Nice review...!

Just clicking around today, I found a review of Aeon 6 at Tangent Online. The reviewer had nice things to say about my tale, "A Brotherhood of Trees":
This issue of Aeon really picks up with “The Brotherhood of Trees” by Michael Jasper. This is a smoothly-flowing piece, with an excellent feel and some great descriptive prose. An aging man finds a naked boy in the woods, a silent spectre that seems to do nothing but listen. Where is this androgynous creature from, and why are his fingers singed? The protagonist and his partner are depicted with compassion and pathos, and not the over-the-top camp behavior many other authors use to depict gay characters. This, coupled with the neat backstory and polished prose, makes this a tale worth reading.
Whew. Glad I was able to pull that off!

Now if I could just get my contributor's copy of this issue... Later!

EDIT: Oh, and the boy wasn't naked, either... Sheesh.
