Thanks for your interest, I hope you read it.  The link is:

https://forums.nycmidnight.com/r1-grp-95-fantasy-dragonprow_topic20244.html

I actually asked a couple of friends if it was genuinely fantasy or if it was historical fiction with dragons, and they reckoned I was probably okay.  Smile  I had trouble squashing all I wanted into 2500 words as it was, I had to have something shared to build on or I would run clean out of words...

 Can the mistress of the house mould these ill-bred creatures into domesticated servants?

 


God bless you Ankh! I wondered when someone would pair the word pair with the au pairs. Now all I need is a pair of pears to feed the au pairs and I'll be pair fair! LOL

Just saw this! Hilarious - wish I'd used that line in the story!Tongue
