I am so thrilled to be introduced to an art that I thought was lost. I reveled as a child to hear on the radio the stories that crackled by in the night. Paulette really understands drama and presents her story in a very clear and compelling way. She promises twists and turns and I am very much awaiting to see what awaits on this journey.
I await with anticipation each new episode as it is revealed.
Live for the journey,

Hi
I have to say that I’m really enjoying this podcast. Like I stated on the phone, I really like how semi-generic it is (which is a compliment) so that a reader/listener doesn’t’ have to digest this entire world up front with six chapters of world building. On the other hand, things are just original enough to make them great!
I like the pacing, it’s not too long or to short, and your “The Story So Far” intro’s aren’t 3 & 4 minutes long (at least not yet).
Great job all around and I’m looking forward to more.
Thank you for all your time and effort in putting this together.
Thank you so very much for this fine adventure fantasy work. I have already listened to the first, four episodes of “The Empress Sword” and it is just like finishing a meal at a Chinese restaurant – thirty minutes later you are hungry for more ( I mean this in only the nicest sense). The story is very pleasing so far, with interesting plot and characters, and let me not forget to add that the the voice characterizations are nicely done (and with proper restraint). I’m that this work will soon be receiving the attention it deserves.
Thank you for this story. I’m eagerly awaiting the next installment (and the next – etc.) to see how the story unfolds. I appreciate the way characters are portrayed – including not using the simple: all good / all evil dichotomy – such as including the dragon’s motivation for burning villages and people vs the king’s and others view of the dragon. Cheers.
