| Interesting beginning, and refreshing in its honesty about things like smells. There were a couple of awkward places where the point of view jumped mid-paragraph, but otherwise you did a good job of indicating whose head we were in. |

Thanks JennnLee. Had spotted those bits you mention - think it's twice - as I was re-reading it again just now. Will fiddle about with them and see what I can do.
EDIT - Duly fiddled with and hopefully even clearer now. Thanks  |

| Ba ha ha! very enjoyable - liked your 'false' beginning, like that Penny has no clue where she is, and that you pick a secondary character for her to meet. It's definately an anti-Sue. I'll look forward to more. |

| *snurf*... That opening sequence was classic! I love the many mentions of head rolling, and the fact that our heroine is in her PJs. And this description: "Mad as a bicycle. Very sweet but completely barking." Priceless. And leeches... oh nooooooo. Am giggling like a loon. This is so perfect. |

I must heartily agree with Viv, that "mad as a bicycle" bit cracked me up to no end!
Great realism, love the humor and I for sure can't wait to see what happens to Penny...and poor, poor Halbarad. |

Wow! Thanks, guys. *is speechless* Glad that people are enjoying this so far and finding the whole idea as funny as I do. (How funny it will remain I am not sure though.... wait till she gets to Bree... Ack! ) And thank you Viv for coming up with this suggestion in the first place. So if it all goes horribly wrong and Halabarad loses it and kills her we can all blame you, right?  |
