Eddie & Goob - A Late Comment

Maybe you have a story inside you that deals with your relief work. Eddie & Goob solve a few problems, save a few lives, bring Bert & ZubZub to help, maybe even bring Alien.

Back to the story at hand. The theme to me is Eddie's ability to balance home life (reality) with new friends that are as real, but teach him more or allow him to illustrate lessons that will help kids gain their own identity.

To me, that is the brilliance of the story. It can lead to Eddie solving problems at home based on what he learned with Goob - who could be real or not. Your readers won't care. They just need
reninforcement to get through the day.

I see the audience as kids that want direction on basic good-bad issues.

There are movie producers out there waiting for your creativity.

Riley's Rest

This is late, but Riley's work needs further comments.

Superb writing. Great story. Can't get a better combination.

With a few hints about Meagan, could be a complete short story.

But also very worthy of a YA? novel. Almost adult with a few adjustments.

The rabbit - girl // death analogy is aching for development.

September 3 Posting: "The Dog & HIs Boy"

Just sent 18 new pages. Can't believe I actually got it down. Tramp meets new victims of Rodney's "Talented Animal-Napping"ring. And, he learns about making humans hear him.

Let me know if Tramp's world works.

I still have two bits to comment on. I will.
