RE: Showcase Sunday: The Orca and the Albatross

Damn! this one's More than amazing, truth is, I won't be able to replicate such quality, the prose outlines a certain kind of descriptive ability that allows a reader place themselves in the thick of the actions really. It was even more suspense filled seeing you utilized the first person point of view for this one. And the imageries of the areas lits it the sense, makes me wonder why you haven't even considered being a full-time novelist like you know, publishing really.
It's a great story, the Japanese names were surely hard for me to pronounce but there was the spice, writing this for two days was worth every second

Ahhh buddy... you're too kind. Thanks for the glowing review, I appreciate it big time :)

why you haven't even considered being a full-time novelist like you know, publishing really.

The truth is that I am and I do lol I keep most of my short stories back for sending to literary magazines these days.

Because of my ongoing illness, I can't really keep the levels of focus that are needed for planning and writing a professional level novel, but it's on the cards when I can finally work out the magic formula to heal this chronic condition. Life just throws you a curve ball sometimes, and you've just gotta get on with it to the best of your capabilities, unfortunately mine are, and have been, badly limited for the last 6 years.
