Hi,
I am a poor (technically speaking) chess player, and would appreciate =
some advice on one of my, as yet, unpublished children's short stories =
which I have called Chessica.
It is a story of a little girl who daydreams her way into a chess world =
where she meets the Queen and . . .
If anybody would care to read this amusing little story I would =
appreciate any comment/suggestions, particularly about the accuracy of =
the chess pieces parts and moves. Maybe "fool's mate" is politically =
incorrect these days?
The full text is at:
http://www.oe.net.au/~thomasrh/chessica.htm
If published maybe it would help to encourage an early age interest in =
the game. Maybe it's not for children??
Please e-mail me at thomasrh@oe.net.au
Regards,
Ron
