Bit of an Irish twang in there somewhere, so I read it straight up.

Your voice in this is perfect. It had that warming sound, where you know the author is going to deliver a cosy tale, read by an old fisherman with a pipe sticking out of his mouth next to a fire where other fishermen sit, listening to the yarn while sipping stout.

You probably don't know what I'm talking about, but I do. :-)

Great story. Well done

You have a way wit dem words...whoa, I should have waited until my head cleared to write this.

Being a fisherman, I throughly enjoyed this tale or tail, as the case may be. Fenton is a man after my own heart. The only difference is, I'd have mounted her...I mean stuffed her...well you know what I mean.

At first, I wasn't sure if I would like it with the dialect and all, but the more I read the more I enjoyed this! Great humor and creativity, thanks Laz.

When I read that first page, I knew the dialect and
Voice were perfect. Having finished the entire story, I'm absolutely bowled over by it. It's Laz's unique humor, written with a brand new take on grammar!
You nailed it!

Small world, isn't it. So Newfoundlanders, Texans, Welsh folks etc. have a lot more in common than meets the ears.

This was very fun and funny to read and creative and not too sure what all the fuss is about, the grammar and word usage was perfect fer me down here in South Texas.

Good one! Not sure where the idea for that one might have come from. And geez, how long did it take you to translate common English into your protagonist's accent/slang/idioms? Nice job on that.

No group in perticular, but in the fantasy category.
And Ken, he mounted the other half over his fireplace....not.
