Intriguing little chapter
Archie in full knight armour defending the garden from the little buggers. Life goes on, the garden must survive. Thank you for sharing and good luck with the next chapter.

Thank you so much, Iza, for both the review and simply because your support is wonderful!! :) Of course, you know why I'm so late, but I do apologize!! Gonna get on top of this soon and be back to a 'new normal' .... I am an optimist! ;) Yvette
Comment from poetwatch
Such a gallent knight Sir Archibald is to indulge himself in a battle with those pesky imps. I assume he's the protector of Nicholas. You got a good story going Yvette. Hope you got time for the other two. :)

Thanx so much for the review, Jose -- your support is always so wonderful and I am forever grateful!! ;) Hope things are good over there!! ;)
I do so apologize for the tardiness (and cut-and-pastiness!) of this response, I have been (still am!) in the midst of converting everything to online learning for the mandated school closings for the foreseeable future. Once I get ?ahead? in this ?change of venues? (i.e., instruction in cyberspace ? lol!), I promise to be back to ?me? in my responses? you know, the crazy blonde fantasy chick! ;) ;)
Be safe and, remember, if you see any offerings/reviews from me, they are my ?escape? from this insanity? you know, my pressure release valve!! ;) ;)
Take care of you and we?ll be sailing smoothly again in a few more days? hopefully!
Comment from w.j.debi
Oh, it was delightful to see this new chapter pop up. The groundskeeper just keeps meeting more creatures. At least he has earned a few allies so far. Those imps appear to be trouble.
I love the description of the imp falling with the sound of an 'un-oiled hinge'. It is such an easy sound to imagine and so descriptive.
Looks like Constantine and Sir Archie have the situation well in hand. Or so we think...

Don't work too hard and stay safe. Good luck with the new challenge
Comment from aryr
This indeed was an action packed chapter. It was easy to pick up and follow. Oh those nasty imps, Sir Archibald definitely took care of them. It would be interesting to know what was in the spray. It didn't seem to kill them, just immobilize them. Great job Yvette.

Awe, Yvette, another great little chapter to this delightful story. I thoroughly enjoy it and I think it's a great story aimed at pre-teen audience. I'm looking forward to what's next. Ulla:)))

C7 -Those Pesky Imps
by Y. M. Roger
Hello, Yvette,
It amazes me the way you created a fantasy world in a garden. It's easy to imagine the little imps, the armadillo, and the gnome Constantine. Great characters. Great story. Good job with the chapter. Take care my friend.

Wonderful whimsy here. Vivid imagery and fresh humor. Boy, these are one mischievous bunch of buggers. Love the blueberry SPLAT! Sets the tone and takes off from there! Cheers. LIZ

You're so funny... I have no earthly idea how you keep all of these straight. One day I'm going to see imps dancing around the garden with Bongo and I'll know you've gotten all mixed up! LOL Love you! :)

LOL!! You never know... with all this 'onlining and streamlining and trotlining.... :) Okay, the last one there is a fishing thing, I just couldn't think of anything else! ;) :) Take care and thank you for everything! ;)
Comment from lyenochka
Well, that was a thing. It's good Sir Archibald knew how to handle those "imps." But I'm curious as to what was in the spray and how did Archie know to use it. And what did it smell like other than it feeling sticky? Enjoyable cast of characters!

Comment from Ricky1024
This was my second dose for chapter of your book Yvette.
I like the action in the blueberry splattering and then the mist almost like Raid!
...
This was well written and rich in Theme and Imagery.
It read well and flowed well with no Grammar Issues.
...
Complete Synopsis:
The Adjective and Objective Contents were both Excellent and Exceptional while Descriptive Measures aligned Perfectly.
Thanks,
Doctor Ricky 1024
