Your writing is disturbingly realistic, LA. This is your darkest work to date. Take your time over it, because it looks very special. Thumbs up.
Some of the best writing I seen in a long time ! hahahaha phibes is back ! yes like my good friend white scorpion says it is indeed a great bit of writing please post more encore !
It's very good. Has a classic sort of feel to it, which is definitely a good thing. Really interesting start, and I agree with White Scorpion that it feels very real.
Based exclusively on this one article you have written I would say You are a great writer LA Mathews and should really think about publishing, with a proper deal perhaps
Thank you all for your kind words. To be honest, this is a piece that I'm actually quite proud of. I'm thinking of turning it into a short story, actually.
Ohh I love your beret, and the symbolism of that poicture is amazing, I bet you love having a good suck on a fag ! shame on you - not many welsh guys are that brave as to say in a picturew "look a me fellas I'm havin a suck on a fag "!
Yes...Thanks Ming. It's a Dai-cap (Flatcap), by the way, not a beret. But what do you think about the actual piece?
Everyone is right Mr Matthews you are indeed a brilliant writer and have managed to make writing now that is from a modern mind seem as though it could have been written by someone half a century ago - in other words you are and appear to have found a way to connect the past with the future - I like your writing in this way well built furniture was made until the 1940's after that, there were no really trully great cabinet makers. your writing comes from the hand of a new great cabinet maker 60 years after the last great one died out my highest compliments
