I really enjoyed this story. Hope you write more of them.

Could be better!

A brave attempt to capture the poetry and romance of the 1001 nights. Sadly, this author is no Sheherazade. This story does have several problems, but it also demonstrates some interesting use of language. With care and practice, I hope to see more and better from this author

The main problem I find with this story is that no storyteller, wherever they were in the world would tell this tale to “youngsters” in the corner of a marketplace. At least he wouldn’t get beyond describing Aziz’s dick. There is also the issue of our hero’s profession. In one sentence, he is a tailor, yet in the next sentence he is a cobbler.

Certainly the services of a good editor would help but a lot of the issues with this story could be resolved by the author merely reading through their own work.
