Thank you for taking time to review my very short story. Take care.
Comment from samandlancelot
I liked your 50-word tale. With the scary times of the world, fairy-tales won't do this time, but there was a simpler time Grandpa could share with the girls. What the story was about wasn't as important as what it represented in simplicity.
I liked it.

Thank you for the review, Patricia. You're right, the idea of survival stories and simplicity was then main idea.

I realize 50 words doesn't give you much to work with. I guess that's the challenge. Not all stories can be told in 50 words, in fact, precious few can. I fear there isn't enough here to comprise a story.
But that's just one man's opinion.
I wish you luck.
Peace, Lee

Thank you, Lee. I'll go back and see what I can do about that. The idea was that a story was going to be told.
