Welcome back! I was wondering where you were last week.

ReplyDeleteSuch a vivid scene. You managed to convey a lot in eight sentences :-)
ReplyDeleteHa! He's painting a grim picture for her and it's a joy to read!
ReplyDeleteThat food must be really bad. I guess I wouldn't want to live in the fairy world. Good snippet, Linda.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll stay right here in NY after reading this snippet. Great descriptions. YIKES!
ReplyDeletePoor Kallisto, what a fate awaits her! Interesting description of things in the Fairy World...great snippet!
ReplyDeleteHe's torturing her. Mean, mean Kelpie!
ReplyDeleteI never thought much about fairy food. Nice touch.
ReplyDeleteUgh. Don't marry the guy!
ReplyDeleteUgh. She really needs to get out of marrying that guy! You did a great job making him as horrible as the food.:)Good 8 Linda!
