jazzfishHowever crapulent my story for class may be, it isn't Dragonlance.
See, we have to read two stories a day, and workshop them the next day.
I am currently reading someone's Dragonlance story. It started out with a dwarf. My initial reaction was "Oh, it's generic fantasy." It then mentioned Qualinesti. "Oh, it's generic fantasy that's stealing names from Dragonlance."
Then a kender showed up.
I am going to have to come up with something nice to say about this story.
Um. The actual plot portion isn't horrible. He could probably chop out most of the first forty percent, excise Dragonlance, rewrite what's left so that the prose is at least entertaining, and have a decent, vaguely creepy fantasy story. He'll get lots of good feedback.
