Mar/April '17 Lite Challenge: The Thieves of Geiros

[Mouse]

Wonderful! Splendid!

I think you might be missing an 's' from the end of the word 'get' in line 8 of the story?

(sorry - I'm in editing mode again!)

Looking forward to an excellent swashbuckling tale of heroism, betrayal and success against all the odds with a final twist at the end

@GLS thank you very much .. and yes, tarot card wise they don't get much more ominus than that

@mouse: lol.. yes, actually just edited that, wrote that a bit fast but since english is not my first language I miss something here and there - my biggest problem is writing in the same time (present/past) throughout my writing .. and thanks for the kind words - I've gone a bit astray from the big expensive books and straight to best selling popular literature

[Mouse]

Your English is better than a lot of English born writers (myself included)! I was regarding it as a simple typo

I think its better than a big shiny book now. Its become a big shiny adventure

[Falconius]

Another great and atmospheric cover. This contest may have started slow, but it's got a hell of a lot of good entires now.

[Bogie]

Since Mouse started the editing process there are 2 more to fix.
In line 5 it should read "he sets OFF on the journey"
and
in line 7 it should either be " a new friend is not" or "new friends ARE not"

On the other hand, the bookcover is looking AMAZING!!!!

[Mouse]

There you go, you see - told you my English wasn't really all that excellent. I miss all the little words by putting them in in my mind as I read what's actually there

[ChickPea]

This is looking great. I like the knife stuck into the map.

[Ilanthar]

Excellent! Glad to see you back, Tilt .
Oh, and I love this cryptic signature logo .

Thanks Falconius much appreciated

Thanks Bogie, I'll make sure to edit those

Hehe Mouse - I know what you mean.

Thanks ChickPea, I thought the knife would be cool - and I can imagine the poor mapmaker wanting to protest and yet - maybe not to the guy with the knife anyway

Thanks Ilanthar, its good to be back. Actually I liked the idea for this book so much that I'm now sketching the map for Geiros City and half thinking to write the book lol

[Mouse]

Don't 'half think' it. Do it

(And I'm the worst offender as far as that goes!)

Procrastination is like an incurable disease that only gets worse as you get older - and I know about these things because I'm older than you
