Id think that 25 years in england would allow you to speak english fluently... This story is very well written, and the character of the fake lottery maker was intriguing. Great Read. Backed. AR Latif The Mr.Terry Mysteries

[QUOTE] Dropped by as I've only got 10 minutes - idea short story time. Loved the first story - the crisp writing, the thoughtful arc of the story. One glitch - which worried me as I'm a pedant - the Mekong doesn't flow through China. If you are making a point about Gumbolt not knowing where Sam came from, the racial difference, you may need to do it differently. That or leave it out - give him a Geordie accent, something like that could be just as foreign for someone in deepest East Anglia. Good luck with this - I'll be back next time I have 10 free minutes! j [ENDQUOTE] Thanks Jo. Wow, a short story read. I was beginning to think maybe these short stories were not public! I think the Mekong flows through southern China for a while. Perhaps I should make it the Yangtze though as a more obviously Chinese river.
