I'm not sure if winning a contest on Fan Story is what we call gambling. I guess it depends on how a person looks at winning a poem contest... good luck in the contest.

Excellent entry for the ~ Family Story ~ (fiction) writing prompt contest. I read the rules... It's crazy. You did well with them.
A stunning and dramatic story in its entirety, though short, it's compelling in structure and presentation. .

LisaMay - Bravo! A fantastic well written story that scores points on many different levels. Do you think that because of your efforts, FS might start giving discounts to teens and seniors? LOL! Stay well - Jerry

I liked your family sports story. It was a fun read. I can certainly understand the expense of entering contests and such. You did an excellent job. Good luck in the contest. Shirley

LOL, a good one for this contest, good luck. I was not sure where you were going with this, but I did think maybe she goes viral on something. But I never thought it would be FanStory. Good job.

I like this story. So many parents try to force their children to excel in the sports or other interests that they are in. But each one has their own gifts and should be encouraged to follow them. I like how you worked in writing on Fan Story as a way to be recognized.

Ha ha ha, you made me smile here Lisa and taking part on Fanstory does encourage us to be glued to our computers, but I have a rule that I have to exercise before hand and only when it is done can I go on the computer, otherwise I would end up like Belinda! A fun post Lisa, love Dolly x

Love this, LisaMay! Good for Belinda. My neighbor recently introduced herself to someone. She told them their family sport is reading. I daresay many of us here are more inclined to sit quietly at our computers than go play a game of tennis.

Congratulation on your win, J. Wish I was as lucky as you. Still, a little polish in the right place can do wonders to make one shine. :) Hope you're doing well and keeping out of trouble on that lsland paradise you call home. Like you know, over here the skies are cold, the wind is strong, and everyone is sick, or getting sick. This is a good Family Fiction Story. Thank you for sharing.

That's a surprise ending that would appeal to Fanstorians! A competitive streak can show up in other things than just sports. But good physical activity could probably help with writing, too! Best wishes in the contest!
