I just read the first two chapters, as posted today.
Along with its sequels, it's a very good story (although an editor wouldn't go amiss). But is it the same as the previous version posted here? And didn't the story have a review - has that been deleted for all time?

It looks like the same story that's on Fine Stories by UtIdArWa, so does the other story by Mark Randall. It could be the same author, I don't know. If it worries you let Lazeez know and he'll take whatever action is needed, if any.

Only an utter moron would plagiarise two stories by the same author and post them as his own work on an affiliated site.
Then again, there are thieves of that type as it has happened before.
Presuming it is the same author, the question is why the change of name? Only the author and Lazeez would know.
Oops, it may be my mistake - I may have read the story on FS.
Speak in haste, repent at leisure :(

Because I have been having trouble pointing friends to my stories on this site, I have started another account on Stories On Line, using my real name Mark Randall. I will still post here, under the Utidarwa pen name. But I will also post on SOL. Be advised, SOL has adult content in it. So if that kind of stuff offends you, well, I'll still be publishing here.
Thank you.
At least something I wrote was correct - it's a very good story and I think most readers will enjoy it.

De nada AJ. I just finished reading the story over on FS and agree readers should enjoy it. I'll start reading the next part of the series tomorrow.
I post on both sites for the exact same reason. SOL has the most active community with constructive feedback. For family, young grandkids it is Finestories.

So I'm not going nuts (at least in this case). I swore I read these stories before not to long ago.
Yes you probably read the current SOL story on FineStories. All 5 stories of the Mountain Man series are posted on Finestories.
