My friend, I pity the people who are going to read your author's notes then pass without reading the story. This is an excellent story, and they will go without reading it. It is a shame, because this very well written story is informative, as well as interesting. It held my attention all the way through it. I found it to be a wonderful, and I enjoyed reading it.
Always with respect,

Why would they read my notes and not the story? The story is what draws the reader's interest. I always write author's notes because Americans don't understand our culture but still, they are interested. Thank you friend, Kay. (what is best to call you? Eigle? That is just a site name?

They read the author's notes to find out what the story is about - then they come up with a review. That way, they make more member dollars without spending a lot of time on any one piece. Member dollars also draw the reader's interest. I can usually tell when they do that to me.
It doesn't really matter what you call me. My real name is my Pen Name spelled backwards - Elgie. It's just about as bad as Eigle. Rull, is the middle name of my father. I don't like the Pen Name I chose It is dumb, and hard to remember. I'm thinking of changing it to Ellis Rull - my father's first and last name.
Best wishes , my friend.
Always with respect,

Hmmm...I know people read for the site money - I like to inform folks about our culture. I don't think you can change your site name at this stage. We have 'nick-names' here, so I'll just call you Ellis for now. LOL.

That sounds perfect, my friend.

This is a very good story and was a pleasure to read. It's always nice when you see the good guys win and bullies get what they deserve.
Great story with a very important and strong message.

G'day Miss Sally, Thanks for reading and glad you enjoyed. Depends how many times you have been around the wheel of life! We are not strangers - we have all met at some stage of our many lifetimes. :-) Bless you, Kay.

I enjoyed the story because it shares a legend, and I always enjoy reading legends.
The only problem I think I found was a punctuation mistake. (Your people are weak and now you will starve - maybe find a snake in the tree to eat?) I think this should end with a period instead of a question mark. I'm not completely sure.
Again, I really enjoyed the story.
Thanks for sharing.

Another good legend, Kay, with a good lesson for all about unselfishness and its rewards, even though the awards don't always come immediately.
Hugs,
Lois
