'Welcome to my section of the woods,' a soft voice speaks from the shadows. A relatively young elf dressed in green robes steps forward in your direction, wizard by the looks of him, and bows deeply. His black hair and green eyes contrast with the forest around him giving most visitors a momentary pause. 'Again, I welcome you. Please do not be shy and comment on anything you wish' –yet another bow— 'for it is sorely needed and much appreciated. I have never had a weak heart so please, if severe criticism is needed to make any piece of literature in my library better, do not hesitate to speak up. Thank you.' With another bow the green robed elf turns and walks back into the relative safety of the shadows to wait and greet his next guest. Suddenly the ground beneath your feet begins to move. Not in the shaking sensation of an earthquake, but in the sense that the walls of the world were moving around you. Swearing to yourself darkness momentarily takes you. When you finally open your eyes and look around, you realize that you are in the same part of the forest you were in earlier, except for one small change, the elf is missing. In his place stands a striking similar figure except he wears more modern day clothing and his rounded ears and eyes let you know of his human heritage. His blonde hair rustles in the slightly blowing breeze while his blue eyes survey your every move. His face is livid with emotion, unlike the elf, and as he moves closer to you, he extends his hand to help you regain your footing on such uneven terrain. 'Welcome, again, I guess,' a small laugh accompanies his confusing joke. 'Like my alter ego said earlier, please comment on everything you see. My name should be obvious' –suddenly strikes a daring pose—'Slaughter, John-Wesley Slaughter.' Sulks off muttering about how the 'Bond, James Bond' thing never seems to work for his name.

So you want to be a college player AND a writer? A Renaissance man, I see. Thanks for the comment in my gallery, I enjoyed my stay here.

:-) John-Wesley Slaughter replies: "Well I've been playing ball since I could walk so that's pretty much ingrained into me and as for the writing, well, I picked up a pen one day and found I enjoyed writing. Easy as that I guess 2Thanks for the comments!!"

I don't think I ever properly thanked you for commenting on my writing only the higher powers know how long ago. So thanks. I love everything you have here and can't wait for more. It's so well written.

Just leaving a not for everyone I can find in the library.

The Keys to becoming a successful author! Take care of them. - you must always remember this when you are writing. Sight, sound, taste, smell and feeling! They are simple, but many times, if you miss one of these, the book or story just isn’t what it could be! Don’t be afraid to describe in depth of what you see. Your readers don’t know your world. If you want to show them exactly what you are creating, you need to be specific!
