Hmm, how to offend a rash in ten easy lessons.. hehe.. honestly, it was pretty good stuff. You do western jargon fairly well too. Good luck when the voting comes around, I don't see any reason why it couldn't do well, though.

Lol! Yes, one must be careful about sassing the rashes!..
This is a terrific short western, funny, flash write. You made me smile and I was caught from the get-go.
Good humor.
Good setting/character development/conflict/all that good story stuff.

Your "Western Flash Fiction" Story, Hot Bath, is GREAT! I love the fact that the doctor was a female and had to bathe everyday. That is why she didn't view the body as a sexual thing.

Great story,
I hope you develop it further into a novella or full length. A local librarian told me Westerns were becoming rare. Everything was about modern cowboys etc. Maybe this is a prize winner.

This is just a great story this flash fiction entry and in my mind's eye I saw it go a lot further and ending a happy ending for the drifter with the neck rash and the doctor...thanks for the good time and the chuckle this afternoon - Dinah

This is certainly not your typical Western story. Very interesting and humorous. The dialogue and the Chinaman's dialect were great and sounded realistic. Nothing is wasted in this. You really made every word count. You also did a great job of describing the setting. You build up nicely to the last bit, which is the surprise, about the comely woman in the second tub is a doctor. Well done! judiverse

    Thank you, Brooke.
    'as comely as they come' is a favorite of mine.
    Aside from Etta Place, nekkid schoolmarms are might scary.
