Jim Webster, (In On a Chance! )
And another review :-)All Jim Websters expected miniaturists eye mix of detailed world and character building, whimsy,Keaton like madcap action and philosophy. Excellent as ever

I must admit I was a bit surprised by the 'miniaturists eye'I do put in detail because I feel that used correctly, detail gives depth and reality
I'm just hoping it's Buster Keaton the reviewer has in mind :-)
Obviously my childhood watching old silent films on 'The Golden Silents' TV show has paid off :-)
And another review!David Hadley reviewed The Cartographer's Apprentice

These are four excellent short stories introducing the early days of Benor
These are four excellent short stories introducing the early days of Benor. Each tale pulses with humour as the well-drawn characters engage in various adventures. Each story features great dialogue, lots of good food, wine and ale, all taking place in a believable and well-drawn world where the streets pulse with life. The reader gets a powerful sense of being there in a real world with real people going about their real lives.
I look forward to reading the next book and wish I’d read this one far sooner.
David writes so beautifully :-)
Thanks, made my day, shallow that I am
In other words - you're a stonking good writer!
I'm not kidding.

I'm sure you can. You are a most accomplished gentleman.

And I amaze people with my modesty as well

There will be more reviews when I get around to reading the other books of yours that have slipped down the back of my Kindle.
Along with some fluff, half sucked sweets and bus tickets? Plus a few pre decimal coins...
Don't knock it, I've kept worse company :-)Genuinely glad you liked it David
Me too, I read them all far too fast. I want more now. I’ve tried reading the bus ticket but the sucked sweet is stuck to it and won’t come off!Cheers
MTM

It is near a portal to another dimension where it is rumoured single socks lie in wait to attack lost pens.

Where's the dog stretched out on one end, though?

Where is the odd shoe and coat hanger generator located?

Yes, there are a massive number of Lost Boys by now.
I would love to know what he thought when he woke up the next day and was told what he was doing.

I confess that the nature of the crime committed was severely limited by the out of copyright paintings available.
Had Rembrandt painted somebody stealing a urinal divider wall, I would have written the story
Were there ANY pictures of somebody stealing a urinal divider wall? It does seem a bit niche...
given the nature of modern art I wouldn't be surprised if the urinal divider wall wasn't an artwork in its own right!
You're most likely right. The Tate Modern would be sorely lacking without at least one...

then with a series of hopelessly lost drunks who keep using it for its assumed purpose :-)
And with some random phone numbers and rude messages scrawled on it.
You'd be surprised at what can be considered art. I am exhibiting in a show in a nearby village at the moment - paintings and sculpture - and in the larger hall we have set out three small tables so that visitors can, if they wish, enjoy a cup of tea and some home baking whilst mid perusal of the artworks. One visitor earlier in the week had thought the tables were an "installation". To be fair my small floral arrangements on each were pretty impressive.
If you drop a used tissue on the floor that will become a piece of art!
When I saw a calf in a tank of formalin being art, I gave up being surprised :-)
That sounds like the leavings of a decommissioned science lab.
a decommissioned science lab would be more interesting!
