A Wife's Plea to Fanstory
Letter46 total reviews
Comment from Marillion
Well, it's Thursday, Mikey, and I DO have stars for you. SIX of them, to be exact. This is absolutely wonderful, my friend, and I have to say the sixer was especially earned when the bedroom rhythm was described, and the enjambment line earned an LOL, a term I hate, but an occurrence I love, especially when I'm alone. It says a lot to get one. And you did.
I would, however, like to inform you that metrical substitutions ARE allowed in metrical verse, and I'm happy demonstrate in some of my work so that your wife might experience some variety in your rhythm. Perhaps then you'll get the request to Fanstory her, used as a verb, of course! :)

Such a rogue. Of course, that would free me up for more reviewing....hmmmm. The problem I am having now is how to respond to more than half the reviews that think that she wrote this. Hahaha. And most of those are sympathetic! Well, thank you very much sir. I guess I will return to slave over my "serious writing" that goes unnoticed. -sigh- mikey

They seriously think that? Sigh...
Comment from CR Delport
Haha, this is so funny. But I have to admit, very true. I used to spent way too much time here too. Now I try to restrict my serious review for people who review my work, and the others I just do a quick fluffy to get the dollars, or maybe a membership pump :) Great read. Tell your wife we understand her pain :)

Comment from seaglass
Very, very funny. My partner would agree. Do you think we need writers' anonymous (WA) or Fan Story Anonymous (FSA)?
We could all get together, stand up and say "Hello, I am a writing addict." but we would probably just start reviewing each others' crap.
Or maybe our poor mates would have comfort with "Writeanon"
This is a fun piece. PS, I think birthday poems are cool.

Hahaha. That is so true. We would end up reviewing each others stories. That is too funny. "Hi, I'm Mike, I'm a write-aholic."
"That is so cliché. Perhaps, "greetings, they call me Mike, it is said I write too much" just for variety." mikey

This afternoon, my inner adult, pealed my fingers from my keyboard long enough to make jello, but my inner writer overcame her and now I am back.
So, today I got 4 reviews, right? One said there is too much dialog from the characters and they other said not enough. ":)", of the other 2, one said font was unsatisfactory the other complimented the layout as pleasant. ":)". That's the first time that has happened, "chuckle" guess it is getting me use to how editors will differ.
-
It is frustrating though because we are listening. I have conflicting opinions from people whose opinions I value. That is fun. HAhaha. I guess then I go with my opinion.

Tthat's what I'm thinkin' (smile)

Love the attitude of this wife in her opening statement
I sympathize that Mikey is trying to use his poems as an excuse not to spend a few bucks on a toaster oven LOL
I'm nearly dying with laughter as he daDUMS his way through lovemaking and claims to be enjambing the hell out of his wife LOL
Oh, the assonance comment has me happy I woke up in the middle of the night with nothing better to do than read :-)
This is great fun. Very witty :-) Brooke

Pleased that you enjoyed it. Has always, something just for fun gets a much better response than something slaved over for hours. Hahaha. A nice break though! mikey

Oh My! Mrs Mikey I feel you have joined the ranks of Fanstory deseted spouses club.
I love your honesty and "tell it as it is" style of writing.
Every forgotten spouse can relate to this delightful fun-filled tale written to so cleverly use common writing terms.
A refreshing break from sombre and sad.

daDum-daDum ... This is star day ... my Irish boy! my Irish boy! I reread this beauty. I never laughed so hard in my pathetic life! I might have to use my mom's oxygen bottle, I never knew. I can't see how you could of made this up, it's ridiculous funny. daDum ...daDum, I may need a pace-maker. That last line about your eyes rolling back in your head sealed the deal. I'm in cardiac arrest and tomorrow is my birthday! This is the best gift a man like me cold get! A member cent pump, sounds a little perverted to me, I hit the floor. You're my hero on fan story, tell your wife about that. Without you, it would be quite boring. And making your family call you the Lion King was way too much for me to swallow. I feel responsible for encouraging that tittle. Tell her it was wackydo's fault.

Hahaha. I think I might get in trouble if she sees this. The last thing she said to me was, "You aren't going to post that are you? I don't want anyone thinking I wrote that." Fortunately she is tired of seeing me "Fanstory" my life away. So, hopefully she won't notice. I have to force her to read most of my stuff as it is!! mikey

My bad , I thought she caught you, boomer. You weren't joking, you stay up late as I but I'm in the central time zone, you'r two hours earlier. I redone Gothom City, it's lots better but I WANT WIN.
-
No sense to the voting. I win when I have no chance and I lose when I am positive I am going to win. That's funny. I hope everyone thinks she wrote that. Hahaha. I will make her a recurring writer slamming Mikey. Love it.

Had me convinced, you quite crafty. Yeah, sometimes poems that are bilge-sucking wins the day. Being female has advantages. Word Girl crucified me on my review. my buddy, reviews don't bother me ... I laugh
