Hi, Dave, Mrs Moffett here sending a public rev for your traditional short story submission:

 Invalid Item Open in new Window.
This item number is not valid.

The story is a good one, very interesting and well done. Thank you for the information you provide for this Mozambique setting. Placing the intro stats right up front helps make this tale

Thank you for all background information, citations, research. Allowing for the subject of ducks, this took me back. Yes, rather about the herding.

Oh, alas, profitable money exchanges, Christmas dinners after all the waddling to town. WHERE --- your entire tale impresses me similarly to Alexander McCall Smith.

In fact, I went to his website after reading this looking for works of quality, like yours.

Oh and by the way --- You've won second place this year in 2011's "Invalid ItemOpen in new Window.

I wondered if the black backed ducks were similar to Rouens, popular here in the states.

Setting strong & provides that African vastness, we crave so well in an escape requirement for reading.

*Heart* "pemrnently melancholy"
Character names --- Paito, Miss Machado & their dialoge
Details for "Opa's jewelry business" bargaining with Amersterdam

This story also tells me, as your work has won in previous Christmas Genre contests ... Dave, hon, you carry keene versatility RE: range of your fiction.

The story is memorable as well, enjoyed about two weeks ago. And I shall be forever grateful that you struck up that conversation with your story teller whom piques your interest from the start.

BRAVO!!

Cordially, TEFF
