All Comments on 'River Spirit'

I was hooked hook line and sinker when you said you liked fishing and then the nymph well this was a long tale but well worth the read, excellent story and good luck (~_~)

I liked your story but it left me wondering if there are male river spirits somewhere. Please?

Good luck in the contest.

Great story. She was just a bit too human, though.

A great contest entry! Good luck!

Awesome. Especially because I grew up in Colorado and love fishing too. I wonder, if I put a large lake on my horse farm there will I get a girl like that too?

:)

PS- that was soooooooo sweet.

Imaginative, well written, sexy...thanks.

That story was damn good. I was never into non-human, but the way you described Nixy made her sound sexy as hell. I hope theres a chapter 2.

The beautiful depictions of this divine rivernymph should stimulate any sensious person's senses. The ecology-storyline sometimes narrowly misses Captain Planet, but is counterbalanced by very accurate descriptions of the power-relationships in the natural and human context surrounding the river as its central locus. The mythological allusions, however, are very involved into the fabric of the work, creating a near-monist interpretation of a world-mind (To understand this last comment, you must have read Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit, preferably in German.)

...thank you, hon! You evoked the emotion that I mentioned wanting to read. Beautiful, sensuous, charming, loving and erotic. What a combination. Good luck, sweetheart! ~Minx

It sucked me in. I am not an avid reader but once I started reading I had to read the whole story. the emotion and feelings the story engendered made me feel as if I was there with Nixy.

Beautiful. More.

Wouldn't be neat if Nixie had a surprise for him as well?

Not every single earth day story in the fantasy section was about pollution and nymphs? Not only that, they always win. And inexplicably I read them. Be quad they're usually well written with a twist or two, even though they follow the same tired formula.

Nymph: they're killing me

Guy: omfgwtf how could they

Nymph: sadface

Guy: I'll save you!

Problem causer: I don't care

Guy: omgwtf how could you

*insert method of day saving here*

The end.

There are probably hundreds of earth day submissions that read like that. I would love some variety.

This is one story that can really get you thinking on how everything in nature is interconnected. I can only hope that the bigwigs in Washington get thier act together, and stop screwing up the planet.

Please see my story "Nature Lover." Some similar elements, but a very different story.

Very happy to see others sharing some of my thoughts.

...as the British would say, but I like to see some resistance, some adaptation effort going. Nixie, or whatever her name, fell all too easy into the arms of that American Hunk. See NEYTERI for details... also, if Nixie doesn´t eat, doesn´t bleed, then arguably she doesn´t sexually reproduce and has no need for a vagina, right? That would be some great piece of dialogue... ("human women have holes to make the man happy. I dont have that. We must find some other way...")

Good story. Plot was smooth. The excessive use of the words "really" and "actually" were a minor annoyance at first but then became so off-putting I ended up skimming over a lot of the story.

I loved how you were able to take something completely unreal and make me almost believe in it. You have a very real style of writing. Taking the impossible and making it seem almost plausible. Nice Job.

Sweet!

Something to read on a cold night and makes one feel warm.

Thanks
