As you begin to develop it is important to show not tell in writing. It is through the description , action, and details where the story comes to life for an audience. Let us know about the characters, give them detailing and depth. A face the audience can know and feel with.
You have some tenses issues, In writing it is better to use past tense instead of future and present unless for narrative purposes as it makes the action flow better to a reader.
Work hard on that beginning it needs to be a plunge to acquire and audiences attentions.
Good luck.

Good to see your using a my advice. Introductions are always difficult, but it gets easier over time. Sentence structure is solid here, thought a few mistakes in spelling and grammar again. Do you have a word processor? I find that typing it in that, then copying it over to a text file for easy access works well. Just keep writing the the words will keep flowing.
The check certainly helped, I can tell. To get rid of the annoying diamonds with question marks, when you save your text file, change the encoding from ANSI(that's what the default is for me anyway) to UTF-8. A few missing quotation marks and periods here and there, but that's just nitpicking.
I enjoyed the story.
Been a while I actualy writen anything and I am trying to get a story of my own sooner or later.
Seen some spelling and punctuation mistakes.
Kind of funny to see these in other people works and not your own.
I also would like to know more about the main char.
Im just wondering how many mistakes I will have when I get to my own.

Decent story. To be entirely honest, it seems a bit on the simple side. There is no real depth to the story, and I swear while reading it the image I kept getting was somebody reading a children's novel to a group of kids, what with the narration and all. I would avoid using phrases like "One Saturday Rex decided to go to the lake . . . " to avoid that effect. On a similar complaint, put more detail in the characters involved. The evil anthro dragon is . . . well, just that. Nobody knows even what color he is, how tall, or whatever.
So far this sounds like a teaser, if nothing else. I'd say work on your detail, change the style from narration (Unless that's actually what you're shooting for, as it sometimes does work *Points towards A Series of Unfortunate Events* ) to something else, and make your next story about . . mmmm . . double this length?

Finally wound up reading your story at 2 in the morning. LOL! But I finally got around to it! Well, I do have a few comments to make, but it would be very hard to avoid copying other comments. *chuckles* All I can say is keep on writing! Just like drawing, you will improve as you continue. The story I was working on, mentioned it several times when we last talked, was literally picked apart by one professional critic (and he was a bit of an a-hole while doing so) but I learned, and now I'm completely rebooting it with what I learned from the experience! Still, as I have just stated, try and try again, and you will succeed! This story is a good first step alright, and listening and learning is the best way of becoming a better writer! Good luck, Rex!
LOL i was wondering when you would read it.
Yea i got tons of tips from
