Ride For The Sun Ch. 02

What a great story!

A terriffic story as per usual. My only negative is "It sure was to short". I can only hope that there are more coming, as I really like woodmanones writing. These old west storys are superb,and only woodmanone is writing them at this point. MORE PLEASE

Great Story

I agree with Hodunk - would have liked a longer story and I hope there a more to come

Your western stories always have the elements....

Can't wait for the next installment. I admire how you keep tying in characters and locals from your previous stories. Keep em coming...Purdy Please.

you said the end. but i hoped there would be more to this little tale. emma and rafe together...

excellent tale

i love this tale and i hope you have more chapters coming .

was well written and very enjoyable to read thank you for posting

just great!!

loved it and sometimes a little less is better!

Delicious

as always. How about a twenty chapter saga?

Another Terrific Chapter

I join the chorus, Woody, in hope that you will add another episode to get Rafe and Emma started in their married life with family and on their own ranch.

Great story....

but it seems incomplete. I would love to see another installment and find out what happens to the tradition-bound Juanita.

Good story and fun read!

But I suggest you find yourself an editor, and I don't mean a line editor. To take your writing to the next level, you could use advice from a more advanced editor who can annotate things like repetition, how to improve interior dialogue, plot movement, tension, and subtle changes in point of view. Toward the end, you moved to the horse's POV. Do you really want that?

You do write well and tell a good yarn, and your writing is improving, but you could take the writing up another notch.

Another great story

Thank you for sharing it.

That's it?

A pity this story is so short. I like your western stories. You either learned what you're writing about, or you've done damn good research, but it sure as hell looks like you know what you're writing about. That makes your stories really engaging. I hope to read more some time.

More please

Woodman another great chapter keep up the great work and I can't wait for more of this story

excellent so far , I hope there is more coming , to many loose ends that need to be tied up .

Nice story

Like others commented, a nice story, but it felt a little rushed at the end. You have a good command of the period you write about and of the area of the west that are used as your locations. This could well be expanded into another chapter or two, because the budding attraction between Molly and Rafe is cut off at this point.

Looking forward to your next story.

definatly another chapter

not in so much a continuation, but what happens a few years down the road. like if rafe becomes a sheriff or takes over the r bar r

I'm enjoying this tale more than I thought I would

It's well written and paced. Thanks.

Well done.

Thanks

Well done

I thoroughly enjoyed your story. Thank you.

NUTS

Although I gave your story a 5 (most of it was pretty good), there was one phrase that was so irritating and unacceptable that I considered a 1. Instead I decided to point out the obnoxious and (in my opinion) inappropriate phrase: "THE END"

My guess is that most of your readers will agree with me.

In any case, THANK YOU!

It was just outstanding!

I did say outstanding, didn't I? Thanks for your story.

Very good

I am convinced you know Arizona well from personal experience now. At least from Showlow, Eager and Young, Payson, Happy Valley, Lake Mary, Verde river, down to Phoenix, up to Black Canyon and Flagstaff. Probably over to Prescott, Sedona, Williams and West as well. Good job writing. I guess I will have to read more stories to see. Ron Wood

Very good

Enjoyed the story so far but see another chapter. Sounds like a lot of the stories that are told in this part of the country. History at it's best.

Fine story

Yes indeed a right fine story.

I am perplexed

and a tad bumfuzzled. The tale concludes (?) with The End, but by lookin off to the East I can see Ch. 03. I'm guessin there is still more ridin afore we reach the end of the trail.

Good job

As usual, you know how to write a proper western tale. Good story line and well told. Characters well defined and you do know your terriority, especially Arizona. A true 5 from me with no negatives. Thanks for sharing. BK

5 star story again from a great story teller

True to the best westerns traditions! It's not a stroke story, thank goodness. It is about interesting locations and doings. It's also pretty true to the type of men and women who lived in that period, my grandpa being one.
