Haha, Debi!
I figured there was some truth to this piece. It was entertaining, and I hope your husband got a kick out of it! Way to go to get his attention!!! Ha!
It appears you have a fun relationship--poetry denied! Best, JohnC

Hi John, Hahaha! Yes, he thought it was funny, but said he hopes nobody he knows ever writes there or he may have to start screening me. Lol... This court case and complaints were all fiction, but non-fiction was my husband hating poetry and doing the shopping and helps with the cooking and dishes. I purposely wrote this to show the good guy he is, gave him the better attorney and made him look good. Lol, even in a vote, the writer still can control the outcome.. in my authors notes it also tells how I hate his whiny country music but still married almost fifty years. And we help each other as it is a marriage of more give than take. Thanks for finding him innocent. My books of poetry are too precious to ruin by throwing at him. Lol...
Comment from Mario PIERRE
That was terrific. Beautifully woven and developing smoothly until the climax ( which is incumbent on us readers,actually!!) Very humorous and a pleasant read. I like the whole storyline, the setting and the clever use of humour words.
I laughed when the DA said" I urge you to throw the book at him"...!
Great story, Debi!!

Comment from Wayne Fowler
Well done.
'offense.' - Since all you are doing is emphasizing the word 'offense', just as if you had italicized it, the period should be at the end of the sentence.
The husband is not guilty. What if the wife's passion was crocheting, or sewing doll clothes? What if the husband's passion was racoon hunting with dogs in the middle of the night, and wishes your participation, including shooting, dressing out the animal, and skinning it?
For two people to have a successful, loving relationship, they need not be clones.
Sorry for any offense. You can blame the sponsor of a contest that begs opposing positions.
Best wishes - truly.

Ah Wayne, awesome jury member and reviewer. I guess I never wanted him found guilty anyway. I've had 49 years with the guy. And thanks for catching my error and also for catching me right after I added this to my author's notes.
Hahahahahaha! Ok, you caught me. Maybe not all fiction, as my husband really does hate poetry. But it is more of a joke between us than anything. And I hate his whiny old country music. And before you start assuming that I meant all old country music, remember I said, "whiny!" Lol
Wayne, I think you had me figured out from the beginning. Thanks so much for playing along....
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
This is great fun. I love the image and the versatile acronyms! It's definitely an issue which requires much thought here and, having listened to both sides of the argument, I thought the husband didn't have a leg to stand on and the wife emerges victorious (well, she's a woman after all and who cares about sexism in KC!) Good luck in the contest. Best wishes Debbie

Thanks so much Debbie! Hahaha! This court case and complaints were all fiction, but non-fiction was my husband hating poetry and doing the shopping and helps with the cooking and dishes. I know you voted for my side not his, but I purposely wrote this to show the good guy he is, gave him the better attorney and made him look good.
