clanham, Son and Foe forum -- I love how much it says in so few words. It impresses me AND entertains me. [later post] The ending of For the Fairest is such a great little zinger. I think that's hard to achieve with a longer story, much less a really short one.

Jeremiah, Son and Foe forum -- For the Fairest I liked because it was so understated. It gives the setup, and then BAM, it's over with before you think it's even begun. For some reason it reminds me of British humor, of which I am also a fan.
