Discussion of "The untimely appearance of Lady Alexandra Jane’s ghost" by dogdeity11

Sorry it took me so long to read and vote...but I am only partially at fault. Dog...how do I say this, politely...between invisible friends? I would have responded sooner, but the piece is SO FREAKING LONG!

Having read it I thank you for giving me my favorite line of the day...'he mumbled something that smelled like whiskey.'

So where's the ghost?

thanks for reading alharris. yea, this was probably not a good fit for SM as it was a bit long. It was just a left over character sketch I was working on for another project. there were a few things i really liked about it so figured i would post and see if anyone was up for mashing it. i honestly have no idea where the ghost fits in. i just made up what i thought would be a fun title. lol

Hey, dog....every time you're gone for more than a week or three, you come back and knock my socks off...lol. Yeah. a tad long, especially for a character sketch!!

Bad timing, my friend. Most of us are wrapped up in ...whatever the current mash project is being called; otherwise, I'd really give this one a long look for a mash.

Thanks WWB. I wasn't aware that SM still did projects...that's great news.

It's not SM sponsored. I think alharris mentioned doing something, JD picked up on it, Aggeloi kicked a boost and then...everyone else piled on...lol. Hell, even Nash came out of his lurking mode!!

I think, in fact, that alharris is looking to start a second group...hit him up...;o)

Very interesting approach to a story...you really are a gifted writer. I ignore alot of new material here at SM. It is just to many writers to read them all. So I look for my favs, and I am truly glad to see your back for a spell. I love to read your work, I have said it many times before, and I will say it again.
I, like the others wondered about the ghost as well, and saw that you commented concerning it. I was really looking forward to you giving me chills, but all in all this was worth reading...which your work always is. Look for me to be posting something new soon.

Good writing as usual. This speaks of a departure in sorts of style but a very well written piece ... For some reason I hearkened back to John D MacDonald, while reading this. Consider it a compliment because you don't have one particular style you write with a lot of passion and skill and in many interesting ways, gifted-ly so.
