All Comments on 'The Piano Teacher'

There were some silly mistakes that might lead to a flaming by the Lit Grammar Vigilantes...

However I'm not one of that brigade.

You are a good story teller, but you do need to pay a bit more attention to your spelling and grammar.

Please keep writing, just take more care!

All the best

Good story spoiled by the spelling and grammar mistakes. Take time to re read it, slowly, after writing it. Perhaps a days break could help. Keep writing.

The spelling complaints make me shudder if those readers are getting of on your stile and grammar instead of reading it in the language of the area you live in. My feeling is that they can't write themselves. I gave you 100 out of 100 points if that is allowed.

Very, very enjoyable story. Plot, dialogue, delicate build-up, and actions all done well and a credit to your planning.

As far as the unpublished grammar critics go, I have a personal preference to offer constructive grammar criticism in the private feed back mode. Perhaps they are so used to the crude comments that pass for conversation on Twitter that is has become ingrained to apply that behavior everywhere. It is uncivil conduct.

So far the only ones hinting at spelling and grammar problems are those decrying "unpublished grammar critics."

There are a few errors but nothing to diminish the story. The language is a little stilted, almost as if English is second language and as a result a great deal of care went into making sure the the language was used correctly. Certainly more formal than the subject matter needs but conversational English comes with practice, practice, practice even for those for whom English is first language.

Thank you for the offering. Please keep it up. We all get better as we write more.

I liked it a lot. If you didn't because of the spelling errors and a few grammatical errors, you were missing the POINT.

All in all a good story, written well enough.

I found the typos distracting, but not so much that I couldn't finish reading it!

Proof reading before publishing would be helpful.

Expertly written!

It seduced me with such well chosen words!! Ü

But I must say that it needs reediting! Quite a few syntax errors

and miss spellings.

Otherwise a Great story!!

Lol she was conveniently on the pill. "Hormonal reasons"

Overall sexy story

Beautifully written.

Your thoughtful, articulate style is a pleasure to read. You have a real talent for conveying the inner lives of interesting characters in all their complexity, uncertainty, and emotional weather. I really liked your description of Priscilla's performance and Chris's listening. It was moving and real. Thanks.

Amazing. I keep coming back to this romantic and sexy story time and again. Not least because I have a crush on my own piano teacher.

Keep writing. It's wonderful.
