment from GoWiSt
"Dodie Rae and her husband Richard experience the essence." Geez Louise, gaddamn, I'll say!
Did Dodie always have this beast in her? Or was it something she picked up lately from Grandma's?
Either way, Richie boy had it coming. And, oh boy, did he get it good--or bad, depending on your perspective.
Dodie's next boo better watch out.

Ha! Ha!
Thank you, GoWiSt, for this excellent review, my friend. It's definitely what she picked up from grandma. The next chapter(coming Sunday) will give you an idea of what she's become.
