Sometimes we just have our own writing style. If you find the right audience it won't matter so much if you have long sentences or whatever. I've never read Ron's work, or I don't think I have, but I'm sure he's very talented.

So, by this I would take it that you reckon I should read Ron Craig? Hmm. Okay I'll bite, never heard of the bloke is he good or some sort of drongo? Take this with a grin Geoff, sincerely Anne.
Now I'll go find Ron!

    You would love him Anne similar Calibre to Mastery some similar sorts of stories. Ron is mentioning me in his Acknowledgements of his latest book for catching a lot of his as I call em "Spagarama" (copyright term of mine ok!) BY the way are you aware that Tom Ens maintenance time is around 5pm to 6pm our time? If you have ever had trouble getting on FS at that time that is why. They do it in the middle of the night USA time which is our tea time. Just so you know. Thanks for the review look for Roncraig, I think.

It's not paying but that's okay.
I love your new term 'Spagarama'. I'd say that describes the state of most first drafts. lol
Loved reading this. Your rhyme is good and now I know a little bit about Ron Craig.

Need to take a look at this author's work when I can, and like very creative writing...non boring material that seems to grab one's attention. Thanks for letting us know with your entertaining poetry and author notes.

Your opinion has been well expressed.
It is good to see that small annoyances don't detract from the
subject and quality of the story.
I like the image and presentation.

I am not familiar with the author, Ron Craig, but this whimsical tribute is cute and funny. I enjoyed your coined word, "Spagaramas".

Nice work, enjoyable and read smoothly, Sankey.

Have a great Sunday,
Senyai

If a writer can make sense with long sentences, that's fine. We usually associate long sentences with those literary giants, like William Faulkner. It's a matter of style and what works for that particular story. I'm not familiar with Ron Craig's work. Will have to check that out. Interesting, engaging style. You're rhyming is excellent. Great lines about Ron galloping off on his steed. Suggests his writing is fast-paced and exciting. judi

A couple of lovely self created words here, you have already put your hand up to spagoramas but I like apprentences as well. Is a phrase and apprentence, an apprentice sentence? It will need to grow into a verb at some stage, but not perhaps just yet.

    Thanks Pantygynt. Appreciate the lovely review. Glad you like my new words. Here in Australia, you often find a new word only has to get used for a short time and it turns up as accepted for general use in our Macquarie Dictionary, hehe. One of my others is "Cerebral haemorrhoid" As opposed to Cerebral haemorrhage ( blood clot in the brain) Cerebral haemorrhoid means being angry from top to bottom! Check my "Geoffossary" Last Chapter in The Little Dog That Wouldn't Let Go- Subtitled God NEVER Lets Go" still being worked on.

    Are cerebral haemorrhoids piles of brains or piles on the brain? I need the answer for some self diagnosis.
reply by the author on 08-May-2016
    Nah Cerebral Haemorrage(sp??) is blood clotting in the brain often a cause of stroke or can be lethal as I have knownof several cases. My whacky word Cerebral Haemorrhoid(sp?) is being really angry or upset from the top of your head to your feet. Thanks for asking.

I do enjoy what you write and especially when you explain why you have written a piece. It puts it all into context for a better understanding. I get a kick out of your humor and it is so refreshing. Keep it up as it is appreciated. Great job.
