Barrdwing's Fic
Barrdwing ... My God!!
That was SENSATIONAL!!!!
Absolutely sensational!!
I love to see things through Tiny's eyes. He is such an underrated character -- but there is character there and HELL you pulled it off wonderfully.
Not scarey? Buddy, I am a Stephen King <salute> girl through and through and this is EXACTLY something I'd expect from one of his short stories.
Gosh, I felt like I was in Maine with Mr. King and reading something from his delightful mind!!!
That said -- Gawwd this is stunning and something I will not only read again and again, but will definitely recommend to EVERYONE!
I was hooked from the first paragraph ... Thank you!!
It makes me want to try a spooky one myself ... But I can't write good ghost stories ...
Thank you again ...
SJ

Loved it Barrdwing! You have such a way with words! You had Tiny down perfectly! I certainly hope you'll be writing more!

I agree. Barrdwing is a wonderful writer, and she needs to post a few more of her fics! I know she has some older ones that she could share with us...

I loved this Fic from Tiny's POV Bardwing. I love that I can see and feel exactly what Tiny does.
Please do keep writing more stories for us.

ITA w/SJ - very Stephen King!
I made the mistake of not heeding the warnings and reading this fic late at night, alone, and right before bed - I had goose bumps it was so creepy! I had to read something sweet and romantic before I could settle down.
A great, great story - and I particularly liked the POV and the voice you created for Tiny. The language style and patterns were valuable extension of his characterization. It wasn't a story about Tiny, it was Tiny's story - nicely done. Looking forward to more!

Excellent story Barrdwing! It's nice to see the Owl in the spotlight for a change. And your descriptions are great.

Oh wow . . . 
You guys are very kind! I'm very glad that you enjoyed this one: I had a lot of fun writing it, although truth be told I gave myself the creepycrawls while working on the middle section. (Seriously!) I'd figured I was just a wuss, but hearing that SJ and gogirl also found it suitably spooky makes me feel better. 
TJ is right, there's a backlog of stories that I need to post, plan to post, and will work on posting. I have a couple more ghost stories that are on that list, although one of them still needs overhauling, the pesky thing. <grumble> This is the only story so far from Tiny's POV, but there may be more someday: he's a fun voice to write.

Gooooo Barrdwing! Post, post, post!
I should point out that Barrwing has two other fics on the Fanfic Archives right now. And one is a Condor fic.

Barrdwing, I finally read your fic today. Awesome, awesome, awesome!! I love the thriller/"ghostly" aspect and how wonderfully you wrote it from Tiny's perspective. Now that TJ has pointed out that you've posted 2 other fics to Archives, I'm off to read (or at least bookmark) those!
Can't wait to read more of your stories, Barrdwing. You definitely write in a style/category that I thoroughly enjoy!

I guess maybe I do--thanks!
Although I'm not very good at posting things on-line . . . still kind of a noob. So it may take me a while to figure things out here (and some bugging of the veteran members!).
Posted by Transmute Jun on 15-11-2008 at 06:28:
Don't worry, Barrdwing. I'm sure we can arrange something to help you out.
