I'm surprised no one has ever come up with the concept of one of the characters visiting our world before. I agree that you had Eanrin down perfectly, and the whole story had me giggling and chuckling. The touch of seriousness about how our country used to love the Prince was a very good point that I'm glad you added. I hope you get first place!Christanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-91101689032578589902013-08-08T11:35:00.917-04:002013-08-08T11:35:00.917-04:00Thank you!

I had done a short story in the form of a letter earlier and I had really enjoyed the feel of it, so I decided to give it a try!<br /><br />Anna B: I'm glad you enjoyed it! I figured the title would be an eye catcher. *Snicker* You really ought to read the other stories too! We have a fantastic amount of talent this year!<br /><br />Maiden G: Heh, heh, I think he was arrested for turning into a man and drawing his knife on the poor fireman. But I suppose not paying his fare could have got him in trouble as well!Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15674350834544871474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-70964636517787492792013-08-06T14:25:42.631-04:002013-08-06T14:25:42.631-04:00I did not stop grinning from beginning to end!

Was it the turning into a man in front of the firemen (I love what he says there!) or leaving the bus without paying for his fare?<br />Maiden G.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-49148496888594884992013-08-06T08:53:55.395-04:002013-08-06T08:53:55.395-04:00Haha!

Yet I was scrolling through the titles, not sure if I was going to read one, and saw, "The Last Days of Bard Eanrin." That sure caught my attention. :) Anyway, good job!Anna B.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-26713271498977417552013-08-05T07:39:12.324-04:002013-08-05T07:39:12.324-04:00Absolutely hilarious!

Eanrin would be like, "Noooooooooo!"Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15674350834544871474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-28064393088776105442013-08-03T16:50:16.369-04:002013-08-03T16:50:16.369-04:00LOL! I am in stitches! My word, this story was so ...LOL! I am in stitches! My word, this story was so clever. I loved that it was written in epistle form, and, it was really neat figuring out what Eanrin was describing. Often, I teach descriptive writing to middle school-aged students, and one of the assignments is to describe something (like a piece of fruit), as if you are from another world or planet and have never encountered that object before. Your descriptions were fantastic! My favorite part was when the men said they didn't know whether to arrest him or "put him down", and, naturally, Eanrin prefers the latter. Hilareous! Like another commentor, I love the touch of seriousness about the land being ruled by the Dragon. Great observations.<br /><br />Of course, seeing Eanrin's ego still shine through was priceless, and, bravo! he finally professed his love to Imraldera! Methinks Prince Aethelbald made sure that letter was not lost! Ha! Terriffic job!

They loved it! I thought it was hilarious. When he turns into a man after they see him as a cat is the best part. No, actually, the best part is when the Prince opens a path and Eanrin realizes that his love confession was for nothing. Haha! <br />Also, the bit of seriousness when Eanrin said the world was under the Dragon's influence touched me. Took me aback after all that laughing and made the moment all the more poignant. <br />Wonderful job!
